sive COntrivance, recon mended
BY Highest Authority.

One Of ur subscribers asks for a de-
scription OF q good sheep rack In which
to feed his sheep. This is a very i'm.
portant subject in connection with the
care of sheep, inasmuch as 1t has to dc
n only with the economical use of the
feed grown on the farm. but also with
keeping the fleece Of the sheep clean and
rack should be used for the feeding Of
any kind of feed containing chaff Of
dirt that will permit the sheep to poke
its bead into the feed or that will allow
the chaff, dirt or broken leaves to filtei
through cracks and fall onto the sheep
Amy such dirt in the wool Injuries the
sale of it very materially, not merely be.

pigs. young cows and horses when |
work them. feed either dry or scalded.
