Barley Found Excellent

tie trouble with sheep raising in some
localitles-they have been forgotten
until all other animals have been well
provided. Barley is one kind of grain
that grows well In our best sheep sec

neariy equal to corn for growing fat
limbs, or for older sheep whore. some
leguIne hay is on hand, says the Wis

meal or cottonseed meal will give good
maintenance and gains.
Where conditions warrant 1t, or

the ration requires grain for breed
Ing ewes, there Is nothing better than
equal parts Of barley and wheat bran,
by weight. One-half OF a pound or a
little more OF this concentrate daily
per head will answer requirements.
After the ewes have LANDED and milk
flow needs to be sustained. then make
the ration three-fourths OF a pound OF
bran and barley. and perhaps add 10
per cent of oil meal to 1t. For the
small lambs on their first grain feed
we mention the ration used sometimes
by Frank Kleinhelnz, Wisconsin shep-
herd This is ten pounds each of
ground barley and ground oats, 20
pounds of wheat bran. and one pound
Of oil meal. Tie lambs should have
access to a separate trough by means

made of satin or ribbed silk, usually in
black, and lined with cashmere twill,
crepe de chine or colored silk. Ribbed
silk may be manipulated to form bor-

represented in plain utility garments Of

against selling in sklppy condition.
