ORICIEIAL EXTRACT OF WILD STRAWBERRY IS di Proper methods of judging Mutton and wool types of sheep are dry Bribed thus by George It. Samson of the ani coal husbandry department of the Ore t;^Itt Agrietatural college: The mutton type includes the lune, wools and the iu diuut %cools or "down" tweeds. These are both pro (hived primarily for their mutton. Ae• cordingly the points given greatest weight are those which pertain to s splendid mutton carcass, This impilt's the maximum of meat in that part of the carcass which brings the best price when sold over the block. Renee the back, loin and hind legs are of the greatest importance. The back and ribs should be well covered with firm flesh, which should extend well down on the sides. When the hand is placed upon the backbone and moved from side to side the prom inences on the backbone should not be noticeable. The loin should be wide and thickly fleshed. To determine this place the hands with the palms toward each oth- er in a vertical position on either side r.

The Cheviot sheep gets its name from the Cheviot halls, a range of low mountains on the border of England and Scotland. It is the principal breed of mountain sheep and has made a place for itself on this side of the Atlantic, where It has proved to be a valuable breed for farm use as well as crossing on native stock. The illustration shows a typical ram of this breed. of the loin and note the width. To de- termine the thickness place the ends of the fingers below the loin and the thumbs above. • The hind leg should be well fleshed down, and the hocks and the twist should be deep—that is, the flesh be- tween the hind leg should come well down even with the under line. The wool is of value and greatly de- serves attention. In the long wool breeds greater coarseness is found, but this should not be allowed to be- come extreme. The fleece should be thiel; and clean, the fibers should be strong, bright and free from dark or diseased spots. In the medium wools a thicker fleece is desirable, thickness sufficient to turn rain. The fibers, as in the long wools, should be relatively long, clean. lustrous and contain an abundance of grease. To examine a fleece the portion just over the heart is noted to discover the finest wool and that on the leg for the coarsest. There should be as little dif- ference in the fleece on these parts as possible. To open the fleece place loth hands, palm down, on the fleece and, shoving down slightly, pull the bands apart. This breaks the fleece without tearing. If the fleece is heavy it breaks on a smoother line than if light, when the fibers are quite likely to be inteftangled.

'ATO Breed From Mature Sows, Four Berkshire sows kept at the Florida experiment station farm dur- ing the past year farrowed twice in that time, producing a total of thirty lege in July and thirty-one the next spring. From the thirty pigs farrowed in July, 1010, twenty-six grew to matu- rity. Of the thirty-one farrowed dur- ing February and March, 1911, twen- ty-seven were saved. During the year the four sows farrowed sixty-one pigs, and saved fifty-three, or 87 per cent of all pigs farrowed. These four sows were farrowed in May, 1908, and had their first litter of pigs during November, 1009. The sows were therefore well grown and devel- oped when first bred. Good breeding stock is often injured by being bred when too young and immature. '.Young immature sows are likely to farrgvr pigs lacking , in vitality. Such pigs never grow and develop as they should and hence aro more expensive to raise. The Milking Shorthorn. Rose of Glenside has helped to mftin- tain the reputation of the milking Shorthorns by producing 18,075 pounds of milk in one year and making an average of 9,417 pounds a year for seven yearn. There are many Short- horn cows in this country with rec- ords of 10,000 pounds of milk in a year. The ancestors of the Modena ;Shorthorns were the dairy animals lag their hones country. Peace In the Hog Verd. To prevent strange hogs frons fight- ing when they are first yarded togoth- er—and this is often imperetive to pre- vent loss --mix a gill of turpentine with one-third as much lard, rub the noses of the hogs thoroughly and turn them together. They will never quarrel, says an old swine breeder. -- Farm Journal. A Sad Taking -off. From the Aylmer Express. On Saturday last our old office cat, "Alva" after a useful and happy life among the type and presses for about 16 years, passed peacefully away. She had evidently been sick for two or three days, as she did not show up in her regular haunts, but that morning she came back, showing unmistakable signs of sickness. There wasn't anything too good for her around the office, and the boys soon made her a comfortable bed, which she immediately took pos- session of, and where a few hours later she passed away. If there is a good place for cats in the future world, Alva is there. She whipped every dog that ever intruded on her domain during her life, and never "pied" a stick of type, no matter where it was left. She has devoured or destroy ed a barrel of rats and mice, and had her pint of milk regularly every day. She was the mother of many large and lively famil- ies, and outlived them all, most of them dying in early infancy. Her board bill cost us about $10 a year, or in all, about $100, but she was worth it, A Home Pointer. The neck ate] ehnuldere of a hnree are points that const riot for overlooked when buying.

