HOW TO TREAT EWES
AND CARE FOR LAMBS
Young Animals intended for
Breeding Stock Should Be
Weaned Before Five Months.

(From the United States Department Of
Agriculturs)
Lambs kept for breeding stock
should be weaned when from four to
i've months Of age. The lambs intend
ed for market, on the other hand,
should attain marketable weights be-
fore they are I'VE months Of age and
should be weaned ut the time they
are sold.
Lambs at weaving time should be
kept for four or i've days ut least ON
the old pasture. as they do not fret
as much as In q strange place. The
ewes should be removed to another
pasture as far away as possible from
the lambs. II the feed on this pasture
be a little scant, 30 much the better,
for this will help check the milk fiow.
The ewes and lambs should not be
turned In together again, for large
amount of milk from q eve that has
not been sucked for two or three days
Is liable to cause digestive disturb
ancea In the lamb.
At weaving time the ability Of eve
to produce good lamb is often ruined
because the necessary care Is not tax
en- to see that she Is dried OF prop
erly. A little care ut this time will be
well repaid. Two or three days after
the separation the ewes should be
MIXED out. All Of the milk need not
be drawn from the udder. but enough
should be taken to leave the udder
soft and pliable. Mark with colored
chalk ewes needing no further atten-
ton. In about three days the ewes
should be MIXED out again and the
drys marked. Further attention should
be given four or i've days later to
those not dry. No effort should be
spared to maintain every breeding ami
NAL In sound and useful condition.
