Marks of Respect.
Immediately after the news of his
death was received, flags were half
maSted on both the new and old capt.
toll buildings, and deep concern was
felt among officials and employees in
the Statehouse, regardless of political
belief For a time the news of his
death was the principal topic of con-
versation, and it seemed for a while
that there had come an unconscious
lull in the routine duties in the prin~
cipal offices, out of respect for the
man who had once been the states
chief executive.
Mr. Morrison's son, John, is a stu
dent at Bowdoin college. He has been
advised of his fathers death, but on
Mr., Morrison's advice, he will not
come home for the funeral.

 allow them the freedom of the pas ture during the day time and they know when they need to go to shelter as we'll or better than I do, and l al ways let them be the judge. Of course when the time of drop ping comes it is best to keep them in small pens for few days, but unless the weather is very bad it is not best to keep them too closely confined, as it will tend to make them tender and, as the young lambs are rather tender. anyway, everything that will strength en them should be provided for them
 If you wonder why your yearlings do not fatten readily, an examination of their mouths will doubtless show that they are shedding their first teeth and cannot eat well.
 It does not pay to grind feed for sheep. In fact, they do better when they grind their own.
 Nothing better than turnips for sheep, and nothing is more easily raised.
 More sheep are made sickly and weak by improper ventilation than by exposure.
 A sheep does not mind cold weather so long as it is not wet weather.
 Force the lambs after they are four months old if you want to get the best market prices.
 We have seen some good orchards destroyed by pasturing sheep in them when the trees were very small.
 Sheep will injure trees by rubbing against them and eating off the bark, and nothing but a wire netting will prevent them from doing it.
 The eve should be kept in moderate ly good flesh, and at lambing time should be strong and able to take care of her lamb.
 A sickly lamb at weaning time sell dom grows into a profitable sheep.

(By R. B. RUSHING.)

(By K. E. ROSHlNG.)
 The feeding of breeding ewes is an operation that l find is not thoroughly understood by many farmers, especially those who have just a few sheep as a side line.
 I see flocks too often that are all running together, the ewes that are expected to raise lambs for the market and to supply the future breeding ewes, and the others that are being prepared for the market, all feeding upon the same kind and quantity of food, and running together.
 This practice I have found to be a very bad one, as the breeding ewes, if you intend to get the best results, re- quire entirely different feeding.
 Ewes that are carrying young lambs should be fed on feed that will tend to develop the young as we'll as nourish the mother, while those intended for the market should be fed more on fat tening foods.
 It is a mistake to overfeed ewes with lambs, as it is underfeed.
 Also 1t is not best to allow the Dreed- ing ewes to run with the rest of the flock, as they are too often worried with the others.
 There is another point in the han ding of sheep that is, think, too often neglected, which may to some who have never tried it seem rather silly, and that is to never allow them to run on the same pasture long at time.
 They do much better when they are changed from one pasture to another very often.
 Sheep like a fresh short bite and when they are changed from one pas ture to another every little while they have just the kind of grazing they want. This is especially valuable with breeding ewes.
 As to water for the sheep. Provide the very best water that is to be had, never allowing them to drink from stagnant pools, which often contain all kinds of disease germs. In fact, when they can possibly do otherwise they will not drink such stuff.
 The sheltering of breeding ewes is

TANkAGE AN IDEAL
 BROOD SOW RATION
When Mixed With Corn Strong, Healthy Pigs Are Produced
 at Minimum Cost.

Ten or fifteen years ago there was considerable complaint of tankage causing trouble when fed to breed sows. These complaints seemed to have been due to low grade of tankage. or feed ing 1t in too large amounts. During recent years there has been very little complaint.
 At the Iowa station they have found. after several years of careful experi- menting, that a mixture of about fif- teen parts of corn to one part of tankage makes an ideal brood SOW ra- tion, producing strong, healthy pigs at minimum of expense, with feed prices as they generally prevail.
 If the farmer feeds his average SOW not more than one-half pound of tank age daily, and if he depends for the most part on ration of about fifteen parts of corn to one part of tankage, he will get good results from tankage. He should be sure, however that he is giving a good grade of tankage. The fertilizer grade of tankage. when fed to sows, often produces bad results.
