Snow Plagues
Sheep Raiser
Snow often brings trouble to
the sheep raiser, especially if his
ewes do not have the very best
hay plus some grain. This trouble
is called pregnancy sickness,
Ketoais, twin lamb trouble and
various other names, but it
amounts to the sam? thing espec
ially if the sheep dies. ?
Your ewes should be feed bet
ter when there is snow on the
ground, especially if the hay is
not too good add just a little more
grain. Grain made rich with
"blackstrap" or feed molasses
seems to be especially good for
ewes heavy with lamb. Feed
your ewes well now, and they
will pay you back with good
strong lambs.
