LITTLE SHEEP POINTS

ii Many Settlers Use Animals for Clearing Up Land. Flock Can Be Sheltered in Common Shed, Open to South Give Ewes Careful Attention at Lambing Time Keep Them Dry. (By FRANK KLEINHERIG, Wisconsin Experiment Station.) Sheep make excellent land clearers. Many settlers use sheep to clear land and put it in shape for dairying. A diet of brush alone will not make the sheep thrive they need grass or a little grain besides. Sheep can be sheltered in a' common shed, open to the South and having a hay or straw roof. It should be free from drafts. The roof must not leak and the floor must be dry. If the ewes lamb early, a warmer place is needed for them during lambing. It pays to use a good ram, for he is half the flock. If ewes from the western ranges are purchased and crossed with a purebred ram of a mutton breed, offspring improve rapidly. This is an inexpensive but profitable way to start in sheep. Start with a small flock, until a knowledge of sheep is secured. Large flocks are harder to handle, more susceptible to disease and are expensive to experiment with. A small flock, handled right is profitable and rapidly develops into a larger flock. EWes need watching at lambing time, more than at any other. Feed them r Sheep in Winter Quarters. the right ration, keep them dry and warm. Castrate and dock the lambs while they are very young. Early lambs are more profitable than late lambs. The best prices are for a lamb weighing 60 or 70 pounds in May or June. The lambs need more feed than their mothers' milk if the best gains are to be made. Dip the flock about a week after shearing them. A warm day should be selected and the dipping done early in the morning. Then the sheep are dry by night. Shear the sheep as soon ns the weather is warm enough so that they will not take cold if fleece is removed. DIFFICULT TO FATTEN CALF Many Farmers Believe That It Is Not Possible to Get Good Veal by Pail Feeding. It is quite a difficult matter to fat-1 ten a veal calf in any reasonable time : without new milk. Indeed, many think the only way is to let the calf suckle the cow, that you cannot get first-class veal by pail feeding. But suckling the cow is so detrimental to the cow that ! good dairymen feed the calves and with very good success. However, when you come to do away with milk entirely, or even try to make veal with skim milk and grain, you are up against a difficult proposition. There is prepared calf meal on the market that Is probably the best substitute for milk. It is good to grow calves on, but to fatten veal is quite different. A good food can be obtained by mixing many of our different grains together, as oats, corn, barley, wheat or bran and middlings, and then cooking to a thin gruel. Calves will grow on this, but will not fatten when quite young. PILLS FOR CHILLY WEATHER Treat Sluggish Fowls With Pellets Made of Mixture of Ginger, Pepper and Mustard. Sometimes, these cold days, a chicken will be found which is apparently a little out of condition, and yet not sick. On these occasions, sprinkling the mash with pepper, about as one would pepper a dish for the table, seems to act as a good tonic. Red pepper in moderation is even better than black. If individual treatment is given, pick up the sluggish birds and give pills made of equal parts of ginger, pepper and mustard, mixed well in lard and made into a dough with flour kor cornmeal. Make into pellets the size of a cherry, and give twice a day. BREEDING STOCK IN WINTER Egg Production During Cold Weather Season Should Receive Little Thought by Poultryman. The best of the breeding stock should not be forced for winter egg production or they will not be in the best condition for breeders in the spring. Egg production during cold weather is of second consideration.

