LAMBS MUST BE FAT,

whatever Pays IL Half Done, Pays
Better II Thoroughly Done.
It is somewhat remarkable to notice
what number Of half fat lambs find
their way to the Chicago market these
days, says Wool Markets and Sheep.
Such state Of affairs should not exist
Putting half fat lambs on the market
in mistake.for fat ones is one sure way
Of throwing profit to the winds, for it
in the latter half Of the feeding proc
ess that the profits lie. Half fat NUT
ton or lamb is very inferior in quality
as compared to the ripe article, it being
decidedly tougher and insipid. Sending
a load Of fat lambs to a commission
house with the idea Of expecting it
to remit market topping returns for
them is scarcely fair proposition. A
farmer that would expect large profits
from field Of corn cut in half ripe
state or condition would be adjudged
lunatic, and we are almost tempted to
say the lamb feeder that would mar
ket his lambs in a similar condition is
little less so. Lambs should be put on
the market either as fat lambs or az
feeders. There should be no interme-
date stage. True, through unforeseen
circumstances and sometimes poor cal
culations the feeder occasionally finds
himself short of feed and dislikes the
idea of buying additional foodstuffs
wherewith to put the finishing touches
on his lambs. Again, he may run short
Of money, but this should not be any
excuse for his sending his lambs to
market in an unfinished condition, as
reliable commission houses are always
ready to advance him money on his
lambs and give him such treatment as
becomes business men. True, there are
those in the commission business that
may pinch" where they have the
chance, but then they are the kind that
do not long remain in the commission
business. The shipper will get every
cent as much for his consignments to
the reliable commission house that has
advanced him the money wherewith
to finish his lambs as he would if he
were under no obligation to some. OF
course the usual customs consistent
with conservative banking must be
reckoned with. One thing certain is
that IT it pays to feed a bunch of lambs
into half fat condition it pays con-
s1derably more to finish them even if
financial aid has to be sought to bring
about the desired results.

On niger In Nigh tmares.

II believe that dreams sometimes
kill" said Il prominent specialist on
nervous diseases the other day. "Of
course don't know that they are ia
tai, but l have every reason to think
so. l had woman patient whom l
was treating for a number of complica-
tons, including weak heart. She
could not bear any excitement, and l
often warned against exposing herself
to sudden fright. She complained of
having nightmare and said she often
woke up in state of terrible fright so
weak that she could not call for help.
One morning she was found dead in
bed with an expression of abject terror
on her face. l have no doubt that she
died from fright produced by night
mare.
persons subject to nightmare who
have weak hearts should avoid Sleep
ing on the back. They should lie on
the right side and have the right arm
extended so they will wake up if they
turn over. Most Nightmares are the
result of sleeping on the back or the
left side where the heart is so COM
pressed that it has little room for free
action"

SACRIFICING Pastures.

There are many things that we do
not value until they are gone. and one
Of them is good blue grass pasture.
says Stockman and Farmer. Some Of
those who plowed up their old sod last
year to get corn crop to feed cattle
are already repenting. They have
neither the grass nor the corn, as the
cattle road to the corn market has
proved a very rough one. A long es-
tablished blue grass pasture is too rare
and too good thing to be sacrificed.
1t should be disturbed only because
there is no other way to avoid it and
farm profitably. One Of our greatest
needs in this country Is to know more
about pastures-how to get, to improve
and to keep them. Then we would bet.
ter appreciate their value and not has.
tily turn down something that it takes
generation to bring back.

Feeding Value of Johnson Grass.

oAuC "a OoAASOA UrttSSs
A Texas correspondent writes to the
Breeders Gazette:
what is the feeding value of John
son grass hay and at what stage of
growth should it be cut? How does 1t
compare with millet and sorghum for
feed?"
Charles e. Bessey Of the Nebraska
experiment station makes this answer:
This is one of the fairly nutritious
grasses, but it is not among the very
best, like Kentucky blue grass or the
clOvers. 1t ranks with timothy and
orchard grass. AS it works up into
hay more easily it is better than millet
for that purpose and for many reasons
is to be preferred to sorghum unless
we take into account the seeds which
In millet and sorghum are very nutri-
t1Ous. AS this is coarse stemmed
grass it should be cut as early as pos
