The superb flock of Cotswold breeding stock on this farm is perhaps the equal of any in the United States, and is in very fine condition. The fine show-ring ewe, which was sought to be ruled out of the fairs on the charge of being a non-breeder, has dropped three fine lambs this spring. Care of Sheep. Editors Indiana Farmer: * The most important time is at hand for the care of the sheep of the farm. Success «r failure in saving lambs determines the profits or losses to a breeding flock, hence the great importance which devolves upon the flock master to use every exertion that not a single life shall be lost, either of the ewe or offspring. It is presumed that the flock is in ordinary breeding condition at this time of year and the ewes are ready to assutae their duties of maternity, many of them for the first time. As this fact is not always the case, and as some farmers breed their ewes late in the season, it may not be amiss to here refer to the wintt r care of the flock. The ewes should be kept separate from all other sheep, especially rams and wethers. Losses are of frequent occurrence when a mixed flock is allowed to run together. Ewes are naturally timid, and after a few hard knocks from a ram or strong wether are not so apt to come forward to the trough for feed, and hence are crowded away and do not get their full share of grain at a time wheu their condition is such that they requite more good food than at any other time of year. The ram is more likely to injure the ewes however than are wethers, and under no circumstances should he be allowed to run with them after they are all supposed to be with lamb. The ewes should have the run of a good blue-grass pasture during the day time and be carefully stabled at night, when a ration of grain may be fed to them in a trough of ample length for double the number to stand to that are being fed. This extra space is to keep them from crowding and pushing each other. If an open shed is in the pasture, all the better, for lt will be a protection during rain storms and the sheep can remain within the inclosure without daily ehanging to and from the stable. Bright early cut clover or timothy hay is best for sheep, that which has been allowed to ripen before being harvested is of little value for this kind of stock. It net only has too much woody fiber and is not so nutritious, but the stalk is coarse and harsh to the mouth, and they will not eat it so eagerly as if it was fine and soft. Corn fodder makes good feed for sheep to pick at for roughness, but it takes so large a quantity in bulk to supply them that the waste is inconvenient to dispose of. The best way to feed corn fodder is to run it through a cutting box and then throw the cut stuff into large troughs, or mangers, and when the sheep have picked it over thoroughly,the coarse stalks are in condition to make good manure. One of the best kinds of feed for sheep is to cut hay or sheaf oats, or both, \% to one inch long and mix corn and oats grouud with it and feed after dampening just the least bit. This answers the purpose of grain and roughness both, and is a feed that sheep or other stock will not get tired of unless over-fed. Shelled corn should not be fed to ewes with lamb. This is especially true if they_have no grass to run to every day or are not fed regularly.oh turnips.' Corn Iwats the blood an^hi..,i-iresystem getso__k>f condition, hence with flocks'fed in this way, abortions are occurring, and even though the lambs come to maturity, they are often weak and die after lingering for some time. Another indication is that sheep fed on corn during winter and kept on other dry feed, frequently lose their wool in patches over the body. This is caused by the feverish condition of the system. Threshed oats mixed with bran is one of the best ways to feed sheep grain. The ewes should be taken from the flock,if, a large one, as they approach lambing time,and only a few kept together. If the weather is very cold, a good warm shed or stable should be provided and then keep a careful watch for lamba. Old shepherds say, and my experience agrees with theirs, that lambs are seldom drop ped between 11 o'clock p. m. and 4 o'clock a. m., hence even with a good sized flock, the shepherd can always get a few hours of undisturbed rest. When newly born lambs begin to struggle about and try to get some milk, they should be put with the ewe and care be taken that they get a good nursing. Plenty of warm milk at this time is the life of the lamb. The heavy fleece of wool on all sheep at this time of year makes it difficult for the lamb to find the teat; this is especially so with the coarse wooled sheep, and I have seen strong lambs fail to get any milk from the fact that the udder was completely hidden with long wool. If the ewe refuses to claim the lamb, as is sometimes the case with young ewes, have a small pen arranged in which the ewe can