If you have not abundant | eapply of clear, pure water, easy of ac- cess to sheep, we hasten to advise you not to attempt sheep raising. “Low, marshy or spouty, land is an abomination to the flockmaster; but Kansas is so free from this character of land that the caution seems uncalled for. But the ponds—the ponds some- times called artificial'lakes, but, rath- er, artificial cesspools—arain them, drain them dry, or apply the herd law and fence them (the sheep) out.” The above true remarks were made by Hon. F. D. Coburn of Kansas, and will be indorsed by all practical shep- herds. It has as truly been said the hog cholera follows the course of streams, is most virulent near their banks and fades out at a distance from such waters. We know, too, that an- thrax is often spread by watering pends and creeks and we see from the above the danger of stagnant water for sheep. In England the liver fluke, which passes one period of its life-his- tory within the body of water snails, is only prevalent in low-lying, marshy Places, It ‘is likewise true of some of the intestinal parasites of sheep that they’are worst on such lands and it is proverbial that sheep should be kept high and dry. Some argue that sheep do not drink water, but they should just watch them in hot summer weath- er when the grasses are dewless even in the early morning. They do drink water and it should be pure. We have known of wholesale abortion among ewes which drank water polluted with the leechings of a manure pile. We have seen an epidemic of enteric disease among sheep from drinking stagnant water, while the ophthalmic disease of sheep and cattle may often be traced to a similar source of in- fection. One always finds on investi- gation that a successful sheep-raising country is a country flowing with pure streams of water and dotted witb ponds fed by everlasting springs. Feed for Size. Horse breeders cannot make a worse mistake with their foals than to shut them away from the dams be- fore they can eat crushed oats and bran. Size must be obtained in these days, and if a youngster is allowed to lose time during the first winter of its existence, no amount of forcing will make up for it afterwards. It is not necessary or even desirable to confine them in a small yard, and stuff them with cooked foods of va- | rious sorts in order to cover their ribs with a lot of flabby fat. Plenty of room, with sound, natural food, is the best way to produce horses with good constitutions.” The above paragraph, taken from the London (Eng.) Live Stock Journal, teaches the soundest kind of doctrine. i It has often been pointed out in these columns that “calf flesh” if once lost can never be regained, and this ap- | plies with equal force in the growing of colts. The “hothouse” system of fcreing is rightly denounced, for it be- gets a host of evils for the days of maturity however much it may tend to beautify young stock. Natural methods and natural food are the se- cret of success. The former provides abundance of outdoor exercise, with its fresh air and sunlight adjuncts, which go so far in the production of healthy constitutions; the latter means good, heavy oats, bran, car- rots and sweet, well-made fodders. rather than condimental foods and forcing stuffs. Commence feeding the sucking foals on crushed oats, bran, etc., and they will stand wean- ing without loss of flesh and progress upon good rations until they mature into large, sound, profitable horses. Brome Grass Pasture.—At the ex- perimental farm at Indian Head, Can- ada, an interesting experiment is being made in the seeding down of prairie land with brome grass for pasture. Brome hay was a heavy crop on the farm this year, some of it going 5% tons to the acre, with an average crop of about 2% tons. An interesting fact came to light in connection with the feeding of Brome grass and hay to the 18 work horses. The horses are weigh- ed every month and when they had been feeding two weeks on Brome grass and hay it was found that an average gain of 40 Ibs. a head had been made over the previous: weighing. There was no change in the gtain ra- tion and no difference in the amount of work performed. Flax Eurn.—The Agricultural Insti- tute of Gembloux, Belgium, has made exhaustive research into the nature of the malady known as “flax burn,” and has learned that this disease arises from a “microscopic fungous growth ing ir the cells cf the f thod of dicect treatment, so hu we raneous. The use of different mant has given no satisfactory result. The | only remedy is to destroy “the dis- ased plants so that the germs will not spread; to abandon the culture of flax on the infected soil at least seven or wigas <3 also to avoid planting turnips in the soil abandoned, as the; are thought to harbor the parasite.” rs; Spelts Wheat.—At the experiment station in North Dakota spelts wheat is being tested. President Worst says i} it’s raised with great success on the Missouri slope, yields greater than oats, stands drouth better and is adapt- ed to the climate of both North and South Dakota. If only pure milk were sold in Lon- ; don it is estimated that from 20,000 tc ; 30,000 more cows wonld be wanted to neep up the supply. s.” There oi! | Mrs. Pinkham’s Medicine Made a New Woman of Mrs. Kuhn.

Writes us, May 31, 1899: “I feel it my duty to write and let you know what your medicine, ‘5 Drops,’ has done for me. I have had rheumatism about eighteen years, but was able to be up most of the time until a year ago last May, when I was taken down and not able to move about. About six weeks ago I saw your advertisement and wrote for a sample bottle. After tak- ing a few doses it did me so much good that I ordered some more for myself and friends, and in every case it has done wonders and given perfect satisfaction. “Dr, Woodliff, my family physician, who has had rheumatism for fifteen years, is taking the ‘5 Drops,’ and says it is the most efficient rheumatic med- icine he has ever uséd.” “5 Drops” is the most powerful spe- i cific known.
