Managing swarming In Out apiaries.

Where spring lambs are to be the
chief crop, II is necessary to make
summer preparations Tor them. with
the lambs born in the late fall and
midwnter, II should be the aim Of
the grower to provide proper food for
them Good farming crops raised In
the summer should keep the ewes in
good condition up TO the time If the
breeding season, and when the lambs
arrive they will also have an abund-
ance of food. If one must go to work
and buy all this food the profits in
spring lamb growing will be discount
ed. Glover or alfalfa hay should be
raised In abundance. A good crop of
either will save many dollar later.
AS the lambs are to he fed cracked
corn generously. II Is necessary that a
corn crop should be added that of the
hay crop.
The ewes themselves should be fed
freely and generously to make them
do their best. They should hava in
the fall and early winter good ration
of clover hay and shelled corn aid
bran in the morning, and corn aud
| cowpea ensilage at noon. In the
evening they should have crn fodder,
some grain and some mangles or 9th
er root crop. Such a ration fed sys-
tematically will produce excellent re-
suits. The ewes will prove coed
mothers, and bring into the world the
finest spring lambs.
BY good feeding Il is possible in
time to secure flock of ewes which
will produce many twins. The ewes
which show a tendency TO produce
twins should be carefully selected
and fed separately. BY breeding
carefully in this way the profits of
the work will be nearly doubled. But
II should he remembered that ewes
not well fed cannot bring into the
world twins in healthy condition, nor
can they rear them successfully after
they are born.
Consequently perfect health of the
ewes is the first great step toward
success. Unless one raises his win
ter feed in abundance he will not give
the sheep the amount and quality of
food that they demand for this pur-
pose. When we have to purchase
food in the market we feed so eco
nomically that we are bound to de-
prive the animals of their rightful
allowance. Provision for next sea-
sons spring lamb should. therefore,
be made now.-E. p. Smith, in Am.
