Mr., Campbell beat Europe with a cn,
Yet / believe it is a rule among drink,
not in Vermont, bat in countries VII
people do drink, to keep all the Nh
clear, and then let every man mix 10 n
own taste
Seriously, it is better on every Account
in my opinion, to keep up separate 6D.
lies, so that the breeders in all comm,
time will have selection of matpr,Is
to work on separately, or to mix as stai
seem best to then.
There is one point which probably I
need not name, for Vermonters think; mt
| aciH name it for the consideration Of ,bs
younger brethren of the wool-growing fra.
ternity. II is this: There is NATURALLY
enough emulation and rivalry betveso
! different families of sheep, which are bnj
for sale IN the same localities but them
ought not to be, and is not, any actual an.
position of interests between them. F.Gb

and wish to procure some article. do ".
start for some single establishment. Uhe,
we can find that article, but where If W.
taIl 10 SUIT ourselves, we have lost our lv

street where the sellers of the artoee
congregated together in numt ers, sofia
suited at one shop we can look tbra8
fifty or hundred more, bv gong a
few steps further ? A man of conm4
sense will go where be can find the ms.
shops and the most extensive ucs.-.
Knowing this fact, a wholesale halter A
boot maker i'll New York prefers to I'd
into whole street Of hatters and bod
makers, and will pay more rent for tlt
privilege Of so doing.
Vermont is getting to be one compact
street of Merino sheep sellers and this il
one Of the immense advantages YOU enioy
in this particular. He who starts from
| Illinois and Wisconsin to buy sheep, come
here He knows he can find the SAM
sheep elsewhere. but in comparatiyel
scattered lots And the same will be- tm
of those European buyers, whom We shaI
find coming to our shores in few year
to purchase sheep with which to improv
| the inferior ones of Europe.
One more word and / have done.
there are no injurious rlvalries betwes
the sheep, there ought to be none betvee
their owners. What is it to me if 4.
gets more for his sheep than / do. Doe
it injure me No; it benefits me. Wbe
he carries up the prices of his sheep.
also carries up the prices of mme. fifth
| leading boot store in the block sells boot
at $40 pair, those which have not quit
so much reputation can sell at IS a pal
without having the price exhorbitant-
But if the leading seller himself sold a
| IS, then all besides him would have +
set at SO. 1t is precisely so with sheep
Every man who sells sheep for SlOQ
| IN Vermont is a benefactor to all the WOO
! growers of the STATE, and instead of envy
/ ing him and carping at his success, they
should, if they know their own interests
unite to build him up and raise him saf
higher.
The manly, upright and intelligent ca
OF breeders in this state are bound to all
and stand by each other, giving all dbl
honor and credit to each other, and to
each others breeds and focRs of sheep
as if you were band of brothers.
