BOWSFIELD Farmers who followed the advice glven in this department two years ago and Mrs. C. M. Johnson and daugh- ter, Ruth, left Saturday morning on a motor trip for Grand Rapids where they will visit with friends. They expect to return the first part of this ‘week. Mrs. Henry Sweet and daughter, Miss Harriet, left Friday evening for Minneapolis where they will visit relatives. A grocery shower was given in honor of Mrs. Martin Holbrook Sat- In establishing flocks of sheep have made money by the experiment. All who have sheep and lambs to sell are reaping liberal profits. .The market has seemed too high in recent months for successful feeding operations, and this is an argument in favor of maintaining a permanent flock, for, while it pays, generally speaking, to ship in and fatten lambs and yearlings, there are times like the present when prices get too high to make it a safe proposition. The clear money is in raising the stock. Sheep are thrifty animals. getting their living to a great extent in flelds that would not da for cattle. It has been demon- strated time and again that mutton i8 produced much more cheaply than Dbeef. The wool produced by a flock of sheep will pay the whole cost of feed- ing and housing, leaving the increase for profit. It does not require a large tarm to be able to turn off 100 head of sheep and lambs every year. This will give a net profit of $700 to $1,000. Two hundred or 300 head can be raised without much extra work. Farmers may succeed with sheep and clean up a tidy sum of money when they are not equipped to handle a dairy proper- Iy. For the amateur and those with small tracts of land sheep are one of the best features. Two classes of men are making mon- sy from farm flocks of mutton sheep— IT PAYS TO MAINTAIN A PERMANENT FLOOK OF SHEEP. one, those who are gifted with natural ability to select breeding_animals and look after every detail that will add to the welfare of the flock; the other, those with a determination and who persistently study and labor until they acquire a working knowledge of the sheep business. Farmers on high priced land sometimes have the opin- ion that they cannot afford to keep sheep, supposing the land too valuable for that purpose. There are many flock owners, on the other hand, prov- ling that farm land is never so high priced but that sheep can be kept and made to yield a handsome profit. If a farm confaing a weedy field or rough bit of ground sheep will make it profitable. They are excellent for cleaning up fence corners and all the odd places about a farm: There are numerous sources of profit in sheep feeding and raising, one of the advantages being that an interest- ing branch of industry is furnished for the winter months when ordinary work on the farm is light. Sheep rais- ing also furnishies a convenient market for the odds and ends of surplus farm products, making it especially profita- ble in comparison with cattle feeding, as the sheep use a greater varlety of home grown and cheap feeds. Choice of feeds depends to a large extent upon the condition in which the breeding flocks enter winter quarters. If in good flesh and having access to plenty of roughage, such as clover, millet, al- falfa, roots or corn silage, hardly any grain is necessary; but if the sheep are in a thin, weak condition no time should be lost in supplying them with hearty grain rations. Otherwise re- sults at lambing time will be disap- pointing. To make the best gain sheep in winter quarters should be kept sep- arate from lambs, rams and feeders. Weak, thin ewes should be separately housed or yarded so that they may get their share of the feed. Sheep will do best if not too closely confined or kept too warm. They need a dry yard for exercise, with a constant supply of water. In winter they require a shed that is dry and kept clean. One of the positive phases of profit 1s found in the valuable fertilizer which sheep sup- ply. The kinds of sheep best adapted to the needs of men who make meat pro- duction a branch of their farming are found among several popular breeds. Wool as well as mutton being a valua- ble consideration, it should not be en- tirely left out of attention even in cal- culating the profits of feeding. The general purpose types of sheep contain such well known breeds as the Shrop- shire, Hampshire, Oxford, Southdown and Dorset. Under conditions in the central states there is a large demand for sheep that will shear a good weight of fleece and still give a large mutton carcass. Such conditions are met by these medjum wooled breeds. KKKKKRKRKKRKKKKRKKS K NYMORE NEWS * % (By Speclal Correspondent) & (SRR S S SRS R R LS 0 Mr. and Mrs. R. W.
