Sheep Need Protection
From Sun in Hot Season

There are very few days from June
on till fall that sheep do not need
some protection from the sun. Where
tillable fields are pastured and in
closed with wire fencing. there Is little
provision for supplying shade. On a
great many farms all the shade trees
have been removed from the fields to
facilitate cultivation,
Some flock owners supply shade for
their flocks by allowing the sheep to
occupy the sheepshed during the sum.
mer months. This is a good plan as
the stable can be frequently relittered,
kept dark and sanitary. BY removing
the windows and substituting light
frames covered with thin muslin the
flies can be kept out and the stable
will remain cool and be well venti.
lated.
Where large s%prawling trees, small
groves, or a portion of the woodlot are
not available for furnishing shade
some artificial means should be con-
structed. This can be done by setting
posts in the ground about ten feet
apart, mailing cross-pieces to the top
and laying a roof made Of old lumber,
overlapping just enough to shed water.
This kind of shade answers the pur-
pose, Is cool and sanitary.

Beefing Young Bull Is
Not Profitable Practice

Don't send the promising purebred
bull TO the butchers block before he
has had a chance to show. through his
daughters, his quality.
This Is the warning Of the men at
the New York state college OF agricul-
ture who are encouraging the use of
better sires.
They say that many times farmers
have disposed of young bulls only to
find that some of their daughters have
developed into remarkable producers.
They cite figures that show on many
farms the tendency Is decidedly for
the use OF young bulls and then to dis
pose Of them before their real worth
can be learned
In a study of 378 purebred bulls II
was found that AZ were under nine
months Of age; 121 were one year Of
age; 112 were two years of age; "a
were three years. Of age; 10 were four
years OF age; II were five years OF
age; 3 were six years OF age and only
! was v years Of age.
Ordinarily stock men figure that a
bull must be five years old before
much can be known about his first
daughters. and seven years must
elapse before there is definite knowl-
edge of his breeding qualities. Yet of
all the bulls considered In the survey,
only 10 were of sufficient age to admit
Of an estimate Of their value.

Prompt Handling
of Potato Crop
Government Bulletin Points
Out Great Importance of
Heavy Early Shipment.
Prepared by the United States Department

Prepared by the United States Department
OF Agricultural
Prompt, quick, careful handling of
the early potato crop is the keynote of
the marketing problem, according to
the United States Department of Agri-
culture. The market season for any
early potato district lasts only a few
weeks and into that short time must
be condensed the net results Of the
seasons work and planning. Farmers
bulletin 1916, just published. tells how
the crop is sold In the leading early
potato sections the location, shipping
points, and relative Importance of the
heavy early-shipping districts are
shown kind and source of Information
which the grower should use are de-
scribed; and the grower told how to
make the most Of them in marketing
his crop.
Factors to Study.
Study is better than guess work, says
the bulletin. There are q number of
factors to consider and the grower
should keep in touch with crop news,
shipment reports, and market quota
lions. Study Of the best official re-
ports until experience makes ii pos
sible to size up their practical mean
ing almost at a glance, Is a practical
and profitable part Of the work of
marketing.
Before the time Of planting the
grower who studies conditions will be
able TO figure with a certain degree of
accuracy the probable market situa-
ton for early new potatoes. The price
of early potatoes seems to vary accord
ing 10 the size of the main crop the
year before and the quantity Of Old
stock available tor shipment after Jan
uary I, as well as according to ship
ments of the new early crop. For ex-
ample the average price OF new pota-
toes in 1917 was nearly double that OF
1916, yet about the same number OF
carloads of new early stock were
shipped in each Of the two years. But
the 1917 new crop followed n short old
crop of which the shipments were light

followed a heavy main crop.
Success In Marketing.
While the selling end Of the potato
question deals mainly with the crop
when ready for market, II is well to
bear in mind that success in marketing
depends much on having the right
stock at the right time. The variety
should be one that Is marketed in large
quantities from the locality, thus max
ing sure of carlot shipments throughout
the season and OF plenty Of local cash
buyers.

terest regarding the various market
outlets for the small grower as well as
for the larger commercial planter and

culture. Washington, ID. c., as long as

Right Treatment for
Sunstroke in Horses
First Step Is to Get Animal
in Cool, Shady Spot.

Sunstroke, a disorder of the nervous
system caused by exposure 10 the d.
rect rays OF the sun, is likely to cause
trouble in hot weather, says the vet
Urinary division of the Clemson Agri-
cultural college.
In severe cases, death Is sudden, due
to paralysis of the nerve centers In the
brain controlling the respiration and
circulation. In the less severe cases
there may be marked excitement, the
animal becoming uncontrollable; or
the opposite condition may be present,
the animal appearing sleepy and de-
pressed.
AS the condition occurs in the open,
and usually while the animal Is at hard
work, the first step is 10 get the animal
in a cool, shady spot out of doors.
If there is excitement, all precau-
tions should be taken to prevent the
animal injuring itself. Then cold
water, or better sin. Ice should be
applied to the head. If ice is not
available II is well to turn the garden
hose on the animals head. The cold
water tends To relieve the congested
condition of the brain, and the colder
the better. The water should not be
applied all over the body. but only to
the head.
The animal should not be drenched,
for he Is likely to be unconscious and
the drench will, In that case, pass into
the lungs, where 1t may set up a fatal
inflammation.
Following sunstroke the animal
should be rested for several days, and
brought back to hard work gradually.

Proper Care and Feed
Will Help Draft Foals

With the draft horse market lmprov
ing steadily, for the best quality AMI.
mails. anyway, some recent experiments
conducted by Professor Fuller at the
Wisconsin experiment station will be
OF interest and practical value.
A lot Of seven pure bred draft foals
was given careful feeding for 1872 days
during the winter before last, on an
average daily ration of ia pounds of
concentrates and "a pounds of alfalfa
hay. The grain mixture consisted OF
80 pounds Of crushed oats and 10
pounds OF wheat bran. The foals
made an average daily gain OF 10
pounds, and averaged 1,141.4 pounds
In weight at an average age Of 377
days. The result OF this work checked
very closely with the trials of previous
years. and 1t appears safe to conclude
that, by proper care and liberal feed
Ing. good draft foais can easily be
made to weigh 1000 pounds at one
year Of age.

Prairie Dog Eradication
Saves Arizona Farmers

For every dollar Invested in the
Arizona campaign for prairie-dog
eradication In 1922, there was a SIS
return In the value of farm products
saved from destruction by these pests,
according to reports t the United
States Department Of Agriculture.
The state and federal appropriation
for the campaign was $4,000. Farm
ers estimated the value Of crops, fruit
trees, range grasses, or other products
saved as a result, at $4,000, over
fifteen times the amount put into the
work.
