PRODUCTIVE PERIOD OF EVE
Does Her Best at From Three to Six
Years of Aqe-Keep Her While
Teeth Remain Good.

The most productive period of the
average ewes life is from three to
six years of age. As a general propo-
sition, keep the eve as long as the
teeth remain good and she is produc-
ing lambs regularly.
OF course, if sheep are kept ccntinu-
ously on the same pasture, they are
liable to stOmach-worm infection, but
such infection more often proves seri-
Gus in the case of young lambs than
with older sheep.

PROPER TRAINING FOR COLT
Aecustom 1t to Eating Grain Before
Taking From Mother-ShouId
Be Halter Broken.

We never yet have weaned a colt
but that 1t was used to eating grain
before being taken from its mother,
consequently. there was practically no
loss in flesh or growing. says a writer
In an exchange.
We also have each colt halter bro
ken by the time 1t is ready to be
Weaned.
This thing OF letting colts run until
two and three years old before putting
a halter on them is not good business.

However, such large classification is
not possible in most localities, as the
larger amount of money necessary can
not be raised. The best plan, and the
most beneficial one, perhaps, would be
to hold an exhibition for weanlihgs and
yearlings only. If the community or
district has a fairly large number Of
purebred horses, separate classes could
be provided for purebreds and grades.
The question of having classes for
both light and heavy horses viii de
pend upon whether sufficient attention
is being given to the production of both
classes.
Financing an Exhibition
In securing the necessary funds to
finance such an exhibition as a colt
show a number of different plans have
been suggested. In Minnesota one
show is financed by the stallion own
ers, each giving $25 in cash prizes, to
be divided among the colts sired by
his stallion Another plan is TO have
the County Horse Breeders association
or the various farmers clubs contrib
ute sufficient money to finance the
show, while still another scheme is for
the local bank or banks to furnish the
money for premiums and other ex-
penSes.
However, the most popular asa COM
mon method is to go among the bust
ness men of the community and secure
subscriptions in sufficient amount to
pay all expenses OF the show.
All premiums should be designated
by neat, but inexpensive ribbons on
show, the year, and the classes to
which they belong.
Suitable Trophy.
While the premiums In the individual
classes should consist Of cash awards,
It is suggested that the championship
prize consist Of suitable trophy rath-

and nonproducers. One of the best
known authorities on scientific poultry
raising says that If he were assigned
the task of making the farm poultry
fiocks of this country double their re-
turn in profits he would accomplish it
by reducing the size OF the average
flock by one-haIf and putting Purebred
males with those left.
