Catching Sheep.

A sheep should never be caught by
its wool. This method not only
causes the animal unnecessary pain,
but in the case of fat sheep, that are
to be killed, it does much harm to
the joint of mutton that lies under
meath where the wool was pulled. 1t
causes dark bruise just in the same
manner as our bodies become discol-
orad from being bruised. A Califor-
MIA sheepman advises that the proper
way to catch sheep is to take it
either by the hind leg just above the
Sambrel joint, or by putting the hand
underneath It's jaw or neck. In using
crook it is important that the sheep
are not caught below the gambrel
joint as injury to the leg is liable
to result from this.-NeW England

do much to keep the hog in good con-
ditiOn, preserving the animals vital
ity and enabling it to fight off dis
ease, such rations would be of no
avail if the animals were surrounded
by everything conducive to the dread
disease, such as a filthy pen and a
more filthy yard, damaged grain for
food and impure drinking water. At
ter an experience Of more than quar-
ter of a century in swine-raising, | be-
lieve that cholera is due wholly to
filthy quarters and the other condi-
tons just mentioned. True, the dis
ease is contagious or more properly
infectious, but even then few hogs
will be afflicted if they have been
properly fed aud housed. The feeding
of roots is advisable and by all means
practice it, but do not consider it a
cure for cholera or even a proven

Bai1ing Shredded Corn.

Since it has been demonstrated that
corn slower is economically shredded
much of this work is being done and
it has been noticed that considera bic
of this shredded slower is being put
on to the market in sections where
considerable feed has to be bought.
Of course this baling is done by men
who are familiar with baling hay,
but there is no reason why the farm
er cannot do it himself il he is To-
Gated near market, where there is
likely to be a demand for the stover
put up in such a manner. Where
there is a shortage Of the hay crop or
Of crops used by stock as rOughage
there is likely to be q market for
the baled slower.
Care must be used, however, to
have it properly cured before it is
baled. 1t should be cured in the
shock as much as possible and then
finished in the barn. After the stow
err is shredded it will usually sweat
some and when this is over it is fit
to bale. 1t is advised that one look
into the conditions near at home ard
see what the opportunities are for 4
