Specinl Attention I "ays l<'re<|iient Clmnice of Pasture Beneficial Him to VV s>'i vc the Fertility of Mur.uro. (Contributed by Ontario l)epn rtment ol Agriculture. Toronto.) For best results !.imbs s'lotii'l b weaned at between four ami live months. It has been found tli&t under condition.) prevailing durirg the hot dry months of mid-summer the ewes will ciiop off considerably In their milk flow. The lambs receive comparatively little nourishmont, and it IB better for both ewe and Jar.ib for them to be separated. Waou tlie lambs are removed from tU tws they will misa little the small amount of milk they' would receive, and will soon loaru to depend upon pasture. They should receive .the very best pasture available. Nothing Tits in better than a patch of rape sown at the proper time, so as to be rcai'y for pasture when the lambs are weaned. Care should be cxc-rciaed In turning tho lambs on tlio fresh rape to avoid bloating and probable doath. Turn them in during the mid- dle of the day when thn rape K-avi-.j aro absolutely dry and allow thorn to become accustomed to the change. A flold of grass adjoining the r;ipo pasture will give better results than the rape alonw. If no rape is avail- able fresh clover seeding or second growth filover will give .satisfactory results. In addition to pasture a feed of grain onco a day will push the lambs along t>j a good finish. At no timo should It be n . ssury to feed over one-half pound of grain per day to each lamb \vliile on pasture. Frequent change of pasture Is benetlcial to, and relished by, all classes of stock, and this applies with 'special emphasis to the case of sheep. It is true for two reasons. Sheep arc subject to parasitic dis- eases which may be [.n-vented to a largo extent by not pasturing on any one area for too great a length of time. In addition to this th-y aro possibly more fastidious about their food than are some other farm anl- nials. It Is not practicable on c-Terjr farm to arrange, for a succession of pastures during the grazing season. However, tho saimi an-a will sustain considerable more sheep if such an arrangement is feasible. Rye sow* early In the fall furnishes a good <' .1 of pasture in the late fall and .>;.rii).

In the iir.-,t place the bottom of the pile or pit should bo impervious in water HO that lenchlngs from tho pile will not occur. Second, it is well to have a layer of old well-rotted ma- il urn at the bottom. Third, the ma- nure an it Is piled up should be well compacted or trumped down to pre- vent excess of ill ! from netlinu into It. Fourth, it should bo kept moist but not wet. ThfS'! precautions apply more particularly to h.irso manure, which is looso and comparatively dry. I ,.!.' this is kept well packed and imiltit. loss by lire faiiginy l.-t certain. This in an oxidation process, or fer metatlon, set going by certain b|>eeien of bacteria in the manure. It' cow or pig manure is available it should bo mixed with tho horse manure in tho pile, as theso aro very u-el ami emu pact and will give a guod ooiiHlsttMioy to the whole mass.

FOR the swine breeder who i? carrying on even a moderale- ly-slied business, the question of making economical gains is particularly Important at the presi-m Una*. Any system by which gciir..: eaa M made with a minimum use of hifh priced concentrates is of special to the feeder. There are few iustan*** In which the use of pastur nr BoiliBR rrofs. supplemented vitii grain, will not gi-ve greater gains ;il Irss coit than where th hugs are rained and flntohed on grain alone. Of the comparative value of soil- ing crops and pasture crops, it be said that from an ei.mcinii- . t point there is very litil differer.ee. V.'hile slightly greater ^ains are se- emed from the uae of soiling cropis. the extra work entailed in culling and carrying the gn en t. ed to the hogs balances theso Kr.ir.s.

Rye may be advisable in cases where a particularly early pasture Is ik - sired. A good arrangement of pasture crops is secured when alfalfa is pas- tured lirat, and when it is eaten off fairly well, a plot of red clover or KW>t!t clover can be pastured. The alfalfa may then be allowed to grow up for hay and a Held of rape sown to bo pastured later, when the clo\, r is done. Rape sown ai different in- tervals can be used alone, but gives | slightly inferior gains compared to the use of different pasture crops. It has been found by experiments car- ried on at widely distributed experi- ment stations, that the use of pas- (nro or soiling crops in feeding hogs enables the feeder to secure gains at from 20 to 30 per cent, less cost than whore grain feeding alone to finish the hogs on pasture its use i prac- ticed. When it is not desired to un- ish the hogs on pasture its use is still valuable because of tho healthy, thrifty condition it induces in the Krowlnjj hogs, thus making them much more likely feeders than when they are raised without sretMi feeds C.
