sale Of Thoroughbred Sheep.

On Wednesday last large crowd Of farmers
and dealers from Virginia, West Virginia,
Maryland, aud the District, assembled at the
farm Of General G. S. Meem, near Mount
Jackson, Shenandoah County, Va, attracted
by the sale of about 900 thoroughbred sheep.
several hours were spent In examining the
stock, which included some Of the finest speci-
mems owned In this country. A bountiful
lunch was served at nOop, and the sslo COM
menccd an hour later. Colonel Neem acted
~ salesman, and gave the age and pedigree Of
each animal as offered. They found ready
purchasers, and were disposed OF at the rate
Of one u minute. About 40 Cotswold
sheep were sold at prices ranging from Sl2 to
t;i3 for the ewes and from fls to So for the
bucks. Mr.. samuel Peters, Of Martinsburg,
bought the highest priced bucks. Thirty-fve
Southdowns,all bucks,wer sold at prices rang.
Ing from SEQ 10 40 Colonel r. ii. Dulaney, of
Ioud0un, securing the prize buck. The entire
sale realized si,i59 an average Of $50 per head
for the stock sold.
General Mien deserves great credit for this
enterprise, which will have the effect Of dis.
tributing some very fine sheep throughout the
State, and will do away with the necessity oi
going to Kentucky for blOoded stock.
