then weigh between thirty-five and
fifty pounds. The market price Of win
ter lambs varies considerably, and it is
desirable to have a special market for
your product when possible. The live
lambs usually sell for Is to 20 cents
per pound. But more can be realized
by dressing them yourself and selling
the dressed carcasses direct to some
high class hotel or restaurant. The
dressed price should run 80 per cent
more than for live weight, and special
markets can be found that will be glad
to get them at from 35 to 40 cents per
pound dressed. The pelts bring in
enough money to pay for the dressing.
The profits from winter lambs great
ly exceed those from any other kind Of
mutton production. The care and la
Dor are greater during the time the
lambs are growing, but the crop Is dis
posed of within two months of birth
and at a higher price than spring
lambs that have taken care and atten-
ton for much greater length Of time.
Winter Landing comes at dull time
for the owner, allowing him to carry
on this part of the industry without
taking any time from his regular du-
ties In other lines. The ewes should
produce enough wool to pay for their
keep, and the lambs will not eat over
81 worth of feed during the short feed
ing period. They will sell for from SIS
to SO per head. Subtract the dollars
worth of food that they consume and
you have handsome return for your
labor and investment.
This is only one simple feature that
may be adopted with good results on
any farm, large or small. The increas-
Ing demand for beef, pork, mutton and
dairy products is quite in harmony
with the movement for the conserva-
ton Of soil fertility. That the time has
come when the farmer can profitably
feed his crops to stock there Is little
doubt. Our 1OO,0O0,O0O people need
meat and dairy products; our farms
need the soil building crops and the re-
sulting manure
Farmers keeping stock should plan to
raise the kinds of feed adapted to their
needs. Where these feeds are grown
rotation is unavoidable. Fortunately
the crops best suited to the needs of
stock are the very ones needed to re-
turn nitrogen and humus to the soil.
By growing clover, alfalfa, grass and
small grain crops in rotation and con-
verting them into meat and dairy prod
ucts 1t Is possible to maintain or In
crease the fertility of the land. Stock
farming provides for the growing Of
soil improving crops and feeding them
out on the farm. In this way more
than two-thirds of the plant food re-
moved by the crops is returned to the
soil in the form Of farm manure.
Hence advise the keeping Of few
cows on the smallest of farms. and
where there Is dairy of any size there
should be hogs and beef animals. The
calves born on the farm or at least a
number of them should be raised for
beef. BY using a silo and raising both
alfalfa and corn great deal can be ac-
complished on a small tract of land

! DECEMBER CARE OF TREES

The American Forestry association,
Washington, in Its bulletin Of advice
tells what to do for trees in December:
First.-In December fertilize with
well rotted manure all weakened or
backward trees and all valuable speci-
mems on the lawn. Dig the manure
into the soil around the tips Of the
roots away from the trunk of the tree
Do not expose the roots, and be csre-
full not to mutiliate the large roots.
Second.-Bolt all the trees that are
likely to split. The old fashioned band
placed around the trunk or branch Of
the tree Is bound to become too tight
for 1t and eventually girdle it. Boiling
Is better and does not injure the tree.
Third.-Commence cutting down all
trees marked for removal during the
early fall. Segregate the trees infested
with boring insects and disease and
see that the infested wood is burnt be-
fore next May. This applies particu-
larry to such trees as those infested
with the hickory bark beetle In hicko-
ries, the two lined chestnut borer in
oaks, and the bronze borer Of birches.
Fourth.-This Is a good season to
look over your spraying apparatus and
to see that the machinery and hose are
In good order. You will need the spray
ing apparatus in early March on your
apple and pear trees.
Fifth.-Take care Of the neglected
wounds on your trees, cutting Off any
loose bark and coating the exposed
wood with tar. This will prevent de-
cay and aid in healing the wound.
Sixth.-Repair tree guards on the
street and avenue trees. See that they
are in good order and that they have
not grown too tight for the trees dur
ing the past growing season,

Farmers Market Their Own Timbs,

Farmers MARKET Their Own Timber.
BY selling their timber in. local mar
kets wood lot owners often realize
much greater profit than they can get
from dealers, and at the same time
they make good wages for themselves
and teams during the winter. In one
instance a farmer made nearly twice
as much by numbering himself
This owner was offered 81 a thou
sand feet for his standing timber. He
sold the lumber later In nearby city,
cutting and hauling 1t himself, and
made 81 thousand feet, or 81 200
more than a dealer offered him. In
another case the owner realized $40 a
thousand feet by his own numbering.

This frame is set on the wagon box
sideboard. One or two men drive along
the edge of the root patch, each pulling
both hands full Of turnips and then
cutting the tops Off by drawing them
across the scythe blade. The roots fall
into the wagon and the tops are thrown
into the back end. These are hauled
to the barn and fed to the milk cows.
The frame Is moved along the side as

ATTACKS ON LABOR
LAWS ARE CHECKED

NEW YORK, June 25.-That the
mobilization of a great army Of
men and women in the industries to
serve the nation in war requires eff
ficient machinery and proper stand
ards, is the declaration made in the
second Special Bulletin on Labor
Laws in War Time" just issued by
the American Association for Labor
Legislation.
GAS men go to the front from in
dustrial pursuits, those remaining
must be kept fit to meet the inreased
demand for materials" the bulletin
states. "And as women enter in
dustry in rapidly increasing num-
bers, the need becomes even more
pressing for protective measures"
Equal pay for equal work with
out discrimination as to sex is
urged. women who really take
the places of men should receive
the pay of men," according to the
bulletin. accepted wage stand
ards, built up through years of
struggle, should not be undermined
under cover of war necessity No
such necessity has appeared"
Labor placements should be under
public control, according to the AS
ISOLATION, and the whole system ex-
panded around federal, state, and
city public employment bureaus.
Safety First and Health First
good business always-are pressing
requirements now that production
has to be increased and workers are
pouring into employments new to
them" the bulletin states. "Vigi-
lance, too, must be exercised to pro-
tect women entering industries from
bad surroundings, injurious tasks
and exploitation-moral or physical.
Complete protection of working men
and women in the pressure of war
and the guarding of the children
cannot he secured without strict adj
minstration of labor laws"
Officials entrusted with the ad-
ministration of labor laws in prac-
tically all the states. reports the bull
letiu, have Indicated their intention
to maintain rigidly the protective
masures for labor during the war.
attacks upon labor laws have been
checked by overwhelming evidence
that prevention of speeding up and
overstrain is true war necessity.
Practical tests have shown that max
imum production of materials de-
pend upon protection of workers"
