Some Conclusions on Sheep Feeding.
AS a result of some feeding expert
ments made at the Iowa station, Prof.
w. J. Kennedy holds the following
opinion: Corn at SO cents per bushel
is a more economical grain to feed
sheep on grass than oats at % cents
or barley at 40 cents. Mutton can
be produced much more economically
during the summer months on grass
alone or grain and grass than it can
be produced by feeding grain and
hay during the fall and winter
months. The feeder can oftentimes
purchase habitat lambs during the
latter part of April or the first part
of May, and, by grazing them for
from 40 to 60 days, realize a good
profit, due to the advance in market
prices during the latter part of June
and the first of July over those ruling
in April and the first part of May.
Sheep can be fattened economically
on grass and corn or on grass alone.
Soy beans, on account of their high
protein content, should not form the
sole grain ration in conjunction with
clover hay.

Feeding in Open Sheds or Barns.


The results of the tests on feeding
in barns and open sheds at the Mis-
souri, station came as a surprise to
those that have so long declared that
beef steers should be fed in warm
barns. The station entered into an
extensive correspondence with feed
ers throughout the state asking their
opinion in the matter Only 10 per
cent favored feeding in barns; SO per
cent practicing feeding in open sheds,
and % per cent in open lots. Four
tests were made. the steers each
time being fed similar ratiOns of corn
and hay. In the first test the average
daily gain of steers fed in barns was
LAY; of those fed in sheds 1.72. In
the second trial the gains were for
those fed in barns 1.85 and for those
fed in open sheds %, while similar
gains made by steers fed in an open
lot were 2.29 pounds per day. In the
third test steers fed in barns gained
on an average 1877 per head daily;
those fed in the open sheds 1.69, and
those fed in the open lots 1.78. In
the fourth test the cattle fed in barns
gained 1.S3 per day; those fed in
open sheds gained 1.97, and those fed
in the open lots gained 200. This
showed that barn feeding. at least in
the latitude of Columbia, was not a
profitable operation.

ignorant Poultry Raisers Fail.


John H. Robinson: When one IN
dertakes poultry keeping the chances
are against his success. But. unfor-
tunately, nearly every beginner thinks
himself or herself the talented and
favored or exceptionally industrious
person who is sure to succeed, and
therefore neglects to take the neces-
sary precautions to avoid failures.
With rare exceptions those engaging
in poultry keeping on any consider
able scale begin without any adequate
practical knowledge of the conditions,
requirements and methods of the bus
mess. If they happen to have abun-
dant capital to carry on the business
until they have learned in the costly
school of experience what they ought
to have known before investing a
dollar, they must finally make sue
cess of it, but the greater part of the
original investment and also OF the
expenses for several years may have to
be charged of to cost of acquiring ex-
perience. The most serious cases are
those of people with limited means
who go into poultry keeping, ex-
pecting it to give them their living
almost from the start. AS far as my
observation goes the greater number
of persons who once become deeply in
terested in poultry, and decide to ven
ture into it will take bad advice in
preference to good every time. 1 sup
pose this is because the bad advice is
more in line with their hopes and
wishes The daily care of poultry is
neither as easy as some think it, nor
as hard as others make it. 1t is easy
when you know how, and it is neither
a long nor a difficult task to know
how. There is a great difference be-
tween doing work we'll and doing it
profitably. Permanent success in any
line of work depends, as a rule, upon
doing it both we'll and prodtably.

Feeding Young and Old Hens.

