Mr.. j. l.. Sumner, of Worth county turned
out last fall herd Of seven hundred, and,
when he drove them up to be clipped, nc found
that the increase amounted to three hundred,
or about 43 per cent. Mr.. Sumner clipped
feeces from seven hundred sheep this spring,
and the fleeces averaged three pounds. This
would bring him 100 pounds Of wool, worth
in this market, today, 2l3 cents per pound, or
S43l.5O. THIS revenue Is derived from seven
hundred sheep, worth 1899 in the market,
which cost him, in driving, caring for and clip
ping, about 500. To the net profit add the
value Of the increase, three hundred head, and
we have s6Ol5O, or Is per cent profit on the
