our system of mixed farming and live
stock production. Thla gives the rais
ing of sheep a new appeal In older
fanning ureas.
The muln factor In determining the
cost of other animal products la the
value of grain and mill feeds; pastur
age and roughage are Important, but
both beef and pork require a consider
able use of concentrated feeds. The
production of Iambs and mutton re
quire a very much smaller proportion
of fat and therefore a smaller use of
grain than Is required In these other
meat animals. Sheep are able to get
a good portion of their feed from
rough, permanent grass pasture and at
the aame time keep It clean of weeds.
This Increases rather than depresses
the cattle-carrying capacity of the pas
tore. As sheep require comparative
ly little of the owner's labor, the labor
cost per dollar's worth of wobl or
lambs Is lower than In any other farm
animal product. While the labor re
quired In raising sheep Is not heavy
It is continuous and somewhat differ
ent from that required in the csre of
other stock.
Many of the ohstscles thst have
hindered the progress of sheep rais
ing in Intensive farming districts have
been or are being overcome. The com
petition given sheep growing on farms
by the production of sheep on lower
priced range land Is being removed.
A second but only temporary obstacle
to a quick Increase In sheep produc
tion lies In the fact that comparative
ly few farmers are as well quulificd
to care for sheep as for other classes
of stock. The needs and huhlts of
sheep differ from those of horses, and
swine, but present no problems thst
will not be met by Interested study
and observations supported by satis
factory returns.

Germany's Oldest Railroad.
The oldest railroad to Germany Is
one of the shortest In the world. The
Lodfrlf railway, doooeetlng the cities
of Furth and Nurenburg, is Josl three
und three -quarters miles long, and has
never been extended. It was conceived
by Johannes Bcharrefi wealthy hop
merchant, tb Philadelphia Inquirer
teils us. The plan was first puMishe.,
in 1V!J, ami M King Ludwtg iavond
IU construction it was named after
him. There are about iM employees.
The railroad carries about 4,U0U.0O0
passengers a year.
Good teams mean more to the up-to-date
farmer than Is generally be
lieved. Without Rood teams It Is a
very difficult matter to do good farm
ing. But at present prices farmers
may hesitate to buy heavy draft horses
and mules, notwithstanding the fact
that they are after all economical.
It would he a good plan to get some
heavy mares und raise colts for sale
ir to take the place of lighter animals
and old teams on the farm.

The sow should have no feed what

must have water at frequent Inter
