Weil first, last and always, all Tror Launi dries are goed ones and now a little history about Troy. Troy, N. Y. was 1 the home of the laundry industry— the starting point ai it were. The first 1 detachable collar was made in Troy about 1848 by a lady who saw that collars being made separate from the . shirts (it was the custom those days to have all collars and cuffs attaohed to ) the shirts) would save a great deal of labor. She called in some of the I neighbors ana it wasn't long before ail Troy was wearing the detachable I collars, snd it wasn't long before a collar and cuff factory was started I and. of course, the collars and cuffs had to be laundered and naturally the i laundry followed, and spread over the country and today ranks fourth in the ' industries of tne U. S. A., that is in . the number of employ es. The largest independent laundry machinery com- « pany is named Troy, and is the original and is not in the trust.

Home Course > In Live Stock • Farming ! XV.— Sheep Raising. ! By C. V. GREGORY, \ Author of "Home Course In Modern j Agriculture," "Making Money on •; the faun." Etc. j 1 Copyright. 1006. by American Press 1 Association. , UNDER faTorable conditions the ' sheep Is one of the most profitable kinds of live stock 1 that can be raised. The first ' : essential to success In this business is 1 1 a liking for It. The second is a proper 1 location. Sheep kept on low pastures ' become wormy or affected with foot I rot and are seldom profitable. Sheep are able to use large amounts of rough feed that would otherwise go ' to waste, making economical gains on - feed that the other animals of the j farm will not touch. They are espe- ! cially good for cleaning up weedy , -land. j There la no better method of ridding t a weed infested field of the crop which t renders it worthless for agricultural • purposes thau to turn It over to the " tender mercies of a flock of sheep. It i matters little what species of weed hot ' obtained the supremacy; it is doomed g to extinction, el The Mutton Type. For producing high class mutton 8 Shropsbircs and Southdowns are large- ' ly used. They are the moat perfect representatives of the mutton type, but are sometimes criticised because of their small sire and consequent lack of capacity for rough feed. Where there Is a large amount of roughage to got away with some one of the large breeds, such as Cotswold or Ox-

rto. xxvm.— qood Shropshire sheep.

■ ford, will probably be more satlsfacF tory. On the ranges of the west the I hardy Merinos are best adapted to the ' conditions. " In getting n start in the sheep busi- ' | ness, especially If you have never ; E raised sheep, it is best to buy three or I four ewes of the desired breed. In seI leering ewes where mutton Is to be the I chief consideration considerable attenI tion should be paid to the mutton I type. I This is much the same as the meat ^ | type in other animals. They should I be broad, deep and fairly long, with fc good spring of rib and broad, well covI ered back and loin. The romp shonid i be long and the hind legs well meated I both inside and out. as this, together E with the back and loin, is the most I valuable part of the sheep. The qua!1 lty should be good, as shown in fine 1 head and bone. The constitution £ should be good, as shown by depth of i chest, large nostrils and width between i the fore legs. | Good quality of wool Is shown by n £ close, even crimp. The wool should be j 1 dense on all parts of the body. It should I 1 not be harsh, and the fiber should be I * strong aod not easily broken. There i should be no dead hairs In the wool. S Sheep are ioften trimmed so as to ap- « pear mucj wider and blockler than i they real# are. The only way to tell the real form of a trimmed sheep is j| by touch: In going over a sheep with S the hands do not dig into the wool _ with the fingers, thus tearing it apart onA loce/tnino* the mine of the fleece. value of

In buying ewes b» to examine their months carefully Ewes that are "down in the mouth"that is. that are so old that their teetl are worn down to the gums— are a los lng proposition. Handling Breeding 8hecp. When ewes are bought of a l reede they will usually be. bred. In raisin; lambs for market on any conslderabli scale ewes bought on the general mar ket are a good deal cheaper, and verj good results can be obtained If matei to a good, pure bred ram. The sam' points of form spoken of In connectioi with the ewe should be looked afte In selecting the ram. In addition, hi should 6how masculinity in a stronj head, thick neck and large chest. HI legs should be strong, especially in th pasterns, and he should not be ovet fat The ram should be from a strai: of profitable producers. Where a ram lamb Is used for service fifteen or twenty ewes are as many as he can well handle. It is , better and more profitable to use a more mature sire. A yearling can serve thirty to forty ewes and an old ram sixty when they are left to run with the flock all the time. A better I plan is to turn the ram in with the ewes for a short time, only at morning and night keeping him in a pen by himself the rest of the time. In this way the ram can serve double the number of ewes. It is a good plan to smear the ram's breast with paint before turning him out with the ewes. Then after he is taken out a brief glance will show Just which ewea have been bred. These can be marked w1tb; ear tags or paint and the date of serv-

