AGRICULTURE
Sheep Husbandry in the South.

Sheep Husbandry in the South.
Editor of The Progressive Farmer:
If it be not too late I will try to
fulfil a long ago promise to give the
readers of The Progressive Farmer
the result of our experience with the
200 American Merino (fne wooD
ewes and three stock rams purchased
and brought from Illinois to North
Carolina last year. Up to shearing
time this last spring we had lost ff-
teen old ewes, seven and a half per
cent, and had gained about fifty per
cent in young sheep.
Last year the wool of 200 ewes
and stock rams bought us $375.75,
or about $185 per head net. This
year the same ewes, less the per cent
of loss, but with the per cent of
gain, brought us 1925, or about
$145 per head. We sold only three
eve lambs but a number of rams last
fall and more this summer to the
greater parts of the State as well
as to near neighbors at from $40 to
$25-averaging about $15 per head.
In noting the falling off of 40 cents
per head it must be understood that
the 100 lamb feeces went in the av-
erage and they being so young, never
shear so heavy as the old ones, be-
cause they are generally much small
er and do not have a years fleece on
them. However, the ewes did not
average as heavy feeces because they
had the whole year only the common
wild grasses of the South-much of
the time woods pasture-and in the
winter while they had a fair supply
OF grain, yet cotton-seed hulls and
other rougher forage than they had
been used to in Illinois. I think their
1eeceS fell short of last years from
TWO to three pounds. Last year our
heaviest eve fleece was eighteen
pounds; this year the heaviest one
We noted was fourteen pounds, but
lhe average ewes was still over ten
pounds as compared with thirteen
pounds last year. l am confident that
Il they had been grazed on the same
Kinds, or rather quantity of tame
grasses as in Illinois and sheltered
from the bleaching rains, they would
nave shorn as much or more than last
year. But they got fully bleached
out IN rains as the fine sheep barns
no" up were not up till January.
One reason I have for thinking
!ney would shear even heavier than
Ii Illinois with the same keep, is that
ouf three stock rams that were
housed from storms and at night the
year round and fed as such high
class rams are fed there, shore twen-
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1903-09-22


last year-one that shore twenty
pounds last year shore even thirty
pounds this year; one that shore
twenty-six last year shore thirty-two
pounds this year, and the one that
shore twenty-nine pounds shore
thirty eight pounds this year.
The fact that the whole flock of
sheep lived through the year in our
climate and Jared on our Southern
food and were subject to our condi-
tions all around, all of which is very
different from Illinois, seems to me
to be prima facie evidence that our
fine wool American Merino sheep
will live, thrive and be profitable here
in the South.
AS for diseases that are contagi-
Gus, infectious or prevailing, or that
caused them to "die like sheep" on
account of our climate, our land, or
its products, we have had no such
experience. The greatest enemy to
sheep husbandry in every section
where I have kept them, In fact, In
all countries, is worms of one and
another kind that infest one or more
of the vital organs. When flock
becomes so infested, prompt acting
and efficient worm-destroying medi-
cine must be given the flock as they
may die off like hogs do when at
tackled with cholera or like cattle
with "Texas fever" If in the sum-
mer they should be changed to fresh
pasture several times and if In win
ter their barns should be thoroughly
cleaned out and their floors, racks
and troughs disinfected, while the
remedies are given the sheep until
all traces disappear and the flock be-
comes healthy.
When little punches of sheep are
kept as they are now in the South
swhere they have free run of very
large pastures, they will select her
bage in plants that are antidote to
worms and mostly avoid their violent
attacks or disastrous power; where
hundreds of sheep are kept together
on plantations, such antidote plants
are soon consumed and if the sheep
from any cause begin to decline in
condition, there comes the parasite
worm breeding opportunity to in
crease by millions and help the poor
sheep down hill to the bone yard
rapidly.
If the sheep have plenty of good,
wholesome food to eat, so as to keep
them in fine thriving condition all
the time, their physical organization
is quite able to throw off disease and
danger from worms even better than
other kinds of stock when kept in
large numbers. Impure water, mouldy
