Scattered ThoughtsiabOut
Sheep Farming. .
Numerous experiments have been
made in ngland and Gerniany as to
zthe relatiVe merits of the hog, the sheep
and the ox as economicalfoodicensumers.
Sir J. BeLawes places that merits in
the order above named, but the Ger-
mans place the sheep below -11.e ox as an
economic producer of increase. This
probably only proves a difference in the
English :and German breed of sheep.
The hog far surpasses the ot er domestic
species as an economical con umer, this
being partly due to the more concentrat-
ed nature of the food conlurned, and
partly tO the greater capacity of the hog
for assinnilation. In sheep we should be
guided by the English experiments, our
breeds being derived/ from the old
country.' '
According to these experi4sents, a ton
of food after passing through thetstom-
ach of the ox has greater manurial value
than the same food, quantity fed quality,
after being dropped from • the sheep.
This is an important item iri discussing
the cry Of the stockman ths.ti more stock
must be kept in order to prOduce more
manure.; It has been the ,:!practice to
feed s'heep on poor land tot restore its
fertility,. in preference to 'cattle, but
this appears to be somewhat inconsis-
tent with the experiments above quoted.
However, as the sheep's dnbppings are
spread More uniformly over the land
than those of -cattle, it is quite likely
that, all conditions beingi considered,
sheep are more economical as fertility
restorers than cattle.
Is itnecessa.ry for the ave6ge farmer
to keep sheep ? Yes, and no. If he de-
pends upon luck, it may be. advisable
for him to grow a little of ;everything;
if he has hilly, unarable land, a flock of
sheep is a useful branch of fOrming, and
if his arable land require& enriching,
sheep wi..1 save a good deal of 6ind-wOrk ;
but as the non studious farmer hates to
lay out money for food; hd cannot re-
store fertility in this way. 1 He may,
however, enrich one field at !the expense
of anoth r. The exhaustion1of fertility
is depen ent upon two leadinig causes, (1)
the quantity and quality of title products
sold off the farm without I purchasing
foods or fertilizers, and (2) the method
of husbending the manurei, In these
days of tendency to specialties, the farm-
. er who,:h4s been successful 4i dairying
• or stocla-raising will keep mcire cows and
steers in "preference to a flock of sheep,
but thdre are many farmers who have
been suc(:)essful in sheep husbandry as a
specialty', and they can profitably stick
to the business. But there iii one note- .
ble feature which gives greater stability
to dairyitig, viz., our reputation in the
foreign markets against the; increasing
competition with foreign Obuntries— in
sheep and wool growing.
Farman who don't knoiSd endugh to
keep coutfortable shelter for%heir stock
in wintet will succeed beter ,evith sheep
than with cattle. Sheep delight in dry,
cold weather, which makes bur climate
well adapted to sheep, whilel other stock
1.
should be protected from col as well as
rem dampness. However, the lamb-
ing season is in winter o•r e rly spring,
it is necessary to have "comfortable
quartersfor the ewes and the lambs.
During dry, cold weather, sheep if
liberally fed, will flourish oist of doors
during the day, and they need abundance
of exercise. It is against the nature of
_ the shoe? to be closely ctmfined. It
loves to be fondled, however, and no
domestic animal is fonder Of freedom.
Its mats, if we may so eXpress it, is
•" variete, kindness and liberty." The
simple 4glect of this fundamental rule
often changes the balance to1 the wrong
side of the account.
Sheep also delight in punctuality on
the part ' of their attendant. Their
expectations run high when meal time
comes aeound. Lambs or gtOwing sheep
require bone and muscle forming .food,
and theshould therefore receive foods
rich in elbuminoids and 'Ariel -al salts,
such as bran, peas or oilceke not neglect-
ing root and coarse foods. , The coarse
foods are just as well uncuta but in this
case the !quality should be .good. Fall
grown fattening sheep requite more fatty.
foods, such as oat and corn lineal. Give
breeding ewes a variety of 41 the foods
abovementioned, Sheep, though dainty
createres, are better without condiment-
s], foods !O indeed, all domestic animals
are better without them—except those
fed for the show ring and Ifor the pro-
duction Of flesh which is unfit for human
cousuroiStio.n. Let there be free access
to the food trough, in such a manner
that there will be no crowding, the
,weaker auffering from thet (:)erbearine
conductt of the stronger. laeep the beds
dry, and let there be no waste from . im-
properly coostructed feed-recks.
If you have a hired man, your sheep
may find out his character sooner than
yourself. We will here let you into a
little secret : Watch yoor man when
he is in the sheep pen, and Observe close-
ly if the sheep tend to approach him or
. escape from him. This simple obser-
vation may often decide on which side
of your sheep account the balance will
be found. If he is in the habit ,of curs-
ing and swearing, rest assured that he is
had tempered, and is not afit compel -
iota for innocent sheep. ' He should
. take pride in the flock, should attend to
his dutiespunctually, and should win
the confidence and respect of every
sheep tied lambinthe pen. If yea' eoan-
not give your man such a character as
this, send him to the bush to chop
wood, and attend to the sheep yourself.
Of course the scrub sheep, like the
scrub cettle, should be weeded out every
year; but be sure not to begin weeding
out at the wrong end of the business.
If yout'sheep business is a scrub (that is
an unprofitable) industry, weed out the
whole concern, a.nd thus save yourself
the trot:dole of testing your whole flock
for sera]) animals. --Farmers' Advocate.

scapes there bends a sky, not Italian,
not deeply, darkly, beautifully blue, not
even at the autumn seasbn, but of that
white- Cerulean tint which seems ever to
remind you that the winter is close at

fleecy and comforting, and the light
which bathes the meadows has nothing
of the desert glare, nothing opthaline in

weary eyes of the traveler.

1 got this watch so womProns cheap
That I could scarce believe it good,
But science with its searebings deep, .
IIas done what custom never could,
And I have proved the truth of this
That highest value must attach
To that which never goes amiss,
The American "Columbus" watch.
Its neatness is as unsurpassed
As its good. qualities are proved,
'Tis a,Turate and made to last,
A watch by punctual MO) approved,
An able judge would pick them out
Of every maker's in a batch,
And none who tries will ever doubt
Papstee great "Columbus" watch.
The makers to the public sell
Their watches at the lowest price,
And all they do they do it well,
Without one trait of false device.
They don't incur a dime of debt,
They have no doubtful schemes to hatch,
And never has been equalled yet,
The American " Colunibus" watoh.
I do admirethehighest art,
And love in all things excellence,
For beauty seems the dearest part,
Arid worth the most approved by sense;
Beauty and worth combined have they,
And if you would have both to match
Decide without delay to buy
Papst's great " Columbus" watches.