kept in a pen' by themselves for a few days until the period of beat Is over. ' Twenty weeks U the usual time of gestation In ewes. On the general farm the preferable time to have the lambs come Is just «bjjjjj,the time tbs grass Is Btarting weflT If you are ta the pure bred business It will pay to the lambs come a little earlier than this, as the larger lambs bring better prices as breeders' in the falL In order to have the ewes come In heat as nearly the same time as possible a plan known as "flushing" is often used. consists Id taking them from a rather poor pasture and turning them ^ into a luxuriant growth of rape or other good forage. A little grain, one-half pound a day per head, should also be given. Oats and bran, J with a little oilmeal added, make one of the best rations for the ram during the breeding season. He should be given all be will clean up when to 1 heavy service. Winter Cars. , ' I During the winter the ewes should be fed on a ration of oats and bran, with perhaps a little corn added. 1 Clover hay is one of the beat f inns of roughage. A little allege will add suc- ' cuience to the ration, but It should not be fed In very large quantities. Roots are also good for this purpose. Exercise Is essential. A winter r«*- ; ture over which the ewea can run ' will provide this, but they should not I be made to depend od this pasture for ' any considerable portion of their feed. 1 Sheep can stand a great deal of cold if their fleece does not become wet. A I dry. well bedded shed, open on the south, is the beet sort of winter protection. 1 Just before lambing the wool on the flanks and udders should be clipped. A t little oilmeal should be added to the ration for two or three weeks prior I to lambing. Many of the newly born . lambs will have to be assisted to stand e up and suck, after which they will 3 usually be able to take care of theme selves. In cold weather lambs are liable to wander away from their — mothers and get chilled. The best way to save a chilled lamb Is to put It In warm water for half an hour. It should be thoroughly dried before putting It back In the pen. The lambs should be weaned when they are from three to four months old. This is a critical time in their life, as a check in growth will give parasites a chance to get a start, it Is a good plan to have a fresb pasture of clover I or rape to put the Iambs In at this I time. Rape and clover mixed and I sown with oats make excellent fall pasture after the oats are harvested. Another way of getting good fall feed . for lambs is to sow rape in the corn at <■ 1- miHFiilnn The lambs will last will

eat the rape, weeds and lower leaves of the corn, leaving the field In excellent shape for husking without Injuring the corn to any extent The lambs should be docked and castrated while young. Feeding the Lamb*. The lambs should be taugbt to eat 1 before weahing. and a small ration of grain 6bould be fed from that time on. There Is no better feed for lambs than oats. When the lambs are on clover 1 pasture half the grain ration may be made of corn. As a general rule It Is 1 better to avoid the holiday rush and I market the lambs later In the season with a better finish. As 60on as thpy : are off pasture the grain should be to- - creased until tbey are getting all they • will eat. Corn and clover hay make . 1 one of the best rations for fattening r sheep. Before putting the lambe Into 1 the feed lot a few of the be« ewes should be sorted out to replenish the 1 flock. All unprofitable ewes or those ; ' that are getting old should be shut up 1 and fattened as soon as the lambs ate 5 I weaned. Plenty of salt should be prt>- • Tided for the sheep during the fattening period as well as at all other times - of year. Salt is more necessary to 3 sheep than to any other class of atock. 1 Sheep are not very heavy drinkers, but s tbey do need some water, axtd a supply a should be provided at all times. * il Many feeders make a practice of t buying western lambs on the market buying western minus uu uk

and feeding them through the winter. If good stuff can be bought at right

s prices and feed is not too high there s is considerable profit in this system, a In the eastern states considerable n profit is made on "hothouse lambs." t Do reels are the best breed from which n to produce this class of lambs, as tbey r will breed out of season. The ewes e are bred in May and the lambs fitted g tor the Easter market y The sheep grower Is not compelled is to depend upon mutton alone for his ^ e profit. The wool is also a considerable o item, usually amounting to enough to >- 5t least pay for the feed. Where a s. large number of sheep are to be shear■t ed the work can be done mete rapidly t qritb a machine than by band. There h is also a saving In wool, as the mer-' chine clip# cloeer.
