What was once distinctly the ranch.
Ing portion Of North Dakota produced
thousands Of sheep because conditions
were found well adapted to sheep hus
bandry. The experience Of the indus.
try which once fourished in that part
Of the state demonstrated that sheep
could be raised under ranch conditions
10 successfully in North Dakota az any
other place. II they can be raised un-
der ranch conditions successfully we
can be assured that they are profitable
to rear under farm conditions. II we
consider the nature Of our conditions
and the crops grown on the farms Of
the state 1t Ia evident that sheep rails
Ing should be paying business. In
fact, the writer is Of the opinion that
sheep raising will prove to be one OF
the best Glasses Of live stock to pro-
duce, considering our climate and crop
productions.
Our farmers are beginning to appre-
ciate this fact and many are starting
to raise or handle sheep. The writer
finds that many are at loss to know
what breed of sheep they had better
raise or, In other words, rams If what
bred they had better use to grade up
:heir flock for the production Of the
best results. For that reason l have
deemed it advisable and possibly prof
table to our readers to give descrip-
ton of the characteristics and adapta-
bility Of the breeds of sheep which I
consider best suited to our conditions.
There is great opportunity for to

duotion Of pure BREEDS Of these breeds

BIRTH Of i WING.
Evolution Of tho Aquatic Pupa Into the
0raoon FIv.


Says a writer in the Scientific Amer.
lean: "A wonderful spectacle Is pre-.
scented by the sudden apparition Of
an insects wing at the completion of
its metamorphosis. The transforma.
ton Of the grub into the butterfly,
though familiar, is none the less amaz-
ing, but the evolution of the active and
gossamer winged dragon fly from its
ugly and sluggish aquatic pupa is still
more impressive. Early on a May morn
ing the pupa emerges from its cocoon
at the bottom Of ditch, swims on its
back by padding with its long haired
paws to the stem of an aquatic plant
and climbs up out of the water. Then,
after momentary pause, the skin
suddenly bursts open and the perfect
insect appears, with closely folded
wings, which soon unfold and assume
their final form.
1.-THE older naturalists thought that
the insect swallowed air. with which
the wings were inflated. In reality
the air is absorbed In the digestive
organs, causing an increased blood
pressure, which mechanically expands
the wings. The presence Of dew Is
also necessary: hence the first flight Is
always made at dawn.
This spectacle Of the birth OF a
wing may be observed in dragon flies
reared in an aquarium, the atmos-
phere Of which should be moistened
with an atomizer when the pupa rises
to the surface"

these breeds.
The Shropshire is classified as me

The best representatives Of the breeds

to be more perfectly developed in the

ters. In fact, their fore quarters con
form more closely to the type desired

They are too frequently somewhat
light in the thighs and rumps, espo'

Of their fore quarters. Mature ewes

It is good sized breed, larger thar

They can be distinguished from the
Hampshire because they have no wool

legs are black and free Of wool below

They do not shear as heavy as the
other breeds discussed, because the

They are spare Of wool underneath a.
rule. Regardless of these objections
they compare quite favorably with the
Hampshire In wooling qualities.
They have not been 30 extensively

RUY A CARLOAD OF PIANOS.

Knapp Bros, yesterday purchased
carload of Baldwin made pianos from
o. Z. Berger, the western agent of
the company.
This is the largest shipment of
pianos ever made into a Whatcom
county town outside of Bellingham..
and possibly the largest ever made,
into the Northwest outside of Bell
ingham. There are IS pianos in the
consignment and they are all Hamil-
tons and Monarchs.
The two makes selected for the
big order are the makes that have
proven the best sellers in this dist
riet. The Hamilton is the better
advertised piano, but the Monarch
is proving popular instrument.
Of the dozens of piano players who
have tried the Tribune's prize piano
which is a Monarch all have said il
has a wonderfully easy touch and as
sweet tone as they ever heard.

GEORGE ERR WILL
LEAVE LYNDEN

George Err has purchased a home
in Bellingham and will move to that
city with his family the latter part
of this month.
The Erz family are pioneers in the
Nooksack valley. They have seen a
garden grow from a tangled swamp
and the prettiest town in the state
spring up where there was nothing
but tall trees and Indian tepees. And,
of all this that they have seen they
have been a part. 1t is going 20 be
hard for them to pull up and leave
Lynden. 1t is going to be harder on
their many friends.
As has been told in the Tribune
occasionally Mr.. Err is the inventor
of some window locks and other
things that are considered to be very
valuable. His present expectations
are to move to Bellingham and there
manufacture these locks.
Mr.. Err has been a good citizen,
for Lynden, just as he will be a good
citizen for what ever town he lives
in. He is a creator and a booster and
he has always been public spirited
ready to give, whether in wof4
or money to help make his town as
good or better than the rest. | re-
call now a story one of his old neigh
| bors once told me, that illustrates
!, this.
In the pioneer days George had q
place back of the Forbes ranch
: That was before the Guide Meridian
road was built. Travel to Belling
ham generally took two days for til,
trip. The road ran half mile ives
of the present route around Wise
Lake and the people living north >
: the river We're ferried across from
j. point about half a mile south of III
Guide bridge. From the river nortl
e was through a low marshy stri
e and the trails ran every which way
T. Err and his neighbors attempted !;
have the county build road straigh
= north from the ferry, but the count
6 was too poor. The route was pract
e ical without building except for som
n rods by the Err place. Seeing tn
;. county would do nothing, Err buil
l. a floating bridge of poles himself an
y gave it for public use making all {
,r the country north of the river access
e able. The bridge was so constructe
$ that in dry times it lay on the maj
o shy bottom. In high water it ;loa

able.
;e Mrs. Err too has a place in II
l. hearts of all who know her. 81
IN hasn't always waited until peop
l. were sick or dead to show the
le that she had a heart. AS a matter

in announcing it said,
And may God help you.
Later in refusing to be elected he
stated that he had been accused in
that meeting of robbery" where
as az a matter of fact there was 70
word spoken during all the meeting
that would reflect on his or on the
ho, esty of any one of the trustees.
There was severe criticism of the
business methods allowed to prevail.
Mr. Brown told the writer at the
close of the meeting that word had
been sent him that Lynden was COM
ing down after his scalp. If anyone
told Mr. Brown that, he was an
enemy to Mr.. Brown. Lynden people,
many of them, do not like Mr.. Brown
