RAISING SHEEP.
Experiment Shows Most Economical
Method TO Pursue.

The Illinois Station experimental
with sheep TO show the most econoIn-
zeal methods OF raising lambs and
maintaining breeding ewes Sixty
lambs dropped in March. 1915. when
weighed July is. averaging SIS pounds
per head. On the basis OF current
market values on July 3. this lot of
lambs was worth s3s0.so. These so
lambs were raised by IS ewes The
average cost per eve and ser lambs to
feed and pasture from March p to
July 16 was s2.52. The same ewes
were fed for the entire period Of preg-
nancy GAS days) preceding the birth
OF their 1914 lambs at an average cost
OF IS cents per head. This gives the
cost of a eve and her lamb at s3.2S
for 255 days. during which time the
lamb is made ready for market. The
value OF the ewes fleece would more
than offset the cost OF her pasturage
during the remaining 1io days from
July 16 to November 3.
Another interesting and valuable
| suggestion from this experiment is
found in the fact that 20 lambs raised
/ with their mothers upon forage crops
\ weighed pounds per head more than
| those raised upon blue grass pasture
1 (grain was fed in each easel and were
: sold at a higher price per pound
| bringing Sf.55 per head more than the
blue grass lambs. The difference in
F! cost Of raising was slightly in favor OF
4 the forage lot while the ewes from
that lot had a market value. when ths
lambs were weaned, Of $3.50 per head
| more. than those kept on blue grass.

SOY BEANS AND CORN.
Mixture of the Two Makes Evenly
Balanced Silage.

a recent bulletin of the New York
Cornell Station shows how soy beans
have been successfully grown by prac-
teal farmers as supplement to corn
in silage making. The advantage Of
such a combination lies in the fact
that soy beans are nitrogen gatherers,
and hence are richer in nitrogenous
compounds than corn. Mixed corn and
soy bean silage is therefore a more
evenly balanced feed than corn sill
age alone
Soy beans grown for silage should
be harvested when the pods are most
ly filed and the leaves have not be-
gun 20 fall of. They may be har-
vested with a side-delivery reaper or
with a Irvine binder.
Soy beans cut for silage must be
hauled from he field and mixed with
corn fodder at the cutting box in or
der to have the mixture OF corn and
soy beans evenly distributed in the
silo. In this way any proportion of
beans to corn may be made at will. It
is not wise to use more than one
load OF beans to two Of corn and one
20 four will be found to enrich the
silage noticeably. Soy beans alone.
because Of their high protein content,
tend to make a strong smelling OBJ
jectionable silage. Their dilution
with corn fodder in the silo reduces
the danger of strong odors and makes
the sflage more nutritious and not
less palatable than that from corn
only. The yield of soy bean fodder
can not be so heavy as the yield OF
corn from the same ground On q
! hxed area, therefore. the total yield

perience he constructs a business
plan. Whenever a manager loses the
confidence of the members, il Is better
to replace him with a manager who
can lead a cooperative association to
success unless he has real coopera-
ton from the members. In coopera-
tive circles the disloyal member is the
chief element of failure.
II would appear that owing to the
very fine principle of mutual help in
volved, those forming a cooperative
organization would be consistently
loyal in their mutual relationship. But.
on the otherhand, unless exceptional
care be exercised by the leaders an or
ganization from the beginning will be
bourdened with drones, cheats, dead
beats and traitors.
When a grower joins a cooperative
organization and then refuses to pat
ronize it, he is a drone- He can not
excuse himself even on the ground of
help secure proper conduct Of the bus
mess.
If in selling through his. organiza-
ton producer endeavors to pass on
shody. poor-grade products. which in
jure the reputation of the body OF
which he is a member. he is a cheat.
The member who uses the special
and private information of the asso-
citation in making sales outside. with
out contributing to its sport. is a
deadbeat.
The man who joins a cooperative
enterprise and then through subtle
| ways endeavors to obstruct it's pro-
gress and defeat its purposes is trail
| tor.
Those experienced with coopera.
tive organizations have known al
these types. They are to be found III
practically every community. They
| are the greatest enemies of agricul.
ture and agricultural cooperation. Il
| allowed to dominate with their dis.
honest practices, they will sap tn,

strength OF the undertaking. and re.
duce the whole to a state of miserabl,
