Ground Zone as Feed.

II Is surprising that SO many fresh
bones are allowed 10 go 10 waste on
our farms when they are particularly
adapted for poultry feed. Fresh bone
contains nitrogen, phosphorus and
lime in considerable quantities. The
lime is useful in the shells Of the
eggs but this is the least important
thing connected with the feeding Of
bones. The lime might H. supplied in
old plaster. But the phosphorus in
the bones constitutes a very important
element Of food and this phosphorus
goes TO build Up the bones in growing
fowls. II is more useful for growing
fowls than for mature fowls. but is
serviceable for both. The bones also
contain considerable quantities of nj.
trOgen. and this nitrogen goes TO
make muscle. The only way that q
farmer can use the bones is to buy a
bone mill by which they can be re.
duced to IA worry fine condition with
small effort. We have heard people
complain that it required too much
muscular effort to grind bones. But
this was true largely a long time ago.
Bone grinding mills have now been
perfected to such an extent that little
effort is required. Every farmer should
keep enough fowls 10 justify him in
buying "a bone mill, which can be pur.
chased for a very few dollars. Fowls
crave food Of this kind both summer
and winter.

The American Sheep.

Jh" American sheep is coming 10
be more and more n matter Of interest
TO the American farmer. 1t is doubt.
ful If in this generation we shall
again see the small interest in sheep
that has been shown during the past
fifteen years. This lack OF interest
was due to the fact that the sheep
with which the farmer found himself
fifteen years ago was largely a wool.
producing sheep, and wool was then
declining a a rapid rate. The de.
mHnd for mutton was much less then
than now In the fifteen years there
has been a great change in the char.
aCter Of American sheep. They are
more largely suited for the production
Of mutton than they were then, and,
moreover the price Of wool is again
high enough to encourage the sheep
owno" to produce il.
The city people are demanding a
sheep of higher quality than formerly
and can hardly be satisfied with a
sheep that has been brought up on
weeds and brush. The sheep that is
well fed from birth TO the block IS
the only one that produces meat that
brings a good price in the city mar.
kets. The sheep that have been
grown on poor feed and then fattened
quickly ssll for a smaller price on the
city market, as their meat is known TO
be not of the best quality. The Amer.
lean sheep may be a pasture cleaner,
but II must have good grass also If n
is to be profitable.
