THE SHEEP BUSINESS.

The following letter in answer TO inquiries
concerning sheep may be Of interest to our
readers. The writer is the well known
sheep man Of this city:
DoDsE CITY. KAs., July l9lb, 1882.
N. II. LIVINGSTON. ESQ, Kansas City.
DEAR SIR: Your favor 18th inst, came
10 hand and contents carefully Noted, and in
reply will say that have had a few years
experience in the sheep business-Breeding,
shipping and handling wool.
/ consider the Merino grades best adapt
ed for wool ard handling in the west.
Though they do not make a large sheep,
they are most profitable considering WOO!
and mutton.
There is in this market for sale several
lots of FIVE to seven pound shearers, that
can be bought from s.. so to $3.50 per head,
high grade Mcrino ewes.)
Taking everything, in connection with
the business, into consideration, am sat
,siied that Kansas is rs good a state as there
il in the Union, for the above business.
Sheep do well on the natural grasses, but
can be raised more proftsbly from this point
Ea-,, from the following facts:
Land is reasonably cheap and one can
raise sugar cane, which produces eight to
twelve tons to the acre, which can't be beat
en- for iced; in addition TO that there IL
yield of from fifteen to thirty bushels of seed
to The acre, which snylizes equal to corn for
fsitering. Miiiet also can be raised with
out fail, and fed to profit. After harvest
the stubble and volunteer growth can be had
cheap, from neigbbors, and after corn is
gathered the stalk fields can be bought for
ten cents per acre, and thoGgt carefully
gathered, the fields will contain at least one
bushel 70 the acre. Lambs taken from the
ewes in August, abou, the latter part, and
pu, on green feed viii continue to grow
right along. And with all the advantages
o. feed will make, at maturity, s carcass one
fourth to third larger than can possibly be
attained on the range, in addition TO weight,
they will produce two pounds OF wool more.
