HOW YOU CAA BEST
 WINTER SHEEP
Raising Early Lambs Profitable
 Business on Any Eastern Farm.

Shelter, proper feed and good man agement are tho requisites in bringing sheep successfully through the winter season. While some shelter is neces- sary, close housing is not advisable, especially with ewes in lamb. Large, dry yards in which the sheep have plenty of room for exercise ahe the first requirement.
 Seven or eight square feet of floor space in a shed is necessary for an average size sheep. The fleece affords sufficient warmth in dry weather and shed or sheep barn is protection from the storms On dry nights the sheep prefer to be out of doors, and will winter better if allowed to be there.
 It is usually more convenient to have the feed racks inside but some roughage should always be fed out of doors With breeding ewes toward lambing time there is danger of i'm jury in their crowding through narrow gates. It is well to provide a pasture on which they can run during the days in dry and seasonable weather.
 Raising early lambs is a profitable business on any eastern farm. The lambs are finished and marketed early At that season the fleece is in first class condition and will command a good price in the wool market. The wool helps to pay for the cost of feed. And the manure is rich fertilizer that is worth all the straw and rough age used to. make it.
 consider it costs me about two cents a day to feed a sheep, because ] raise all the rations and roughage on

 VIII you sell your poultry or will you keep them and face the high cost of feed this winter The poultry business is at the present time fac ing the most critical period in it's ex- istence. since it was first established as an independent live stock industry. This emergency is only the beginning methods of feeding and better care and management and will demand the sincere cooperation of every poultry man or the neglected hoclzs which haze managed to return a fair pro it in the past, will rapidly find their way to market
 The call of patriotism is foremost to every American and the movement for food conservation and production is entering into every industry. It is entering into the poultry industry and we hear the question whether the old hen can efficiently convert good grain into a more concentrated food product The answer is no-we can no longer feed the good wheat. It is also doubtful if we can feed any of the higher priced grains solely for the production of market poultry. But the old hen does have an economic vaIre- We do not need to use the best quality of grain which we have thought necessary in the past We can get good egg production by using mill feeds and such grains as are not suitable for human food.

AGRICULTURAL INTERESTS

crease. Fancy chickens show con
 siderable more advancement. Poul-
 try products have not advanced in
 price to compare with other food
 stuffs but this condition must change
 as soon as the shortage due to pres
 sent heavy selling becomes felt. Those
 who stay in the business and meet the
 present emergency by more econoni-
 cal production will be in q position to
 do a better business in the future.
 The principle obstacle which the
 poultry man has to overcome at pres
 ent is the high cost. of feed. Prices
 are not only high but they are sub- ject to unexpected fluctuations which
 make comparatively reasonable for snnfa this week an expensive one the
 next time grain is purcha sed. Tine
 high and fiuctuating prices often make
 1t difficult to obtain the different kinds of feed when needed. The average
 feed dealer cannot carry the quanti-
 ty and variety of feed which he did in normal times. It takes more capi- tai to carry the same amount of feed. Shipments are apt to be delayed in transit and buying ahead entertains considerably greater risk. The prob lem can best be worked out coopera- = lively by both poultrymen and feed dealer The poultryInan must have feed at the lowest possible cost if be is to stay in the business and the
 dealer certainly needs the patronage Of the poultryman if he wishes to do IIfc greatest QOSSIDIe amount or buS1- ness While the importance of the poultry feed business may vary in diff ferent sections, the same principle applies to all kinds of live stock farm ing.
 A constanat supply of the most econmical feeds at all times necessi- tates a thorough knowledge of the markets as well as a ready conception of the value of different feeds and combinations of feeds which may be
 used together The time is past for anyone to hold up a definite formula
 as the only one which will give re-
 suits. Every satisfactory ration must be so balanced that it will meet cer- tain requirements. Beyond that there are no limitations There are many different feed combinations in use some successful and some unsuccess ful. Many of the best rations are composed Of very different grains The requirements of good ration are three; first that it be palatable, sec ond that it contain the proper nutri ! ents to accomplish the purpose fol which it is fed, and third that it be economical. Palatability is of first | importance bcause a hen must eat l enough for maintenance and have a lsurplus for production. It is partic-
