ATTENTION NEEDED
BY A SHEEP FLOCK
Keep FIeeceS Clean and Free
From BurS-FurniSh Plenty
of Good, Fresh Water.

If it is worth while keeping a few
sheep, it is worth while keeping good
ones.
Remove any members that may be
ailing to a place where they can be
well cared for.
Don't let the ram run down during
the breeding season, and give him
good care afterwards.
Sheep require about the same pas
turage acreage, weight for weight, as
do cattle; sheep thrive on a shorter
bite.
Keep the sleeps fleece clean and
free from burs, if you wish to get the
top price Of the market for your wool.
The age at which a ram ceases to
be useful depends largely upon his
inherent vigor, and the amount Of
service he has to do.
Grain never gives such large re-
turns as when it is fed to young
lambs.
While it is advisable to see the
sheep often while they are on pasture,
still it is not necessary to stay with
them all the time; and good results
may be obtained with plenty of good
water, salt and feed, and a weekly
visit, if the dogs do not trouble them.
If, however, sheep-killing dogs are
around, be on your guard with good
shotgun.
A pen or creep should be so covered
as to protect the grain from rains,
and should have a trough in it, in
which the grain should be kept all
the time.
The lambs will grow and thrive
wonderfully, and when weaning-time
comes, they may be taken away from
the ewes without any setback at all.

Although so great a variety Of
shapes has been designed for children,
those that suggest the bonnet have
outdistanced all others in point Of
popularity. But little variations in
shape, and clever new ideas in trim
ming, save these pretty and childish
bits of headwear from becoming mo-
notonous.
Two of the best ideas in trimming
are shown in the picture given here.
In the bonnet at the left, the crown
is sloping, higher at the front, and
the bTim curves up both at the back
and front, suggesting the poke bonnet
of blessed memory. 1t is trimmed
with white ribbon having a picot edge
in color and buds made of satin, with
long stems trimmed in a wreath eff
feet about the hat. A bow Of the rib
bon is posed at the front and tucked
fat to the crown.
The shape at the right is a famil-
lar mushroom" model of hemp braid
pressed with ridges over the crown,
extending from front to back and
from side to side. These are placed
in the shape by way Of variety and
add nothing to its attraction
Daisies, June roses and forget-me-
nots form a wreath for trimming, and
behind each daisy a length Of ribbon
In brown or some other dark color is
folded and sewed to the hat, resting

Grapes Are Chic.

AS usual in the spring of the year,
the fruit OF the vine appeals to fash
ion. Grapes are immensely chic, not
only on spring millinery, but In the
form of corsage ornaments on eve
ming gowns. A lovely little dance
frock Of white tulle over silver green
pussy willow silk has punches of pale,
translucent grapes on the shoulders
and at the girdle. Very smart, on the
other hand, is a spring turban OF black
milan trimmed with black and green
grapes and black velvet leaves. With
this hat is worn an entirely new veil
Of sheer black mesh appliqued with
green and bronze velvet leaves. The
pattern is so delicately applied. and

A street suit, cut on conservative
lines, which manages to be up to the
minute in its style, deserves more
than a passing glance. The attrac-
tive suit shown here accomplishes
these things and compels attention be-
cause of its excellence. There is ev-
cry reason for buying good material
in suits that must stand much wear,
and every reason to expect them to
Outlast a single season and come in

In the suit pictured, made of serge,
the skirt is moderately wide with the
fullness laid in broad pIaits at each
side. 1t is little longer than ankle
length and finished with a three-inch

to be worn without a belt, and is fitted

The jacket is cut with straight lines
like box coat and is confined in a
high waist line by a narrow belt of

neck is finished with a collar of silk,
wired to roll gracefully.

binary farm if bred to a good stallion
should produce several good colts
every year, besides doing the ordinary
farm work To secure the best results
the brood mare that does the farm
work must be given the best of care
and attention.
The use of silage as a horse feed
still is a debated question. Some
horsemen have used it successfully
and others have had disastrous results.
All silage fed to horses should be
sweet and fresh Moldy or spoiled
silage also is an unsafe feed for
horses because of the danger of caus-
ing colo. The silage should be made
Of fairly mature crops, and it should
be stored in the silo properly.
If you don't speak to the horse ev-
cry time you pass behind his heels,
you may wake up some morning with
a skinned head or a broken bone.
When a horse hears a racket behind
him, sometimes he doesn't wait to see
what it is, but whacks away at it with
both feet.
Be careful with the colt you are
breaking this spring. Don't try to
do it ali in one day; If you do you
may not only break him to work, but
you may break his heart as well. Get
him used to pulling gradually. 1t isn't
reasonable to expect a colt to go out
in the field hitched to a disk or plow
and do as much as the old seasoned

There is nothing more profitable
to the average farmer than the raising
Of few good draft horses" says DR..
C. w. McCampbeIl, secretary of the
state live stock registry board, pro
vided he has plenty of pasture and &C
cess to good stallion"
If a good stallion is not standing
for service in a community, the man
who has at least five or six good farm
mares can afford to own his own stall
lion and use him as a work horse. A
coming two-year-old stallion can be
bought for approximately $500 and,
taken in hand at this age, he makes an
excellent work horse.
The raising of draft horses is differ
ent from that Of any other live stock
On the farm. Important factors are
good food and attention. Good breed
ing gives the possibilities, but good
feeding is necessary to bring this out
to it's fullest extent.
It is better for the man of limited
means, believes Doctor McCampbell,
to raise horses only as a by-product,
because the exclusive raising Of draft
horses for market requires consider
able capital. The returns at first are
slow, for draft horses must be six
years old before they are ready for
market. The man who has other cash

