The article warns thousands of pregnant ewes die each winter and spring from a liver linked disease. It notes pale or rotten livers, constipation, weakness, and paralysis as signs. Prevention hinges on proper feeding, exercise, and laxative use. It recommends walking ewes daily, feeding clover or alfalfa hay, and supplying roots or sound corn silage, with Glauber salt as a medicinal aid when needed.
Farmers and animal husbandmen are urged to properly feed gilts during winter to support growth and future offspring. Emphasizes comfortable shelter and straw beds, protein-rich feeds, and cautious use of cottonseed meal. Recommends skimmed milk, tankage, meat meal, shorts, ground oats, bran, and cottonseed meal in balance.
The guidance notes that, based on experiments, one part tankage or meat meal to nine parts grain is generally recommended. This recommendation emphasizes a balanced protein to energy mix for feed formulations.
Lamb feeding has proven profitable over recent years and serves as a sound method to market feed at a profit. Western range lambs are safer to feed than farm raised natives, which often suffer stomach worms. Worm-infested lambs gain poorly in feed lots and incur losses. Markets prefer fat lambs under 90 pounds, so feeder lambs should weigh no more than 70 pounds when started in the feed lot.
Hogs may cause damage by gnawing trunks or destroying roots if allowed in an orchard. When kept there they should be watched closely and removed if injury begins. If necessary, protect tree trunks with sturdy enclosures to deter hog activity.
