CARE OF SHEEP
IN SUMMER,

IT, is good thing to wean early
spring lambs during the latter part of
June. Some sheepmen advocate allow
ing them to continue to run with the
ewes, but it has been found that the
latter will do much better without the
lambs, and with plenty of good pas
ture the lambs will make better
growth if they are separated from the
ewes.
OF course food requirements of the
ewes and lambs are very different at
this time, which makes "A separate box
more necessary. Always try to have
plenty of good pasture for the sheep.
as this is a very important feature,
without which the animals will not do
well.
DO not fatten the ewes. but put them
into Il plump condition preparatory to

figures that his cattle are getting suf-

Treating Horses Corns.

For corns in horses the only remedy
is TO protect the affected spot from the
pressure of the shoe. Frequent shoe
ing with careful pairing away of the
hardened hoof or corn. so that this
particular region will not receive any
more of the weight bearing than is
absolutely unavoidable, is the point
to be aimed at. In addition to this.
the hoof should be kept as soft as
practicable by applications of mois-
ture to the whole foot. 1t is seldom
that complete cure is obtained. but
with care little Inconvenience will re-
suit from ordinary corns.

Tip on Sheep Dog Training.

Training young sheep dog which
never had the benefit of seeing an old
err dog at work is difficult business
1t is best to teach dog when he Is
young. If possible let him have a
run with an old dog ut the game. but
check any inclination to play. If you
have no opportunity to let young dog
learn something of the early tricks or
sheep driving it is best to begin de-
terminedly with him ut home. The
first lesson il obedience. Of course.
and, right on top of that get him into
the habit of lying down when told.

entering the breeding period and the
winter The lambs, on the other hand
should be pushed rapidly. as quick ma
turity is matter of considerable i'm
portance if good profit is to be made
from them.
The lambs make a better growth
while young at less cost il pound. and
taking all things into consideration. it
is more desirable to get them off to
market at the earliest possible mo-
ment.
Good Mixed Pasture.
Allow ewes the run of Il good mixed
pasture. with access to little clover
They will do exceedingly well with
this and Il little grain. The flock should
be provided with II plentiful supply Of
good. pure water. which is very essen
tal, as a discouraging outcome Is apt
to he the result il they are allowed TO
drink water that is impure. Feed the
lambs Il small quantity of oats mixed
with some bran as an appetizer and
allow them the run of a fresh clover
pasture. which will keep them grow
ing nicely.
Frequent change of pasture Is a
great help with sheep, particularly
with the lambs. which are rather par
ticular about what they eat. If they
are turned into Il new range after q
shower it will be surprising to see how
thoroughly they will 60 over the grass
again, even though it has been cropped
closely before.
Watch ewes and lambs closely for
any indications of stomach worms or
other insect pests. Keep the stable
darkened and accessible, so they may
get away from the flies in muggy
weather. Flies are more annoying to
sheep than many would suppose, and
every possible precaution should be
pests.
Watchful Eye Necessary.
To make sheep profitable the ever
watchful eye of the flockmaster is
most necessary. Some farmers give
their sheep good pasturage during
the summer, but they overlook the i'm
portance of going among the flock two
or three times Il week to see that all
are on foot and doing well and have
plenty of good water to drink. 1t is
just as necessary to see that sheep
have plentiful supply of water, es-
pecially during summer, as it is to sup
ply plenty of suitable and palatable
food.
The flock should also be regularly
supplied with salt. Salt is an element
of food. and Il flock of sheep sailed reg
ularly do far better. remain in more
thrifty condition and make greater
gain than those which are supplied
with this element ut irregular inter

One Will Be Held Soon to Discuss

The much talked of mass meeting
which will have as its object the dis
cussion of the system in vogue in our
public schools will probably be held
some time during the next ten days. 1t
will be a free for all affair-that is all

| Those who are firmly convinced that
our school system is at present abso

cism will be allowed the floor to tell
how they happen 60 have this concep-
ton of what a school should be.
Those who have as their slogan RE

probably also be out in force to express
their views. 1t is safe to predict that
some startling assertions will be made,
and it is likewise an assured thing that
| this mass meeting will draw great
throng.

work of the high school I have been
directed by the committee to invite
| you to submit for its consideration a
written statement giving such facts
concerning the merits or dement's of
Topeka's school system as you may

that you have given much time and

If you will kindly send me the state
ment asked for prior to that time it
will be greatly appreciated.

some of the members of the commit

favor of the system now employed in
the city schools. but she will be glad
to meet with the committee and eX-
presser her views orally.

MOVES UP A NOTCH.
Anna Gould's Husband Becomes ''Se-
rene Highness" by Fathers Death.

Paris, Feb 21.-Charles William
Frederick Bosom de Talleyrand-Peri-
cord, fourth duke of Talleyrand and
father of Prince De Sagan, who mar
ried the Countess De Castellane. for
merly Anna Gould, died today.
The duke suffered a stroke of paraly-
sis, as the result of his experience in
the charity bazaar fire. The French
courts appointed the Duchess De Tai
leyrand his guardian. A nephew
sought to get an order cancelling this
but the dukes wife ouwitted him by
abducting her husband in a sensational
manner. She died five years ago.
With the dukes death Prince De
Sagan succeeds to the titles of Duke
De Talleyrand and Herzog Zu Sagan,
and becomes a serene highness.
The duke died in an apartment in
the Avenue Elysee Reclus, where, since
the sale of the family mansion in the
Rue st. Dominique he lived with his
son Bosom, the Duke De Valencay, for
mer husband of Helen Morton. daugh-
ter of Levi P. Morton of New York.
The dukes distinguished figure had
been missing from the world of fash
ion, where he reigned supreme so long,
for the last twelve years, failing health
having forcerd him to live in the closest
retirement.
