Breeding Ewes Require
Exercise During Winter

One very important factor in win
tering breeding ewes Is to see thai
they get plenty of exercise. Lack OF
exercise is one of the causes of weak
lambs. When 1t can be arranged, at
least a part of the ~roughage should
be fed in the field Mt some distance
from the barns or the shed and the
ewes should be out every day that the
weather Is fair. In fact, for best re-
suits, the should have the equiva-
lent of ut least n mile of exercise each
day.
In %shelterlng ewes, protect them
from cold rains and driving storms.
Many people make the mistake OF not
housing their ewes until they have be-
come wet or until practically all dam.
age has been done. Low temporal
ture in the barn or shed is not serious
so long as the sheep are dry under
foot and owe head. Have ventilation
without strong drafts. Danger lies
In having u barn too warm and damp.

LIVE STOCK
FACTS
Earning Power of Pure
Bred Higher Than Scrub

Based on utility alone-apart from
breeding or sales value-pure bret live
stock has an earning power from "A
third to one-half greater thar scrub
stock. The average superiority of pure
breds over scrubs for all classes of
farm animals is about 10 per cent.
OF the principal points in which
pure breds excel other stock, the most
prominent are: Superiority and uni
formity in conformation and type,
greater sale value, early maturity, and
economy In the conversion of feed into
meat. milk, wool. and work.
Surplus pure breds are readily sal
able at satisfactory prices in the ma
jOrity of cases; but much depends on
the breeding and production records
and the business ability of the breeder.
With rare exceptions, pure bred sire
users are satisfied with the quality
of the offspring obtained, except that
the desire is creuted in many cases
to improve the quality still further.
The progeny of pure bred sires has
practically Il 80 per cent greater sale
value than the progeny of sires not
pure bred.
Pure bred sires of good quality are
readily obtainable in the experience Of
three-fourths of the breeders report
ing. The principal difficulties are:
Paying the price and finding the de
sirable type, but there is practically
unanimous agreement that the results
Justify the cost.
The average Increase in financial
returns. from live stock raising, trace
able to the use of pure bred sires is

Docking of Lambs Great
Help at Time of Selling

Farmers who are engaged in the
sheep industry often forget to dock
and castrate their lambs. Live stock
staunch supporters of castrution and
docking of lambs for market purposes
and pay more for animals which have
received this attention.
"Castration OF lambs is a simple OPP
Grafton ard II performed at the proper
time the lamb doe O mind It and
there is little risk attached says Prof.
Phil. A. Anderson. animal husbundry-
man at University farm ut st. Paul,
Mimi. THE operation should be done
when the lamb is ten days to two
weeks old; older lambs can be un-
sexed but with more risk. Use any
good disinfectant, having hands and
knife clean. The lower one-third Of
the scrotum is removed and the tes-
ticles forced out. The spermatic cord
should be drawn out with the fingers
and cut OFF with a knife in IA scraplng
manne in order to prevent excessive
bleeding. After the operation is COM
pleted, apply a dlsinfectant. II blow
flies are abundant. apply a little clean
pine tar.
Lambs that have not been locked
present n poor appearance when mar
keted. but the main reason for dock
ing is that lambs on summer pasture
often scour. Such conditions invite the

Dumping THINGS ON SCHOOLS

people who have criticised the public schools OF
this country for undertaking too much and squana-
erng their time nonessenals instead OF sticking 10
essentials are invited to consider this statement from
prominent educator:
.'rhe schools have been swamped with all manner
Of campaigns -anti-fly, clean teeth drink
anti-raosquito cleanup, thrift, safety, patriotism
Using the schools to avoid the hard work of putting
over YOUR bright ideas to the improvement OF the
community is great game. Dumping responsibility
on the schools very different thing from inviting
it to cooperate. Altogether too much effort has oee
spent on getting the schools to take tasks when
the adult portion of society too lazy to perform
Theirs is more truth in this than many parents and
public officials will like to admit.
AS society develops and raises its educational
standards, there natural desire that children should
take on more knowledge to fit them for the world
they living in. 1t may be natural too to dump the
responsibility for the additional instruction upon the
schools. They there, and they supported by
taxes, and it is their business to teach But 1t Is hard
on the schools. They cannot do everything.
1t is the business of parents TO teach, too 1t is
also the business of the press and of private organza
tions of many kinds The schools nearly always do the
bestthey can So does the press. Both
hardened What is needed is all-round cooperation
in this educational business, and especially greater
contribution from parents in the way of teaching their
children.

AMAZING REVENUE
SHOWN BY SINGLE
DAYS SICHTSEERS

The value of motor travel to
Southern California communities is
indicated in Il check recently made
at Santa Barbara. Every motor
vehicle entering or leaving the Ell
iy on certain Sunday was count
ed. and the total was lO,40O ma
chimes. Allowing an average of four
persons TO the machine this shows
that 10000 persons were motoring
IN Santa Barbara during q single
day, which number is nearly the
entire population of this Southern
California city.
While there is no check on cApen-
diturcs of these motorists while in
Santa Barbara, it is readily appar-
ent that Of the more than 10000
ears several thousand would need
gasoline, oil, and mechanical atten-
tion amounting to tidy total for
the day. The more than 10000 oc-
cuPants may not All have needed
food in Santa Barbara, but it is
probably true that the vast major
iiy of them made purchases rang
