For Wyoming Lambs.

The experiments that have beer
conducted at the Wyoming expert.
ment station, in sheep raising have
been watched with unusual interest
by sheepmen of the Black Hills, as
the conditions are practically the
same for both states. The expert
ments were made primarily for the
purpose OF seeing what growth can
be made by lambs on the prairie hay
with corn AZ feed. Two separate
experiments we're made, one using
alfalfa and corn for food and the
other wild hay and corn, q compare
son being made. 1t was found that
the lambs fed upon alfalfa and corn
made more flesh, but it was also as
certained that the wild hay and
corn put on sufficient flesh to make
money on market feeding.
The sheep were turned out on the
range and are given only the crud-
est kind of shelter 10 order that the
conditions might be as nearly like.
the range as possible. 1t has not
been the custom generally for sheep
men of the Hills to feed either wild
or tame hay during the winter UNI
less the weather is cold or stormy,
but the experiments Of Wyoming
may change this some what. In
stead of the sheepmen sending their
young stock east for f~attening pur-
poses they a hereafter put up
enough wild hay or alfalfa and can
ship in corn, which will more than
pay when fed out as a supplement
to the range feed. The sheep in
dustry in the Black Hills is rapidly
gaining, standing next to the cattle
business now.
