Let us get at it in good season and dip or treat the cat tle regularly every last one, of them until all the ticks are gone.' When the pastures are once cleanthey are easily kept clean; ; . ; ', p This is the month to prepare for late spring grazing if it was not done last fall. Oats, oats and Canada field peas, rape and other crops sown in February, and early March will-iurn-, ish grazing in April and May. If good grazing is expected only good soil should be used, and in no case is it worth while to sow rape on any but. very rich, good land. - " While most pasture plants for spring and summer do best. Jn the South when sown in the fall, there are a few exceptions, and then many failed to sow last fall. For instance, there is probably qply one better summer pasture plant for the South than lespedeza. It is a great plant for the South because, it is a legume and wilPmake some growth on poor soils. If you have made no other provision for summer pastures, or in any case, sow. some, lespedeza the latter part Of this-month or in March. The new, born lamb, calf and colt and the litter of pigs as soon as they come have a value beyond that gen erally recognized. They not only rep resent a speculative orNfuture value, but they actually represent the keep of the sire and dam and the risks and investment in these animals from six to twelve months. If these facts were -kept in mind more care would be taken to properly provide for the care of the new-born on our Southern farms. It will pay to give, special and intelligent attention for the saving-of even one pig will pay for all the; at tention a sow and litter require. See that all young are born in suitable, comfortable, clean quarters. ix v:V:-V;: The . females . that are to produce young this spring need careful . at tention and feeding. Exerciser which is regular, but. not violent, and. f eed ing. "that is moderately liberal and with abundant supplies of protein are the two important points. The brood sow needs something more than corn, the brood, mare more than corn and fodder, and ;the cow more than the stalk fields or cottonseed hulls and meal," if they are to bring, forth strong, healthy young and produce an -abundant . milk,, supply to ,hourkh them.' . .It is .important .that the horses and mules that have been idle during the wint6r.be given some preparation for spring work before being rushed into hard work and full feed. At least, two weeks should be . taken to get such work stock on full feed and gradually hardened to do a full day's work. The collars should also be broad, smooth, hard arid clean. The South has much to answer for in the poor collars it compels its horses and mules to do its work with: , . (15) 123 PURE BRED LIVESTOCK . : BERKSHIRES SEEWY N FARMS EDGAR D. MOORE.
