Of all the farm animals the sheci

and with few exceptions whole gruii

mon saying of feeders, "a sheep whiel
cannot grind its own grain is uo
worth feeding," Is a truthful one. Vain

may bo continued in usefulness by be
Ing fed ground grain. In certain case:
grinding may prove beneficial At th<
Colorado station, when feeding west
ern sheep on wheat. Cooke observed
that much of the grain passed througl
the animals unbroken. At the Soutl
Dakota station Wilson and Skinner, 01
feeding millet Heed, which are smal
and have a hard covering, to lambs
found that a large percentage was
voided undigested. On grinding tin
millet it proved highly satisfactory.
The legumes are the prime souret
of roughage for sheep, clover and al
falfa in the East, alfalfa in the irrl
gated regions of the West, and th<
cowpen. beggar weed and other plants
In the South. Clover, one of the besl
of roughages for sheep, should be eul
early In order to secure the leaves anil

clover in pnlatahility and in tlie nu

ity it not only answers for roughage
but hi cause of its abundant nutriment

grain, thus materially reducing the
cost of feeding and fattening. At the
Oklahoma station, cowpea hay proved
equal to alfalfa hay for fattening

Now be it understood that women
arc the most delightful things In the
world. Hut their minds are the
minds of women, and as different
from the minds of men as day is
different from night.
When a man is engaged at the
business of producing something and
making money he is in his natural
element. Adam lay awake nights

Hut when a women sets about
making money, she is play-acting.

money making, but she is out of her

i- rieties of forage.
:t Next in value to hay from the legt
umes come the dry leaves of the corn
i- plant. For sheep feeding, corn should
^ bo cut early and cured in well-made
?- shocks. The sheep will eat a little
s more of the stalks if shredded, but cut
s ting will not induce them to eat any
- of the coarser parts.
I One of the advantages of feeding
i silage or roots to sheep is the tonic i K
i ajid regulating effect. Both corn silage 11
l and roots are greatly relished, and ?
I feeding trials show them to be about "
, oqual in nutritive value. The low cost '
i of producing silage should lead to Its '
i more common use. Hoots are univer-j V
sally fed to sheep in Great Britain, and !

producing high-quality mutton. Wet }

they should ho dipped In the most 1
thorough manner. In the West scab, ^
, and in the East lice and ticks, are. n
common troubles. To attempt to fat t(
ten sheep afflicted with any of these
nests is to court disaster. Sheep having
any ticks show increased irritability
and restlessness as soon as fat- 1
