SUCCULENT FEED FOR SHEEP
Most Flockmasters Have Been Slow
In Experimenting With silage-
Must Be Fed Properly.
By l.. l.. SIIAW.)


The use OF this succulent feed for
sheep has attracted the attention of
most farmers only during the past
few years. Although a few sheepmen
fed silage many years ago with good
result, most aockmasters have been
slow in giving it trial. Owing to
the wonderful increase in the use of
silos on farms, and owing to the
cheapness of silage as compared with
other succulent feeds, such as roots.
farmers are constantly raising the
question regarding the feeding of 81.
iage to sheep. A great deal has been
said of it's bad effects upon sheep. but
these have arisen either because an
inferior quality of silage was fed or
on account of carelessness on the part
OF the feeder in not feeding it prop
erly.
A good quality of silage is extreme
ly palatable and can be fed to all
classes of sheep with good results. II
must be borne in mind, however. that
silage which is either very sour. moldy
or frozen should not be fed.
The amount of silage reported In
feeding trials varies from one to five
pounds per head per day. The amount
to feed depends upon the class OF
sheep and the character OF the other
feeds comprising the ration. As a gen
eral rule from two to four pounds pei
head per day Is considered as much
as should be fed.

OATS IMPROVE MILK FLAVOR
Interesting Experiments Conducted at
Government Farm Favor Bran
and Corn Ration.

II has been asserted by some dairy
men that the feeding OF crushed oats
to cows will improve the flavor Of
milk. To ascertain the correctness Of
this theory a series Of experiments
was made by the bureau Of animal in
dustry of the United States depart
ment Of agriculture at the \&perimen-
tai dairy farm at Beltsville. Md. Six
cows were used in the experiment;
three were fed a grain ration Of corn
meal. bran, and cottonseed meal: the
other three were fed grain mixture
OF five parts crushed oats and one part
cottonseed meal A number Of sam
pies OF milk from the cows fed these
rations were submitted to various per-
sons In the dairy division and they
were asked to indicate their prefer
ence. In all, so opinions were passed
on various samples. OF these. 16
showed n preference for the milk from
cows fed on crushed oats: 25preferred
that from the bran and corn ration,
while nine expressed no choice. The
results show that in these rations, not
only was there no marked difference
In favor Of the crushed oatsas feed
to improve flavor, but, II anything. the
ration containing bran and corn was
more successful in producing a fine
favored milk.

WHERE APPLES CAME FROM
Two Varieties Of Fruit Found Wild
In Europe, but Region Near Cas-
plan Sea 10 Birthplace.
Try f.. =. POwELLD

There are two varieties OF apples
found wild in Europe, but the region
adjacent to the Caspian sea seems to
have been the birthplace Of the apple
as known In the east. Charred pieces
OF apples are found in the heaps o:
refuse left by the Lake Dwellers. who
occupied portions OF Europe before
any of the present races. These peo-
pie lived on platforms laid over piles
driven into the water-probably TO
protect themselves from animals, In
an era before metal weapons were
known. These specimens Of apples
are generally carbonized by heat. but
they show perfectly the internal
structure Of the fruit. These are five
types Of native American apples. all
of them crabs. John Smith wrote
from Virginia that he had found
some new crabapples. but they were
small and bitter" New Englanders
made the same report. The Soulard
has the reputation Of being the larg-
est and best Of these natives. Sprouts
OF this variety. like the Matthews. are
improved In size and quality. Selec-
tions might probably be made from
western thickets, of even better sorts
than are now known. believe the
blood Of the wild crab is in some OF
our best orchard apples.

The rest Of the cord wood is then

RENEWING THE FARM FlOCKS
Best to Keep Over Both YearIIne Hens

Considered as a breeder alone, her
value does not depreciate as long as
she produces good chicks. But We
must judge her value also by the total
amount OF her egg-yield, and we know
that the older she grows the fewer
eggs she will produce.
Experiment station results and prac-
tical experience go to show that It sell

two years old. except for breeding
uses.
Notwithstanding the fact that pul.
lets will lay more eggs than yearling
hens, l believe 1t pays to keep as many
yearling hens in the flock as pullets.
Many who keep a farm flock do not
consider the cost OF raising the pullets
to an reproducing age, while the
yearold hens are making a profit for
them.
