THE MERINO SHEEP VERMONT
America Has the Finest Merino Sheep
in the World-The Development
of the Breed.

No greater Improvement was ever made
in the breeding of domestic animals dur
ing the last century than the development
of the Merino sheep of America. and par
ticularlY of Vermont. writes John IL. Nj al
of Rutland county ia the New England
Homestead. 1t is now universally acknoWl-
edged that America has the finest Merino
sheep in the world. They produce more
secured 1inC wool than any other breed OF
sheep. The early imported Merinos were
faulty in form. with thin neeCes, and those
shcaring from three to seven pounds OF
wool were considered fine sheeep. by
carefully selecting the strongest animals,
studying all the points that would i'm
prove them In build. fleece. and covering,
We now have rams that clip from - To
over a. pounds to a fleece, and many ewes
shcarine from Is to % pounds How this
has been done may well be asked Tho
early imported Merino of a century ago
was long legged. had long. slim body.
neck and nose. thin on the shoulder and
through the hind quarters. The rams
would weigh scarcely 100 pounds and the
ewes 50 pounds. To-day We have ewes
that will weigh from 125 to 40 pounds.
and rams from $50 to over 200 pounds.
Gradually the change in this breed has
been effected and brought down through
the last century by the careful, untiring,
persistent and continued efforts of the
breeders, always selecting for animals OF
strong bone, building up a form with
stronger constitution, until the fixed type
of the Vermont McIino has little or no
resemblance to it's early imported ances-
tors.
