KEEPING EWES FLEECE DRY
Highly Important That Breeding
Sheep Should Receive Good Shell
ter From Either Rain or Snow.

The protection of breeding ewes
from falling snow is important es-
pecially is 1t important when it falls
in the form of rain Winter rains and
also sleet are always cold. If sheep of
the open wooded breed are long ex-
posed to these, they may do them
great harm. The closed wooded breeds,
as the merinos, says Thomas Shaw,
will be harmed much less, as the wa
ter cannot readily enter the wool
which they carry. The shelter pro-
vided up to the Landing season may
be of the simplest kind, providing it
will protect from storms and wind.
The aim should be to give breeding
ewes large liberty in winter, if the
ground is bare, or even partially, for
it will do them good to give them
large liberty. They will make excur-
sions into the fields in search of grass
and the exercise will do them much
good. They should be allowed to lie
in a well bedded yard at night, or
in the shed or house adjoining, as
they prefer.
The other necessary attentions in
Guide regular feeding, supply of salt
at all times accessible, an ample sup
ply of pure water and yards apart
from those of horses and cattle.

CAP AND GOWN DEFEATED.
Smith College Girls Fix on White
Dresses For Graduation.

The members of the senior class at
Smith college recently voted on the
question Of wearing cap and gown or
white dresses with a red rose at grad
uation. The result was overwhelmingly
in favor Of the white dresses. The
campaign was conducted In vigorous
manner.
The cap and gown adherents argued
that their attire would save expense,
as rivalry in white dress is burden TO
the poorer girls. The girls who ia
vored retaining the present style OF
white dress with a red rose said that
each student had to have at least one
white dress for the graduation festivi-
ties and that cap and gown meant only
ndded cost. The real argument. which
doubtless settled the question, was the
point made by the white dress contin-
gent that this Is far more becoming.
