Lose Or SHEEP BY GRAZING ON BARLEY
Srumns.. —Last week the flock of ewes belonging to Mr.
Gent, of Saxon-street, Wooddittoe, were turned into •
field of barley stubble in which they ate too greedily of the
scattered corn, and in the course of • short time were
dsnrerously affected. As soon ss their condition was
discovered they were driven into pasture ground, and
everything that was deemed necemary was done, but not-
withstanding the efforts of many acquainted with the
management of flocks, between 60 and 70 fine ewes died.
Many more are seriously blown and still in danger, but
we hope that Mr. Gent's 12111 will not be inareseed. —Bury
and Norwich Poet.
