AS TO THE PROPER
CARE OF THE FLOCK
Lambins Time, Shelter Nuisance Must
BE Considerably Walter j.. Quick, M. S.,
Animal Husbandry, Virginia.

According to the reports collected,
he most favorable time for lambs to
drop, If intended for the June market,
Is between February 10 and March l..
In order to have lambs drop February
IS, the ram should be turned with the
ewes about September Is. Lambs
dropped before this date suffer the
hardships of the winter, and unless
The ewes are very literally fed, do not
get sufficient milk TO make them grow
rapidly. These lambs become more or
less stunted and have not plump and
attractive appearance when marketed.
There is also a greater possibility for
loss with these lambs, and much
longer season for heavy feeding with
the ewes, making an additional ex-
pense without a corresponding in
crease I'm weight; while lambs dropped
after February Is are less liable to
loss from the most severe winter
weather.
This tremendous loss would have
been almost entirely preventedhad pre-
caution been taken at the proper time,
as the lambs were apparently strong
when born, but afterward persisted
from starvation.
II Is an exceptional case when a eve
has not sufficient milk to at least keep
her lamb alive. II she has been proper
ly fed a month previous to Landing.
The feed need not be expensive-it is

sired TO feed any one alone, oats are
most suitable. Corn alone rs not very
satisfactory, as II has a tendency to
produce weakened lambs and a small
milk flow. 1t is very important TO have
sufficient feeding room, as the danger
from crowding and pushing when
ewes are heavy in lamb is very great
and likely to cause some cases o.
abortion.
All rams should be separated from
the breeding ewes as soon as the
breeding season is over. as abortions
frequently occur from bunting by the
ram at feeding time.
Except in the extreme northern sec
lions all that is necessary is sufficient
shed room TO accommodate the entire
flock without crowding, and sheltering
them from storms, winds and
draughts. Too many have the idea
that the wool Of the sheep provides all
the protection needed. In reality sheep
are about the most tender of the vari-
Gus kinds OF stock, and were IL not for
the liberal protection provided by ma
ture more protection would be neces-
sary than Tor any other stock. Sheep
never thrive II confined to either
draughty or close, badly ventilated
buildings. A shed with good protec-
tion on the north, east and west, and
an open southern exposure is most de-
sirable, with an allowance OF about 12
square feet of floor space per sheep.
There should be n warmer arrange
ment for ewes when they drop in bad
weather and each eve should be sep
arated from the flock when she lambs.
The location should be high and dry.
The building should be literally sup
piled with bedding TO prevent damp
ness and insure cleanliness. A yard
should be attached. having a dog.proof
fence Both shed and yard should be
supplied with feeding troughs, allow
ir" amule trough room for each
sheep

Frequently a lamb can be saved II
an attendant is present at the proper
time The young ewes especially often
require assistance in Landing. II a
eve does not drop her lamb within a
reasonable length of time after labor
pains are noticeable, there is a cause
for the delay. Frequently a lamb Is
coming with its head bent back over
its shoulder, or perhaps twins are COM
ing together, or some other unnatural
position. A little manipulation OF the
foetus will frequently straigbten out
the difficulty, thereby saving the life
of the lamb, and not infrequently that
of the eve.
Some eyes refuse to own their
lambs, and other ewes refuse to let
the lambs nurse. Some ewes will &C
cept strange lambs. When a eve loses
her lamb It is advisable to keep up
her milk flow by milking, as she will
frequently accept a strange lamb II 1t
is given to her soon after Landing.
Frequently a set OF triplets or twins
are dropped by eve and she has not
sufficient milk to nourish all. II the
eve that has lost her own lamb Is
placed in a close pen and away from
other sheep she will readily adopt one
OF the twins or triplets, thereby rails
ing a good lamb instead Of running
idle and becoming too fat for breeding

may often be given a eve that has
just lost a lamb, II the dead lamb is
rubbed over the strange lamb while
wet, or the skin of the dead lamb tied
on the orphan, since the ewes affec-
tons are directed by the odor of her
lamb.
In many sections the dog nuisance
is a great detriment to the sheep in
dustry. The direct loss from severe
chasing and worrying is often not so
great as the loss that follows. Breed
ing ewes that have been badly worried
and frightened rarely, If ever, entirely
recover. The result is usually weak
and inferior lambs at the next lambing
season, with some abortions and many
abnormal presentations of the foetus.
In fact, many breeders of registered
sheep consider their breeding flock al
most ruined after having been severe
ly chased by dogs. Frequently a large
number OF ewes viii not breed for
some time after being chased and
badly frightened.
The efficiency of any dog law de-
ponds largely on its enforcement; but
too frequently It is never enforced,
many worthless dogs being allowed to
run at large that would be controlled
or destroyed If a rigid dog law was en-.
forced.
