off-going ewes, also, if well bred will Make out hear./

adeaneavic which can be elaimed on behalf of the
Hampshire Downs ; they are, however, at the 'IMO
time, generally admitted to be of inferior isonstittition
conspimed with some other breeds, In proof of which
only 90 per cent, of iambs are reared on the average
Of these large numbers often dm in the spring months

tented, and finally their wool is of inferior quality. On
the other hand the breeders of Shropshire Downs claim
on their behalf that they run 120 per cent, of lambs,
that they lose but few by disease of any kind, that al-
though they do not snake very heavy weights,
either as lamb' or tags. yet they yield the best
quality of rant, and that they oso be run in large
numbers as stook, and that they will yield • great

ping ewes are jevreeed In firm and constitution by
me, that they she a heavy weight of wool and highly
valuable—worth at the present time 4d. per lb. more
than Hampshire Down wool. Of the value of Shrop-
shire sheep for feeding on root crops It is claimed that
they ha., • qui.t irewle eetiag suite peculiar, th•t
they are eassalingly hardy, and will bear the dirt and
wet whilst feeding net the level loamy soils with but
little iolury. Having stated the various points as

In order to do this fairly the beet breed of Shropsbirm
should be obtained, the sales of which are very numerous
In the midland acuities, oat without going out of the
county coins of the best blood can be obtained, at
the &nation which Is to take place shortly in this
neighbourhood, where stook maybe obtained which has
gained prima at the Rath and Wert of Ragland, the
Hants and Berke, and the Royal sgrioulteral &otitise
meetings recently held: Several of the best breeders of
Hasopeitiro stock have also advertised their rem. for

opportunity of selecting rams of either brood for cross-
ing and stook purposes.—Joagrs BLUNDELL, South.
