DIPPING AFFECTS
WEIGHT
BY u. S. Agricultural Depart.
ment Expert.

Dipping often results in slight set
back. If sheep are weighed immedi-
ately before dipping, and again at the
same hour the following day. it will
be noticed that the weight has
changed. There may be gain, but
usually there is loss varying from
one-half to three and a half pounds.
The second day there may also be
either a gain or loss. AS the weight
of sheep varies from day to day, from
one to five pounds in loss or gain, due
chiefly to the increase or decrease of
the amount Of fodder and water in the
stomach, the effects of dipping can
not be estimated in "a or 4S hours In
order to meet statements made con-
corning loss or gain in weight, the
bureau Of animal industry had sheep
dipped at stated intervals and the
weights taken from week to week: all
the sheep were kept under exactly the
same conditions; the dips used were
lime and sulphur, tobacco and sulphur,
and two proprietary carbolic dips.
At the end of about two months,
after three clippings, all of the sheep
showed gain, with the exception of
one Of the sheep from the carbolic
dip. which lost slightly. The lowest
gain among the sheep treated with to-
bacco dip was three and one.half
pounds, the highest liz pounds. The
lowest gain with carbolic dip was one
and one-half pounds, the highest three
and one-third pounds, while one ami
NAL lost half pound. The sheep were
given fourth dipping, and at the end
of another month showed the follow
ing gains and losses over their original
weight at first dipping: Sheep treat
ed with tobacco, nine to Is pounds
gain; sheep treated with lime and sui
phur, liz to IA pounds gain; sheep
treated with carbolic dip, one to six
and one-half pounds gain, in one case
1871 pounds lost.
The experiment was then repeated,
the lime and sulphur being used on
sheep previously dipped in carbolic
or tobacco dips. and vice versa. After
ten days the sheep treated with lime
and sulphur had gained from two to
three pounds; the sheep treated with
tobacco had remained stationary. or
