PROFIT IN STUDY OF WORDS
Much Can Be Accomplished by Devot
ing a Short Time Each Day
to the Subject.
The study of words; it may sound
to you a dry thing, yet I promise
you it is not—very far from it. And
this brings me to suggest that the
habit ot one of the great writers of
■studying carefully from a good dic
tionary five words each day is one
from which we might ah of us get a
good deal of profit. Or, take a good
book of synonyms, for instance, and
learn from it each day five words
somewhat similar, comparing and
weighing carefully the meanings and
values of them. Notice the degrees
of force in the following: To dislike,
to hate, to loathe, to detest, to ab
hor—each note struck is a little
stronger, higher, we might say, like
an ascending crescendo scale. So,
to instruct, to teach, to educate are
each quite different in meaning, with
great nicety of difference. So, re
buke, reprimand, censure, blame are
all of one color, but of how different
shades of meaning. So. too, misfor
tune, calamity, disaster; so, weak,
feeble, decrepit; and what delicate
difference between fame and renown,
or feminine and womanly and wom
anish ?—Exchange.

to help the young woman who is
“compelled to sit out dances.” Half
a century ago and the young woman
would not have been allowed even
to sit out these dances. G. W. E.
Russell tells of the restrictions which
hedged in the fashionable miss:
“Young women were only allowed
to waltz with their brothers or cous
ins. Their acquaintances were lim
ited to square dances. No sitting
out at a ball was permitted. At the
end of each dance the man took his
partner back to her chaperon, to
whom he made a bow as he restored
her charge.”—London Tinies.

EXCELLENT FOR SHEEP
ALFALFA ALMOST INDISPENS>L
BLE TO LIVE STOCK GROWER.
From Comparative Obscurity It Haa
Come Into Prominence During Last
Ten or Fifteen Years for
Breeding Animals.
(By R. J. KINZER.)
The use of alfalfa cannot be too
strongly urged with sheep, either the
breeding or fattening stock. As the
method of farming has become more
intensified and the open range grows
less each year, an acre of alfalfa must
be made to take the ’ lace of many
acres of range pasture.
Sheep, being ruminants, are able to
handle a much more bulky feed than
b.orses. A breeding flock of sheep can
be carried through the winter season
very successfully with but little grain
in addition to alfalfa hay. Ordina
rily the first cutting of alfalfa is not
as good for sheep as the second and
third cuttings, as it is usually coarse
and stemmy, and sheep do not eat
these stems readily.
It is about as safe to pasture old
sheep on alfalfa as it is cattle. They
thrive on it, and make excellent gains;
but sheep bloat easily and there is
likely to be a little loss from this
source. Lambs can be pastured on
alfalfa with but little danger of bloat,
and the way they grow on alfalfa is
a delight to the shepherd. They should
never be put on the pasture, when
they are empty and hungry, and it is
always well to allow them access to
some dry feed and keep them off
the alfalfa until the dew is off; also
on damp days. A mixture of alfalfa
and brome-grass or alfalfa and or
chard grass is a safer pasture than
alfalfa alone.
A flock of ewes and lambs can be
grazed for a short time each day on
alfalfa with but little danger of any
Pure-Bred Ewes Wintered on Alfalfa
Without Grain.
loss. If a lamb-creep can be arranged
from the sheep corral to an al
falfa pasture, the lambs will soon
learn what it is intended for and will
do far better on it than if confined to
a dry yard. Newly seeded alfalfa can
be pastured with less danger of bloat
than an old field, and the packing of
the ground by the sheep passing over
it is frequently a great benefit to the
alfalfa.
As a roughage for fattening sheep
alfalfa hay has no equal, and cases of
bloat from the hay are exceedingly
rare. It can be fed either whole or
cut, and fed with grain. Many prefer
this method of feeding, claiming that
there is less waste by it. In feeding
experiments nothing has been found
for roughage that equals alfalfa for
fattening sheep. In an experiment
at the Kansas station, alfalfa and
prairie hay were compared as rough
ages. In the test the grain ration was
corn and cottonseed meal for both
lots. Those receiving alfalfa hay made
an average daily gain of .336 pounds
per head, while the lot on prairie hay
made only .188 pounds per head daily,
the alfalfa lot making almost twice as
great gains. The alfalfa seemed to
give the lambs a better appetite and
they were always ready for their grain,
and as soon as their grain was cleaned
up they were ready for the alfalfa.
MANAGEMENT OF RUNT PIGS
Excellent Practise to Place Them in
Pasture by Themselves to Avoid
Jostling and Crowding.
(By W. F. PURDUE.)
Some runts are naturally weaklings,
while others are the result of injuries
or underfeeding. The poor feeder will
have more runts in his herd than the
good feeder —no question about that.
We always place ours in a lot or
field by themselves, where they will
have good pasture, and a chance to
eat their meals without being knocked
and jostled around by their larger
mates. The poor things never have
half a chance when allowed to run
with the herd, and in consequence
they will never pay for the feed they
consume.
By separating them, however, and
giving these runts some special care
they ought to return some profit.
Ground grain mixed into a thick
slop with milk, is what the runts need,
instead of an exclusive diet of ear
corn. Then keep them free from lice,
and provide them with warm shelter,
so that all the profit will not be chilled
out in damp or cold weather.
Working for Independence.
Give more attention to the orchard,
the garden, the poultry and the farm
animals, and it will not be necessary
to worry so much over the general
crops. With fruits, vegetables, poul
try, eggs, milk, butter, pork and other
articles of food raised. on the farm
for the family table it will not require
very large crops to make you inde
pendent on the farm.
Protect the Birds.
Protect and shelter the birds aa
much as possible. A few wind breaks
cr thickets of brush on the farm give
the birds a nesting place and they pay
for it by catching many injurious in
sects.
