Among the Shepherds.
The sheperds are about the same all
over Palestine. They are kindly eyed
men with fair faces, bronZed by the
sun. They stay out all day on the
hills with the sheep, driving them
into the villages at night. Each shep-
tie bag Of dried skin. He uses sling
as David did, and stones his sheep to
keep them from Straying. The
strings of the sings are of goat hair,
and the pad for the stone is OF the
same material. often made with
slit in the middle, SO that when a
stone is put in the sling fits close like
a bag. Such things are now used in
stone fights between the boys of the
villages, who practice to see who can
throw the farthest.
The wool Of these sheep is especially
fine. It brings a higher price than
that of Damascus, and something like
a million dollars worth of it is ex-
ported year. The Shearing is done
by land, and much Of the wool is sold
unWashed. Some is washed after
shearing, the work being done by wo
men who receive less than a shilling

Nearly every flock of sheep has it's
goats. They are usually black and

The Palestine of today is a land of
donkeys and camels l suppose the
latter are about the same rs those
owned by Job. They are reared In
Beersheba, where the people largely
live on their m TX. The camel is the
freight car of Palestine. | have seen
many caravans Of them in going over
the country. On my way here we
passed some camels which the Be
doun drivers were shearing. They
were clipping the wool from the
kneeling beasts, which cried and
moaned and now and then uttered
shrieks as the shears Shipped off bits
of their flesh. Not few shed actual
tears. The wool of these camels is
woven into a course cloth which is
used for weaving the coverings Of the
Bedouin tents.
AS far as I can see these camels
Of the Holy Land have no easy job.
They carry loads Of three or four
hundred pounds each, and on short
trips their packs are left on day and
right. They begin to work at three
years, and often last until they are
twenty-five years OF age. Ihe best
of them bring from $50 to 800
apiece and the poorest from S25 to
$50.
AS to the donkeys. they are much
cheaper. They form the draft animals
of the poor and are used by the
farmers for carrying vegetables ana
wood into market. I see them loaded
with olive roots on their way to
