An experienced sheep breeder says
that the grading and culiing Of breed

country and as a result quite per-

pounds only. be bred year after year

pounds could be handled as cheaply?
Could not such eve he detected at

some way, they are connected with
their schools for long time after
they have graduated.
This is not as It should be, and II
the assertion is true, the sooner the

OF the scholars, the better for every
body. 1t is serious charge to make,
