loss. II lamb-creep can be arranged
from the sheep corral to an al
falfa pasture. the lambs will soon
learn what it is intended for and will
do far better on it than If confined to
a dry yard. Newly seeded alfalfa can
be pastured with less danger Of bloat
than an old field. and the packing Of
the ground by the sheep passing over
1t Ia frequently great benefit to the
alfalfa.
AS roughage for fattening sheep
alfalfa hay has no equal, and cases OF
bIoat from the hay are exceedingly
rare. Il can be fed either whole or
cut, and fed with grain. Many prefer
this method of feeding, claiming that
there is less waste by it. In feeding
experiments nothing has been found
for roughage that equals alfalfa for
fattening sheep. In an experiment
at the Kansas station, alfalfa and
prairie hay we're compared as rough
ages. In the test the grain ration was
corn and cottonseed meal for both
lots. Those receiving alfalfa hay made
an average daily gain Of 1886 pounds
per head, while the lot on prairie hay
made only .1sS pounds per head daily.
the alfalfa lot making almost twice as
great gains. The alfalfa seemed to
give the lambs a better appetite and
they were always ready for their grain,
and as soon as their grain was cleaned
up they were ready for the alfalfa.

MANAGEMENT OF RUNT PIGS
Excellent Practise to Place Them In
Pasture by Themselves to Avoid
Jostling and crowding.
(Ry ". z. PuRDuE.A


Some runts are naturally weaklings,
while others ara the result Of injuries
or undertaking. The poor feeder will
have more runts In his herd than the
good feeder-no question about that
We always place ours in lot or
field by themselves, where they will
have good pasture, and chance to
eat their meals without being knocked
and jostled around by their larger
mates. The poor things never have
half a chance when allowed to run
with the herd, and in consequence
they will never pay for the feed they
consume.
By separating them, however, and
giving these runts some special care
they ought to return some profit.
Ground grain mixed into thick
slop with milk, is what the runts need,
instStd OF an exclusive diet of ear
corn. Then keep them free from lice
and provide them with warm shelter,
SO that all the profit will not be chilled
out in damp or cold weather.

HEARD OVER THE FARM PHONE
Profitable Practise to Sell or Ship Eggs
Every Day--Pure Food Gives the
Best Flavor.

Fresh eggs are all the cry from the
folks down town these days. All
right, too. We don't like to eat old,
stale eggs ourselves. For this and
other reasons it Is fine thing to ship
or sell every day II possible.
Down cellar Is q good place to keep
the eggs If you are compelled to hold
them few days. Fix up little rack
with Stats to lay them on so the air
may circulate about them all the time.
This will help to keep the favor good.
There are those who claim that they
can tell what kind Of food has been
given hen to eat. just BY the taste
OF the egg. fnfs is getting down to
a pretty fine point. but 1t ia no doubt
a fact that good, clean, pure feed does
give an egg better flavor than that
which is half spoiled. or entirely 80.
You cannot blame your neighbor for
not keeping up his share of the line

The woman who finds garden work
too exhaustive may transform 1t into
a healthful exercise by giving it her
time in the early morning or twilight
hours.
1t is worth while to know what your
hired man talks about when he is
alone with the boys. A good man
can do them deal Of good; and a
bad one-well, you had better let him
go just as quickly as you can, be-
fore you lose your boy body and soul.

take when he breeds trotting horses

A happy couple were on their way

a folded paper from his pocket, said:

EXCELLENT FOR SHEEP
ALFALFA ALMOST iNpsPENSA-
sLETo LIVE STOCK GROWER.
From Comparative obseurity II Has
Come Into Prominence During Last
Ten or Fifteen Years for
Breeding Animals.
By R ]. KINZER)

-
The use of alfalfa cannot be too
strongly urged with sheep, either the
breeding or fattening stock As the
method of farming has become more
intensified and the open range grows
less each year, an acre of alfalfa must
be made to take the place of many
acres Of range pasture.
Sheep, being ruminants, are able to
handle much more bulky feed than
horses. A breeding flock of sheep can
be carried through the winter season
very successfully with but little grain
In addition to alfalfa hay. Ordina-
rily the first cutting of alfalfa is not
as good for sheep as the second and
third cuttings, as it is usually coarse
and stemmy, and sheep do not eat
these stems readily.
1t Is about as safe to pasture old
sheep on alfalfa as 1t is cattle. They
thrive on it, and make excellent gains;
but sheep bloat easily and there is
likely to be a little loss from this
source. Lambs can be pastured on
alfalfa with but little danger Of bloat,
and the way they grow on alfalfa is
a delight to the shepherd They should
never be put on the pasture, when
they are empty and hungry, and 1t is
always well to allow them access to
some dry feed and keep them of
the alfalfa until the dew is of; also
on damp days. A mixture Of alfalfa
and brome-grass or alfalfa and or
chard grass is a safer pasture than
alfalfa alone.
A flock OF ewes and lambs can be
grazed for a short time each day on
alfalfa with but little danger OF any

The dominating instinct in man Is

consciousness, commonly known as
the sub-conscious mind, and in these
dark and forgotten corners many
strange things are stored, only wait
ing for the opportunity when they
may come forth to puzzle and con-

There is nothing mysterious or ter

laws of the universe, of which we are
part, we frankly consider ourselves

from an incomprehensibly remote past
to an equally incomprehensible and re.

We deem 1t not at all strange, mere.

with the fact, that there are handed
down to US strong memories out of the
remote past in the form of striking re.

still more remote. All inherited traits
are but cell memories; then why
strange or mysterious that there should
be handed down to US in the same way
and from the same source out of that
misty past, dim memories, vague and
nebular. but none the less memories,

In these latent Impressions will be
