into large sacks and packed in sol
idly by men who tramp it down,
when it is then ready to be stored or
sent to market. 1t is estimated that
100000 sheep will produce over
100000 pounds of wool annually,
which brings in return to the wool
growers from 100000 to 100000
per season. After shearing the sheep
are ready to go to remote portions Of
The range where, during the winter
season, it would be impossible to
take them. The more suitable places
for winter grazing are saved and al
lowed to grow a good crop of feed.
In this mild climate it is not neces-
sary to shelter the sheep during the
winter.
One herder will have charge Of
about 1000 sheep He watches them
craze all day, taking them to water
when necessary. During the dry sea
son they are watered every other
day. At other times it is not neces-
sary more than twice week. About
dusk the herder gets onto his bed
ground for the night. At the least
disturbance the sheep will begin to
bleat and move about which to the
herder is "a sign of danger to his
flock.
In order to keep in touch with the
number of sheep in his band the
herder has a very ingenious method.
1t is about the only place where the
black sheep" are placed on an equal
with the bell sheep" 1t is a small
matter to count the bells and blacks.
If all Of these are present the herder
feels quite certain he has not had a
very great loss. Each herder makes
study of the range, so that after a
rain he will know where every pool
of water is within thirty miles.
While ther is large profit in the
sheep industry there are many ave-
nues of loss and expense in connec-
ton with it. Herders are paid from
$40 to S25 a month and board, each
furnishing his own bed. bunch of
sheep lost from the rest of the flock
is often killed in one night by pack
of coyotes. The loss from sheep kill
ed by wolves, wild cats, ETC., is some
times quite enormous. A bounty is
paid by nearly every county in New
Mexico for coyote and wolf scalps.

CALLED OFF WILSON, RALLY
GEORGIA FRIENDS POSTPONE
PRESIDENTIAL BOOSTER.
Are Afraid 1t Would Be a Failure.
Governor Harmon of Ohio Is
Looming Up Large.

I
Observation-Disclosures was
made today that the big state rally
in behalf of Woodrow Wilson. fixed
for November IS, at the Auditorium
Armory here, had been indefinitely
postponed
The reason given was that several
of the prominent speakers who were
scheduled for this meeting could not
come now. William McAdoo of New
York, who was to be the principal
speaker, was asked if a future date
would suit him, and he stated that
postponement would be agreeable.
Some of the anti-WiIson people
hint that the real cause for calling
Off the rally was the fear that it
would not prove a success now, and
the Wilson leaders feared the effect
of a poor meeting at this crucial
time
Georgia democrats who believe
Governor Harmon is the man democ-
racy should center on in the presi-
dental contest are looking forward
with interest to the Ohio governors
coming in December during the big
corn show.
They believe his appearance in At
lanta at this time will have a good
effect and serve to win a good fol-
lowing to him. He is a genial cor
dial man, good mixer, and it is be-
Ileved he will make a good impress
sion on the voters of this state.
There is no doubt that there is a
strong body of men who wish to stem
the Wilson tide in this state, believ-
ing that Harmon is the better man
OF the two. Governor Wilson has
some powerful influences at work
for him, however.
The calling off the Wilson ralIv
at this time, however, is looked upon
as significant.

CAN'T HUNT THANKSGIVING
ARMY OF SELF-STYLED SPORTS
MEN WON'T GO OUT THIS YEAR
This Has Always Been the Annual
Slaughter Day, When Even the
SpaTows Were Killed,

Are you, Mr.. Hunter, fondly
dreaming these days Of searching
out with the aid of the faithful dog
the coy partridge? Do you happen
to be one Of the great number of
sportsmen who take an annual out
ing with the dogs and gun every
Thanksgiving day in this splendid
sport?
Well, anyway, it is just as we'll to
forget it and plan some other form
of diversion for November 80, be-
cause the state game law covering
the killing of game has placed it's
legal mantle about the quail for its
protection until the first of December
just few days too late for the
Thanksgiving Outing-and there will
be nothing doing so far as taking
a wing shot at the good old Bob
White is concerned.
While the number of quail this
year is said by hunters to be larger
than for some years past, the average
cOVey of gOOdly numbers, and while
the longing of the sportsman is in
consequence increased the followers
of the sport in this locality are de-
sirous of abiding by the letter of the
law, and while there are some who
may be tempted to slip out and take
a chance of running afoul" of the
game wardens the great majority Of
those who usually travel through the
woods and fields will go after mem
bers of the finny tribe or else stay at
home and eat turkey meat. Hereto
fore a small army of self-styled hunt
ers, armed with thermos bottles,
club sandwiches and eleven pounds
of ammunition, have fiOcked to the
woods on Thanksgiving day, trespass-
ing at will and blazing away, be-
tween drinks and bites, at every au-
tumn leaf in sight. Often something
besides birds was shot. This year
these so-called nimrods will have to
stay at home or else take out license
and secure permission from land
owners to fish on their preserves.

SHEEP RAISING IN THE WEST
HOW IT Is CONDUCTED IN THE
SEMI-ARID SECTION.
In New Mexico Wool Crop Amounts
to 100000 a Season. How the
Big Herds Are Cared For.


The west and especially the south
west afford splendid opportunities
for the raising Of sheep on a large
scale. The reader will remember
that a large portion of New Mexico
is quite mountainous and the lack of
water a hindrance, so much so that
ordinary farming in many places is
practically impossible. These very
conditions seem to be conclusive to
the raising Of sheep. The climate in
that locality is very mild and, when
we consider that thousands of acres
of government land are still used
for free grazing purposes we gain a
conservative idea Of the western way
of growing sheep. Sheep are so fit
ted by nature as to be able live on
brush and weeds if necessary, with
only an occasional drink; hence bet
ter than cattle they are able to with
stand drouth Besides they are bet
ter able to climb mountains, and
therefore can thrive and live where
cattle would be unable to go. AS
the sheep are constantly under the
care of herders who select the place
of grazing and watering they do not
have to depend on their natural in
stinct to guide them to grass and
water.
About the first of April comes the
Landing season, a busy time for the
sheep man, for he is then preparing
for several months of the hardest
work of the whole year. 1t is neces-
sary at this time that suitable places
be secured where grass and water are
contiguous in sufficient quantities to
prevent the need of moving the
focks any great distance for some
time. Lambs are very tender while
young and must be taken care of
almost like children. Exposure to
snow storms, or even to cold rain,
involves great loss.
The shearing season begins about
May. Contracting companies that
hire number of men who go from
place to place, carrying their camp
outfit, do the work. Improvised sheds
are built to protect the men and
machinery, the shearing crew consist
ing of 20 to 40 men. One owner
may have as many as 10000 sheer
to be shorn in one camp. ShearinI
plants are stationed along some o
the trails and employ about 100 mel
who will shear as many as 100000
sheep a month. These men receiv
from to 10 cents per head. TIL
machines are placed along the wal,
side by side, and connected by a lon
shaft with a gasoline engine. TIL
shearing scissors resemble ordinar
hair clippers, but to do good an
rapid work they must work at yer
high speed
