Turning spring lambs and In some
aises older sheep to graze on the
weeds in cornfields has been found a
profitable practice, writes a corre
spondent of Farm Progress.
Where the land Is fenced they may
he used with much effectiveness In
1 preventing the weeds front going to
seed. Lambs are considered prefer
able to old sheep because they do not
soon learn to molest the corn, which
in some cases the old sheep do. and
: when the latter do this they should,
of course, lie removed at mice.
The lambs should he turned Into the
! cornfields at weaning time, and this
should be while the weeds are still
young and tender. The lambs will
then crop down the weeds as com
pletely as though the work were done
by hand. They will also crop off the
lower leuves of the corn and without
damaging the latter will thus obtnlu
much food.
But it may he necessary to supple
ment this food If the welfare of the
lambs is to be considered. As the
weeds grow much In the shHde, they
are more Insipid than plants, which
grow In the sunshine and are not very
nourishing. Kveu when newly weaned
lambs are turned to graze on good
pasture they should he given some
grain feed as a supplement. When
they pasture In corn. If thus fed, the
lambs will not only he directly bene
fited, hut the fertility added to the
land will be of much profit.
It would be a good plan at the time
the sheep are grazing In the cornfields
to give them access also to a field of
rape. When not feeding in the rape
they would seek the shade and cool
soil beneath the corn. They would ul-
ho roam occasionally all through the
cornfield In search of weeds or weed
seeds, with the result that the corn
field would be benefited while the
sheep were growing fnt.

Into hard work he generally has a fag

i horse seldom weighs well, and weight
in a draft horse, if it comes from bone,
sinew and muscle, goes n long way to
determine his commercial value.
W lien a horse Is well coupled togeth
er on top and,has a short back he must
have the length below from the point
of the shoulder to the back of the
thigh. When so built he will stand the
' strain of drawing heavy UuuW^inuch

parts of either a draft or n driving
horse that come directly in contact
with the hard work, aud unless they
are sound and good a horse's useful
ness will he very much Impaired and
his commercial value very much less

plump and elastic, because It acts ns a
buffer to take tlie coucusslon from act

dam have sound feet, free front fiat-
ness, brittleness, and are not contract

It Indicates coarseness. They should

A stallion whose feet are contracted
and brittle and whose hocks are puffy
and fleshy looking should he avoided,
as such hocks are generally associated
with a coarseness throughout IiIh whole
conformation and a general lack of
quality. Before using a stallion get
the groom to leud him away from you.

Gear Sir:—Policy 184,003 was written for the undersigned by your Company
1800, under the 20 pay, 5 year plan. Distribution first and second dividends exceeded
the estimate by the agent. I have just received notice of the third dividend amounting
to $722.50, which is left optional to he either withdrawn or allowed to remain with tho
Company. 1 was informed when the policy was first written that if the dividends ac
cruing on this policy were left over with the Company that there would probably ho
enough surplus to the credit of this policy to issue a paid-up policy at the end of the 14th
year. The Company notified me promptly at the end of the 14th year that I could get
a paid-up policy and discontinue payments if 1 desired to do so. I do not hesitate rec
ommending the /Etna Company to any person who may desire this kind of insurance, as
1 have always, and still believe it to he one of the most economical Insurance Companies
now doing business, Tho results of several policies which I hold in your Company have
been entirely satisfactory.
Hoping you success in your new undertaking, 1 beg to remain,
Yours truly,

The Vigorous Sow.
Experiments show that pigs from
large inters grow faster than those
from small litters. The sow that bus
u large number of pigs lias great vital
ity and nature provides a liberal
amount of milk for the large litter and
not as much for the small one. Mature
sows have stronger, heavier pigs than
tho e bred younger, and breeders find
it to their interest to keep a sow that
has large litters for a term ol years.
To malic such sows profitable two lit
tors must lie raised each year.

