THE SHEEP SHEARING.

As heretofore announced, the annual
exhibition and shearing of the Vermont
Merino Sheep Shearing association will
be held at the barn of the association on
the fair grounds in this village on Mon
day, Tuesday and Wednesday next,
April |, and 3.
The officers have made careful provis-
ion for everything needed to make the
show and the shearing a success. Sheep
are once more looking up, and those who
have good ones can't advertise their
merits more cheaply and easily than by
bringing them out.
The Central Vermont railroad will
bring stock to the show and return it
free of charge, on conditions which can
be learned of any station agent on the
line.
All indications point to a large show
and attendance. The roads are better
than they have been at this season since
the shearings were begun, and this fact
will have tendency materially to in
crease the turnout; while the new inter-
est taken in sheep-husbandry since cleo
ton will also have its effect. +. ID. Nor
rison of Addison writes President Bissell
of the association that he will have 40
sheep here, and that the Messrs. Burwell
and Byron Smith will also make good dis
plays. Shoreham will be represented by
such focks as those of j. r., f. f. and
j. Q. Stickney, Miner Jones and Mr. Bis
sell, and probably by others.