SWAT THE BUGS Here are a few animal para- 1 sites that can be controlled by 'dipping in some reliable stock dip: On "hogs Hog louse, flea, red mange, and sarcoptic mange. 4 On sheep Sheep tick, sheep- i scab mite, mange. ( On cattle Texas fever tick, mange, scab, various kinds of lice and mites. On horses Lice and mites. , I BEST SOIL FOR HORSERADISH Plant Is Propagated by Cuttings Vtfhich Are Made From Trimmings From Its Roots. Horseradish does best on deep, cool, rich soil and for best results late season growth is necessary. It is propagated by root cuttings which are made from trimmings from roots prepared for the market. The best cuttings are about the size of one's little finger, .and from 4 to T inches long. They should be planted in rows far enough apart to allow horse tillage, and from 12 to 18 inches apart in the row. The horseradish plant is very hardy and will stand much abuse, but in planting one must use care in setting the cutting so that the upper end is on top, otherwise the horseradishes will grow irregular in shape. Yery often it is planted with other crops, such as cabbage, spinach, early beets, etc. In preparing for the market all of the rootless are cut off and the roots tied in bunches of 12. FIND VALUE OF DAY'S LABOR Four Hours and 34 Minutes Required to Produce Bushel of Corn in 1855 Less Time Now. The United States department of agriculture in 1S55 made an investigation as to the time required to prodifce a bushel of corn. They found that it required 4 hours and 34 minutes of human labor. From 1909 to 1912 a similar investigation was made. T. P. Cooper, director of the North Dakota experiment station, in summing up the results, finds that 45 minutes is the time required to produce a bushel of corn now, or only one-sixth as long as in 1855. In other words, a day of human labor now is worth more than six times as much as in 1855, due to the use of more and better machinery, better varieties of corn and better soil management. SELECTION OF BEST LAYERS Large, Thrifty, Clean Fowls That Are Good Egg Producers Are Most Desired by Farmer. W. Theodore Wittman, poultry expert of the Pennsylvania department of agriculture, gives the following advice : Good layers have long bodies, back sloping to the tail ; medium-length legs set well apart ; full prominent egg basket; pelvic bones thin and pliable; comb large, always red, and the number of serrations makes no difference. At this time of the year if you wish to improve your flock, the only hens you must breed from itre your best Flock of Plymouth Rocks. hens, the big and persistent layers which are in good plumage and which have pale shanks, pale beaks and lobes, and red combs. The present show type of Single Comb White Leghorns, with low tails, small and evenly-serrated comb, etc., is about as valuable, in a utility sense, as a poodle dog. Pay no attention to these "points" unless you wish to follow the shows, when they become highly important. Large, thrifty, clean birds that are good layers are to be desired by the poultry man. ALFALFA TO FOLLOW WHEAT Thorough Disking and Frequent Harrowing Will Often Be All That Is Needed in East. When alfalfa is to follow winter wheat or other small grain crops in the East, a thorough disking, followed by frequent harrowings, will often be all that may be required, provided the land is worked shortly after the grain is removed. When plowing in this case is neces sary, the preparation of the seedbed will often be facilitated by disking ahead of the plow and by following the plow at oncewith a pulverizer and harrow.

Uric Acid! Ever since the discovery of Scheele is 1775 that uric acid was found within the body most eminent physicians agree that rheumatism ia caused by it; also many distressing symptoms as headache, pain in back, stomach distress, "swollen feet and ankles, gout, etc. It was Dr. Pierce of the Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, N.Y., who discovered a new agent called An uric, a harmless remedy that if taken before meals will carry off the uric acid from the system and in this way the pains and aches, the creaky joints and all the distressing symptoms of rheumatism and other maladies disappear. You can easily prove this yourself, by obtaining Anuric at almost any drug store, or send Dr. Pierce 10c. for trial package. Try it and be convinced that Anuric is many times more active than lithia and eliminates uric acid as hot water melts sugar.

You know what you are taking, as the formula is printed on every label, showing it is Quinine and Iron in a tasteless form. The Quinine drives out malaria, the Iron builds up the system. 50 cents. Real Experience. "Yes," said a traveling mau, "I was once out of sight of land on the Atlantic ocean twenty-one days." Another man spoke up: "On the Pacific ocean one time I didn't see land for twenty-nine days." A bald man knocked the ashes from his cigar and contributed his bit: "I starten to cross the Kaw river at Topeka in a skitf once," he said, "and was out of sight of laud before I reached the other side." "What!" demanded the man who had spun the first yarn. "The Kaw is not more than three hundred feet wide at Topeka." "Quite true," said the bald man quietly. "The skiff turned over and I sank twice." T WOMEN! IT IS MAGIC! LIFT OUT ANY CORN i T i $ Appiy a Tew arops men iitx j corns or calluses off with ! fingers no pain. Just think ! You can lift off any corn or callus withdlt pain or soreness. A Cincinnati man discovered this ether compound and named it f reezone. Any druggist will sell a tiny bottle of freezone, like here shown, for very little cost. You apply a few drops directly upon a tender corn or callus. Instantly the soreness disappears, then shortly you will find the corn or callus so loose that you can lift it right off. Freezone is wonderful. It dries instantly. It doesn't eat away the corn or cal lus, but shrivels it up without even irritating the surrounding skin. Hard, soft or corns between the toes, as well as painful calluses, lift right off. There is no pain be fore or afterwards. If your druggist hasn't freezone, tell him to order a small bottle for you from his wholesale drug house. adv. Although the average man may know when to stop, he seldom does It. It's a fortunate thing far one-half the world that the other half doesn't know how it lives or why. In proportion to its size a fly walks 13 times as fast as a man can run.
