The Breeders G Guide calls attention to
the dislike Of many to mutton as food.
The reason for this dislike is the fact
that much of the mutton raised 10 not
good. but the fault alleged may be
avoided by proper attention on the
part Of the feeder of the sheep. The
breeds best for wool, are not the best
for mutton. When the shepherd pays
the most attention to the produotion
Of wool the quality of the mutton Is
not provided for. The Merino sheep
Is valuable ~ wool producer, but not
for mutton The nutritious grasses
and grains Of the northwest are we'll
adopted to produce good flesh and NUT
on we'll fattened Is superior TO beef and
sells for more per pound in local
markets. When : gocd supply Of tho
best mutton breeds can be assured the
prices will be better. Then our cooks
need training, many Of them, In the
art Of palatable cooking of mutton.
Much Of the prejudice against mutton
arises from imperfect cooking. It Is
also claimed that a. diet for the sick
lamb and mutton are healthier than
other meats. Afamily which was fed
on mutton chiefly, in recovering from
diptheria, was greatly aided thereby.

An inciid1e which occurred Last
wesk q The slste Fair shows the
Importance Of county exhibits at
such places. Mr.. Wilson Ager.
while in attendance at the State
Fair, heard a conversation between.
land agent and a couple of gen
tlemen looking for good location
In Minnesota. One of the latter
said to the hustler who had him
in hand that he had heard Of good
lands for sale in Mobiles county,
and thought of seeing them before
concluding purchase. The agent
told him that the Mobiles county,
lands we're good for grass, suited
to stock raising, but not good for
general farming. The agent pointed
to county exhibit" showing the
products of this years farming in
the county he represented. Mobiles
county had no such general exhibit
ut the State Fair. The counties
having such q show had a splendid
advertisement among the multitude
of visitors from eastern States.
Mobiles county had individual ex-
hibitors at the State Fair, some of
whom took handsome premiums,
but there was no County exhibit
to show that our county was good
for general farming, as we'll as
stock raising. It is too late to
profit BY this hint for this year SO
a. the: State. Fair is concerned.
But it 10 not too late for q good ad-'
vertisement Of the capacity Of our:
farms to produce as largely. and as
good quality, as any land on earth.
There viii be strangers here. See
ing is believing. There is no ad-
vertisement like that Of the pro-
ducts Of the soil. A good fair this
this year viii sell many good farms
