DRESSING AND KEEPING MUTTON
Some Suggestions for the Home
Handling of the Meat.

In dressing mutton always bear in
mind that you should not feed your
wether for "a hours prior to slaughter
ing, 1t Is not generally known, but
undigested food is apt to flavor the
flesh. Keep this point constantly in
mind. Do not try fancy methods in
dressing your mutton. Have your car
cass perfectly plain. 1t is good rule
to kill the sheep In November, at
least wait until after fly time.
Do not hire butcher to kill your
sheep. Do II yourself After slaugh-
tering hang the carcass in your cellar
If the latter will keep bread without
its molding, you may rest assured
that your mutton will not spoil. Hang
the mutton, do not lay 1t down. If
hung properly with no two carcasses
touching. and with the loose pieces
drawn back so that the air can thor
oughly permeate the surface, these
carcasses should keep till April. At
any rate, do not take II down for cut
ting up until one month after putting
1t in the cellar; ! prefer six weeks.
There is. says Orange Judd Farmer. a
chemical change in the flesh of the
sheep within six weeks from the time
of killing. You will find after that
time the mutton will not stick to the
knife in handling the carcass.

WHAT EXPERIMENTS paoVeo,
As to Balanced and Unbalanced Rs.
tions for Cattle.

Howard. r. Smith, professor of ami
NAL husbandry, University of Ne
braska. in his book on "Profitable
Stock Feeding says:
our stable experiment stations havs
conducted numerous feeding expert.
ments with animals, In which bal
anced and unbalanced rations have
been compared. At the Kansas expe.
riment station, corn. prairie hay and
corn stover, combination having a
nutritive ration OF Ill, was fed to
steers in contrast with a balanced ra.
ton having nutritive ration of 1:6.5.
The average OF three trials showed
that 2S per cent. less feed was re-
quired for given Increase in weight
with the balanced ration.
In an experiment at the Nebraska
experiment station. with yearling
steers. 1t was found that, to make the
same gain. 80 per cent less food was
required with corn and alfalfa than
with corn and prairie hay. and the al.
falfa was no more expensive.
In another lot where oil meal.
rich protein food, was added to corn
and prairie hay, 25 per cent. total
food was required for a given gain.
The experiment stations of Illinois
and Missouri have recently shown the
advantage of corn and clover over
corn and timothy in as striking CON
trast.
Nor have the tests been confined
to fattening cattle alone. Expert
ments with sheep, swine and dairy
cows show that much larger returns
are made when the rations are com
pounded in way that will furnish the
nutrients in proportion somewhat
near the requirements as determined
by scientific Methods

LIVESTOCK NOTES.

Blue grass and clover make good
hog pasturage.
Lampas is disease OF the horses
mouth-behind the front teeth. One
way to help 1t is to feed ear corn to
the horse.
A slight cut on a horses tongue
will usually heal and make NO trouble.
A bad cut may need few stitches
taken in It by a surgeon.
On a certain dairy special there
hung a placard with the following
statement "A carload Of corn is
worth $3.50. A carload OF butter is
worth $4,000. Convert your corn into
butter and save the freight on 10
cars" On another there was, THE
dairyman leaves his children better
farm than he got; the grain farmer
does not"

The development OF state coal
lands for the benefit Of state institu

senatorial committee appointed by
the last legislature to investigate the
needs of state institutions and to re-
port back TO The sixteenth general
assembly The work has all been
done. and the committee, composed
of Senators Anfenge. Barela. Lewis
Clayton and Tavlor, is ready to re.

There is one moment above all 9TH
ers when man can feel thoroughly
miserable without being physically
III 1t Is when neighbor has
bought something at a sale and comes
up with voice which is calculated to
call back all the good deeds he has
done for you and asks you to sign
little note for him, just as nelghbor-
ly accommodation. You hate to say
no, yet at the same time, perhaps.
you feel that you ought not to say yes.
you are indeed in an awkward posi-
zion. Looking at the matter in
business way, it is expecting too
much of a man to ask him without
any hope of compensation to sign
note with him. 1t is asking you to
furnish so much money If the first
fellow does not, and nine times out of
ten you get very little in return If
you have to furnish it.

HxalEhE oE uhpEawEAR.

Habits of good hygiene are OF slow
growth, for the world is at heart con
servative, and men are prone to think
that what was good enough for their
fathers was good enough for them
Again, there are many habits to which
no one gives thought. and it comes as
disagreeable surprise to be told that
they are not sanitary.
Take the matter of underclothing
for example. Not many years ago it
was not unusual to find persons, even
those of good breeding and culture,
who would have resented in perfect
good faith the intimation that their
habits were not cleanly, ana yet who
in the winter time wore the same un-
derclothing at night as they did in the
day.
There has been a reform in this re-
spect. and there are few, we hope,
who retain this unhygienic custom.
Those who must have protection of
this sort have special set of under
clothing for night wear. But we are
still far from perfect in the hygiene
of our underclothing.
Many persons wear a set of under
clShes each day for week, few
have complete change every day.
and more change twice in the week.
This last-named habit is, perhaps, the
present state of hygienic intelligence
-apd, of pocket-the best that can
be NPsJked for. and 1t is really suffi-
cient for daily bathers
There is way in which this Gus
tom can be made more cleanly and
more hygienic without adding TO the
laundry bill. The average person
wearing two sets of underclothing for
week will make the change in the
middle of the week, but 1t will be far
better IL the two sets were kept going
the entire week on alternate days.
With the bi-weekly change, the
clothes worn during the day are aired
for only seven or eight hours in the
twenty-four, and never have the pur-
flying process of summing With
two sets going on alternate days, one
set can be aired two nights and one
day, and If possible should be hung up
where they can receive the direct
rays of the sun for some hours. They
should not be kept in a dark closet
Light, and especially sunlight. is
powerful disinfectant and cleansing
agent. This way of managing will
keep each change as fresh and sweet
as If it had been laundried, and that
weakening of the system shown by a
r. g.
is so often apparently inexplicable.
but which is really due to the reab-
sorption of the animal secretions
from unaired underclothing, will be
averted.-Ex.
