when on feed they put on again of 3 lbs. a day, a very good gain, everything coneidered. They sold at $4.65, a gain over the buying price of $1.35, "I feed a ration of ground corn, cottonseed meal and alfalfa," said Mr. McPherson. "I fed them about four lbs.

each ax day, and they seemed to put on fat very fast from the very start. I am inclined to believe that cows of the right kind are more profitable than steers, I think I made a mistake, however, when I bought these that I did not invest in a little better grade. In recent years there seems to have sprung up a great demand for cows and heifers. They seem to dj about the best sellers on the yards. Often when good steers are slow sell ers, cows and heifers of the good class will sell readily, To invest in' high SEE OUR WINDOW Experience of Our Stockmen Remy Ronsee of St.

Marys, one of the Ronsee brothers who have been feeding sheep quite extensively this winter, was in Monday with several carloads of lambs and yearlings, of the shortfed class. Early last fall these brothers bought 8,500 lambs which they fed out and marketed along in the months of January and February- Then they bought another bunch of 5, 000 lambs which they put right on feed. It was the second shipment of these lambs that Mr. Ronsee brought in yesterday. They have bought 9 carloads of these back.

"While these lambs did not sell up with the first feeding," said Mr. Ron-see, "they sold well considering the time they were on feed. They had been fed but a few weeks, but in that time made good gains and are doing well. The winter all the way through has been very favorable to the sheep feeders We have not had very much stormy or bad weather to hurt us in feeding or give the sheep any backsets, And the market has been on a fairly steady basis, as much so or more, perhaps, than some other years.

them Two years ago feeding lambs cost the people a very high price, but corn was cheaper than it has been this winter. However, there are no complaints made among sheep feeders this spring. They havebeen feeding carefully, and marketing their sheep in small lots, and will come out ahead all around- In places where the corn was bought as it was fed, instead of in the early part of the winter when it was a little cheaper, feeders will not make so much.
