Chicago, March 4.-The American
Farm Bureau Federation, representing
l.WO.OOO farmers In the United States,
and probably designed to be the-strong.
est league OF agricultural Interests In
the world, began two-days' session
here. Twenty-eight states were r. pre-
scented by SO delegates, many OF them
women, each delegate standing for 90
600 individual farmers. The delegates
SAT as board of directors for the or
ganizntion as whole. Several states
not yet admitted to the federation sent
representatives. to ask recognition.
First-day developments indicated the
selection Of Chicago or indianapolis as
national headquarters. The matter
was referred to the executive commit
tee, with Chicago apparently In the
lead because of Its accessibility.
Platform on Resolutions
Resolutions introduced disclosed In
a measure the activities TO be fol-
lowed. They included:
National legislation that will pre-
vent strikes and unnecessary suffer
ing.
An Income tax based on cash re-
ceipts and disbursements.
A demand for an international CON
ference OF farmers to meet In America
with representatives from France.
England. Ireland, Canada. Germany

ton to farm products.

The Care Of the Eve and Lambs

The Care Of the Eve and Lambs
More attention must be given IN,
flock at lambing time than an
other season Of the year. This Il
10 the flock what the first two week
is TO the corn crop. II the lamb'
come strong and are not set baci
because OF poor care the prospects
for profit are great.
The eve should be in good con-
dition as furnishing the milk fol
the lamb will reduce her flesh very
rapidly. The ewes in poor flesh
should be separate6'from the flock
and fed more grain. A good grain
ration is three parts bran, one part
oil meal and six parts of corn or
barley. Oats may be used in place
of bran reduced one-half. A we'll
fleshed eve will eat one-third OF
pound Of grain and three pounds
Of alfalfa or clover hay. One In
poor condition may need as much
as pound and a half Of grain.
II you know accurately the time
at which the eve is due TO lamb
Gas days or five days less than five
months is the period OF gestationI
or you can tell from her appearance,
as she will be sunken in front OF
the hips and over the rump, the
grain ration should be reduced or
withheld entirely and clean hay and
succulent feed substituted for a few
days prior TO lambing and two or
three days afterwards. The too
liberal use of grain at this time il
one Of the chief causes OF milk fe-
yer.
Weak lambs, particularly when
born in cold and damp weather, may
become chilled, and unless promptly
cared for, die. Wrapping the lamb
in hot flannels will revive il. The
lamb may be placed in water, as hot
AS is comfortable TO the hand, then
dried and wrapped up in a sheep
skin or warm flannels. Another
method is TO place them in a box
containing bran and surrounding
them with hot water bottles. This
is very good because the eve will
clean the bran off the lamb and
leave her own scent, greatly in
creasing the chances that she will
own the lamb.
The lamb Of a well-fed eve will
have little trouble and should grow
rapidly. Some trouble may be ex-
pected, however. Constipation is in
dicated by straining and distress
and is relieved by teaspoonful OF
castor oil. White scours is caused
by indigestion resulting from mis-
takes in feeding the eve, and IL she
is given clean, wholesome feel.
there is little danger OF the lamb
having the scOurs. AS a cure for
the lamb one ounce of sulphate OF
magnesia, one-quarter ounce Of
cooking soda and pinch OF ginger
should be given in a small guam
fifty Of flaxseed tea or cruel. This
should be followed with two ounces
of linseed oil four hours afterward.
Castor oil is a good cure for most
stages Of indigestion, which NAV be
recognized by distress and frothing
at the mouth.

separators sold in the county by Mr.
w. II. Jones, Wilde, and Shafer and
Roberts, Brodhead. This, 10 my
opinion, means that more dollars
and cents has been realized from the
h me COW than ever before. Ono
point, however, must be considered
in this matter, and that is all the
cream should not be sold at the ex-
pense Of the folks in the home. II
is a pleasure TO have some real
cream TO go in The coffee and TO put
over desserts. I only call the read
er's attention TO this as a reminder
Of the value of cream in the home
as we'll as the commercial product.
As long as butter and milk re-
mains TO be a valuable food and as
time continues, just that long the
dairy business will be a profitable
business, when conducted in the
right way. With this in mind I
think il advisable for each farmer TO
think of a way in which he can Sc
cure a bigger return from his cows.
Let it be one, two, four or more.
Rockcastle County is county
which is naturally located. where
dairying, poultry raising and sheep
raising would be a profitable busi-
ness. There will be no question as
TO whether these products will go
on the market. The question is;
Have we got the products for the
market?
Perhaps some one in reading this
article will say 81 thought that
Spence was in favor OF Shorthorn
instead Of the dairy breed" 1
wish to say that Wisconsin is our
biggest dairy state in the Union,
and some Of their best herds are
Shorthorn herds; of course, they
belong TO the milking strain Short
horn. Having been in Wisconsin.
and having investigated the dairy,
| am ready TO say that a good herd
can be built up with the Short
horns as well as the Holstein or
Jersey. I make this explanation so
as to explain that by the use Of the
milking strain Shorthorn, we pro-
duce a good calf for the market, and
still have milk. A Jersey or Hol-
stein male calf would sell very low
on the market. Therefore, as a dual
purpose breed, I think IL would not
be a mistake TO still continue in
creasing the Shorthorn business in
Rockcastle County. Although, IL
any farmer should wish 10 build UP
a herd OF Jerseys or Holsteins as a
dairy herd, he is certainly not max
ing a mistake. If ne does not care
for a calf, it is better TO have
strictly dairy breed.
We now have some farmers in
the county who are beginning Jer-
sey and Holstein herds. To my
opinion, they are doing the right
thing. AS I stated above, il is only
a question Of a short time until
Rockcastle will see more prosperity
rising up from the valleys and hill
tops in dairying, poultry raising,
sheep raising and bees, than she
ever dreamed of.
II at any time, I, being your
County Agricultural Agent, can fur
nish you or cause to be furnished
you any information desired please
do not hesitate 10 call.
Yours for a bigger and better
Rockcastle County.
