ordinarily the management of the
farm flock of sheep calls for compare
lively small demands upon farm la
Dor. The labor cost per dollars worth
OF wool or lamb is lower than for any
other farm animal product. Yet, while
sheep raising does not necessitate ex-
pensive equipment or heavy labor, it
does require study and continuous at
tention. However, the effects of the
reduced supply OF available farm la
Dor. brought about by the drain upon
1t by the army and war industries, may
be counteracted In part by the adop-
ton. where possible. of one or more
OF the following suggestions:
Some labor can be saved on the
stock farm by more general adoption

One Of the best labor savers and

feeder. Experiments comparing the
self-feeder with feeding by hand have
been made at a number Of experiment
stations, and most of them have shown
not only that the self-feeder Is a time
saver, but that more pounds Of pork

away with the laboriOus work Of feed.
ing slop to hogs. No definite expert
ments have been made along the line
of comparing, feeds Of this kind fed dry
as against slop, yet some work Of this
kind has been done and results were
very satisfactory with the self-feeder
plan. Many farmers and hog growers
have tried feeding these feeds in a self
feeder, and the results were fully as
good or better than those obtained by
the system of slop feeding.
It is highly desirable that feeds used
In feeding hogs, especially corn. be fed
as near as possible to the crib or
granary. Feeding floors should be
built adjoining corncrlb or granaries
holding shelled corn.
Another means of saving labor In
hog growing is the more extended use
of woven-wire fence. If the hog grow
er, has all his fields and lots fenced
with hog-tight fencing, he can save the
waste in these fields after harvest, and
can also follow the method Of hOggfng
down corn, which is highly desirable
and economical
Probably the best use to which
wOven-wire fencing can be put Is in
making possible the use Of forage
crops. Our best hog growers have be-
come convinced that feeding hogs in
dry lots is no longer the best method.
IN nearly every part of the country
where hogs are grown some kind OF
forage crops can be successfully used,
and they offer three distinct advan-
tages: First, the saving of grain by
allowing hogs to get all the green
feed they want: second. the building
up Of the soil through the use Of ma
nure obtained from hogs continuously
on these pastures, and. third. the much
more sanitary conditions under which
the hogs live, plus the exercise which
the hogs get in pastures, both Of which
are necessities In successful hog grow
ing. In some parts Of the hOg-grOw-
ing country farmers are able to pas
ture their hogs 10 or II months In the
year. In almost all parts Of the coun-
try hogs can be pastured at least six or
seven months.
All these practices save labor In
feeding, and in addition save q con-
siderable amount of labor in hauling
out ana scattering manure that accu-
mulates when feeding under the dry
lot plan.
Many hog feeders dip or spray their
hogs to keep down the lice. Many
commercial hog oilers on the market
are practical and effective In keeping
hogs from becoming infested with lice.
The general practice Of growing hogs
and feeding them the grains raised on
the farms has tendency to distribute
the labor throughout the year.
