for mutton sheep is rapidly gaining in
the United States, and this will annual

wethers that tip the beam at 200 to $50
lbs. at two Years old, and sell at + to
cents per pound, we can stand a little
free wool Some Of our breeders have
sold Wethers at $14.UU to $1,000 per
head. If you will use rams weighing
$50 to 3UU lbs. you are safe enough,
and l will he satisfied. l want all the
lambs to show flesh direction at birth.

we try to get dense fleece OF long

juries will not live. Some We're slltfo-
Gated by gas arising i'll the shaft, and it
is said no man could live below.
An hour later the superintendent of

shift went down in cage. They
were unable to get more than hundred

Another rescue party went down ut

The entrance WAS completely blocked
by the wretched wood work. The res
