The best breeding ewes are those
that are rather rangy. with good feed

will prove a better feeder and a bet

In buying ewes for breeding pur-
poses, do not pick the best looking
ewes in point of flesh. A man must
know how to choose breeding ewes.
just as he should know how to judge

there is any profit in grade ewes 1t

While good breeding has much to
do with a tendency to early breeding,
good feeding is also a very important
factor. Ewes that are we'll feshed
and thrifty will, as a rule, take serv

Why are pure-bred sheep the best
for mutton? Because both lambs and
sheep OF the medium grade lack the
condition and quality necessary to
bring the best prices on the market.
Poorly bred sheep. as a rule. have
long loosely coupled bodies with little
spring of rib and rough outline. and
are coarse and often paunchy. This
class OF animals is not desirable. and
market buyers make the best Of their
bad points.
A good thing to remember when
lambing time comes on: A lamb that
lis SO badly chilled that 1t appears 20
be dead. may be revived by pouring
down its throat a half pint Of warm
milk. into which a tablespoonful Of
gin has been poured. II there is no
gin in the house. dip the lamb in
a tubful of warm water, dry it OF with
q rough cloth and place 1t nea the
stove. Get some warm milk into its
stomach if possible, and in a few min
utes it will be as frisky as ever.
A bunch of sheep will clean up the
cornfield in which the stalks are left
stunning, III HE shape. 1ucy 6tIIp
of the blades and pick up every ker.
mel of stray corn left on the ground.
The great loss Of lambs is. in some
instances, due almost entirely to the
fact hat the ewes are allowed to run
down and become weak before wean
ing time.
Ewes with lamb need good attention
now. They should not be fed enouSh
to make them overfat, but should be
kept in a gaining condition. so that
at weaving time they will be strong
and sufficiently feshed to supply plen
ty of milk.
The quality of the market lamb de
ponds largely upon the first four weeks
of it's life. Given a good boost then
he will, with reasonably good care
prove very satisfactory at marke
time.
