Feeding Sheep
Economically.

Handling sheep and lambs the last
two or three years has been easy money
to almost every one that has touched
them, and the profit in the business
has been sufficient temptation to get
some men back into the business who
do not have strong personal pre-
objection for the animals.
Any such who do go into raising or
feeding sheep or lambs are apt to not
take much note Of the ways Of animals
about their eating and may conse-
qUentIy allow them to waste a good
deal Of grain. All who are familiar
with sheep know that though they eat
almost anything that is green and
clean, they will not eat dirty things,
especially grain or forage that has
been contaminated with their own
filth. Consequently it is q matter of
importance to provide Troughs for
grain and racks for rOughage, into
which they cannot climb and stand or
even put their feet at all.
Probably the best way to make
troughs for grain Is to build them
alongside and close up to a board
fence or wall of a building. says a
writer in Farm Progress. If this is
done and the trough, even though fat
bottomed. is not very wide the sheep
will not be able to jump up into it and
stand in it. This would be the plan
for single trough, and the sheep could
stand only on one side.
But troughs may be made fat bot
toned and wide enough to divide by a
board partition running along the mid

Some Suggestions For Breeders Of the
Feathered Beauties.
Don't neglect the drinking water al
this season of the year, and have il
fresh for the birds every day During
the cold weather add a pinch Of cay.
enne pepper to the drinking water
which will not only warm the birds up
but will prove very beneficial.
Whole corn fed shortly before dusk
during the cold winter months will aid

Portable during the cold nights, and
as homing pigeons are not used fol-
flying during, the winter months the
additional flesh that corn will put on
the birds can easily be reduced in the
spring by few days hard flying.
Grit should not be overlooked during
the cold weather, when the birds are
kept in confinement and the ground is
frozen too hard to permit them to pick
up the necessary ingredients for the
purpose of properly digesting their
food; hence we must provide plenty OF
good sharp grit for our pets.

Provide plenty of perches for the
birds so that none will remain hud
died up on the floor or in corners sub
Ject to a draft of cold air, which
will result in a case of roup, cankel
or consumption.
Keep an eye on the birds in genera
and remove the first one that shows

its presence among the flock will prove

mud
If gravel is not obtainable and there
Is no other way to provide for solid
standing room around the feed racks
and troughs the best thing is to build a
board platform on good substantial sills
of some wood that does not rot easily.
This idea is shown in the accompany
ing illustration, which shows low, fat
racks. The racks might be better if
made Y shaped, with up and down
slated sides, wide enough apart to per-
NIT the sleeps noses to pass through
readily. I have used them made in
that way as we'll as like the illustration
and found that it saved much Of the
