No matter how well tife ewe may be fed just previous to the time of lambing, she will not be in her best condition to nourish her offspring unless eh e is in fair con - clition at the time of mating, writes Mr. Elmer lienderson. The reason is at once apparent. If a ewe is thin when she is bred the burden of growing the young is too much of a strain upon, her to allow of her gaining much flesh. This brings us to what is known as flushing among old shepherds. "I've tried all kinds of health foods, but none of them seems to fit my ease." "What is it you are troubled with V' "An appetite." Th Flushing may be defined as put- ting the ewe upon highly succulent and nutritious feeds previous to maItihnaglre said. before it was neces- sary to have the eye in good flesh at the mating season. This is just the object of flushing. It has been found by all practi- cal shepherds that a. pint of grain in September is worth a quart at lambing time. The reasoli is that the ewe fed grain in the fall has very little burden to bear in the shape of the growing young while in the ease of the ewe. heavy with lamb all the food eaten goes roost- ly to nourish the foetus. It will be inferred that if grain will make the difference in the -condition of the ewe, graes will do the same and this this is just what happens, The ewe that has plenty of good nutri- tious grasses in the fall is almost, sure to come to lambing time in good heart and raise a good, lusty lamb, while the reverse is true of the ewe that is tot given a good chance. Flushing is especially desirable in large flocks where it is desirable to have the ewes all lamb at nearly the same time. With many flockmasters it is eon sidered desirable to have the ewes bred as early as possible so as to have the lambs ready for the early and, therefore, best market. It has been found theft by flushing thLeaerlTer thtenYtmheayy ,,rouraldacioetrerbwig , and most of *exit will lamb in a eomperatively .short period. . It is well known that ewes come in heat with the comine of cool weather, and it is probablyttrue that the fresh, palatable grass, by cooling the system and invigorate ing the ewe by a fresh flow of blood infuses into her new vigor which puts her in much the same condi- tion that she is in the advent el cool weatb.er. Whether this is the reason or no\ does not matter to the farmer it, he knows whether this or somk, other reason applies, he gets tha" results looked for, which is of vastlir more importance. Oftentimes the means nearest at hand are the best and this is true in our particular case. The mea- dow is always at hand and could easily be used for fall feed for the ewes. The aftermath that springs up in the fall makes good growth and furnishes a very nutritious and highly palatable food. If there is soine clover in it so much the bete ter, as there is no food better for sheep. Rape makes a very excellent food and I am very partial to it. A small patch of rape sown in the summer, by this time is large enough to make a lot of good feed.: Another way is to sow rape in' the Gorr, at the last cultivation and turn the sheep in the corn. If a few sheep are turned into a lot of rape and corn they may be allowed to run there for some tim,e before they will in any way danaage the corn. Then, too, this furnishes fine feed for the lambs after the ewes are taken out. They may be allowed to run here all fall and will live 011 • the rape and lower blades of corn, and if the, corn is not down too much they will not bother the esi.
