WINTER CARE OF THE SHEEP

Give SuccuIent Food.

II the sheep are neglected and al

winter sets in the fleece will be in
jured in both weight and quality.
A fleece of good quality cannot be
grown on poor half-starved sheep.
If the ewes are allowed to get poor
during the winter the chances are that
the lambs will be weak and will per-
ish for lack of nourishment and from
cold. while the lambs from we'll

stand the cold if they should happen
to be dropped when the weather is
cold.
The dams will have more milk for
their young, too, If they are well cared

Sheep need some succulent food dur
ing the winter. They should have
some rough feed such as corn stover
or clover hay, and, above all, they
should have ration rich in both pro-
tein and mineral matter.

GUARD AGAINST MUSTY OATS
When Fed Continuously There Is Like
ihood That Severe Intestinal
Troubles May Result.

Many state experiment stations are
warning the farmers to beware of
feeding their stock, especially the
horses, musty oats during the coming
winter. When fed continuously there
is great likelihood that severe intes-
final trouble and probably blind stag
gers may result.
Blind staggers is disease caused
by mold which thrives on denied corn,
damp barley, oats and spoiled feeds of
all kind When it is necessary to feed
grain in this condition a little common
salt should be given with the grain at
all feelings.
Wherever the animals show any ten
dency towards constipation, admins
ter one-half ounce of fluid extract of
aloes or one-half pound of Epson salts
as drench. Clean hay and fresh wa
ter and salt are excellent in easing
the effects from such grain.

STRAW SHED FOR LIVE STOCK
Satisfactory and inexpensive Method
of Securing Ample Protection
for Farm Animals.

A stable that will protect from cold
ed with little expense when straw is
plentiful Each COW, If to be tied,
needs about fifty square feet of floor
space to allow for manger, feed alley,
place for her to stand and room to
get behind her for milking, cleaning,
etc. Young stock will need about half
as much space. A barn 16x90 feet or
one 32x45 will furnish room enough for
twenty cows and ten head of young
stock
A straw shed for cattle should be
seven or eight feet high. The construc-
ton of such buildings is very simple.
Posts are usually set in the ground
eight to twelve feet apart, and strong
timbers put on top of these with poles
close enough together to carry the
straw on top of the timbers. Walls
are constructed by making two walls
two or more feet apart and packing
with straw. These walls may be made
of poles, boards or woven wire, as de-
sired.
Hogs will require from ten to fif-
teen square feet of floor space each
in a straw shed. Fifty hogs will re-
quire a shed about 20x30 feet in size.
1t is better to keep the hogs in a sep
arate building from the cattle. The
shed for hogs need not be more than
four or five feet high 1t is advisable
to make the walls tight, using woven
wire, or something equally good, so the
hogs will not work out through the
wall

LIGHT HEIFERs FOE FEEDING
Buyers Estimate Doubling Of Weight
by Next July or August as Result
of Long Rest.

The tendency to feed heifers still
prevails with many cattle feeders. Ex-
travagantly high prices, seemingly,
are being paid for light heifers to go
into the pastures and stalk fields to be
roughed through the winter and then
corn fed on grass next summer for the
fat cattle market.
A doubling of weight by next July
or August is about the estimate these
buyers are figuring on as ten months
result of growth and gain. In case
any prove to be bred, they are no spe-
cial disappointment, as the calf with
the mother present good money in
vestment for the market of next SUN
mer.

SUCCESS IN PRODUCING PORK
Make Healthy, Vigorous Hogs
Some Grain Is Necessary.

Many now realize the fact that the
growing of pasture grasses and forage
crops that make healthy, vigorous
hogs of good quality is the basic factor
in successful pork production. They
are raising hogs at big profit.
OF course those who are successful
realize the fact that certain amount
of grain feed is needed to grow hogs
with greater profit, but they use this
grain only as a supplement to the
feeds harvested by the hogs In the
pastures and fields.
