By aiming to get the best mutton you
will be certain to get the best wool,
which will always sell, no matter what
breed it belongs to.

The Southdowns are very fine mutton
sheep. They are short wooled. The

ewes are prolific. In England, where
sheep raising is science, beautifully
marblized mutton is produced.

The farmers of the Northwest are TAX
ing much interest in the industry, but
many of them lack the necessary knowl-
edge and experience. The profit in
sheep husbandry depends upon the
proper selection Of the stock and the at.
tention given the aocks. These require
ments met, combined with its favorable
climate and grasses, will make the Da'
kotas and MinnssoSa Ted for wool
and mutton as the II wheat.

In fine weather at all seasons they
should be kept during the day on, the
range. This is as necessary for health
full exercise as the purpose of securing
food. Plenty of air is one of the essen
tials to the health of sheep.

Ranges infested with burrs and DEVILS
needles should be avoided. The former
spoil the wool; the latter have been
known to kill sheep,

In a letter to The Northwestern
Farmer and Breeder. of st. Paul, but
formerly located at Fargo-and by the
way, every sheep raiser and farmer
should be a subscriber-Hon. E. M,
Prouty, president of the North Dakota
state board of agriculture, says that he
knows, after years Of experience, that
there is annual profit in sheep raising;
that along the line of the Great North
ern, west of the Red River valley, there
are still innumerable places adapted to
the business.
Morris tribune., 1891-03-04

It takes some time for wet wool to
dry. and in the meantime the sheep suf-
fers, if they do not take cold. They can
stand a good deal of water, but it should
be inside and not outside. A soaking
rain washes the dirt down to the skin
and gives the wool dingy appearance.

For winter fodder oat straw is esti-
mated at rs per cent. and wheat straw
at 70 ger cent. of average meadow hay.
Straw is less ctp stipating than hay.
Flax straw mixed with hay makes
good feed but alone is apt to act as a
physie. In feeding, good ration is
what the animal will eat up clean.
Morris tribune., 1891-03-04

1t is never profitable to keep old sheep.
At the age of 3 or 4 years all inferior
breeders should be culled out and sold
to the butcher.

A good Scotch Collie dog in caring
for sheep or cattle is worth couple Of
ordinary hired boys. The Collie is in
telligent, kind, faithful, and sagacious.
There are two breeds, the rough haired
and the smooth. They will not worry
nor kill sheep. They are not absolutely
necessary but they save man many
steps.

The flesh and wool y, )

The flesh and wool u. sheep are
the products of the soil; the best grass
for them is the low growing and cling
ing varieties common in the west,
which, combined with wild plants, make
excellent pasturage. Success in the
sheep business in the Northwest has
passed beyond the experimental stage
with the right kind of men. Profits de-
pend largely upon the individual. The
lazy, Indifferent man will usually fail.
Let no one engage in the business with
the idea that it is play. 1t does not re-
quire as much muscle as it does brains,
vigilance and kindness.
Morris tribune., 1891-03-04

The ewes should be Gagged" that is.
the wool under the tail and around the
udder should be cut off to allow the
lambs freedom in sucking and to pre-
vent the accumulation of filth.

Avoid too much green food, and ex-

fattened for market, concentrated food

With these foundation rules observed,
Notwithstanding that sheep are at the
top price, and more likely to decline
than advance in value, fair degree Of
success may be anticipated, to be FOL
lowed with yeaA of increasing expert
ence, by profit of from Is to 40 per
cent. per annum.
Morris tribune., 1891-03-04

Costiveness is one drawback to sheep
husbandry. The fockmaster should
know that dry food, especially of the
fat forming variety, tends to produce
costive condition. This kills as many
sheep as anything else.
Morris tribune., 1891-03-04

Never let them be exposed to storms,
or. if possible, become chilled by cold
rains. Nature has provided sheep pro-
lection against ordinary cold.

about the properties of different kinds
of feed, viz: what produces flesh, fat,

agricultural paper; every issue will give
information worth a hundred times the

suited to the West than those printed in
the far East In addition to The Farmer
and Breeder, already mentioned, we
might name The Northwestern Agricul-
turist and The Farm, Stock and Home,
of Minneapolis, and the Orange Judd

natural condition the sheep likes rough
and rocky iands, where its feet are
worn away by climbing among the
stones, but when conditions are changed
the feet must be cut back. and no i'm
plement is SO good as these clippers
which are also useful in trimming
the hoofs of calves and colts. Sheep
with overgrown hoofs never do we'll.
In fact, no animal will do its best

and sheep or calf or colt with
overgrown hoofs is as uncomfortable as
a boy with tight boots ON at a Sund ay

No other animals can compare with
sheep for enhancing the fertility of the
land on which they are kept, and if for
no other reason than this small flock
should be owned by every farmer.
