As lambing time approached we hurdled the owes in the barn, but this practice was not as convenient as feeding under cover. Time is an important element to the presentâ€"day farmer, and everywhere that we can practice esonomics it w.il pay to do so. Strong lambs are the reâ€" sult of good care and feeding, and to get them started on the right road reâ€" quires a little time. If he is vigorous after the first few days he needs pracâ€" tically no more attention other than that of being watched. Weak lambs require lots of close care for several days if they are to survive. A fow weak lambs will just about keep one busy looking after them, and this means attention well into the night.

Give her good clover hay of some kind _ once or twice a day, a little oats and corn, and she will bear as good lambs as any flockmaster could expect. We have fed silage in place of clover hay and linseed meal with the grain in small quantities. These feeds will put starch into the lambs which will arâ€" rive perfectly formed and make the owner feel he has gained something worth while, Too much corn is fattenâ€" ing to a pregnant ewe, so it is better to utilize more oats and clover hay and only enough corn to improve her fiesh and keep her appetite sharp for it. Our ewes enjoy a daily feed of good corn silage also. \_â€" Late winter is really harder on the ewes than the carly winter days, beâ€" cause they have by that time lost some of the flesh and fat that was put on them during the summer. _ Any farm breeding animal is the better for the good fiesh it carries, especially if it is bearing young. If the ewes are put into a good thrifty condition or kept in that condition during the winâ€" ter they will be more likely to bear strong lambs. On the other hand, if they must shift for themselves most of the winter, picking up dead stuff in the meadows and existing on the straw stack, the owner is likely to be disappointed in the lambs that arrive with all the flabbiness of a wet dishâ€" rag and about as useless, for often they will not last more than two or three days, if that long. of expense and care throughout the greater portion of the year, On many farms they are left to provide largely for themselves in the fields and round the stacks, ten months out of the year.
