HEAD OF CHOICE SPRING LAMB.

b-
While looking about the stock wards
a month or so ago, The Rural New York
ers artist came upon the lamb whose
head Is pictured here. 1t is certainly an
Intelligent head. and, according to ths
artist. ought to be an intelligent animal.
lie was engaged in work that will, if
carried out, bring profit TO American
farmers. In the words of Rural New
Yorker, though he died for the cause,
the flavor of his flesh may help to stimu-
late the demand for good American NUT
ton to such point that farmers will see
their way clearer to meeting it. This
was ''spring" lamb-a cross of a South
down and a common eve. He was one
of choice lot from Virginia that brought
irst prices and gave such excellent salts

There is demand in all our large
markets for good mutton, but it is i'm
possible to supply this demand, for the
reason that first class mutton cannot be
obtained at anything like reasonable
price. The mutton that is sold in the
markets does little besides running its
own reputation. Parties who have
eaten Canadian mutton wonder why
such meat cannot be found here. The
fact is that too many American farmers
have utterly neglected the breeding of
mutton sheep. They have bred entirely
for wool, and the result is that they have
well nigh ruined very profitable meat
industry. 1t is high time that steps were
taken to stop this retrograde movement.

good COW is fiat ribbed just back of
the shoulders and has well sprung ribs
further back. She has broad, fiat ribs
and so far apart that one can lay two
fingers between them. Her skin should
be loose and fiappy over the flank and
her umbilical development should be
firm and strong, with the veins of the
belly very prominent. She should be
broad between the eyes, should have a
medium length, straight face and bright
and prominent eyes. Besides, the poll
or forehead should be long between the
horns and the eye; the neck should be
clean and thin and backbone strong, the
pelvic arch high, the hams thin to give
ample room for a large udder, and the
tail should be long, slim or fat. She
should have long udder, extending well
back and front-one that will be soft
and fiabby when MIXED out-and should
have a three-fold, wedge-shaped form,
the general tendency of weight being
towards the udder. indicating power to

A Story That Is Told.

1t is told that in some parts of South
Australia a contrivance to supplant the
''decoy" wether in yarding sheep at the
shearing shed has been adopted, and with
apparent success. Alarge mirror is fixed
at the end Of the lane. The sheep, see
ing themselves reflected in this, march
straight up to it. The mirror has to be
of strong plate glass. and even then it is
questionable whether it would stand the
butting of a pugilistic old ram. The
idea seems very feasible and might prove
effective in trucking sheep.
