EsssntiaIs Necessary For Profitable
Production Of Wool and Mutton.
A few Of the essentials In the prob
lem Of sheep raising are referred to in
4 bulletin from the Pennsylvania sta
ton, says the Iowa Homestead. These
include: The willingness Of the farmer
to pay the proper attention to his flock
at the critical times Of the year; the
production Of lambs Of early maturity
that should preferably be marketed be-
fore the first Of July; the control Of
parasites In the flock by the sale Of
early lambs, rotation Of pastures and
flock management; the protection Of
sheep from dogs, by community inter-

est in sheep, by enforcing dog laws and
keeping sheep in protected quarters at
night; the utilization Of pasture to the
greatest degree; the feeding Of corn
silage with clover or alfalfa hay, sup
plemented with grain, to the breeding
ewes at definite periods; the selection
Of breeding sheep that possess merit in
wool, as well as in mutton character
constitutional vigor and health as re-
suit Of breeding and care in founda-
ton flock; cheap equipment which Of
fers protection, plenty Of ventilation
and dry bed the marketing Of prod
ucts Of wool and mutton with an under
standing of market values and demand.
1t is pointed out in this bulletin that
from fifteen to twenty-five ewes are q
sufficient number for any one without
experience to undertake as the nucleus
Of farm flock. 1t is presumed that
beginning is made with grades, but in
is strongly advised.
Experiments at the Wisconsin and
Missouri stations have shown that pure
bred mutton rams sire lambs that make
greater gains, reach a higher condition
Of flesh at less cost in amount Of feed
consumed and command higher mar
ket price than lambs sired by scrub.
The suggestion is made in this bulle-
tin that one or two pure bred ewes
should be added to the females of
grade flock. The lambs from the latter
may be kept and gradually the owner
can eliminate his grades as the number
Of pure breds increase, so that in a few
years, after experience is obtained in
handling the sheep, something worth
while will then be on hand to work
with.
While sheep require relatively little
labor in their care, at the same time
special attention is needed during the
breeding and lambing season, and that
is why experience in the handling Of a
small flock is needed before it is taken
up on anything like an extensive scale.
1t is scarcely necessary to refer to the
ability of sheep as weed destroyers, be-
cause it is well known fact that they
will consume upward Of 80 per cent Of
all the troublesome weeds found on
the farm. To be sure. they need some
thing besides weeds, but this is an adj
vantage that must not be lost sight Of
when sheep are being considered only
from the standpoint of mutton and
wool production.

of the members of the Germans gem

Following the capture OF Monte
Sisemol and adjacent heights from the
Italians, the invading Austro-German
armies in northern Italy suspended
their infantry operations and began
to pound the new mountain line OF
the Italians with their artillery.
This is in line with the strategy
the Austro-G German generals have en-
ployed in mountain fighting ever
since the beginning of the war
It is their aim to blast a path
through the Italians mountain de-

thrusts against them. A dispatch
from Rome says that the Austro-

great violence between the Piave and

Bennett Demands
Party Machine Aid
Says He'll Be at Republican
Headquarters To-day to
Insist on Support
BY BRIGGS

Ex-senator William NJ. Bennett, the
Republican nominee for Mayor, in a
letter Yesterday to Samuel S. Koenig,
chairman of the New York County Re-
publican Committee, demanded that the
machinery of the local organization be
put back Of his candidacy. He informed
Chairman Koenig that he would be at
the headquarters of the county COM
mittee, los West Fortieth Street, at
O'clock to-day to enforce his demand.
The county committee at its last meet
ing adopted a resolution. repudiating
Bennett.
Mr. Bennett based his demand on the
fact that he was the regular nominee
at the Republican primary, and de-
permit Manhattan to be lost 60 him by
neglect. He stated that after careful
canvass he was absolutely confident
that he would carry Kings County by
$4,000 votes.
Mr.. Bennett spoke at an open air
meeting in front of j. P. Morgan &
Co., at DrOdu ana W all streets, yes
terday noon, and at two district Re-
publican clubhouses in Brooklyn last
night.
At the MONDAY meeting the candi-
date declared that "the present condi-
ton of financial poverty of the city"
was due not only TO the ignorance of
finance and political economy shown
by the present administration. but
also to the eagerness Of the bankers
in encouraging the bond issues that
they might get their commissions. Mr..
Bennett also criticised the size of the
proposed budget for 1918.
When the Republican candidate ar
rived at Wall and Broad streets he
found a counter attraction on the
steps of the Sub Treasury Building in
the form of Liberty bond rally. with
a military band accompaniment. He
waited an hour and drew a large pro-
portion of the crowd that had been
listening 20 the Liberty Loan speakers.
