SHEEP EUs3ANDRY.
Sheep Lasbandry for market has
lsnever claimed tho attention OF our
people, but every farmer of any
prominence owned from fifty to one
huudred head for family use, for
wool aud mutton. These sheep run
through toe woods at large and re-
ceved no attention froni their own
ers, except to salt them and clip the
wool from thcm. AS to feed, they
made their own living OF the COM
mon range, wherc the wild grasses
grow thick and are never exhausted
by heat, drouth. or the many thoas.
ana stock which feed there. From
the middle OF March until the first
Of December, the old fields 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 ST.

attention has been paid 70 the cult
walton Of vegetables and fruit, and
the result has been so satisfactory
that there appears great disposition

potatoes is drawing attention as two
crops can be raised in one year

December and February and mature
in May and June and plant again IN
June and July for fall crop. EARLY
vegetables are shipped from an ad~
