IT'S HIS DESSERT NOW: Two weeks ago "Puddle," this five-weeks old pet of Priscilla Osler, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harold S. Osler of Glazier Rd., was a "bottle baby." Now he has to eat that nasty old grass along with the rest of his family, but he still enjoys tipping the bottle occasionally, especially when the bottle is held by his mistress. The News photographer caught this picture during the one moment when Puddle's tail was not revolving like a windmill.

JUST A SPECIMEN: Many strange and wonderful things happened on the Darwin Downer farm, near Chelsea, last week and the view above is just a sample - just a smidgin, as the boys say - of what went on. Mr. Downer is shown holding one set of the six sets of lamb triplets which were born during the tremendous re-storking of his sheep herd. Six sets of lamb triplets are a lot of potential chops, but they only constituted only the first paragraph of the story. There were also 102 sets of twins. Mrs. Dionne, the thing seems to be catching.

The demonstration held Monday at the George Henning farm in Salem township, under the direction of Delmar LaVoi, state college extension specialist, consisted of internal and external treatment as shown here. Mr. Henning is forcing blue vitrol into the sheep's mouth at the top, and below a neighbor holds the animal's mouth closed while it is being dunked.
