FEEDING LAMBS IN WINTER.

There is considerable difference of op,n-
ION between expert sheep raiscrs on the
subject OF winter feeding OF lambs, thc
claim being made on the one hand that
the lamb can only be carried through the
winter in good shape on a ration com
posed largely of grains. while others feed
crs claim this method To be e~xtravagani
ana advocate the feeding of high class
roughage almost exclusively. AS for the
latter plan il Is admitted tina the season
OF feeding is of necessity longer to obtain
The best results but that is balanced by the
decreased cost. The experience of other
feeders is along the linz OF using both
grains and roughage intelligently. start
