Cow’s Milk for Lambs. 
H OW much milk should a young lamb 
have? I mean those that we are 
compelled to raise by hand. Is cow’s 
milk richer or poorer than that of the 
sheep? Has it been found out how much 
milk a lamb is supposed to get from a 
good ewe at one time? I have found 
that cow’s milk that has once been very 
hot is very apt to kill a lamb. E. K. S. 
Linden, Va. 
In feeding young lambs I believe cow’s 
milk too rich at first. We always dilute 
it, using one-half warm water and a very 
little molasses. The molasses being lax¬ 
ative care must be taken in its use. A 
young lamb must not have scalded milk. 
We have much better success when we 
can get a few first feedings down from 
some sheep. Feed not more than two 
tablespoonfuls at a time at first, but 
often. 
A lamb gets very little at a time from 
its mother. Little lambs must be fed 
during the night if they cry for it. After 
two weeks feed more, and less often. We 
feed about six times during the 24 hours. 
Sometimes lambs can be forced along by 
giving them milk from a bottle when the 
mother does not seem to have enough. 
Last Winter I had five at one time 
that I fed. I used to wear a short over¬ 
coat with pockets on either side and I 
would take out three bottles of warm 
milk and water and sometimes a little 
molasses in it. It was great fun to see 
those lambs look into my pockets for the 
bottles of milk. The bottles were small 
not containing more than one-half pint. 
These lambs I fed three or four times a 
day, sometimes not all of them would 
nurse. I believe conditions being as they 
should one would have very few lambs 
to feed. A sheep properly nourished be¬ 
fore the lamb is born should be able to 
feed the lamb herself. 0. F. 
Cow Testing in Ohio. 
W HEN we used to stand up in a row 
at school and spell, the prettiest 
girl was frequently found at the 
foot of the class. It has been found true 
in the Salem, O., Cow Testing Associa¬ 
tion that the cow considered by her own¬ 
er the most likely has been sent to “the 
foot.” The Babcock scales are void of 
sentiment when it comes to deciding be¬ 
tween beauty and production. One man 
in this association had six young cows, 
three of which he wished to sell. A buy¬ 
er came and was told to pick those he 
wished. There was no argument after 
the selection; he had picked the ones the 
owner was most willing to part with. 
Another had owned and milked a cow for 
seven years and had decided to part with 
her if he could get the price of $65 for 
her. No buyer presented himself who 
was willing to risk it. He kept her and 
put her on test. At the end of the year 
she showed a net profit of $78.79. He 
has changed his mind about parting with 
her. One man was sorry he had gone 
into the association. His cows were poor 
and he would rather not have known it. 
He was attached to them and did not 
wish to part with them. The Salem As¬ 
sociation is justly proud of their record 
and so far as they are second only to 
the Winona Association in the point of 
production in the United States. This 
was the second association organized in 
Ohio. 
The why of cow-testing associations is 
just plain common sense, Columbiana 
County, O., people declare, and herewith 
is a table that shows why the farmers’ 
wives can afford to feed William Carey, 
the tester, on chicken, for even the low¬ 
est cow in the association shows a profit:
