Finishing Western Wethers ON Grass
and Grain For Summer Market.

and Grain For Summer Market.
Farmers throughout the central
states annually feed and finish for
market thousands Of sheep. During
the past decade a great many farmers
have adopted the policy of purchasing
western lambs and yearlings during
the months of September, October, No
yember and December with the inten-
ton of feeding them from 60. to 120
DAYS. depending upon the condition Of
lambs, markets, ETC., and then selling
them at an advance in price sufficient
to return nice profit on the investment.
Many sheep feeders claim that one
wear with another when sheep or
lambs are fed on grain and hay that
the feeder must have margin of at
least / per cent per pound between the
buying and selling price to warrant
profit. A careful study of the cost of
producing gains on sheep and lambs
at this and other stations would in0i-
cate that a margin of l cent per pound
between the buying and selling price
is not always necessary.
In summarizing the results Of five
trials at Wisconsin, Minnesota and
Michigan stations where corn and hay
were used valuing hay at S. per ton
and corn at 33 cents per bushel, each
pound of gain was made at cost of
AZ cents. At this station gains have
been made on grass and corn at cost
of less than 2 cents per pound, in
%b0 oh h0x
been sold without any advance over
the buying price and a nice profit
realized.
When feed is low in price. the feeder
can work on a small margin, and vice
versa. Lambs can be handled on a
much closer margin than yearlings or
older sheep, due to the fact that the
younger the animal the better it can
utilize it's feed. Thus more economical
gains are made. More economical
gains can also be made during the
summer months on grass alone and
grass and grain than can be made dur
ing the fall and winter months on
grain and hay.
A careful study of the markets dur
ing the. past few years will reveal the
fact that sheep and lambs are usually
lower in price during the latter part
Of April and the first of May than they
are during the early part of July be-
fore what is commonly termed grass
stock arrives on the market. This is
due to the fact that most Of the west
ern fed lambs are marketed during the
month of April and the early part of
May. Thus there is usually period
of from six to eight weeks duration
when good sheep are at premium as
the native lambs do not usually arrive
before the middle of July or first of
August. This is factor which the
feeder should consider. for oftentimes
a heavy run will cause a sharp cut in
prices when the half fat lambs can be
purchased at a price which will war
rant the feeder shipping them back
to the farm for forty or sixty days
run on good blue grass pasture, whers,
they will not only increase in weight,
but also in value per pound.-W. j.

SITUATION MORE COMPLICATED NOW.

The strike situation in Paducah is
today more serious than ii has been
since the walkout occurred nearly
two weeks ago. Yesterday afternoon
the committee from the carpenters
union and the one from the contract
ors' union met at 4 O'Clock, and the
carpenters refused the proposition of
the contractors, made in the forenoon,
which was that they be paid what
they were worth, from 20 to SO cents
an hour.
The carpenters then demanded &c. 80
for eight hours work. which was q re-
duction of 80 cents day ON the orig
inai demand. The contractors prompt
ly refused this. and as it was what the
carpenters said was their ultima
tum," the contractors say that nego-
tiations are of for good.
Last night there was called meet
ing Of the Central Labor Union, and a
report was made by the carpenters
committee, which reported that it had
failed to reach any agreement.
Central Labor Union then voted its
moral and financial support to the
striking carpenters, painters and
,eamstors, and this will entitle them
90 tho IS o week from the strike fund.
Just what form the moral" sup
port will take seems to be uncertnin.

said it did not mean sympathetic
strike OF other unions.

suit of the final inability to settle
the strike. there is likely to be n strike
