SOWING RAPE IN CORNFIELD Dwarf Essex Rape Broadcasted After Final Cultivation Best Adapted for Sheep Pasture. As a feeding preposition there ls none that gives better profits, consid ering the amount of capital invested, than fattening sheep in the cornfield where rape has been sowed at the last ^cultivation of the corn. The sheep may be bought early, and pastured or fed earlier soiling crops until the rape is flt for them to be turned into the cornfield. The Dwarf Essex rape is the variety best adapted for sheep pas ture. About five or six pounds of seed will afford an excellent stand, if sowed broadcast after the final cultivation of the corn crop, providing that the con ations are favorable for an early ger mination of the seed. Practically no damage will result to the corn crop; the sheep will con sume a large percentage of the lower leaves and lodged stalks. Old breed ing ewes that have passed their ma ternity usefulness, can always be bought at prices which make them profitable to turn Into a rape and corn field. Yearling wethers may be fat tened In the same way. No grain foods will be required. Bane alone will pro duce enough Increase to insure a good profit By growing rape with the corn crop, and pasturing it with sheep, an intelligent flock owner may greatly increase his income from his corn crops. RING WORM IS EASILY CURED University Expert Favors Iodine and Acetic Acid Treatment for Re mova! of Trouble. (By iL BL REYNOLDS, University Farm, St. Paul.) Bing worm appears most commonly In cattle as a round, slightly raised, bald patch, being seen especially about the head and neck of a calf or year ling. Older cattle, other animals and men are subject to the trouble. It is caused by minute vegetable parasites which grow under the skin, something like mildew in a grape leaf. Bing worm can be rather easily cured by giving the spots a good scrubbing with soft soap and water, then treating them once each day with ?quai parts of tincture of Iodine and glacial acetic acid. The treatment may be continued for several days, ?as appears necessary. WEANING COLTS IS SIMPLE Ordinary Youngster Should Be Taken ' From Its Mother V/hen From Four to Six Months Old. The ordinary colt is best weaned ?rom its mother at from four to six months of age. If the mare has been re-bred or is kept at constant hard work, four months is none too soon, otherwise, six months. If prop erly handled, weaning is a simple mat ter. Before weaning, the colt should be gradually accustomed to u rather full hay and grain ration, so that when final separation comos there will be no setback. And the separation must bc Splendid Mare and Foal. complete, the foal and its dam not be ing permitted to see or smell each oth er for some weeks. Good clean oats form the best of all grains for the weaning foal, but in order to build up ' bodily fat which the colt needs In cold weather, one fourth of the grain ration in the fall and winter may consist of ground corn. Also, several small handfuls of oil meal may be added with good results. Let the colt have plenty of good clean mixed hay, plenty of good water und a clean bed. KEEP SWINE IN CLEAN PENS Cholera Germs and Vermin Flourish Most in Hot Weather-Avoid Trouble by Cleaning. Lice and cholera germs flourish most in hot weather, and both by a little work may be prevented. Bun ning for remedies and cleaning up when a flock is down with contagious disease ls certainly a ridiculous and fruitless proceeding and exhibition of how not to do it MIXTURE FOR HOG PASTURES Four Pecks of Oats and Four* Pounds of Rap? to Acre Will Furnish Ample Supply of Gras?.