cheapest way is. of course, to begin
with a sitting of eggs, or perhaps two
or three, and work up gradually from
that.
1t is a common saying that there
is more in the feed than in the breed. -
This is very true, for any breed, prop
erly fed and cared for. will be sure to
give good returns, if the strain is good.
And right here is where the caution
should come in. In buying fowls for
the flock, do not be satisfied with any
thing but pure-blooded fowls.
Nearly everyone has some prefer
ence, either of size, color or other
qualities, and there are none of the
standard breeds but what have much
to recommend them. So if you wish
to keep Brown Leghorns, or Buff
Orpingtons, or Black Minorcas, you
will be perfectly safe in doing so, no
matter what someone else may say in
favor of other breeds. But when once
you have adopted a particular kind.
stick to it.
When you are selecting your fowls,
insist on having nothing but good,
young birds. Throw out all the old
hens; they have seen their best days
Before you try to pick out your
fowls, study up well on the character
istics of the breed you have chosen.
If the hens are to weigh five pounds,
standard weight, see that yours come
pretty near to that weight.
Read everything on the poultry
question that you can get hold of. Do
not be afraid of being called Chick
en- crank" or a :'hen granny" When
people want good stock, they always
go to some chicken crank" to get
it. 1t is a good advertisement for
your business to show that you are
wholly interested in it.
Watch your flock. Experience is
what counts. Get acquainted with
your hens They will soon learn to
know you, and there are no finer pets,
or more profitable ones, than ten or
a dozen handsome hens.
A well-kept flock of hens means a
steady income-enough to keep you in
spending money while you are wait
ing for your crops to grow. That one
thing is enough to recommend poul-
try keeping as a suitable side line"
for the boy farmer.

LET SUNLIGHT INTO
THE ORCHARD TREES
Nature VIII Take Care of Shade
After Intelligent Pruning
Has Been Done.

Cut oct the useless brush in your
old trees and give the sun a chance
to reach every part of them.
Of course the fruit must have more
or less shade, but nature will take
care of that after intelligent pruning
has been done.
When the fruit buds come very
thick, most people take it as a sign
of a big yield. but when fruit grows
too thick1y it must necessarily be
very small.
Experts have no conscience when
it comes to thinning fruit The way
they pick on the buds-often destroy
ing four where they leave one-is
enough to give an amateur the shivers.

SCHOOLS AND SHOPS JOINED
New York City Firms Pay Pupils
While Working and Learning
Under Cooperative Plan.

New York city is undertaking an ex-
pertinent in cooperative schooling as
part of a broad plan of industrial edu-
cation, according to the New York
Evening Post The board of educa-
ton, in cooperation with number of
manufacturing concerns and nine of
the high schools, is arranging for stu
dents in pairs to alternate one week in
the shops of these concerns and one
week at school. The following indus
tries are already represented in the
plan: machine shops, die casting shops,
motor car concerns, railroad compa-
MES, real estate offices, electric light
and power companies, the drafting
roof of large vehicle company and
several commercial companies. Con-
tinuation classes have also been
started.
These various manufacturing estab-
lishments have been cooperating in
this experiment during the last few
weeks, and others are preparing to
accept the plan later on. while many
others have expressed a willingness to
take it up when industrial conditions
improve The number of pupils par

When the material for a suit Of this

EASIER TO PREVENT
THAN TO CURE ROUP
Most Satisfactory Method En-
pIoyed by Expert PouItrymen
of Treating Disease.
Ry ]. C. HALPIN, Wisconsin Expert
ment Station.)

(Ry J. G. HALPIN, Wisconsin Expert
ment Station.)
An ounce of prevention is worth a
pound of cure.
It's the old, old rule and it works as
well with poultry as with anything
else
Prevention, expert poultrymen tell
US, is the most satisfactory method of
treating roup.
This annoying and wasteful disease
can be prevented by keeping the poul-
try house dry, well ventilated and
clean; by forcing the fowls to exercise
on cold wet days in a deep litter Of
dry straw; by breeding from strong
vigorous birds; by feeding clean and
wholesome feeds and by taking every
precaution to keep the disease from
the farm and flock.
If any of the birds do develop roup
or extremely bad colds, they should
be removed from the flock and the
houses disinfected with a coal-tar dis
infectant or a per cent solution of
carbolic acid. Unless the birds are
valuable it is advisable to kill and
bury all sick fowls With all birds
that are worth the time necessary to
give them individual treatment, the
following method will prove success
full
Thoroughly clean the nostril and
eye of all the cheesy material that
has collected. Inject into the nostril
with a syringe a saturated solution of
permanganate of potash and dust bo-
ric acid into the eye and nostril. This
treatment must be followed several
times a day until decided improve
ment is noticed when the permanga-
nate of potash can be omitted. The
boric acid should be continued until
the nostrils are dry and all enlarge
ment of the eye has disappeared. 1t
is not advisable for most people to
attempt to remove the mass that col
lects beneath the eye by an operation
and if taken in time the other treat
ment will prove effective.
The first symptom of roup is a wa
terry discharge from the eye and q
thin, yellow discharge from the nos
tril. The eye then becomes enlarged
due to this material filing up the
space around the eye.
When the first symptoms of cold
appear. begin using permanganate of
potash in. the drinking water. Make
then pour enough of this in the drink
ing water every day to give it viO-
let or wine color.

There is no part OF farming more

there is no branch that offers him
better chance OF success. Even a
very small boy can manage a small
flock of chickens successfully.
1t does not cost much to get started

business. The equipment need not
cost much, and, in fact, most of the
needed coops and fixtures can be built
by almost any ambitious boy with very
little expenditure outside of his own
work. Then a small outlay for eggs,
or a trif1e larger one for stock. and
he is ready for business.
There are several ways of starting
a flock. The best plan is the one
that best suits the pocket, the circum-
