MWEPENDS ON START OF LAMBS
*
■H skStol sW
In the Fleece.
So much depends upon the start the
lamb gets in his first two or three
weeks that we are -justified in spend
ing as much time as we can possibly
spare in looking after the flock during
lambing time. If the weather is cold
and raw, the mortality among the
lambs is going to be much greater than
it will be if the weather is mild
through April.
The April lamb has a much better
chance to do well than the lamb that
is dropped earlier in the season. How
ever, if they come on a chilly, damp
day, it will pay the owner to be near
at hand, where he will have a chance
to see that the youngster gets his first
drink of milk as soon as possible. That
will keep the new lamb from chilling,
and when he is once chilled, /he is
sometimes pretty hard to get back on
his feet.
Where the lamb really gets a chil
ling, the best remedy is a bucket or a
tub filled with water, well warmed,
writes Louis G. Hall of Kansas in the
Farm Progress. Place the lamb in
this for a few minutes, take him out,
rub him dry and bundle him up un
der a stove or near a warm fire till
he is warmed all the way through.
It is absolutely necessary that the
milk flow of the ewe be kept up after
the lamb’s arrival. Where you have a
few roots to feed before the gradh
comes, these will work wonders in
stimulating the milk. Roots and a lit
tle grain will insure plenty of milk,
and I know of no grain that can equal
oats in ewe feeding.
When there is some doubt as to
whether the ewe is giving the lamb
enough, always fall back on bran as a
part of the ration. Bran will stimulate
the milk flow in the ewe just as suc
cessfully as it does for the dairy cow,
and it should be kept up as long as
isKr JU
Shearing Day.
MEXICAN FEEDING
METHODS ARE GOOD
Successful Turkey Raisers Cook
Everything Fed Turkeys—
Must Have Free Range.
(By C. M. SCHULTZ.)
Mexicans, who are successful tur
key raisers, cook everything they feed
young turkeys. They boil meat, beans,
corn bread, onion tops, and ’most any
thing they can get hold of, and al
ways include red pepper. Most north
ern breeders would consider red pep
per, or even green peppers, too stim
ulating, but the Mexicans, to our
knowledge, use it liberally, with excel
lent success.
Young poults are fond of fresh
curds, and thrive on it. They must
be kept perfectly dry, as they are sub
ject to roup.
As soon the the poults come off the
nest they should be thoroughly exam
ined for lice. The best remedy is
lard and pulverized sulphur in a pro
portion of about one-fourth sulphur to
three-fourths lard. This must be used
sparingly, by rubbing a little of the
mixture on the top of the head, among
the pin feathers of the wings and
iround the tail, and also along the in
side of the wings and about the
highs.
If the poults do not seem to thrive
veil in a week or twb, they should be
tgaijg examined because more young
uijAk die from lice, g^rhaps^^ than
ir£H&sr trouble.
also wo
it is needed. Os course, there is usu
ally very little trouble after the grass
comes.
Plenty of clover hay or alfalfa along
with a little mixed Ij'ran and oats will
keep the lambs growing. That is a
point to be considered. I -am certain
that a lamb that once gets a real check
in his growth never "grows out’’ just
as he should. Os course the ewe must
be kept in as good general condition
as possible. Before grass comes there
is usually some trouble from constipa
tion among the ewes. Bran feeding
will relieve this condition and keep
the ewe from letting up in her milk
production.
The ewe is inclined to be a little fe
verish after lambing, and about all she
needs for the first day is a little hay
and plenty of water. For the first
week or ten days she should be
watched for any indications that the
udder is caking and given quick atten
tion when trouble is found.
Within a couple of weeks after they
are dropped, healthy lambs will begin
to try to eat. They will nibble around
the trough when their mothers are fed
and they should be taught to eat at
that time if you wish to crowd them
along and get them ready for the fall
markets.
The best plan is to fence off a little
feeding place for them where they will
not be bothered by the older animals.
One corner of the lot can be set apart
for them. Fix the fence so the open
ings will be large enough to admit
the lambs and shut the old sheep out.
Feed them cracked corn or at least see
that it is shelled, as they will not be
able to get the grains off the cob.
Where oats, bran, wheat, barley or
any combinations of these grains are
fed, the ration will need no special
preparation.
it is thoroughly done. The bird should
be laid on its back and the dust should
be well'; worked into the feathers un
der the wings, around the head and
tail, particularly along the coarse
feathers of the wings and tail.
Turkeys cannot be raised with a cer
tainty unless confined within a stock
ade containing plenty of room. If al
lowed to run in the woods or fields with
out the most careful herding, they will
soon fail to come home at night, and
quickly fall a victim to storms and ro
dents. Within the stockade they must
be carefully watched and be brought
to shelter when a storm approaches.
If the young poults are allowed to be
come wet and draggled in the rain
and wet grass, they quickly fall vic
tims to roup and other troubles of this
kind. If carefully watched and fed,
they will soon learn to return to the
house at night with the mother hen
where they must be confined and pro
tected against rats and other maraud
ers. It is not a good plan, however,
to shut up turkeys in a close house.
The entire front should be left open,
being covered only with poultry wire.
Conducive of Roup.
Remember that sudden changes
from wet to dry and from dry to wet.
in even very mild countries, is more
liable to bring on roup, colds and
other poultry ailments than is the
steady dry cold of our more northern
latitudes.

When, Daughter Thought, Every

Mother Came to Rescue.
Louisville, Ala. —In referring to her
recent troubles, Mrs. Bessie E. Bruce,
of this town, says: “After childbirth,
I suffered greatly with wasting, and
various womanly troubles, and was in
bed for six weeks. Half the time, I
could not move, onlj 7 when I was
turned over by some one. Oh! how 7 I
suffered, no one knows.
I was told that I would have to go
through an operation, but at the time
of the operation, I was too weak to
undergo it, and I decided there was no
chance for me.
As a last resort, my mother advised
me to try Cardui, the woman's tonic,
and my husband bought me a bottle.
I could tell from the first that it w 7 as
doing me good, and by the time I had
taken the first bottle, I could stand on |
my feet. I got another bottle, and
before I had taken it up, I was just ;
about well. The pains all stopped,
and in a short while I was able to do ■
my work.
I know that Cardui saved my life,
and I would not be without it in the
house. I almost waited too long, and
I advise all suffering women not to
wait, but to begin taking Cardui at i
once.”
