SHEEP HUSBANDKY.
Since our last meeting there has appeared
| what more interests the farmer than sheep
| husbauGry, and consequently with your
| iudu genCe | will alter short dissertation
| on sheep, take up "A question OF more Import
than the business OF she p hushandry.
| Sheep husbaudry q, diversified industry
in - state like Maryland, lying near the
| large cities, and particularly We'll situated for
diversified farming, and probably no more
| profitable selection can be- made to add To
| the profits Of the farm than IA limited mum
| Der of sheep to fill what can be found on
| nearly every farm IN the State, a good
location TO keep few sheep
| john Randolph OF Nlrgiuia. when in Con
| greSs referring to sheep SAID 'he would
| walk mile 10 kick sheep, But the posis
of the world from prehistoric times have
practically illustrated how mankind has
| been benefited by the profits Of the shep
| herds hOcks. Kept on thousand hills,
| with their appearance i'll snowy IL, ce, to
| be woven into cloth for princes aud DeggaTs
| alike, the skipping and playful youngsters
| of the flock and much more all sentimental
| and abandoned, when the farmer com
| meuces with his part of the transaction,
which is to raise sheep for the dollars anu
cen in them, the profits OF the industry.
The profit of sheep hush lndry is regu
lated by circumstances, and probably the
most essential and most necessary of all
considerations atten ling sheep husbaudry
