It is worth a great deal for the head

his hand cleverly' in keeping up re-

that can be done at odd times that

of the home-maker to have surround

The manner and regularity OF feed
ing sheep will determine to consid-
erable degree the quality of the wool
1t isthe opinion of our best shepherds
that the wool is tough or tender ac-
cording to the thriftiness of the sheep.
While the sheep are being well 1eo
they produce a strong wool. Now let
conditions change, and the sheep pass
through a period when they are pr
poorly fed, and the wool that is made
during that time becomes weak in ten
sile strength. So weak places appear
in the wool. This is plea for the
continuous good feeding of sheep. The
theory has not. so far as we know
been proved by any elaborate expert
ments, but It is belief strongly In
trenehed in the minds of practical men
Moreover, it is in accord with reason

ReforestiRx.

In the older agricultural states no
thought was ever given to re-forestry
when the original forests were de-
stroyed. The timber was OF no mar
ketable value then. and was a cum
berer of the earth. But now the end
is reached on many farms, and every
effort should be made to grow trees
of value, such as hardy naples, locusts.
walnuts, etc. OF course plat OF lana
that will produce paying crop OF the
staples will be more valuable for that
than for q forest crop. but there are
spots. ON most farms that may well be
planted TO trees, and the little thickets
of an acre orAso will prove in time to
be pleasant, shady places for cattle to
spend the heated midday hours. In q
few years they become resort for the
seekers after poles. and later on, this
or the next generation will cut them

wEANLING FoALs,
Treatment That should Produ
Good Growth During the
First Winter.

1t would probably be correct to say
that weanling foals are usually under
rather than over-fed. On the SUPPOSE
ton that they have been taught to
eat grain along with the mare before
weaving, the following treatment
should. produce good growth during
the first winter:
Feed ground or crushed oats and
bran in about equal parts by weight,
and as the winter season advances
rather increase the proportion of oats.
Give the foal about all of this kind
of food that it will eat with relish,
and it will eat considerable quantity.
1t will probably be preferable to feed
the oats and bran dry in the morn
ing. but the evening feed will be i'm
proved il the oats can be boiled or
steamed and mixed with the bran in a
mash. and if little molasses can be
added the colt will grow all the better.
However. we do not favor feeding very
large quantities of this food to grow
ing animals, especially If they are in
tended for breeding purposes.
The fodder part of the ration should
consist il possible of good hay. Glover
is rather to be preferred to timothy,
but IL the two are mixed the results
will be satisfactory. A part of it should
be mixed with small quantity of the
cut fodder. 1t will cheaper the ration
If good corn fodder can be fed along
| with the hay. 1t is not q good plan
to feed much corn, but small amount
fed occasionally at noon in alterna-
ton with ground barley may serve q
good purpose. Thezscorn is better
cracked and fed with the bran. III II
addition to the above a few roots car
be fed per day, either raw or cooked
and mixed with the mash the diges
| ton of the foal will be benefited there
by. Such feeding may be looked upol
as being decidedly liberaI OF cours
1t is, but it is just such feeding tina
produces the best type of animals. A
a general thing, weaving foals Sre un
der-fed the first winter. and this ar
rests their development. and to som
extent ninders siz9. that otflerwis
