America II becoming yearly more OF
a sheep raising and mutton eating
country. says a Washington dispatch
20 the Chicago Tribune. This Is due
primarily To the initiative OF the de-
partment OF agriculture, which for the
last ten years has been hammcring at
the farmer to raise sheep Instead OF
exporting his surplus grain, and which
has helped him In every way To this
end.
one result is that there were re-
ported on the first OF this year over
45.OO0,000 sheep on the farms and
ranches OF the United States, valued at
si27.33i.S55. as against less than u.s.
100000 In 1895. The receipts at the
Chicago stock yards are reaching up
ward every year since 1894. when the
yards took over n million more mutton
sheep than In the previous year.
The department is anxious TO I'M
press on the farmer the value OF sheep
as one OF his farm products. ana "
points out that, while the sale OF $1,000
worth OF corn takes from the soil $500
worth OF fertility. the farmer would
have 10 spend that much In fertilizers
TO recoup the land. The same amount
of corn converted into good mutton and
sold at a higher price than the corn
would fetch takes In the end from the
land not over $50 worth OF fertility. and
II the flock was kept for wool alone IL
would not reduce the value Of the land
more than 50 or ~.
There Is a particular interest attach
Ing To the sheep raising problem just
now because the price OF mutton is GO
ing up by leaps. not only In the stores
where the consumer has to buy IL.
for every one realizes this, but In Chi
cago, where lambs have recently
touched IS per hundredwcight, and are
now selling at about ST.S5.
During The early days In America
sheep were bred primarily for the wool.
and during recent years We have been
importing annually from s25,O00.000 TO
$40, OOO, 900 worth OF wool But the wool
industry in this country has come 10
the point where IL frequently does not
pay TO raise the sheep for the fleece
alone. There has. therefore. been an
increasing effort to get good COM
bInation breed that would live In large
fiocks on n range. furnish good fleece.
and at the same time be n good NUT
ton sheep.
The farmers of the east are still con-
fning themselves To the English breeds
OF downs and shircs. which are great
meat producers, while the western
ranches depend largely on the cid Mex
lean sheep. which In descendant oi

iards. but which has been affected by

acteristics OF It's own. and IN In n great
many respects an ideal sheep for the

his farm products. but IL IL continuing

it's educational work and Is anxious 20
Impress the farmer with the fact that
We still import over half million dol
lars annually OF Canadian mutton In
spite OF the heavy tariff against IL.
The great work that the department
Is striving for now IL the eradication OF
sheep scab. which costs the country
hundreds OF thousands OF dollars annu-
ally. The department commenced n
crusade In this direction several years
ago.
Up to the present moment there ARE
two states entirely cleared OF scab.
and with the right To quarantine
against tho rest OF the world. and as
soon as the national government Is al
lowed to- go into the remaining states
and territories the whole country will
be cleared out and the diseases which
Is the greatest foe the sheep man has
To encounter Will be completely eradi-
Gated.
a good many nonfarmers may not
know Just what sheep scab In. and for
their benefit II may be well TO say that
IL In simply n sheep parasite that gets
under the skin and causes the wool
to fall. completely running the fleece.
and eventually weakening the sheep till
IL dies.
The disease Is acutely contag ious.
and I'LL "a few years ago had spread all
over the United States without a check
being found for IL. Now. thanks to the
departments work, u Is known to be
comparatively easily cured. the sheep
being simply dipped In a solution that
kills the parasite. Either tobacco and
sulphur or lime and sulphur are used
for this. though there are n hundred
different cures now on the market.

POOR DAIRY HELP.

The editor OF the Chicago Drovers'
Journal Ii OF the opinion that probably
In no department OF husbandry IL IL
more difficult To obtain efficient help
than In operating "A dairy. Many farm
ers have been compelled To abandon
keeping cows because help TO milk
could not be procured. as the average
farm laborer dislikcs n dairy.
To operate n dairy successfully good
mixers are necessary. IL IL a strenu-
Gus branch OF agriculture and requires
especial attention to details and regu-
lar intervals for milking operations.
The farmer who conducts dairy IL an
early riser and generally works late
hours.
The average hired man desplses
milking. II IL the first and last func-
ton OF the days work. IL frequently
comes Mt the close OF an arduous day
OF toll In the field. and many hired
men will not engage to work on the
farm where one OF the duties will be
TO work In the dairy. With hired
laborers To milk who dislike the work
the cows soon 40 dry or else refuse
To pay any profit on the cost OF main
tennnce.
The modern hired man wants short
hours and easy service. Some farm
help demand the maintenance OF n
horse and are more gentlemen OF
leisure than their employer.
The average farm employe wants
Sundays TO himself. To arise on Sab
bath morning on schedule time and
milk a dozen cows and be under con-
tract To help milk Sunday evening Is
where the protest comes In. The COWS
need as much care and attention one
day as another. while Sunday specin-
cally is claimed by ordinary farm help

In Germany, Belgium, Norway.
Sweden. and other European countries
women do part or all OF the milking.

business every year more difficult TO

ton IL anticipated until farmers can
