sheep supply very essential war
needs--meat and wool During the
winter they need special care. Their
heavy coat viii keep them warm pro-
vided it is dry, but if it becomes wet
the animals will suffer from chills and
sickness. In any part of the United
states the main essentials of sheep
barns are dryuess and freedom from
drafts. Unless lambs are to he drop
ped in cold weather. no expense to
provide warmth is necessary, as the
buildings should seldom be closed.
Protection from winter rains and
heavy suowfdlls is desirable, but the
best results may be expected when
ewes are allowed access to a dry bed

files" which have been devised for
poultry houses might be adapted.
WelI-Draincd Floors
Level and well-drained clay-sur-
faced floors are satisfactory and eco
nomical. Sheep pack the surface very
firmly and II there is proper drain
age the only objection to this floor is
that it does MOI exclude rats. Concrete
floors for alleys and feed rooms are
necessary. but will seldom be called
for in the pens.
Arrangement of Building
The main features To be provided in
the floor plan are minimum of waste
space, convenience and ease in feed
ing and in cleaning the pens. and ell
miuation of the need of moving or
disturbing the sheep. Pen partitions
should be movable. BY using feed
racks to make divisions in the pen
space the size Of the pens can be var
led as needed, and In special cases the
racks can he removed to permit the
use Of the space for other stock.
Locating sheep Buildings
The site for permanent buildings
for sheep should LIST of all he dry
and well drained. Ample yard space
that is dry and sheltered should be
available adjacent to the main barn
or shed. A southern slope with sandy
soil is especially satisfactory for this
purpose on most farms it will be
advantageous to have the buildings
and yards easily reached from the
regular pastures or from fields used
to grow forage crops for summer
pasture. As The flock requires at
tention many times daily during part
of the year. convenience of location
in relation to the farm dwelling and
to other buildings will effect an econ

FEED COWS LEGUME HAY

In cooperation with the extension
department of Purdue University the
nited states Department Of Agr,cul-
ture last year made an investigation
of the cost OF producing milk I'm t6
dairy herds IN Porter county, Ind. In
thar study IL was found that when
other conditions were the same the
dsirymen who fed the largest quanti-
ty of clover. alfalfa and other legume
hays, used 3S per cent less grain with
out lessening the production of their
cows, That Is, the dairymen who fed
legume hay obtained as much milk
from SO pounds of grain as the others
obtained from 100 pounds of grain.
Such saving Is certainly worth while.
Patriotism demands increased pro-
duction; the high cost of living de-
mands economical production; both
those demands are met when all our
good cows are kept, and when their
milk flow is maintained at low cost.
