and sheep and cattle have been win
tered at less expense, and are In better
condition than for years past. Sheep
have been able TO subsist in the fields
nearly the entire winter, and have re-
quired very little food in addition 70
grazing. The ewes are nov dropping
lambs, and are unusually prolihr, twins
and triplets being the rule instead OF the
exception.
Farmers generally concur in the opin-
ion that the growing wheat never looked
better at this season Of the year, and
promises one OF the largest yields ever
realized. This is the conclusion to-day,
but much demands upon tho weather IN
March, which is considered the most
trying month, and may materially In.
iure the present fair prospects. ~ -

tee OF this county have already taken
steps 10 prepare lor the meeting OF the

OF late years our farmers have been
giving considerable attention TO sheep
raising, and the results have been 50
satisfactory that sheep culture is likely
In the near future 10 become leading
branch of industry in this county. A
meeting has been called by those inter
ested for the purpose OF organizing q

will have tendency to direct the stten-

grain raising. E...H
