BY JAMES j. MONTAGUE.
MIR. SHAK ESPEARE.

Pretty soft for the latter-day playwright
His Up-to-date drama ne fills
With ferryboat crashes and motor car smashes.
All highly productive of thrills
He throws in the phone the ticker
lie works up wheat
And big private yachts about through his plots
Until you're knocked off Of your seat.
Consider poor hapless Bill Shakespeare
Who fought his way up to success
Devoid Of the aid of a gambling house raid
or even subway express!
No radiograms tapped n transit
Grabbed Brutus' involved little game
Ophea. alas, couldn't the gas
But William out just the same
With nothing but murder and battle,
And both in a primitive state,
Bill turned out his plays and lived III his days
on bare 10 percent of the gate.
He lacked every trick that the playwright
Today must employ for thrill
Yet the pace that he they following yet
Some little genius Bill!

The feeding and fattening Of west.
ern lambs should increase very mate
rally in Kansas in the future. There
is an abundance Of roughage which
goes to waste annually on the average
farm which could be utilized by feed
ing it to lambs. These conditions to-
gether with the dry feed lots and open
winters make lamb feeding very At
tractiv0 in this state.
Equipment: The cost Of equipment
is very small All that would be nee.

be realized some sort of shed open

which would give the lambs proteo.
tion from damp weather.
The feed lot should be selected and
arranged to give the best possible
drainage as there is nothing that will
cause lambs to do as poorly as wet
quarters.
The feed hunks should be so planned
and constructed as to make feeding as
convenient as possible. These hunks
may be constructed in a way that
grain and hay may be fed together or
so that they may be fed separately.
The latter is preferable where little
space is available.
Where and What Kinds Of Lambs
to Get: Lambs can be bought on the
live stock market and on the range.
Where only carload or so is to be
purchased, they may be bought

to sixty pounds make a very good
weight to put in the feed lot. Where
the lambs are to be grazed for a short
time before putting into the feed lot
a lighter weight lamb would be pre-
ferred.
Care Of Lambs After Shipping:
Lambs that have been in the cars for
some time should be fed carefully at
first to avoid loss When lambs are
hungry and given all the feed they
will eat they are likely to eat too
much. This may cause bloating which
often results in death. When the
lambs are taken off the car they
should be given small amount Of
rough. feed and a limited amount OF
water. The feed should then be grad

turned on grass they should be filled
with dry feed and turned on the grass
for only a short time each day until
they become accustomed to the new
feed. Great care should be taken not
to turn lambs on damp grass whom
they are first turned on pasture.
Before the lambs are put in the
feed lot 1t is good plan to feed them
a small amount Of oil or cottonseed
meal. as this will teach them to eat
grain.
