our SYSTEM of mixed farming and live
stock production. This gives the rails
ing Of Sheep a new appeal in older
fartG;.g- ;ircas.
The r0;lin factor in determining the
cost OF other animal products is the
value Of grain and mill feeds; pastur-'
age and rOughage are important, but
both beef and pork require Il consider
able use Of concentrated feeds. The
production of lambs and mutton re-
Quire y very much smaller proportion
of fat and therefore Il smaller use Of
grain thHn is required in these other
meat H"ilnals. Sheep are able to get
a good portion of their feed from
rough, permanent grass pasture and at
the sane time keep it clean of weeds.
This Increases rather than decreases
the c;itJI"-cHrrying capacity of the pas
ture. As sheen require comparative
ly little of the owners labor, The labor
cost per dollars worth of wool or
lambs il lower than in any other farm
animal product. While the labor re-
Quircd in raising sheep is not heavy

other stock.
Many OF the obstacles that have
hindcrrd the progress of sheep rails
ing in intensive farming districts have
been or are being overcome. The COM
petition given sheep growing on farms
by the production of sheep on lower
priced range land is being removed.
4 second but only temporary obstacle
to quick increase in sheep produc-
ton L IS in the fact that comparative
ly few farmers are as we'll qualified
to care for sheep as for other classes
Of stock. The needs and habits OF
sheep differ from those of horses, and
swine, but present no problems that
will rt lie met by interested study
ana ri ."rvations supported by salts

Why not give War Savings stamps
to prize winners at agricultural fairs
The bureau of agriculture Of the
Lake Charles Uouisiana) chamber of
commerce has suggested that all pre-
miums given by state, county and other
fairs this year be paid in War Savings
stamps. A resolution expressing that
proposal was recently adopted by this

sent to all federal and state officials
interested and to the proper represent
atives of fair associations in every
part of the country. The idea is meet

food unless they have help. The loaf

KEEP FARM RECORDS
TO SHOW ACTIVITIES
Cash Accounts, Properly Assem-
bIed, Are of Importance.
often Overlooked Projects Produce
Nearly as Much Money as ObVi-
ousiy important - Carefully
Avoid Sudden Changes.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
When a record is kept of all the
money taken in and spent on the farm,
at the close of the business year the
cash accounts can be assembled under
headings that will show exactly what
branch Of the farm activities produced
the dollars and what each required in
the way of cash expenditure to keep
going. Some farmers are apt to judge
Of the Importance of the various farm
projects by the time it takes to put
them through. To such, a complete
cash record for a year, properly as
Sembled, will be an eye-Opener. Often
seemingly unimpOrtant things on the
farm, such as the flock of poultry, pro-
duce nearly as much net cash as the
obviously important. The years cash
summary helps the farmer to get Il
better perspective of these things.
In using such records as an aid to
future plans, haSty conclusions should
not be drawn, nor should snap judg-
uents be taken. The fact that the
nOgs or the corn crop brought in the
most net money last year is no reason
FOR assuming that all the activities of
The farm henceforth should be devoted
to the sole purpose of hog or corn
raising II may be that the keeping
Of COWS was partly responsible for
making ;he hogs SO productive of net
cash, or chat the growing of wheat,
clover, or other crops in rotation with
corn made the latter crop much more
profitable than it would have been if
grown alone. Similar conditions will

fore no sudden changes should be
made on the basis of what few ac-
counts may show.

All phases of such an enterprise

Comparison of the annual figures

from the use of accounts, since by
such comparison true perspective
and insight into the makeup of the
business is gained.

ton is given to supplying green feed
regularly and abundantly. Heavy egg
production is not desired. The object
is to have the birds in perfect physi-
cal condition and at the height of vi
tality, that they may more surely
transmit these qualities to their off
spring.
The greatest difficulty in backyard
breeding is rearing the young birds to
secure their best development. AS
growing birds are more susceptible to
adverse conditions than mature birds,
and birds in close confinement are less
rugged than those at liberty, the back
yard breeder must give the most scru-
pulous attention to every detail of the
care of his young chickens. Short
comings which might have no bad con-
sequences with the adult birds, or
with young chickens under more favor
able conditions, may have very serious
i'll effects upon his young stock. How
ever, by looking properly after all
their wants and taking care not to
Overcrowd them in any way, fine specf-
mems may be grown in yards where
the space allowance is not more than
20 to 30 square feet per bird.

meat would be placed on the market.
All poorly developed chickens should
