Montana farmer-stockman., 1955-10-15

TO SATISFY our curiosity about a
lot of things in regard to our small
bunch of sheep, we decided to keep in
dividuaI records on each animal
In 1854 we eartagged 200 head of ewes
and their lambs and kept a record of
the income of each eve from wool and
pounds of lamb. Although one years
experience is not enough to be con-
elusive, I believe that our records have
been very worthwhile and they have
not been as difficult to keep as one
might expect.
Our records consist of the following:
/. Eve and lamb number.
g. Ewes age and breeding.
3. Birth date and weight of lamb.
A. Weight and grade of fleece.
5. Weight and grade of lamb at
market time.
6. Remarks.
Based on so cent wool, IL cents for
fat lambs and Is cents for feeder lambs,
here are some of the things we found
out:
Our best eve raised three lambs,
born March ID. The three lambs
Montana farmer-stockman., 1955-10-15

stand as much cold as the lambs. We
find that they need no more protection
than is necessary for lambs
We have found these advantages to
shearing jusi before lannbing:
/. 1t takes less room for the ewes in
the drop band she'd
2. Practically no laying or lambs in
the claiming pens.
g. It's easier for lambs to suclle,
you save more lambs with less labor.
A. Ewes usually look for protection

the advantages gained over the life of
the ewes.
The past two years have saved
close to 200 sets of twins from about
500 ewes. Counting dry ewes, ETC., I've
had 40 per cent lamb crop. ] keep
the twins under irrigated pasture In
close quarters like this, one must do
his best to keep parasites out of the
flock. We have had good results by
moving ewes to clean pasture about
every 10 days. Last year | marketed
my lambs Oct 1. The average weight
of twins and singles was 70 pounds.
Growers just starting in the sheep
business will find that they viii get
more twins if ewes are put on extra
good pasture or given little grain or
pellets a week before breeding and
continued through the breeding season.
Tt has been proven that this flushing
will give more twins. A good green irri-
gated pasture works well too. If pas
tured on alfalfa sheep should be broken
in gradually when the alfalfa is dry
and free of dew or frost This will mini
mize bloat lors. In three years have
lost only two ewes while flushing them
A couple of times it was necessary to
give them drench of two or three
heaping tablespoons of soda in pint
of water
Alfalfa can be dangerous. Several
years ago about 200 ewes and their
lambs broke into an alfalfa field I lost
% ewes in about that many minutes
You'll find that early Landing re-
quires more room if it is to be success
full. After lambs are week old shelter
need not be TOO elaborate, but it should
be kept as dry as possible If not
equipped with good sheds, one made
with wire web and straw and boarded
up about four feet will serve adequately
Straw on the roof should be thick
enough TO keer out snow, which means
the support poles have to be good and
stout
I have had good results with feeding
grain five or six weeks before 1ambing
up to a pouro day along with good
quality hay. After Landing, ewes with
single lambs are fed just alfalfa, but
continue feeding grain to ewes with
wins.

Early Shearing, Landing
Has Many Advantages
81 r. 4. T.HOMPSON, Pbilhbs CoNnty

HAVE RECEIVED considerable help
from the experience stories of other
ranchers appearing in your valuable
paper, and / hope this viii be of bene-
fit to those starting in the sheep bust
ness.
I am one VINO believes that with the
present 1880 coyote poisoning system
there will be considerable increase
in sheep production in Montana under
fence by small operators.
One of the main problems we had
when we cut down from 1000 ewes to
about 500 Under pasture four years
ago was ewes getting on their backs
and bloating, especially month or
so before shearing.
We fenced in about 1000 acres of
dryland pasture. Web wire was used
on most of This, but about a quarter
section was fenced with six strands of
barbed wire Where the ground is not
too rough and with the wire properly
spaced with the top wire about AZ
inches high it has done very well.
However, If you get hold of some
''breechy' barnyard sheep the six-wire
fence may give you trouble.
We start lambing around March Is,
which gets the heaviest part of lamb
ing over with before much farming
starts in this territory We decided to
give the idea of shearing before lamb
ing try, as / could see advantages
under our conditions for doing so. We
used high comb to leave more wool
on the ewes for protection.
Some will say, what, is he crazy,
shearing so early, freezing the ewes
and Sinking the Lambs
The first year one eve lost her
two lambs the day after shearing. Last
year we did not lose lamb, and the
first lamb dropped the day after shear
ing. AS to freezing the ewes by shear
ing early-one has to take good care
of the lambs and you will find that
ewes sheared with a high comb will

