Growing Scarcity of Sheep.

A Colorado sheep raiser says that
when he first went into the lamb feed
ing business there was about one sheep
per capita for all the population OF the
United States Now there is only one
half sheep per capita. The high prices
which mutton has commanded the past
few years and the narrowing limits
of free government lands has led to
wholesale slaughter There is real
shortage in both sheep and lambs.
And the high price of wool is also
tempting sheepmen to save their eve
lambs and to refuse all offers. Even
old ewes which he bought last year In
Utah at 1925 per head are now held
at SO, and no guaranty as to quality or
weight. He does not know today where
he could buy 1000 ewes such as he
bought last year, and he is familiar
with the situation in all the country
and knows the largest flockmasters OF
the United States.

Since my previous visit, Mr.. Paul
Shellenberger has been employed by the
Association as their head bookkeeper.
Mr.. Shellenberger is very thorough in

The financial affairs of the Pacific

which Will cure it in the first stage
without leaving any trace of the dis
ease, but of course after the cankers
form they are likely to leave the mouth
irregular or out of shape. But If you
will apply the above preparation to
the sow's udder before the pigs suck
they will not have sore mouths. If a
SOW has raised sore mouthed pigs, she
is likely to raise another litter of the
same kind unless something is done
about it,
Securing is another drawback III
raising pigs. which causes a great deal
of trouble and loss. Iteis complaint
that will knock good pig out and
make scrub or corpse of him about
as quick as anything we know of. 1t
is, however, trouble that we have
always found easily handled. For this
trouble we cOnfine the sow with her
litter in a small and comfortable place,
with a fresh, dry bed and plenty of
it. We take off most of the feed from
the SOW and give her from ten drops
to twO-thirds of a teaspOonful OF car
bolic acid in her drinking water twice
day, to which treatment scours will
usually yield in twenty-four to eighty
hours. 1t is important to keep the
sow and her litter quiet, as exercise
will increase the securing. When u.s.
ing carbolic acid it is important to
know the strength of it, and good
way to buy it is in the pound bottles,
as it is put up at the factory, for when
YOU buy it in small quantities it is
always diluted. Druggists cannot deal
it out in small quantities without di
luting it, as it is crystalized in it's
pure state. But you can buy it by
the pound for 80 or 60 cents. Warm it
and add one-ninth per cent water and
it will stay liquid and be always ready
for use,- and you know just what you
are using"

Feeding Cattle on Grass.

Experience shows that greater gains
in pounds of beef with less grain can
be made on grass than with grain and
rOughage and with less labor involved.
If corn is fed it should be soaked, and
although less quantity is necessary,
the price is relatively higher in sum-
mer than in winter Grain and grass
finished steers show a greater shrink
age in going to market than when fin
ished on grain and rough feed. How
ever, summer feeding of grain with
grass, to animals of proper age, Is
coming into popular favor and our
best farmers are beginning to appre-
ciate their grass lands as never be-
fore
TwO-year-Old cattle can be fattened
more quickly than yearlings and year
lings more quickly than calves. This
indicates that there is more need of
holding cattle in the dry lot than to
feeding yearlings under the same con-
ditions, because the latter will not
bear so much forcing to finish. And
there is a greater difference between
yearlings and calves. Grass is one of
natures own foods and every year
worth better prices. The fattening Of
calves and yearlings is increasing each
year. This practice should be encOur-
aged, it is also one to be taken up
guardedly by inexperienced feeders.
Calves and yearlings will make as
large gains on grass alone in summer
as on roughage and grain in winter
In feeding calves between eight and
fourteen months of age with and with
out grain, it has been found that the
~, in, in, 20 will ROT o1 "a
extra cost of feed and labor. Where
stock are fed grain with grass, it Is
economy to provide darkened sheds
during fly time. Such feed should be
given as will keep individuals making
a steady gain. Automatic grain feed
ers should be placed in the pastures.
Such feeders can be made on the farm.
Place them on runners so they can be
moved from place to place in the pas
ture.
Beef-making and Dairying.
What price will pay for pure-bred
sires and dams of the different breeds
or live stock?" is the question asked by
many people of to-day. There are
great many public sales held all over
the country and in nearly every sale
there are always few poor individu-
ais put in to sell. Why is this? One
good reason is that at nearly every
sale appear some breeders who are
looking for cheap breeding stock to
establish a good herd and keep it
going at the same rate. With some
breeders anything is acceptable so it
has pedigree, and some farmers who
can afford to do better want to buy
cheap, whether the animal is a good
individual or not
There are many farmers over the

Nugget Chain Valued at $500
Recovered in PaWnshop

A diamond studded watch and gold
nugget chain owned by Edward Wiley
of the Glenn house on East Fifth
street were recovered by the police yes
terday afternoon in a pawn shop on
Main street, and N. H. Dorman was
arrested on a charge Of having stolen

Dorman, who is a gardener was
arrested by Detectives Leon and Tala-
nantes yesterday morning while he
was at breakfast at the Glenn house,
where he has been residing for the last
three months. When accused of hav-
ing taken the property the police say
the prisoner confessed and told them
where they would be able to find the
property which he had pawned for $40.
Wiley, who is the proprietor of the
Glenn house, valued the stolen prop
erty at 5000. He says he kept the watch
and chain in his trunk with two other
watches and did not miss them until
Tuesday morning.

At the Grand

The Grand has descended from the
classical drama" of last week into a
regular thriller Of the oldtime type.
It is good to see this descent from the
pedestal Of the "high class" In thrill
lers the Grand certainly gives more
for the minute in genuine nerve rack
ing sensation than can be procured
anywhere else.
This week 1t is Confessions Of a
Wife," She does all the confessing in
one short scene, fortunately, and the
rest Of the play is crammed with such
exciting spectacles as the LADY villain
hurting the wronged wife's child from
a cliff, or an express train" caught
II, a regular Wyoming blizzard. In
short, there was not dull minute in
the confessions, the comedy, mostly in
the hands of Auerbach, Spear and Hope
Mayne, being unusually good.
Ethel Clifton, as the wife, gave a
good performance almost free from
rant, and Buhler, in colorless role,
was acceptable.