stand or lie iu comfortably, but unable to turn r » undL Keep the ewe and lamb together for a day or two, when it will be found she will be very fond of it. If the lamb is chilled when found, take it in a dry blanket and put near a warm stove whero it can get thoroughly warmed through. The heat will give it strength, but it should have some milk, and if the ewe is not near at hand, some sugar put in fresh warm cow's milk makes agood substitute. After the lamb gains strength it may be put with the ewe, but right here is the time she will be most apt to refuse to own it. "■ If the sheep are in the pasture during the day when lambs are being dropped, they should be carefully watched, asa raw wind will soon chill the wet weak things when it would not be uncomfortable to a strong, vigorous man. There are many littlo circumstances which will occur that cannot be anticipated in an article like this, but a kind heart and clear head will be equal to most emergencies. The greatest danger is a want of care at the proper time, therefore I must impress you to be always looking for lambs, and to never leave them when found until they have been fed and cared for. H. C. M. Ensilaged Live Stock Food. From an address of Mr. Mills at the late Ensilage Congress, N. J.: If I should build another receptacle for my fodder I should build it of wood, entirely above ground. My system is uni que and different from that of Mr.Goffart. I depend entirely upou a sufficient, uniform, and continuous pressure with no let iip from the time it is put on until the fodder is taken out for use. Tlie principle of ensilage is nothing more nor :i_oss than the preservation of green fodd; r from the action of the oxygen of the.^tmospher<v I cut it up no shorter thanUs: necessarj to have it pack well in theijnlidy I,allow '|^j tramping. If you fi^V^he sutevl_U*.K«fo,t_k-the "'jjuic<? will exttcie; nnd air will 'take its place iu the cellular tissue, the very thing to be avoided.; / Q. I would like to ask how you get the exact pressure, per square foot. Mr. Mills.—My silos are twelve feet wide and forty feet in length, I have covers made in sections four feet wide. Then 1 place upon them boxes filled with gravel and I calculato the pressure^at about 300 pounds to the square foot. Last summer my pasturage ran short and being out of ensilage, I cut oats when in blossom from five acres and put that in the silo, and subjected it to pressure. It sustained my milch cows (about 80 in number) for a space of six weeks. I had no trouble except from contact witli the stone wall. lAwascutas long as I could conveniently do so with a Cycle cutter. In regard to planting and the yield per acre, gentlemen have stated that they had heard of fifty aud seventy tons per acre being produced, but that th'ey were unable to raise that amount. Now I have raised it. I kept last year 120 head of horned cattle and twelve horses, from Oct. 15 of May 15 upon the product <_ f twelve acres, without any hay or straw. I fed three quarts of grain per day. I gave about sixty pounds of ensilage per day, and it waa a great mistake, I am now feeding but thirty, and two or three quarts of grain per day. I planted my corn in hedges about thirty-two inches apart, and about six inches wide, planting forty or fifty kernels to the running foot, and I got a wonderful growth. My land is not rich. It has been abused for the last hundred, years. Q. I only used the manure from the cattle, and blood and bone phosphates mixed with the corn when planted. I used eight bushels to the acre, audi had a growth of corn six td ten feet high, and not a stalk larger than my thumb. When it gets about three feet high it begins to work together and it is very difficult to go through it. I use a species of Southern corn, getting all my seed from one section. It wa_| not ready for harvesting until the latter part of September. A few ears which had developed upon stalks ou the outer edge of this field I had boiled and found the corn sweeter than any sweet corn I have ever tasted. I tried to cut it with a reaper, but it was too heavy, and I had to use a mower. I oould take in an acre nearly as quick as I could take in.an acre of hay. The cost was a little over seventy cents per ton, in £he pit. 1 would rather have a ton of it than a ton of the best hay, and I know what I am talkingabout. I ascertained the weight of a cubic"!oot at the time of using it and with that asthe unit of my calculation I had about 700 tons from the 12 acres. Q. Did you measure the ground? Mr. Mills. I did not measure the land, but I made a very close estimate of it. Q. I would ask whether the cornstalks, as they stood in the field, were green from top tobottom, or partially yellow. Mr. Mills. The tops were green and handsome; near the ground somewhat faded. This department Is edited by Dr. J ohm N. N_vi_j, Veterinary Surgeon, author of Navin _ ___pl-___tor? Stock Doctor.

