Farmer Gives His Experience in
the Sheep Business.
MORE REMUNERATIvE THAN HOGS
They Tax the Soil the Least That Feeds
Them, and Cause Us the Least
Trouble-E.C.
nv. L. Ames In Wisconsin Institute. |

Our sheep business dates back farther
than can remember. Its origin on the
mothers side was three superlative na.
tive ewes that sheared ~ pounds OF
wool each. We have never bought eve
since, but have sold probably upward Of
1000 sheep, all our own production, and
our stock in trade to-day numbers AIS
all told. A year ago last May we sheared
800 sheep, last May 430, 30 that our flock
for the year averaged about 400, from
which our books show direct income of
81, 700, besides the surplus nun bers we
have on hand over our averaged num-
bered flock, and improvement over the
original stock with an average of ~
pounds OF wool per head to an average
for the 430 last May Of l0R pounds per
head.
Then, in conclusion, why do we keep
sheep? Certainly not because we have
no experience with other lines OF stock,
as we are continuous producers of sheep,
hogs, cattle and grain. And they prove
most remunerative to us, all things con-
sidered, in the order named.
The dairy business, though disagree
ably combining, seems to be overdone,
especially in the production of bitter,
solid, rubbery and indigestible cheese.
While for the near future OF the beef
question we are with everybody else
hopeful. Still the discouragements OF
the present and the near past need no
mention. OF the grain fed to the hog
the iewest fertilizing elements ever get
hack to the land from whence they came
While the living of our sheep costs us
the least. they do the most toward keep
ing the farm clear of foul weeds; tax the
strengthen it most; are the least confn-
are the most quiet, contented and easily
handled keep the farm in the best pro-
ducing condition, and the dollars that
come to US through them come the east
est of any that find their way into our
languishing purge.

Sir Rutherford Alcock, chairman Of
the British North Borneo company, had
recently very pleasant report to make
OF the progress in North Borneo. where
iand Is being taken up so rapidly for to-
oacco plantations that they have had to
raise the price from IS to Sc per acre,
SIX hundred thousand acres are now laid
down with tobacco, and the crop now
being cut will yield 500 tons. The quality
Is said to be superb, A free grant of
from 1000 to 1880 acres of land is offer.
ed to any one who will bring it into cul.
ovation and keep it in that state for
coffee, sugar, sage, hemp, indigo or pen.
per. On the whole the report was very
hopeful; but why does Sir Rutherford
Alcock give the revenue of his COMPANY
IN dollars? Surely we have not vet come
TO such pass that the British pound
sterling Is to be disused as the monetary
unit in the very heart of the British EN-.
