EFFICIENT EQUIPMENT FOR SHEEP FLOCK

for the storage of which no provision
Is made In this shed.
The windows of the shed should be
hung on center pivots to permit en-
trance Of air through their full size.
Sheep demand an abundance of light
and cannot possibly thrive where 1t is
damp and dark. For this reason the
number Of windows must be ample.
The doors used by the sheep are made
in two parts, the upper half being
hinged at its top to open upward and
outward. With such door, an abun-
dance of windows, and adequate roof

ventilation If proper care is taken in
the adjustment Ventilation, it should
be said, is one of the prime requisites
for any type of sheep building.
Such a shed as this affords good pro-
lection for sheep under any conditions,
and, If made 20 feet wide instead of 10
feet, may be used for winter lambing
The extra width enables detachable
lambing pens to be set up next to the
wall, leaving room enough at the rack
for the other ewes.

FEEDING GRAIN TO
SWINE ON PASTURE
Some Interesting and Valuable
Results Obtained at Minnesota
Experiment Station.

Feeding grain to swine on pasture
has given some very interesting and
valuable results at the Minnesota ag-
ricultural experiment station, as re-
ported by r. G. Ashby, in charge of
the swine work.
Mr.. Ashby fed various rations to
different lots of pigs, with some va
Ration In cost, with considerable diff
ferences In the results obtained.
The largest profit was made by
hogs settled on shelled corn and
tankage, on rape pasture, at feed
cost of S5.64 for 100 pounds of gain.
The profit was $217.79 per acre of
pasture.
The different groups fed were as
follows:
l. Three per cent of live weight in
shelled corn, with alfalfa pasture.
2. Four per cent of live weight in
shelled corn with alfalfa pasture.
3. Shelled corn self-fed, with alfalfa
pasture.
4. Four per cent of live weight in
shelled corn with two pounds of but
termilk per pig daily. and alfalfa pas
ture.
5. -Four per cent of sbelled corn
with very light tankage ration and
alfalfa pasture.
6. Three per cent of ground barley
with rape pasture.
Z. Three per cent of shelled corn
with rape pasture.
8. Four per cent of shelled corn
with rape pasture.
8. Shelled corn, self-fed, with rape
pasture.
10. Shelled corn, settled, tankage
and rape pasture.
The results from the feeding of
these different rations is shown in the