BY Keeping Records We Know
Which Ewes Pay Their Keep
By ARTHUR CHRISTENSEN


weighed 81 pounds at birth and z3s
pounds on July %. This eve CROSSED
$4z483, while our poorest eve produced
no lamb and only three pounds of wool
or $18O These are, of course, extremes,
but we found quite number of ewes
that crossed around $35, while ap-
proximately 10 per cent could hardly
'pay their keep" or SIS From a stand
point of judging I would say that there
was little difference in the two groups
of sheep.
Contrary to general opinion we found
that ewes that were from to 9 years
old were as good producers as or slight
ly better than 3 and 4-year olds. The
reason is that the older ewes were
more likely to raise twins than the
younger ewes. Ewes that raised twins
crossed approximately SO more than
those that raised single lambs.
We have sheep of both Hampshire
and Rambouillet breeding, but could
not find that one type is superior TO
the other. Older wfiteface ewes seem
slightly better but in the case of
younger ewes blackfaces are slightly
superior.

While working for Bendix,. her ex-
penses began to exceed her income
because of frequent medical bills
for her young child. In order to
meet these mounting expenses she
worked part-time as a dealer, CIV
ing home demonstrations every
evening and on Saturdays. She
learned, to her surprise, that this
occupation produced a remarkably
good income. She continued doing
this work after her job at Bendix
terminated.
In 1913 Mrs. Wise became SUBJ
distributor for Tupperware, long
before the present distribution sys-
tenn. She sold for a year in Detroit
and then moved to Fort Lauderdale,
Florida. In 1850, as distributor
there, she started patio demonstra-
ton parties. Mr.. Upper, manu-
facturer of Tupperware, investi-
gated various sales and distribution
techniques and learned that the
home demonstration plan produced
the best results. After trying other
methods, he abandoned them all in
favor of the plan used by Mrs.
Wise and several other distributors
in the country.
At subsequent meeting the
system was organized and Upper
ware Home Parties Inc. was es-
tablished in April 1851. Mrs. Wise

WASHINGTON, d. C. - Mrs.
Flora Azikiwe, wife of the leading
political figure in Nigeria. DR..
Nnamdi, Azikiwe, told the Moral
Re Armament World Assembly
here that MIRA was filling the
theological vacuum in her country
and giving direction to the move
ment for self-government.
The 800 delegates from 40 ma
tons rose spontaneously in stand
ing ovation after she described
"the tremendous awakening and
new leadership that is coming to
birth" in her country. Nigeria has
the largest population in Africa
with SO million people. The four
standards of MIRA are of the ut
most Importance to our govern
ment and nation, she said.
Instead of going to Prague and
Moscow in 1949, her husband had
gone to the MIRA Assembly at
Caux Switzerland, she said. She
quoted him as saying in Washing
ton earlier this year, "if it had
not been for MIRA there would be
Mau Mau in Nigeria today"
A Korean speaker, who followed
Senator Takeshi Togano of Japan,
said the spirit she had seen here
twill eliminate the century-old en-
nifty between Korea and Japan.
Then Japenese-Korean relations
will be a great element contributing
to world peace" Speaking of her
own country, Miss P. PAX said
1--WE in South Korea vigorously
against Communism, but We don't
have an theology which is super
ior to Communism. We Koreans
must realize that democracy as it
is lived now is not good enough to
win over Communism. When we
accept this theology of MIRA we
will be able to unity our peninsula