Cotton seed may be fed to steers with good results, although the usual prat- dee now Is to feed the cottonseed meal remaining after the oil has been ex- tracted iu the mills, says the Breeder's Gazette. The cotton seed has a pro- nounced laxative effect if fed heavily. Titis may be overcome in part by cook- ing the seed. In atny event the best results are obtained by feeding not over six pounds of seed daily per head with a heavy feed of corn or Kaffir coria, In some tests cotton seed has given better results than cottonseed meal, but is more instances the reverse is true. In gone Mississippi tests it was found that one pound of cottonseed meal was equal to 1,6 pounds of cot- ton seed or _1,9 pounds of corn, while oue pound of cotton seed equaled 1.2 pounds of corn. Where It is desired to make n large use of cottonseed meal it may he ted for ninety days to the TANTE D A live representative for WINGHAM anti -ur•rounding District toqPli high-class stock for THE FONTIIILI NURSERIES \fore fruit trees will be planted in the Fall of 1911 and Spring of 1912 than ever before in the history of Ontario, 1'he orchard of the future wilt be e best paying part of the farm.

V GNE ; WELUN T00 TOEONTO, One of the fluctuations to which the breeders of live stock are some- times subjected is well illustrated by the remarkable rebound shown by the Flerefords of late, says the Kansas Farmer, This as a very use- ful breed of cattle which has had a widespread popularity, and yet it has seemed to be on the toboggan for some time past. Of late, how- ever, there has been a surprising renewal of Interest, and this has been shown at all the big state fairs in the corn belt, with a culmi- nation in the show ring and sales of the American Royal. Various causes are assigned for this "come- back," among which are the grow- ing scarcity of beef animals and the consequent revival of interest in this breed of rustlers and the inherent excellence of the breed. All these may have been factors, but the early maturing and beef producing qualities arprobably the most potent.

A product known its cold pressed cot- tonseed calve or Caddo cake is made from the crushed seed uncooked and without removing the bulls. This is more bulky and coarser tban cotton- seed meal, and it is claimed that the preparation without heating leaves it more digestible. It may be fed heav- ily with comparative safety and pro- duces larger gains than its composi- tion would lend one to expect. To get the largest gains with any feed de- rived from cotton seed it is necessary to feed corn in addition. Pumpkins For Cows and Hogs. Pumpkins have been in use for feed- ing cattle and bogs for many years and are valued very highly in some com- munities. They are especially valu- able for starting hogs on a ration of corn in the fall or for feeding sows and pigs. The seeds are very rich iu protein and also act as a vermifuge. clearing animals of worms and putting the digestive organs in excellent con- dition. Experiments have shown that it is as good to feed pumpkins raw as cooked. or better. The character of the pumpkin is such that it must be considered as a roughage rather than as a concentrate. This is shown to the case of hogs by a trial at the New Elampshlre experiment station where two lots of shotes were Ped raw pump- kins, one lot receiving in addition milk and the other milk and cornmeal. The first lot made a daily gain per pig of 1.12 pounds, while the fatted made a gain of 2.26 pounds.—I•'. G. King, Indi- ana Experiment Station. Silage For Beef Cattle. We fitted a bunch of cattle for our public sale last winter by feeding prin- cipally silage in an open yard, says an Iowa feeder in the Breeder's Gazette. They bad a little corn and cob meal mixed in with the silage and timothy hay for roughage, but did not see the inside of a barn until they went to the sale ring. We have never fitted a buaach of cattle that were in as good condition as these wero and in as good bloom. A great many good feeders were at the sale and were anxious to know how these cattle were fed, as they remarked that they wero in ad fine condition for public sale as any they had seen.