Sulphate of iron, one teaspoonful, five or six successive evenings. Calomel, ton mens, doses once a week, or worm wood will remove then. Gov. Price. You spoke of blood and bone phosphates. I would like to know how much yon used on the twelve acres. Mr. Mills. Four hundred pounds to the acre. Dr. Ormiston. You Baid you wonld not build another silo or receptacle except on thesurface. Will you explain how you would build? <_- /; Mr. Mills. I would' build * nuildlng something like-ati ordinary ice hiittse, be- ingcareful to have a good strong frame cased on the inside with hemlock boards. Then I would put the fodder in; I would not tramp it, and when I got it full I would place my covers upon it, having the covers uniformly weighted, so as to get a uniform pressure all round. I would have the pressure about 300 lbs. to each square foot. i. would have each receptacle filled and weighted on the same day. I would not cut my fodder short. I believe in keeping the cellular tissues as intact as possible, with all their juices. I cut different lengths last season, from three- quarteis to two inches, and in future shall cut longer. I would not use rye at all on account of the eagot.*I prefer oats to corn, but give me the perennial grasses above them all. When I get my farm rich enough, I propose to raise nothing but the perennial grasses. I cut my cornjaftertasselling, when it is full of saccharine matter. I use the Southern horse tooth corn, getting my see d from one section, from one particular State. I plant about eight bushels to the acre, and I plant by hand. Q. What sort of cultivation did you give it? Mr. Mills. It did not get any, except to go through with a subsoil plow to break t he ground up and let the air in. Q. How many acres did you plant this last year in corn? Mr. Mills. Twenty-five acres. Q. And how many tons to the acre? Mr. Mills. There were about 350 tons. This last year I only had one-fourth a crop. ,1 had twice that from twelve acres the year before. Mr. Potter.*—I built a silo on a side hill. The portion next to the hill was built of stone nine or ten inches thick and filled in with cement and then plastered. A brick wall was raised up so that one-third of it was above the ground. I tried it one year -without cementing on the inside, and found that the upper portion of ensilage was very poor. As soon as we got below the line of the ground it was good. Then I cemented it on the inside as well as on the outside, but on opening result, although not quite it a few weeks ago, I found the same so bad. I had the same 'm experience with another silo. I believe that uniform temperature has a good deal to do with keeping ensilage in good condition. My silos are pretty deep. I fiad that the finer the ensilage is cut the better it keeps, and you get a more perfect seclusion from the air. I cover mine with from six to ten inches of earth. If the mass settles, the earth will follow it down uniformly and keep it compact. I never put any boards over the ensilage until this year, and I did not find any advantage in it. In some cases the boards could not settle and there would be a little vacuum,, whereas the earth went down with it, and we - had no such result. There is no objection to the earth coming in contact with the ensilage, provided it is free from sand and stone. The cattle eat it readily. > I wish to know through the Farmer, what is the matter with my cattle. The hair ccmes off in . mall spots, and the skin has a rough, scaly appearance, the spots* gradually increasing in size. First noticed on it one, now it is on two others. The cattle are in good flesh. J. W. H. Paint with tincture of iodine once daily, if itchy apply tobacco ooze. What shall I do for my hog? He eats. heartily, but vomits up everything immediately after eating. Some times is wor_«_ than at other times. . W. H. B. You have not attended to him in time. Ciit off its" feed for aday or more, then give it half an ounce of pepsin in slop, milk or gruel. Cook all its food, and keep it always hungry until its digestion is corrected, , , . I have a mulethct suddenlybecaine v<b*y lame in left fore shoulder or leg, one week ago, as she was drawing a heavy load on a sled over very rough ground. I think she slipped off a bump and strained her shoulder. She exhibits considerable pain and doesn't seem to get better. S. B. McC. You must let me know the part affected, thinking will not do. Get somebody who knows how, to pathologise, and let me know the result of the examination. I have a horse that has a touch of the heaves. Please tell me something I can do for it? I have used tincture lobelia in his drink, but it has done little if any good. ' F. W. M. Heaves is a diseaso difficult to remedy. Place your ear to his throat and if breathing creates a noise or sound, thero is a thickening of the mucus membrane which is best reduced by repeated blistering. Color his drinking water with indigo. I never saw a horse in tho West affected with heaves. I have a cow that has a lump on the center of her back as large as half of a small hen's egg, flat on the top; around tho edge is set with little jets; sho licks off ihe jets, then the blood flows making a fount, wetting her body all over with blood. It commenced bleeding last October, then it was the size of small pea, and has boen bleeding by spells since. S. F. Take arsenic acid and touch the irritated summit of the abBcess once daily, until the arsenic stands on it unabsorbed, and while there let it be until the dried up part falls off or nearly so, pull it off when nearly off, then if too large, repeat until it is entirely gone. What ails my mare? Never sick till lately. The first I noticed, she began pawing in the stable; thon she would look from one side to tho other, and then she would raise her hind legs and squeal; she was bloated very badly. I gave her strong salt and water right away; it helped her some. Her hair looks well, but she has not eaten anything but a littlo wheat or corn. A. A. B. She had flatulent colic. Now she has a chronic inflammation of her bowels; spill half a drachm of tincture of aconite root on her tongue, and in two hours the same of the tincture of belladona; alternately every two hours until well, if ever. By the time you get the Farmer, your mare may be well or dead. My horse has got the heaves, and I do not know what to do for him. Sub. Your horse has no regular heaves, he may have a chronic affection of the trachea, bronchial tubes, or a thickening of the walls of the air cells of the lungs. If by placing the ear against the throat you hear either a sound ora rattle in breathing, blister the throat severely. Take thorough- wort, hoarhound, flour of sulphur, black antimony, of each, two ounces; grind the herbs, pulverized niter, and ginger, of each, four ounces; mix. Dose one teaspoonful three times daily in ground feed. Blue his drinking water with indigo. There were four deaths from small pox in Fort Wayne during the past week, and several new cases have been reported. & I Thd Marion county court-house costs the people >100,000 a year for interest and maintenance. The stock law of Indiana, so long a dead letter, is being enforced by the citi/sms of Fayette county, whose fences are falling and who have no timber to rebuild them. *-*?r_i -era mf^m-m-aaCMJ
