1t is a good sized breed, larger than
the Shropshire and about equal to the

They can be distinguished from the
Hampshire because they have no wool
on the forehead. Otherwise their head
is very similar. for it is black. The
legs are black and free of wool below
the hook and knees.
They do not shear as heavy as the
other breeds discussed, because the
fleece is shorter and lacking in density.
They are spare of wool underneath as
rule. Regardless of these objections,
they compare quite favorably with the
Hampshire in wooling qualities. :
They have not been SO extensively

They possess wide rumps, deep and

1870 to $40 pounds. but the breed
weighs extremely we'll for its size.
Their faces and legs are gray or
mouse-colored; the wool extends down
over the forehead only and as far as
the hook and neck. Heads should be
short and compact, with considerable
w4uth of forehead. Ears are of medium
size and carried alert.
They are subordinate in this re-
spect. They will only shear on the
av rage about SO pounds. The staple
is rather fine, but short and not any
too dense.
Their lack of size would interfere
with their profitableness under oul
conditions, and also the fact that they
are light shearers. They are best
adapted to sections where a premium
will be paid for mutton CT superior

scription given, studied in connection
with the illustrations that accompany
this discussion, will enable the reader
to become fairly familiar at least with
these breeds.
The Shropshire is classified as me-
dunn wooded breed. They possess
what is considered a good mutton form
and conform we'll to market demands.
The best representatives of the breeds
are broad and compact and symmetri-
cal and standing on rather short legs.
It is characteristic of the Shropshire
to be more perfectly developed in the
fore quarters than in the hind quar-
ters. In fact. their fore quarters con-
form more closely to the type desired
than do the similar parts in any of the
other breeds. They have broad casts,
with the brisket projecting we'll for
ward; short thick necks blending
nicely with the shoulders, and large,
FULL chests, or we'll developed crops.
They are too frequently somewhat
light in the thighs and rumps, espe-
cially in comparison to the character
of their fore quarters. Mature ewes
should weigh from $50 to 100 pounds,
and the rams 200 to 225 pounds.
They have dark brownlsh legs. face
and ears. Wool should cover the face
and extend down the legs. Their ears
are short, blunt and fine and the fore.
head broad, head short and broad at
the muzzle.
They will shear on the average
eight to nine pounds of unwashed
wool. The staple is medium in fine
ness, length and density.
This breed is no doubt the most
widely distributed mutton breed Of
sheep. 1t is very popular in nearly
every section where diversified farm
Ing is practised. Their general popu
larity can be largely attributed to the
fact that they combine good muttor
qualities and very good wooling quail
ties.

TUNGSTEN A REMARKABLE
METAL.

The use OF tungsten as an alloy foT
fine tool steel and as filament for
incandescent electric lamps has made
possible on the one hand the produc.
ton of steel tools possessing an effi
cheney never dreamed of by the most
expert steel forgers OF a generation
or so ago, and again, has brought 10
civilization an artificial illuminant riv'
aling In purity and brilliancy the rays
of the sun. In an illustrated article
in the May number of Popular Me
chanics, Guy Elliott Mitchell describes
this remarkable metal Among other
things, he says:
while the use OF tungsten as an
alloy for tool steel creates a market
for extensive mining of the metal, IL
is In electric lighting that it holds
the field against all rivals. Its great
resistance to heat makes it unsur-
passed for use as filament
in incandescent electric lamps,
and such lamps are rapidly COM
ing into common Use, 1t is the
most perfect of artificial lights. The
one great drawback to the use OF the
lamps is that the filament is brittle
and the loss In shipment is large. The
life Of the tungsten"filament lamps
Is. however. fully twice that of car
bon lamp. and it can be used on either
alternating or direct current AS
thousands of filaments can be made
from a pound of tungsten the market
for tungsten ores for this use Is very
small. and the supply can never be
exhausted"
