HOW TO neasure a stack.

The number of feet required for
ton of hay depends on the height of
the stack, on the kind Of hay, on the
season in which it Is put up and on
the amount Of moisture it contains.
According to an exchange, the only
way is to find out the number of feet
in a stack and then how many cubic
feet of that kind Of hay it takes to
weigh ton. The amount varies from
a cube of seven feet to cube of eight
feet, or from 343 to 512 cubic feet. On
the bottom Of the stack, particularly
If 1t be large and well settled, 343 cubic
feet might weigh ton, while on top
of the stack it might require 512 cubic
feet
Usually on square stack sixteen
feet wide, carried up straight as far as
possible and then topped out or cover
ed, 1t will require from 400 to 450
cubic feet

A Remarkable Woman.

In the edition of Thomas Pennant's
"Tour In Scotland" printed at War
rington by w. Eyers in 1174, among
other fine engravings is a portrait Of
1.-THE Old Countess of Desmond" in
Dupplin castle, n. B., and particulars
Of her age are given in the text. This
portrait represents her at the age of
100, firm mouthed, strongly marked
woman who lived to the great age of
40. She was the daughter of Fitz-
gerald of Drumana, in Ireland, and
married in the reign of Edward ~.
James, fourteenth earl of Desmond.
She was in England in the same reign
and danced at court with the king s
brother, the Duke of Gloucester, and
died in the reign of James 1. The year
before her death, when 139, she took a
journey to London to solicit relief from
the king, the Desmond house" having
been reduced to a state of poverty.
Francis Bacon in his History of Life
and Death" states that this lady did
dentise twice or thrice, casting her old
teeth and other coming in their place"

Going Too Long without Food.

The evil habit of going too long with
out food is one from which many peo-
pie suffer in the present hurrying age.
Men sit in their offices. women rush
about at their shopping, and both be-
come so absorbed in their interest that
the period of hunger is allowed to pass
and the period of fatigue and depres-
sion set in. The worst of it is that
once the second stage is reached, the
desire for food is gone and after many
hours abstinence the man or woman
is too exhausted to digest meal when
either of them gets 1t. To avoid this
extreme, it is only necessary to take
the most light and rapid repast during
the hungry stage. A glass OF milk or
merely biscuit while hungry will pre-
vent the after loss of appetite.-Sclence

by the condition of the ewes. and If for
any reason they are permitted to enter
their winter quarters in thin condition
no time should be lost in getting them
started on the road to improvement IL
a good crop of vigorous lambs is to be
expected in the spring. If the ewes
enter winter in good flesh but little if
any grain will be required until few
weeks before lambing time; hence it
is the part of economy to have them
in this condition at this particular sea
son.
The Early Market Lamb.
With the ever increasing population
of our cities, the high price of beef and
the growing taste for the healthful and
delicious meat of the sheep the produc-
tion of the early market lamb seems
destined to be an important factor in
the revenues of the farm.
A good system of producing lambs
for early market is to select in the ear
ly fall the ewes that are intended to be
retired from the flock and place them
upon a good piece of pasture, rape be-
ing preferable. Arrange to have them
lamb early, not later than the last of
January. The winter management
should be practically the same as for
the breeding flock, except that more
liberal quantity of grain should be Civ
en- after lambing. Adjoining the shed
or yard in which the ewes are fed a
place should be set apart for the lambs,
SO constructed as to admit the lambs,
but exclude the ewes.
When the lambs are ready for ship
ment to market, as they should be at
the age of six to eight weeks, the ewes
from which they are taken should be
given but little If any grain for a few
days or until the milk secretions are
materially checked. AS soon as they
give evidence of drying UP commence
to gradually increase the grain feed un-
til it is brought up to quite liberal
amount. 1t is highly important at this
juncture to expedite their preparation
for market with all possible speed, as
at this season fat aged ewes will COM
mand q better price than at any other
time of the year.

LAMBS FOR MARKET.
ewes Should Enter Winter In Good,
Well Fed Condition.

Well Fed Condition.
The temptation for the farmer is to
put off the commencement Of fall and
winter feeding of breeding ewes to the
latest possible period. This, however,
Is q serious mistake, as frozen and
nonnutritious grasses are totally insult
ficient to maintain the bodily wants of
the animal, and a rapid wasting of
flesh too often ensues. The loss of
flesh resulting from this treatment is
combe of Oregon, an authority in these
matters, strongly urges that care
should be taken to prevent the ewes
from entering winter in an emac.ated
condition and that they should be kept
separated from the rest of the flock
The time of changing from pasture to
winter feed is often q critical period
in the life of sheep, especially so when
no provision has been made to supply
succulent food in the form of roots
and silage. An excellent plan to assist
in modifying the injurious effects of
these changed conditions is to COM
mence feeding the flock light ratlons of
oats upon the first appearance of Sc
we're autumn frosts. Surprisingly good
results will be obtained by feeding one
half pound of oats per head while the
ewes are yet on pasture.
Winter Housing and Feed.
There should be no evil results fol-
lowing the proper housing Of sheep.
In a warm, humid winter climate close
housing is entirely out of the question,
and If adopted evil results will in
evitably follow. If ewes of the large
mutton breeds are to be housed floor
space Of at least fifteen square feet for
each eve should be provided.
The amount and character of tho
feed given should be governed largely
