HOW TO FATTEN COCKERELS'/ffTEimON TO SHEEP
teiiklee iNentjr aaid Viriety of Feed,
Fowls Must Havf Ample Supply
of Pure Water and Exercise.
(By T E ORR)
I once forced Wyandotte cockerels to weigh 3^ pounds wben twelre weeks old. Those birds were fed five times a day for two weeks and three times daily from that Ume on.
The first three days I fed nothing but baked pone, composed cf corn- meal, brown middlings, coarse bran, gluten meal and meat meal, witb a lit¬ tle pulverized charcoal added.
This was mixed with sour milk and soda and a little salt, and baked in a not oven the same as we would bakfv ordinary com bread. After being >vell baked, it was crumbed through a fine sieve and fed in granular form.
After three days I fed cracked wheat In the morning, pone at tea o'clock, chicken feed at noon, cracked com at three o'clock and all the poae they would eat at night
After two weeks I fed cracked cora and wheat on alternate mornings, chick feed at noon, cracked cora at thrt-^ o'clock and all the pone they would eat at night.
1 fed cracked com and wheat oa alternate mornings, chick feed at nooa and mush at night until tbey were three months old, and from that time I fed wheat In the morning, cracked com at noon and mash in the evening until yarded for the winter.
Up to this time all the birds should have free range, where they can get plenty of clover and green food and exercise. Of course, it is understood that they munt have good, clean, pure water in abundance always before them.
On Many Farms, Size of Rode Should Be Increased.
AGE OF PIGEONS IMPORTANT
Essential to Have Nothing but Mated
Birds In Loft and Those From
Guaranteed Hardy Stock.
(By C. GRAHAM.)
Pigeons are considered to be at their prime wben three years old, and there are very few pairs that pay for their feed after they are seven years old. They depreciate in value with age.
The females are, as a rule, more delicate than the males in both old and young pigeons, and when buying young birds the purchaser is quite likely to find among them many more males than females. Not only is it essential to have nothing but mated birds in the loft, but they should bo from good hardy stock. Some breeders have been known to force their stock to such an extent that they have lowered Its vitality, others are surrounded by such conditions that it is impossible to produce g(x>d, vigorous birds, while

Sheep husbandry should receive more attention frora the farmers of this country than it does at the pres¬ ent time. On ma; 7 farms there are no sheep at all. Oa many others the size of the flock could and (should be increased and more attention given to this branch of farming with result¬ ing profit to the owner.
The various phases of the sheep in¬ dustry afford numerous channels through which the skill of the pro¬ ducer can display itself. The breed¬ ing of pure-bred stock offers special Inducements to many, while a larger number are content with the pro¬ duction of mutton and wool for mar ket purposes. In the breeding of pure-bred stock the beginner haa a

soaie select their larger squapbs for market and keep the smaller birds, which would sell for a much lower figure as market equabs. let them grow and sell them later as breeders. Oreat care should be taken in the purchase of stock to know that it is from lofts where there is no vermin. It Is next to impossible to get lice out of the loft when the flock once gets tfaor'^ughly Infested, and the introduc¬ tion of one or two dirty pigeons will very soon cause such a condition, riocks wil be found where there is a. tendency toward roup, canker, and other diseases, and these must be avoided if success Is to be secured. Owners of flocks that have been In¬ fested are generally anxious to dis¬ pose of them, and dealers have been known to purchase these goods, and after a little doctoring, offer tbem for sale, being careful to say, "Tbey are mated birds and in the prime of con¬ dition as far as age. weight, etc., are concerned." tt is such experiences aa these that cause many to have ill luck from the beginning; In fa.:t, they failed before they had really begun.

number of valuable breeds from which he can make a selection. It Is not bo much the breed selected that will lead to success as it is the care and man¬ agement. It must be noted, however, that certain breeds have a wider range of adaptability and are more popular than others. The number of pure-bred flocks Is Increasing every year and the demand for good breed¬ ing stock is more tban keeping pace with the increase. Pure-bred stock has a number of advantages over grades. The natural or inherent ad¬ vantages of pure-bred stock arise from- the fact tbat there has been a concerted effort In the development of the better breeds to establish, inten¬ sify, and perpetuate their superior qualities by using only the best ani¬ mals for breeding purposes. There have been some exceptions to this, some inferior animals have been en¬ tered, but the formation of a breed has In general beea based upon su¬ periority in some form. Nevertheless, owing to the re-appearance of inferior individuals, not all purebred sheep are suitable to retain in the flock.
A breeder of pure-bred sheep can develop * reputation -that never could be acquired with grades. The sales of pedigree breeding stock extend over a much wider range of territory than those of market stock. The show ring also spreads abroad the fame ot the breeder of pure bred stock. Larg¬ er prices are obtained for pure-bred ewes and rams when sold for breeding parposes, although It costs little moro to produce them after the flock is once established. There is also nrore stability in their values than in those ef market stock.
With a commercial flock there aro several phases that are worthy of con¬ sideration. Early spring lambs is nne of the most Important, while late spring or early fall lambs should re¬ ceive due consideration. The produc- tioa of winter or so-called "hothouse"
