came up and commanded him to va
cate the premises, their argument
was a couple of rifles which they
said were in their possession. Mr..
Brooks recognized the validity Of their

SHEEP NOTES

From records kept at the Wisconsin
experiment station of 240 ewes, cover
ering period of five yeas, the follow
ing conclusions were drawn: The
nomal period of CESSATION, or the
time from which normal eve is bred
to the time of lambing ranges from
las to 151 days, and the greater per-
centage of ewes will lamb 147 days af-
ter service. The CESSATION period
appears to be somewhat longer for
the male than the female. The per-
centage of males born is practically
the same as that of females. The
larger percentage of lambs born on or
before the 147th day of pregnancy is
strong, and after this time the unm-
Der of weak and dead lambs is inc
creased.
The number of days a lamb is car
ried in utero does not seem to have
any effect on its size. The largest
percentage of increase is due to twin
lambs, and there is no appreciable
difference in the percentage of twins
of the different breeds. The pro-
duction of twin and triplet lambs is
detrimental to the strength and vi
tality of lambs at birth.
Shropshire ewes appear to be more
prolific than any other breed.
Ewes six years old produce the largest
percentage of increase, while young
ewes have the greater percentage of
single lambs. The percentage of ram
lambs increases and the percentage
of eve lambs decreases as the age of
the eve advances. A ram is at his
best at two or three years of age.
The age of the ram does not have any
effect on the sex of the offspring.
Ram lambs average about one-half
pound heavier at birth than eve
lambs.
The larger the eve the greater the
percentage of increase, while the ram
has no effect on the lambs in this
respect. The size of the eve and not
the size of the ram determines the
size of the lamb.-American Stock
