REASONABLE CARE FOR SHEEP
Most Of Success With Flock lies With
Increase-Pastures Help Out
Feeding Problem.

TO make the most Of sheep ono
must give them reasonable care at
least. Most of the profit lies in the
success with the increase, and If they
are allowed to go through the summer
in poor, scrawny condition, it will take
more feed to finish them in the fall,
and the ones that are kept for breed
ing stock will be unfit to start into the
winter.
Our green pastures will help US out
greatly in feeding them, and in the
fall we will have our green corn and
perhaps sorghum to feed, but no mat
ter how plentiful the feed, we should
not fail to supply them with plenty OF
clean water.
