WE CAN DO II.

Your young steers will go to market
after a while as fine beeves if you do
them justice, and the money that they
bring will supply many need. Talk
about taxes If the average farmer
in our country would set aside a calf
every year as the agent to pay the
taxes, as the Irish tenant sets aside a
pig ''as the gentleman what pays the
riut" we would never have any tax
sales in this country andlnever realize
that taxes were a burden. In fact,
we raise cattle here for less money
than it costs in any other portion Of
North America, and, get mora clear
profit out OF them than anything else
on the farm pays. and can make good
money" out of them at almost any
time when offered in good condition. =

SHEEP HUsBxNpRr. ~
Sheep husbandry for market has
never claimed the attention of our
people, but every farmer of any
prominence owned from fifty to one
hundred head for family use, for
wool and mutton. These sheep run
through the woods at large and re-
cieved no attention from their own
ers, except to salt them and clip the
wool from them. As to feed, they
made their own living or the COM

grow thick and are never exhausted

ana stock which feed there. From
the middle of March until the first
of December, the old field. furnish
the finest of pastures. Sheep are
perfectly free from disease here.
None have to be dipped for scab or
ticks. This is truly the home Of the
sheep, none better. The price of
common sheep is from 81 so to 81
