Kohl-Rabi for Sheep.

The kohl-rabi is a vegetable belong
ing to the same order as the turnip,
but differing from the latter in that
the enlargement at the base appears
as a swelling of the foOt-stalks OF the
leaves instead of the root. There are
two varieties, the green and the pur-
pie, with large and small leaves. 1t
was first brought into prominence in
1897 when the turnip crop was ruined
by a grub which attacked it just be-
low the surface of the ground. The
texture of this part of the kohl-rabi
is too tough to allow Of it's being in
jured by grubs, so that it made good
substitute for the turnip. The special
advantages of this plant are: Its i'm
munity from insect attacks; the great
extent to which it resists frosts; its
habit of carrying all the edible portion
well above ground, thus making 1t
most valuable for feeding off by sheep
without waste or the labor of hacking
up the last portion of the bulbs; its
remarkable power of standing
drought; and it's freedom from mildew.
1t will stand transplanting better than
any of the root crops, which renders
it valuable for filling up blanks. The

Larger Hog Pastures.

While travelling through the coun-
try one will observe that most of the
pig pastures are not pastures but SIM
ply runs. This means that the pigs
get little grass or clover while it is
at its best early in the spring, and go
without the rest of the season. 1t
also means that before fall it will be
rooted over and over again. Give the
pigs a good big pasture where they
will have more range and all the clo-
yer they will eat and some TO spare,
and they will not root themselves poor

Glover is very much cheaper than
grain. Then why not give them all
they will eat? Fattening hogs will
make the same gain on twenty-five per
cent less grain where they have &C
cess to good clover pasture. What we
need is more hog pastures and less hog
pens, or, what is more to the point,
mudholes inclosed with a fence.

FEEDING the Live Stock.

In feeding live stock, all animals
should have as much as they will eat
up clean and never enough to waste.
If, when fed on concentrated foods
they begin to show their dislike to it,
the quantity should be diminished and
more bulky matter substituted, but
everything depends upon the observa-
ton of the farmer and it is easy for
him to soon know how to regulate his
manner of feeding. An important mat
ter in measuring and weighing is the
knowledge the feeder always should
possess of what he is doing and
memorandum book is a necessary adj
junct to the system, which serves not
only in summing up the amount OF
feeding material on hand, but also as
sists in the future management, as
we'll as being guide in the rotation
and selection of the crops most nee
essary the succeeding year. Every
farmer should know what he is feed
ing to his stock, it's value and the ben
eft derived from it.
Not only must the quantity of food
be increased or reduced, according to
circumstances, but the quality should
also be considered. There are occa-
sions when horses may become too fat,
especially when idle; and the COW in
full flow of milk may fall off in her
yield unless provided with foods rich
in all the elements necessary for her
purpose. The young stock require more
mineral matter for promoting growth,
than do mature stock and all classes
of live stock may need only an extra
allowance during severe cold weather.
but the foods should also contain more

The Best Sheep for Mutton.

Farmers prefer breeds of sheep that
can be kept in fairly large fiocks
and which will rival the native stock
in hardness; consequently, II they
wish to improve the character of the
wool on the native stock they use the
Merino, but to breed sheep to sell as
mutton the Merino is rather small.
For such purposes the Southdown is
preferable. 1t is classed among the
middle woods and is not valued as
highly for the texture or quality of
it's wool as either the Merino or Cots.
wold but is far superior to either for
the butcher. The dressed carcass is
interspersed with lean and fat, hav-
ing a marbled appearance and in quail
ity of flesh has juiciness and ten
derness unsurpassed.
The Southdown is known by possess
ing dark face and dark legs. Some
butchers leave the lower part OF the
legs undressed on the stalls in order
to show the customers the fact OF the
mutton being Southdown, which gives
it a higher price. In England this
practice is common and the buyer re-
iects, unless at lower price, the
mutton that is not advertised with the
dark marks on the legs. The South
down is as hardy as the Merino or
native and the cross from the South
downs gives perfect satisfaction. No
one who makes it business of mar
keting sheep should overlook them
and while not as large as the Cots
void, it is claimed that the SouthdoWn
is more easily kept. The farmer who
sends a flock to market possessing
uniformly the dark face and legs pc
culiar to the Southdown will be so en-
couraged with quick sales and high
prices that he will continue the ex-
pertinent.

Preparing Sheepskins TOR Market.
A good deal of attention is being
directed at present to the question

Australian exchange, and the local tan.
ners wish for an export duty. But
there is an aspect of the question when
concerns not only the small sheep
farmer, but the squatter, and that is
the preparation of skins for market
If the producer could only see the
uuick-grading process which usually
takes place before the skins are sub
mitted by auction, and note how few
are classed as "frsts," it would be
profitable object lesson to him. The
difference in the skins and hides from
