Shearinu Sheep.

Some large f1ockowners say that
when they shear closely they save so
much more wool, an eighth of an inch
or SO on every sheep. AS a matter OF
fact the growth of wool is about so
much each year, and If one gets an
eighth of an inch more this year, he
gets just that eighth inch less next.
So the only time when it would make
a difference would be when a man
was going to sell his sheep before an
other shearing.
