Our Sheep Industry.

We have had several inquiries
from the north regarding the raising
of sheep in Florida, and hardly know
what to say on the subject. In our
opinion there is no better state in the
Union for this industry, which is
now all the rage in North Carolina;
but in Florida there is no regular
system adopted in sheep raising.
The few attempts we have seen made
in eastern Florida have been failures,
from the want of knowledge and
carelessness in management. In all
other countries people take care of
their Stock or have servants to do
SO, but here the sheep are turned out
to wander, fancy free, anywhere and
everywhere they like, to be destroyed
by dogs and wild animals, or die
from sores.
The old cotton plantations of west
iern and central Florida are more
adapted to sheep raising than almost
anything else. Many of these plan
tations, containing thousands of acres,
can be bought for four or five dollars
an acre. They are generally on high,
rolling land, with good drainage.
The more they are fed down the bet
ter the land gets, and the sweeter
the heritage. Plenty of these places
can be found in the old cotton.gro
ing counties. ....,
In entering on sheep raising in this
State, we would recommend COM
mencing with native ewes, and i'm
proving the flock with imported
bucks. We. consider the Southdown
sheep best adapted to the State, for
there is always coed sale for the
mutton, and the wool is near to the
market. In every place where the
meat can be sold, mutton sheep can
be raised with greater profit than for
the wool. The Southdowns are
hardy, fatten easily, and the mutton
is first quality. The sheep should be
taken care OF, by having some one to
drive them out in the morning, and
with the assistance of Collie dogs,
folded at night in place protected
from strange dogs.
Some people recommend the merino
sheep as being best adapted to this
climate. We have seen them tried.
but there were certain reasons that
made the attempt result in failure.
The merinos were brought from New
Hampshire, one of the coolest states
OF the Union, and where they had
been aCoarsSnaed s;; bcs housed and
taken great care Of Here they were
cast adrift like orphan tramps, to find
precarious living on their own
hook. With such a good market as
we have for mutton, we cannot see
the advantage of merinos over South.
downs.
An interesting work on sheep rails
ing has just been issued by the De-
partment OF Agriculture at v ashing-
ton, and we advise any one who teels
disposed to enter on this industry to
write for the work and peruse it.
We feel confident that this State can
be made great sheep country. We
cannot judge from results so far, for
the failures made have not been the
fault of the climate or soil, but from
mismanagement. y
