attends the sessions Of the affiliated
associations, listens to the lectures
and addresses, and sees the exhibits

dollars, in the knowledge impaired to
him which he only needs to apply in
q practical way on his own farm to
realize the cash"
J. Fl. Hale, the Peach King" who

sheep in fair condition, well covered
and vigorous. Clover, Of course Is
next best. but unless it is of the best
quality should be fed In connection
with cabbage or root crops of some
sort. Sheep naturally need some sue
culent or juicy feed. This element is
pretty well supplied in alfalfa, but not
to any extent in any of the other ordi-
nary roughages.
PLENTY of exercise is as essential as
liberal feeding to the successful win
tering of breeding ewes. l have never
thought It best to house the animals
closely. Unless the day is wet and
stormy they much prefer being out in
the field nibbling at a straw pile to
being penned up In the barn, and 1t IS
much better for them to be out. Ma
ture gives them ample protection
against the cold. and the fresh air and
sun are what they need. Unless the
snow is very deep | feed my sheep
their hay several hundred yards from
their pens or sheds, thus compelling
the animals to take liberal amount
of exercise two or three times daily
This has mighty important effect
upon the quality and hardness of the
spring lambs. Generally have found
that the lambs will accurately reflect
the wintering of their dams in their
degree of hardness and vitality. My
lambs came in February last year.
The ewes were accustomed to out of
door weather, with a large open shed
storm. The lambs were born in an
open shed and yet were uncommonly
strong and healthy. Only one of the
entire lot was chilled so that we had
TO take him to the fire to revive him"

Handling Silaae.

The quality Of the Stage may be
materially bettered by using care in
taking 1t out. Don't put the fork
down FIVE or six inches deep, as
though you were pitching manure. but
use fork with tines close together
and skim Off the top, only loosening
what you need for the days feeding.
Keep the surface level and perhaps a
little lower near the outer wall.
Silage cannot be handled as careless
ly as ordinary roughage. The cows in
eating will throw some out OF the
managers. and some may be scattered
along the feed alley. II this is al
lowed to remain there 1t will soon
cause a bad odor. The man that uses
the broom freely is the one that has
the sweet smelling stable, a condition
worth while. for milk takes up a for
eign odor with surprising rapidity. and
unless everything is sweet smelling
the milk will tell 1t, and eventually
the customer will find it out and take
his trade elsewhere.

ly If they are being kept at work,
form an ideal grain ration. The
amount may be regulated according
to the amount of work they are COM
PEELED to do. Much of the risk at foal-
ing Is eliminated by careful feeding.
Her supply of milk may be regulated
SO that it will not form hard and
caked udder believe. as rule. that
IT is safer to withhold all rich milk
producing foods for a few days be-
fore she is due TO foal. After she has
foaled. especially If she gives the
promise Of being a heavy mixer, she
should be fed very sparely until her
milk flow is regulated to meet the de-
mands of the colt. And otherwise II
the mare is scanty mixer she should
be fed a more liberal ration of milk
producing foods.
Colts should be taught to eat grain
with their dam before they are wean-
ed. Teach them to stand tied with a
halter. About six months of age Is
the proper time to wean strong colt
Many good horsemen prefer to wean
them at once. while others wean them
more gradually. allowing them to. suck
once or twice a day before they are
taken away entirely. When the colt
is taken aNny The mare should be
watched, aUl her udder should be
bathed at least once every day with
cold water gud spirits of camphor
This dries up the milk glands and pre-
vents the C.i.p" from becoming caked
and feverisA believe that the colt
should be trained To do light work
during the hirl year.

Good BREEDING at Low Cost.

The cheapest way for poor man to
obtain the use Of pure bred sire is to
induce a dozen of his neighbors to CO.
operate with him In the purchase of a
sire of merit as may be desirable The
Minnesota station believes this fea-
sibe plan for poor or well to do farm
ers. The poor man can hardly afford
to own such a sire for his exclusive
use. The more fortunate neighbor
doesn't want to waste money in exclu-
sive ownership, so the practical way is
to own bull In neighborhOod partner
ship and all use him until his useful
ness is exhausted by reason Of rela-
tionship to the cows of the community.
Then he may be sold to some other
equally wise neighborhood.

OBITUARY..
JEROME B. CHERBINO.


The following article is from the
Carlsbad Current, published at Carries
bad, New Mexico:
The well-known sheepbreeder and
dealer in bucks died Wednesday morn
ing, January 25, 1911, while feeding his
sheep at his home two miles west of
Carlsbad. He partook of hearty
breakfast and at 1880 went out to cut
some soto heads for his bucks. AT
about 7:45 some children passing through
the feed lot noticed the body, but a big
dog which stood guard would not allow
them to get near it. They went to the
house and when Mrs. Cherbino came out
she found her husband dead. The child
rem 'phoned for help and DR.. Parr, while
Mrs. Cherbino remained with her hus-
band. When the physician arrived he
pronounced it apoplexy.
jerome B. Cherbino was born April
%, 1888, in Essex, Vt. He married
Achsa M. Merrill, by whom he had two
daughters, Mrs. P. C. Elmer of New
Haven and Mrs. L. C. Drolette of West
Cornwall, Vt. Mr. Cherbino came here
sixteen years ago and was married to
the widow, who survives him, who was
formerly Mrs. Matthews. He was an
ideal husband and neighbor of far more
than ordinary intelligence and his motto
seemed to be cheerfulness at all times.
He was never known to have a Crouch
being pleasant and full of fun every
time he was met on the street or else
where. In his death Mrs. Cherbino
loses a loving husband, the community
an enterprising businessman, and his
nelghbors a friend of sympathetic tenn
perment, sterling integrity and indus
try. Though seventy-seVen years old
he was exceptionally active and walked
with the step of a man of fifty. He
had many ups and downs in life, but by
close attention to business and never
thinking of past errors, except to profit
by them, he built up a competence in
the last few years that could be achieved
but by few in life time.
The funeral services were held at the
home west of the city at two o clock
Saturday and We're conducted by Rev.
Davis, pastor of the Presbyterian church
OF Carlsbad, of which the deceased
was member.
Perchance among the friends long gone
before,
The dearest one of all, best loved of yore
Will haste to meet me, and with fond
caress
And loving greeting, hand to hand will
press
And lead me to mansion grand and
fair
Where no night is. Gods glory every
49, where.

RAISING DRAFT HORSES.
Careful Handling and Proper Mating
Insure Success.


l would not advise the average farm
er to 60 into the business of breeding
growing and developing draft horses
for the market unless he is q good
feeder and naturally takes pride in
handling the horses. writes CORE.
spondent of the National Stockman
1t requires liberal feeding to grow and
properly develop the high grade draft
horse, and the actual difference in
cost between growing the right kind
and mongrels is so small that it is
folly. to go into the business with n
lot of old scrub mares and depend
upon the good qualities of the stallion
to correct the natural weaknesses and
deformities of the mares. The man
who knows how to feed and keep his
work team in good flesh and good con-
dition can afford to invest a few hun
dred dollars in a pair of good brood
mares and grow horses for the mar
ket.
The mares should be fed at all times
with a liberal amount of clean and
nourishing foods and should have
plenty of pure water Oats and bran,
with perhaps an ear Of corn. especial
