|HUSBANDRY -

For the warmest part Of the south
ewes may commence lambing in Feb
ruary, but for the most northern por-
tons the 1st of April is soon enough.
Commonly 1t should not be until the
ewes can get a fair supply of pasture
or other green food says Samuel Arch
er in Progressive Farmer. But if the
ewes are well fed on bran mash
with roots or ensilage, the best re-
suits will follow and the highest per
cent of lambs will be saved while the
ewes are yet kept in their winter quar-
tiers.
The ewes period of CESSATION is five
months, $50 to 153 days, and the ram
should be admitted to the ewes accord
ingly. as the lambing period is desired.
Carefully guard the ewes from all
rams until the coupling period arrives.
4 good strong, healthy ram-no other
should at all be used-properly fed and
managed, is sufficient for fifty ewes.
BY standing the ram'-that Is, using
a "teaser'-and drawing out the ewes
that are in season each day and allow
ing only one service TO each eve the
stock ram will serve a hundred Within
thirty days just as we'll.
This stock ram standing service may
not pay for a lot of fifty cheap ewes,
but where the fifty are high grade and
valuable or where there are hundred
or more cheap ewes or where two
neighbors having fifty each may join
together in buying stock ram, 1t will
pay for the extra work. In so doing
one may spend the money required for
two rams In purchasing one that is
much more valuable to him. There IS
no danger of securing the service or
a ram that is too good for any lot or
ewes If he is to Ue turned with the
ewes, it will pay 90 paint his breast
with. say, venetian r"d every morning
and in the evening draw out all the
ewes he has marked in serving and put
them in a pasture quite remote from
the unServed flock, where they will
not attract the rams attention next
day. This careful separation of the
served from the unserved should be
observed whether the ram is stood
or turned out. However, care should
be taken that the served ewes after
twelve days from service have
chance of second service and continu-
ously so for from two to four weeks.
Change of Food For the Flock.
There is nothing so desirable or use
ful for sheep as changes of food, If
only for a day or two. Like all other
| weak nerved animals. sheep require
| frequent stimulation. This may be af-
forded by changes of food or pasture
| even a change of lodging is comfort
to a sheep. Removal from one shed
to another especially if the new place
has been nicely cleaned up, does a lot
! of good.

Sheep on the Farm.

Bean vines, which do not seem to
find favor with cattle, will be eaten
readily by sheep, and they will con
sumo anything in the shape of proven
der that is fit for food, says Wool Mar
kets and Sheep. On the pasture they
are industrious in seeking as delica-
cies young weeds and other growth
that would take possession of the field
but for them, also making the land
more fertile with their drOppings,
which are uniformly scattered and
trampled in. A dozen sheep on farm
should cost the farmer almost nothing
for food.
