possibility of creating numerous ones
and accentuating those already made
were so numerous and prolific.
But the admiral showed himself to
be a diplomat of a high order. He
won the confidence and esteem Of
the whole of Nicaragua, irrespective
of party. He was cheered wherever
he went, by the Madriz government
party, by the Estradists, by the inter
ventionists.
What we need" one of the inter
ventionists enthusiastically said to
the admiral at the time when inter
vention talk was running high, "is

possessed of that tact in high de-

signed to the command Of a squadron
after having been transferred from
the list of active service to the roster
of the retired.
The admiral had already rounded
out the stipulated period of active
service when the Nicaraguan trouble
broke out. When in the first of last
December the government deemed it
necessary to send a strong body of
marines and numerous force Of war
ships to the scene, it was announced
that Admiral Kimball, then on duty
In Washington, had been assigned to
command the expedition. The ad-
miral was then almost on the
verge of retirement and it was prac-
tically certain that this duty would
considerably overlap into the retired
period. But as explained by the navy
department, ''Kimball is the very man
for the work"
Those intimately acquainted with
the admiral and who had a fore
knowledge of what the work was like
ly to be, did not need that official in
dorsement to know that he was the
very man to handle it. Eminently
competent in his profession, the ad-
miral possessed other qualifications
which peculiarly fitted him for this
task, one of these being thorough
knowledge of international law. The

PASTURE FOR SPRING LAMBS
Farmer With Limited Number OF Ami.
mails Should Strive to Put Every
Pound Possible on Them.
(BY I. MOTES.l

In these days of high priced meat
the farmer with a limited number of
lambs should strive to put every
pound possible upon them b the most
approved feeding, and by excellent
pasturage.
AS soon as the lambs are weaned
and taken from the ewes a great deal
Of care should be used in providing
them with just the grazing which will
make them grow fast, and put flesh
upon their bones rapidly. The pasture
should be judiciously selected. 1t
should be young pasture, preferably
rape or clover. The grain ration should
be little more than they had before
they were weaned; say about a pound
Of oats daily.
No corn should be fed to the lambs
To complete the allowance they should
be well fed on turnips, cabbage, car
rots, mangel wurzels and other sue
culent root feed.
The allowance of oats may seem
small to some feeders, but the expert
ence of sheep men has shown that ex-
cessive feeding of grain seriously re-
duces the capacity of the lambs
stomach for all time.
am great believer in root crops
for lambs and sheep, as we'll as for
all other farm stock and do not think
any farmer will have the best success
with his limbs unless he grows good
supply of these crops
In the summer care of lambs a great
deal of thought should also be given
to providing them with good shelter
from storm, excessive rains and other
bad weather.
There should be some roomy. pro-
tected place at the barn large enough
to accommodate all your lambs
where they may take refuge during Sc
we're weather-some place walled in
against blowing rains, and yet not too
dark.
1t should be clean and kept thickly
1ioored with nice dry straw or hay, so
the lambs will be comfortable and at
ease, no matter how bad the weather.
1t should not be near the stalls of
the horses and mules, and there should
be no loud, harsh noises around the
barn while the lambs are bedded down
in the straw.
Quietude and peaceful surroundings
are as necessary to growing amin al
as proper food and shelter-especiaIly
so in the case of timid little lambs re-

cattle but was set low enough SO that
the calves could have access to it. By
its use very little grain is wasted and
what falls to the ground is picked up
by the hogs. This particular self
