GRAIN RATION.
A good grain ration for lambs is
made as follows: Mix one-third part
of oilmeal with one part each of bran,
oats and fine cornmeai. Red clover
hay or the second cutting of alfalfa
hay are the most desirable form of
roughage. Of the two alfalfa is to be
much preferred. Farmers’ Home
Journal.
GREEN BONE FOOD.
In connection with green bone, foods
rich in carbonaceous elements should
be fed to supply heat and energy, and
when this is done there is no good
reason why the egg basket should not
be kept full at all times. The man
who feeds intelligently is the one who
reaps the greatest profit from his
fowls. —Farmers’ Home Journal.
FOWLS IN COLD WEATHER.
According to good practical author
ity when the cold weather begins the
capacity of the hens for finding a por
tion of their food will be lessened;
hence they must be supplied by the
poultrvman. Not only will ground
oyster shells and gravel be necessary,
but green food and water. Green
food is easily obtained by using finely
chopped clover, which should be
steeped in boiling water and fed early
in the morning.—Weekly Witness.
SHEEP ON THE FARM.
An Arkansas reader states what a
few sheep are doing for him. He
says:
I figure my sheep produce an aver
age of about ten pounds of wool at
twenty to thirty cents per pound,
which is from $2 to $3 per head for
the wool alone.
I expect my lambs to bring at least
$3 per head, depending, of course, on
size and market prices. Total for
wool and lamb, $5 to $6 per head per
year.
This is, I consider, about an aver
age for common sheep, but with sell
ing a few for breeding purposes the
average price can be raised, which
will mean more profit on the herd.
I think the average man can take
a flock of sheep and will find no trou
ble in making $5 to $6 and often
much more clear money per head per
year.
I find that the raising of sheep is
fme of the surest profits of any on
, (he farm, and it comes when it is
yually needed.
ZIME ON LIGHT AND HEAVY SOILS
Sandy soils do not require as large
amounts of lime as are needed for the
profitable utilization of heavy lands
—possibly only one-third or one
fourth as much, according to Profes
sor Voorhees, of the New Jersey Ex
periment Station. In heavy soils com
paratively large quantities of lime are
needed for the maintenance of satis
factory moisture and aeration condi
tion. It is one of the functions of
lime in such soils to cause the fine
particles to flocculate, to increase the
size of the air spaces and to make
possible a more rapid circulation of
air and moisture. Thorough liming
of heavy soils facilitates the escape of
excessive moisture and permits them
to warm up at an earlier date. Va
rious chemical and bateriological ac
tivities are encouraged and the pro
ductive power appreciably increased.
Lime undoubtedly encourages the ac
tivities of various kinds of soil bacte
ria. It encourages the processes of
decay and nitrification. It hastens
the disappearance of the humus, but
provides also for a more abundant
supply of available nitrogen to crops.
MISTAKE IN HOG FEEDING.
J. L. Stratton told the Farmers’
Institute these sixteen mistakes in
feeding hogs:
It is a mistake for one inexper
ienced to undertake the feeding of
hogs unless he expects to make a
study of it and improve upon his mis
takes.
It is a mistake for the city farmer
living in town to trust the feeding of
his hogs to the aVerage hired man.
He is not likely to make a success
of it.
It is a mistake to try to raise hogs
on an exclusive diet. You ask what
kind of feed to give them. I will ask
what kind of feed can be produced on
your farm and in your locality, then
give them a variety of it. These feeds
should be given in such relation to
each other as to meet the varied
needs of the swine system.
It is a mistake to forget that the
hog is a grazing animal.
It is a mistake if the hog is not fed
in a clean place, free from both dust
and mud.
It is a mistake to over-work or un
derfeed.
Ordinarily it is a mistake not to
feed the liquid before the solid food.
It is a mistake to feed constipating
food and nothing to correct it.
It is a mistake to feed breeding
stuff as if-you were fitting it for the
market.

You Look Prematurely Old
To Enlarge a Coat.
A coat or jacket that is too tight
across the front may often be suf
ficiently enlarged <by the addition of
a narrow vest of cloth in white or
some light color.
When the jacket is tight all over,
the cas is still not hopeless. Rip
one seam at a time, press the seam
edges flat, then baste themj to a
strip of strong lining goods, applied
to the under side of itho cloth. Make
the two raw edges meet; in this way
from one-half to three-quarters of an
Inch may be gained at each seam.
After every seam is treated, try on
the coat, and if the necessary in
crease has been secured, complete
the work by strapping each seam
with braid or a fold of cloth, say 9
Woman’s Life.
It is possible to calculate before
hand how many Inches larger the
jacket should be and also how much
may be gained at each seam.
If the jacket has a dart at the
front, the effect will be bebter if the
strapping is continued to the shoul
der.

Some people look on a doctor’s pre

that some symptoms may come from

take a medicine prescribed for a
friend is a very risky thing to do and
! may do a great deal of harm.

Womans Power |||
Woman’s most glorious endowment is the power
to awaken and hold the pure and honest love of a
worthy man. When she loses it and still loves on, ! V.
no one in the wide world can know the heart agony K*
she endures. The woman who suffers from weak*
ness and derangement of her special womanly or- 1
ganism soon loses the power to sway the heart of YL
a man. Her general health suffers and she loses
her good looks, her attractiveness, her amiability
and her power and prestige as a woman. Dr. R.V. Pierce, cf Buffalo, N.Y., with
the assistance of his staff of ahle physicicns, bus prescribed for and cured many
thousands of women. He has devised a successful remedy for woman’s ail
ments. It is known as Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. It is a positive
specific for the weaknesses end disorders peculiar to women. It purifies, regu
lates, strengthens and heals. Medicine dealers sell it. No honest dealer will
advise you to accept o substitute in ordor to make a little larger profit.
