Sheep Raising.

my pilgrimage in Vermont, my expert
ence in the business may throw some
light upon the subject in regard to the best
way of managing flock of sheepto make
them profitable TO the owner | have
for the last twenty years kept flock aV-
eragjng about 400; about half breeding
ewes, the others young eve sheep, and
stock bucks, of the Spanish merino breed
% sheep. They are easily found not
being Of rowing propensity, II WEEK
4 kept. When | commenced the business,
the best sheep we're procured that could
be found, yet they did not give but little
over three pounds per head OF clean
washed wool The last time | wa5hsd my
flock, two years since, they averaged
over six pounds per head Of better wool
dian the first starting Of the flock. My
experience has fully satisfied me, that
The best breeds of sheep as well as Of all
other animals, are the cheapest kept, and
afford &raer profits than the poor or or
binary ones. The outlay at The begin
ming is greater; but the profits are much
larger in proportion to the cost and eX-
pense Of keeping. Also that all animals
should be well kept, both summer and
winter, to be the most profitable. II
sheep are suffered to get poor by short
keeping in winter, their wool will be OF
an inferior quality, TO those well kept, for
manufacturing purposes. The fiber be
comes tender, and much OF it flies away
in the process Of working il into cloth,
and the fabric is not so durable. In or

Mr.. \. w. Granger, Of Randolph,
writes as follows upon the same subject;
1t is nov clear to observing minds,
that HE Wet can raise beef at cost
merely nominal when compared 10 US
and the cost of transportation, owing to
the competition of roads, is a mere moth
ing. But the broad and fertile vallics,
and expansive prairies of the West new
er can produce the sweet feed, and per-
feet paslurage of New England. Our
rugged mountains and cool climate, our
stirring, energetic, and educated citizens,
together with the Yankee desire to ex-
cell, all will combine to render New
England the great sheep center of the
word Is it not policy then for US to
raise cattle enough to supply ourselves,
and devote our attention to something
that will pay? The first questions that
arise are, What sheep shall | buy?-
Shall they be long wooded, or short WOO.
ed? Stall they have large bodies or
small bodies? Shall they be Merinos,
Cotswolds, Leicesters, Southdowns, or
whatever ! happen to find? Shall [ pay
81, 80 per head, or shall pay $25,00 /?
Oh dear! shall never get the right
ones. Had | better buy at all an
swer, yes, YOU had better buy, and unless
you live near a market where it is an OBJ
jet ts raise early lambs, you had better
buy small sheep, and consequently Meri-
nos. Secure those with a long staple
but do not sacrifice thickness to length.
But Why select small sheep? inquiries
one. Because wool, not mutton, is the
FIRST and grand object to look after: and
it is fact that has never been disputed
that small sheep shear more according TO
their size than large ones, Il is also
I'm :isputed that a sheep eats such per
cent of its live weight, and consequently
we get more wool from the same amount
Of keeping and care. I have sheep in
my 0ock, five Of which will consume as
much as a cow, and | have others that it
would take fifteen Of them to consume
the same amount. Now to do equally
well with the larger ones, they should
shear only about a half or a thid as
much, but they shear more pounds from
each sheep, thereby shearing three times
as much wool rs The large ones. The
wool is worth twenty-five per cent more,
and they raise three times as many lambs.
These, with dociIily, ease of confning aud
handling, are on a few of the desirable
points of small sheep.
Shall keep blood sheep? Keep the
best. Il costs no more to keep a sheep
worth 500 than it does one worth $50
and generally not so much; and her
lamb is more likely to be worth the same
than is the other one s., and it costs no
more time, trouble, or provisions to raise
it,
| know your correspondents say it
does not pay for a small farmer to keep
the best, but if it pays for a large one,
Why not in the same ratio for small ones ?
If it costs no more to keep sheep that
will shear six, seven, and eight pounds Of
wool than it does to keep one that will
shear only two and a half pounds and
the wool OF the first is worth twenty
cents in a pound more, with a lamb worth
anywhere from five 10 a hundred dollars,

ENRON the constantly increasing demand for
n this beautiful instrument, and the numer-
GUS testimonials we are almost daily receiving
of its superiority, and from the fact that during
the past few years it has been invariably award
ed the first prize at all the principal fairs, we are
confident that no musical instrument in the
country is meeting with such universal favor.
Our Patent Harmonic attachment is the most
valuable Improvement ever made on the Melo-