Clipping Farm Horses.
The advantages of clipping the farm
horses are found not only in the gieatei
comfort and ease with which they wIP
do their work, but also in the fuel that
when the day's work is over they will
dry off very quickly, thus being in a
condition in which the dust and filth
from the day’s work may be brushed
off and the horse made perfectly clean
for a good night’s rest.
Not only Is there greufp comfort
and a better physical condition In the
care of the clipped horse, hut there Is
less danger from scalded shoulders anti
from harness galls. Aud the clipped
horse, always being dry at night, is in
less danger from colds, will work
more easily aud keep in good condi
tion on less feed. The mane is a nui
sance on u farm horse and should be
cut close, thus keeping the horse cooler
ubout the neck aud collar and so re
lieving him from the danger of scalded
shonlders.—Cor. Farmers Advocate.

Fattening Steers.
The old method of cramming corn
into a steer regardless of whether or
not he digests it, depending on hogs to
pick up the undigested corn, Is a poor
as well as an old method. To put on
good flesh and to put it on fast a steer
should digest thoroughly all the food
that he takes into his stomach. The
food should he prepared carefully in
order that perfect digestion should take
place. Less corn and more ensilaged
foods should he used in finishing a
steer for ihe market, for the old idea
that corn is the only food that will fin
ish <i steer properly is demonstrated to
tit a mistaken one by experiment sta
tions conducted by responsible men se
lected by the government.—Farmers

Cut the cord off as high up as possible.
The wound may he healed by the use
of any of the- common disinfectants. A
teaspoonful of carbolic acid In a quart
of water may be used once dally until
the p'Ss are healed. Pigs should be
kept In a clean pen after the operation.

Clover Hay For Sheep.
Clover hay is an excellent feed for
ewes with lambs. Any farmer can
have this kind of feed. It ranks high
In milk producing food.
Q_ U
It is hard to estimate the value of
oat i on the farm. They make fine feed
for every animal found on the farm.
In short, no farmer ought to think of
being without them each year. In some
countries <ails do not grow as well as
In others, hut where they will grow
fairly well 1 think every farmer should
grow at least a few acres each year,
says E. J. Wnterslripe. Tin:-# Is no
animal hut that will relish oats and
get mud) good from them. If all farm
animals hud a few more oats mixed
with their corn they would thrive much
better.
Charcoal Mixture For Ho*«.
Take nine bushels of charcoal, eight
pounds of sail, two quarts of air slack
ed lime, a bushel of wood ashes; crush
charcoal and mix all thoroughly. Wet
this mixture with warm water Into
which one and a quarter pounds of cop
peras has been dissolved, and put tills
in separate troughs for hogs to feed
upon freely. The above is a time test
ed method of feeding charcoal, lime,
salt, ashes and eopperus as stated by
Theodore Louis.—Farm and Ranch.
PeunatH as Hog Food.
For ten or fifteen years the station
has grown annual crops of Spanish
peanuts and various other varieties lor i
a large portion of this time. As u liog
food nothing has been found that will
more cheaply produce a gain In weight
equal to that produced by the Spanish
peanut. As compared with corn, the
standard hog food, one-fourtli of an
acre of peanuts produced 3111 pounds of
pork, the same area In corn producing
only 100 pounds of pork, a difference
of nearly 300 per cent In favor of Span
ish peanuts as compared with corn.—

Grain For Calves on Pasture.
Answering an Inquiry as to amount
to feed calves on pasture, C. F. Cur
tiss of the Iowa experiment station
says in Breeder's Gazette: A 500 pound
calf on dry feed will consume from
eight to ten pounds of grain per day
and about the same amount of rough
age. It will not be possible, however,
to get the calves to eat more than about
half this amount of grain while they
are on good pasture. If the calves and
yearlings are to be finished during the
latter part of the summer or early full
I would suggest using some oats and
oilmeal in addition to the corn during
the last sixty days. There is not suf
ficient advantage In grinding feed for
calves under a year old to compensate
for the additional exnem