SS0InQ young ana OlQ F7CnS.
On the ordinary farm it is not con-
venient to separate the hens into two
flocks of old and young, and the
farmer will find it necessary to feed
some general purpose ration. This
should consist of not too large a
quantity Of carbohydrates, combined
with a considerable quantity of pro-
TEN. But the farmer that keeps sew
eral hundred hens can well afford to
separate his flock into two yards of
old and young. The young and grow
ing birds can use a great deal of corn
without becoming fat. Being active
they also burn up in their lungs more
fat than will older birds. There is
little danger Of getting them too fat
the first winter, especially if they
have an opportunity to exercise by
scratching The old hens must be
fed more carefully, and care be taken
to restrict their ration of corn. We
have seen many flock of hens rem
dered improbable in winter by too
heavy feeding of corn. 1t must be
understood that the feeding OF any
ration excessively rich in carbohy-
drates would have the same result,
but there are few rations on the farm
so rich in Carbohydrates as corn and
there is little likelihood that these
rations would be fed. For both old
and young hens a feed OF soft food
daily in winter is very good; it will
keep their digestive organs in good
condition and lessen the losses from
indigestion in the spring.
The Egg and Poultry Trade of 1902.
Since April when storage eggs sold
as low as 141z cents per dozen, prices
have been good and well sustained.
Sixteen cents was freely paid in May
and the early part of Juna. Then
there was a drop OF half a cent, but
later q revival and steady advance
until now, at the close OF the year,
fresh eggs are bringing 26 cents and
storage eggs 1914 cents. Fewer eggs
have been placed in cold storage than
in 1901.
The feature of the poultry season
has been the scarcity OF fowls and
high prices realized, in some cases al
most double those of 1901. A cold
wet summer interfered with the rear
ing Of young turkeys and not more
than so per cent of the usual crop
was grown At the close Of the year
dressed turkeys at Wholesale were
bringing 171k to Is cents, against 8
to 10 cents in 1901, and dressed chick.

How | Get Winter Eggs.


From Farmers Review: Our ex-
perience in getting winter eggs has
only been with Bluffs and Barred
Rocks. The first thing is to have
pure bred stock, as no definite result
can be expected from miscellaneous
crosses. For Barred Rocks the chicks
should be Matched the last two weeks
of March, or the first half of April,
but the Buff Rocks may be Matched as
late as the middle of May. Then care
should be taken to keep them grow
ing from the time they leave the shell.
Above ALL keep them free from lice.
When the time arrives for placing
the stock in winterquarters, Gull out
all the drones, and those inclined to
take on fat too readily, for lazy hen
like a lazy poultryman is not sue
cess. Do not crowd the stock. FIT
teen to twenty hens are enough in
one pen. See that the house is warm.
Keep the floor covered about six inch
es deep with straw or some other lit
ter. This should be renewed about
once a week or often enough to keep
the house clearly. For our morning
feed we use the Andrews prepared
food, made by a company at Ma
con, Ill. The foundation of this feed
is ground oats and corn, with some
secret ingredients. This is a great
egg producer. We mix this feed with
milk, boiled vegetables, meat scraps,
blood meal or any table scraps. We
give what will be eaten up in fifteen
to twenty minutes. We then scatter
wheat in the litter, just enough to
keep them busy till supper time. We
then give them good feed of corn.
In real, cold weather this should be
warmed. Give plenty Of milk and
fresh water. For an APPETIZER feed
any kind of vegetables. Last but
not least, do not forget the grit and
the busting place.-A. A. Anderson,

COLUMBUS, Ohio, June 7.--Columbus
got away in front today, but was over
taken ard beaten out by st. Paul III TIE
fourth inning. In this round the
Saints showed a 81 eat Familiarity with
a wet ball, and drove out four clean
hits. Higgins get a very scratchy one
but it did a lot Of damage. Then Arndt
fell down on a bunt of Kelleys. When
" agner at last threw Shannon out five
rims had been scored and the visitors
were far ahead.
The lead was increased in the fifth.
Shaefer picked out a high one and
sent it over left field fence. Kelley
doubled sharply to the left in the
sixth. He was sacrificed to third by
Sullivan and scored on Ferguson's very
safe rap to right.
Just as soon as The Saints had gone
out, one two, three, in the seventh, a
drenching rain storm began operations
and the game ended then and there.
For Columbus Gleason opened the
game by doubling along the third base
line. Sullivan threw him out when he
tried to steal. Arndt hunted in the
second with two out, and then jack
son made a good caL ture of Raymar' s
high one.
