Striking Contrasts Are
Shown in Sheep Exhibit

An exhibit on sheep raising and
management prepared by specialists Of
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture was displayed at the Inter
national Live Stock exposition in Chi
cago and attracted wide interest
among sheep raisers.
The exhibit contrasted choice and
common lambs and showed methods
by which each is produced. Live an
finals and likenesses of corresponding
carcasses illustrates the advantages Of
proper sheep management.
The exhibit showed also that the
common lamb yielded only 43 per cent
of dressed carcass while the choice
lamb had a dressing percentage of o.
per cent. The common lamb, the ex-
hibit explained. was sired by scrub
ran and was probably infested with
stomach worms. Inferior breeding and
.nfestation with parasites are impor-
tant causes of inferior stock and low
returns

Obtain More Pork With
Proper Feed for Swine

zone of the best means of cutting
the cost of producing pork" says E.
F. Ferrin, who is in charge Of the hog
section at University farm at St Paul,
Mimi, sis to use good pasture and
forage crops. This practice is advis-
able whether grain be high in price
or cheap; there is a decided saving
in either case. Pigs getting green feed
are more thrifty than those raised In
dry lots, consequently gain faster and
make pork at a lower cost.
Results obtained at University
farm prove beyond question that it Is
a short-sighted policy to neglect to
grow good forage crops when pigs are
being raised. Blue grass and similar
pastures furnish good feed in the
spring, but during summer are little
better than en- exercising ground
Some one crop, or more than one,
should be grown to give fresh succu-
lent green feed in summer and early
fall. Dwarf Essex rape, alfalfa and
red clover are the outstanding top
notch forage crops in the corn belt
Of these rape is by far the most suit
able for Minnesota conditions. The
cost of seeding Is low-about five
pounds of seed per acre is an average
quantity-and in favorable season the
crop is ready to be pastured six weeks
from sowing. If grain is fed in rea-
sonable amounts an acre of rape will
carry from 20 to 80 growing pigs
through the season."

STOMACH WORM VERY
HARMFUL TO SHEEP

The stomach worm Harmonious con-
fortus is one of the worst enemies Of
the sheep raiser Several hundred
sheep were treated for the removal Of
the worms. Copper sulphate, copper
sulphate and tobacco. and intramus
cular injections of cacodylate of So
dunn were used in treating the sheep.
Copper sulpbate in a l per cent solu-
ton at the rate of 80 &C. for lambs
under one year, and 100 &C. for sheep
over one year was found to be rs to
D5 per cent effective. A solution con-
tanning ] per cent copper sulphate and
l per cent tobacco infusion was found
to have an efficiency of 80 to 100 per
cent. Cacodylate of sodium was in
jected intramuscularly at the rate Of
seven grains for an adult sheep. Two
Or three injections were made at in
tervals of two or three days with only
negative results.
Haemonchus contortus has period
lc seasonal distribution due either TO
climatic conditions or to the nature of
the food at different seasons Of the
year. Un0OuDtedly, tne nature Oh the
food is great factor in the gradual
removal of some of the worms from
the host.
An estimate can be made of the
number of eggs in the droppings. IN
der normal conditions the number of
eggs in gram of fresh droppings cor
responds fairly well with the number
of adult female worms in the host
There seems to be from LIS to times
as many females as males. Hence,
the number of eggs in a gram of fresh
droppings, plus one-half to one times
that number. gives a fair estimate of
the number of adult worms in the host

Doctor Lancasters office to ask
him to overlook her blunder and
reinstate her. She overhears a
violent alteration between Doc

and thoughtful and at others su-
percilious and bullying. He tells
her he can do nothing for her at
the hospital. but offers her a po-
