FATTEN SHEEP FOR MARKET
Where Work Has Been Postponed
Until Too Late for Pasturina
Special Food Is Needed.

All old and such young ewes as the
owner does not desire to keep should
be culled out to fatten short
time before the ram is turned in with
the breeding ewes. The Gull sheep
can be fattened earlier in the season
by turning them into a rape field as
pasture, but If you put OF too late
special food Is required. In pure
bred focks the ewes are often kept
until they die of old age. as their
lambs are worth more than they are.
but in a graded flock it does not pay
TO keep ewes that do not have sound
mouths. An CID eve is likely to prove
unsatisfactory.
In selecting rams the aim should be
70 select those that are strong in the
points in which the ewes are weak.
For instance, ewes that have an open
coat and are narrow breasted should
be bred to rams that are strong on
those points. By this method a very
uniform flock can be established in
a very few years. 1t is a good idea to
turn the ram with the ewes in the
evening after he has been fed and
take him out in the morning before
being fed. A ram should be we'll fed
Bran, oats, roots of vegetables, make
a good ration with clover as rough

MORE PROFITS FOR FARMER
Department of Farm Management OF
Missouri University Makes Study
of Needed Changes

Many small improvements in the
system go to make more profits for
the farmer. Modern management is
necessary to get along with other
modern conditions. The department
of farm management of the Univer-
sity of Missouri has studied out many
of the things which need to be
changed on the average farm. and
some of them Professor Doane men
lions.
Some think" he says, that it is
necessary for us to turn every prac-
tice. and method upside down to
change a farm system. This is far
from the truth. Usually only small
changes are necessary.
Here is a farmer who is getting
very good crop yields. yet he says he
is not making money. We find there
is little we can do for the crops. but
found that his stock is being handled
at loss. He is putting good crops
through poor stock. He is running
efficient food through poor machin-
cry. In that case we get rid OF the
poor stock and put in a kind and
quality that will make a profit.
Sell two of the boarder cows and
put in one that pays profit. Sell the
old gelding and put on mare that
will raise a colt worth one-half to
of her purchase price at
weaving time. This is done every day.
1t is not theoretical"

BARLEY MAKES JUICY BACON

cattle Is nearly equal to corn.
You can't produce a better hog pas.
ture than by sowing barley in the
early fall. If the ground is suffi GENTLY
moist, putting the seed in thickly and
at depth OF three or four inches
This furnishes excellent winter graz
Ing until the ground freezes.
Barley also makes very nutritious
hay II sown thickly in the early
spring, cut in the Towering stage and
properly cured. The boards will then
be soft and will not affect the mouths
OF the animals eating it.
This crop does best on deeply plow-
ed soil. 1t is well to follow a crop
of potatoes with barley. In six.
years test at the Kansas agricultural
college this kind produced an average
yearly yield of 48.8 bushels an acre
10 bushels more than any other kind

IRRIGATION OF COTTON CROP
Much Depends Upon Conditions, Says
Prof. kyIe-Greatest Good Comes
From Conserving Water.

F. J. Kyle. dean of the school OF ag-
riculture of the Texas A and NJ. col
lege. has received this inquiry: How
would a halfinch of water applied by
subirrigation TO a cotton crop at the
time ii is most in need OF moisture
benefit the crop and increase the
yield. the water TO be applied directly
at the root OF the plant and covered
with dry soil TO stop evaporation. the
estimate being two and one-half quarts
OF water. equal TO one inch of rain
fall?"
To this Mr.. Kyle replies: 1t is i'm
possible TO say just how much one-hali
inch water would benefit cotton, so
much depends upon conditions. For
instance, II you would set aside two
plots OF one acre each planted in cot
ton in an arid section where there
was very little rainfall during. the
growing season. and on one OF these
acre plots apply one-half inch OF wa
ter to the roots OF the plants at the
time they needed the moisture and
on the other acre plot apply no water
at all. the benefit would depend on
when the next rainfall came.
IL the rainfall came within the next
few days, the application would not
be OF nearly so much benefit as in
case the drought should continue as
II would be too late for the rain to
do any sood for the non-irrigated cot
ton. In that case the irrigated cot
ton being able to hold up and con.
unue growing until the final rain
came. might be benefited 100 per cent.
1t Is quite a frequent occurrence in
this state for corn and cotton to be
reduced one-haif or more in yield on
account OF drought. Last spring we
had almost failure in corn crop due
to the lack OF rainfall just as the corn
was in silk. In a case like that. II
onehalf inch of water could be ap-
piled to the roots OF the plants il
could easily have resulted in a benefit
OF 90 to 10 per cent, and in some
cases probably more than that The
greatest good from irrigation would
come from applying the water under
the soil TO the roots of the plants so
as TO prevent as much evaporation as
possible. l should Judge that a half
Inch applied in this way would be
worth about as much more than an
Inch applied to the surface

Beginners in the poultry business
are likely to neglect their stock dur
ing the time they are not yielding
returns and often fail to figure the
future consequences. Such beginners
cannot be successful in the poultry
business. Constant care, good feed
ing and fresh water are absolutely
necessary at all times. This holds
good from the time the chicks are
hatched until they go into the laying
house.

Wheat and rye have about the same
composition, although wheat is some
what richer in protein. Rye is in gen.
eral tougher and harder to grind.
Both are quite digestible. but less so
than corn, on account of the larger
