Get a Shave -AT- 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. A Splendid Mneoln Ewe. The fine Lincoln ewe whose picture Is here reproduced from American Ag- Shaald Have l.oiiK Hllm, Short UftClr mid l.tirRO. Sound Feel. If a horse is short ribbed he Is light In his middle and is nearly always a poor feeder. lie has not stomach enough to contain sufficient feed to serve him l from one meal to another. When put Into hard work he generally has a fag ; god out appearance. A light centered 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 better than If he has a long, loose back, i The front feet and hocks are the 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 ened. The feet should he large and 1 waxy In appearance. The sole of the : hoof should be concave, the frog spongy, plump and elastic, because It acts ns a buffer to take tlie coucusslon from act ing too severely on the foot, pastern and fetlock. See that both sire and dam have sound feet, free front fiat- ness, brittleness, and are not contract ed. There should lte no “gutuminess" about the hocks of the draft horse, as It Indicates coarseness. They should he large, tint and firm aud should he wide, especially from a side view. 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. Btuud square behind hint and sec that I he picks up his feet and places them on the ground properly, traveling In both trot and walk clear and clean, not striking the ground first with the toe I and then bringing down the heel.

CENTRAL OF GEORGIA RAILWAY COMPANY TRANSPORTATION DEPARTMENT i. T. I, Supt. !, St., April 25. 1905. Ill Mr. W. A. Malone, Agent, Savannah, Ga. 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.

GUARD CHAMPION LINCOLN HUB. rioulturist won the grand champion ship at the St. Louis exposition. She was bred and Is owned by «l. T. Gibson of Canada. The animal was kept on blue grass pasture until Kepi. 1. lhdT. after which she was given some rape and green feed composed of oats, bran and oil cuke, beginning with a pint at first, the amount being gradually hi creased to a quart per day. Her feed during the past winter consisted of roots, clover hay, a small quantity of whole oats, bran and oil cake. 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. F. M. BRYANT, District Manager, Aetna Life Insurance Company Newnan, Georgia. liny I it i* 11 or***.

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.

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.

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.— Bulletin Arkansas Experiment Station. 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 A few doses or this remedy will invariably cure an ordinary at tack of diarrhea. It has been used in nine epi demics of dysentery with perfect success. It can always be depended upon, even in the more severe attacks of cramp colic and chol - era morbus. It is equally successful for snmmer diarrhea and cholera infantum in children, and is the means of saving the lives of many children each year. When reduced with water and sweetened it is pleasant to take. Every man of a family should keep this remedy in his home. Buy it now. It may save life. Price, 25c. Large Size, 50c. Z. Greene, D. D.
