IT PAYS TO DIP SHEEP
In dlseussing the fact of parasites
on sheep and methods for their
control, a Canadian authority gives
four good t'eas',ns as to why it Pays
to clip sheep. These are:
1, Sheep that are free from ticks
and lice grow more and better wool.
Z. A clean flock requires leas feed
and is more easily kept In good cam
dation,
3. The lamb crop is stronger,
ewes milk better, and lambs grow
more rapidly.
4, Parasites are a source of
serious disconitort to sheep. The
good shepherrl should be mindful
of the comfort of his flock,
He also points out that as a
result of dipping the saving in feed
and increased weight of lambs and
wool may easily amount .0 from.
50c to $1,50 per ewe. Tote cost
01 dipping under ordinary condi-
tions should l:ot exceed three
cents per head.

THE MEASUREMENT OF FUEL -

Fuelwood is sold by the Cord or
by the wagon box load. A stars
dard cord Is a pile of wood 4 fast
high, 4 feet wide and 8 incite, iu
length, giving a total volame of
128 cubic feet. The amount of
solid wood in a cord varlet consid.

diameter of :1'e sticks, lcoyo piling
and prominent knots are common
characteristics that recipe: the
volume of solid wood in a cn1•d.
It is customary in many lucol'ties
to sell wood by the short, face of
running cord. A short cord of
wood Is a pile 4 feet high, 8 feet
long and 12, 14 or 16 inc0es fn
width depending on the market re-
quirements. A standard acid of
4 foot wood is fsual to 4 c.,rds of
12-1nch wood or 3 cords of 16.inch
