Not All Loss.

Quotations cleverly malapropos or
neatly distorted furnish half the wit
OF the professional humorist. Never
theless, when such a verbal misstep
Is spontaneous, there is often real
fun in it.
A young man had been out sailing
with his sister and friend of hers,
he did not know particularly well the
line points of the art. and on trying
to make the landing against a head
wind, he exclaimed, after several vain
attempts:
Well, it is better to have luffed
and lost than never to have luffed at
all!"-Youth's Companion.

Whilst | stand in simple relations to

~ right and wrong way Of pastur-

allow the clover or alfalfa almost to

with these crops some timothy, redtop

where there Is a mixture this way the
sheep win alternately eat one and the

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-
diIection 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-
quently allow them to waste 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 II Is 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 building. says a
writer in Farm Progress. IL this IL
done and the trough, even though fat
bottomed, Is not very wide the sheep
will not be able to jump up into 1t and
stand in Ii. This would be the plan
for a single trough, and the sheep could
stand only on one side.
But troughs may be made fiat bot
toned and wide enough to divide by a
board partition running along the mid

1t Is the performance that tells.
III cows are being driven a long way,
IL Is best TO stop every little while and

The best cows are handled from calf

A good pedigree Is fine thing in
man or beast. but when 1t comes to
cows II Is well to look at the udder and
the general build of the animal, for
pedigree alone will not fill the milk
pail.
The finishing touches always pay.
Milk and butter In attractive packages
are the readiest sellers at top price.
Farmers In selecting cows usually
want those who give milk that Is good
to drink after 1t has been skinned.
Pure water Is as important for the
cows now as 1t was In the winter time.
