the United States AS our readers know the
crowdng OF the cattle out OF many section OF the
range by the sheep has been attended by mucn
bitterness and controversy. There are three pr1n-
cipal species of range sheep The old Mexico
sheep the direct descendants OF the original
Spanish Merinos, brought over two hundred years
ago by the Spaniards in Old Mexico They have
long legs; 81 long, thin body, and the wool is fine
and thin. They are hardy excellent travellers and
will keep in good condition the poorest and
dr,est Of ranges. Often they outsell all other
sheep, for the meat has an excellent flavor and
the hide is thin firm and soft. These original
Mexican sheep have been largely graded with Me-
rino in New Mexico and southern Colorado.
The New Mexico sheep as they are denominated,
are small-bodied sheep, and although they never
grow very large they get very fat. They bring
good prices, for the same reasons that obtain in
the case Of the Mexican sheep above mentioned.
Merinos also to be found the range in great
numbers many OF them having been bred from
Merinos brought from the east The lambs are
shortlegged and not good travellers the
southern sheep, but they need not be, for Wyonl-
ing, Idaho, ETC., have, the average, better
ranges than are to be found in New Mexico, and it
is in these northern states that the Merinos hold
sway.
Almost all range sheep affected with scab,
though 1t is frequently SO held in check to be
scarcely noticeable AS remedy it is the general
practice to dip" all range sheep, and this opera
ton, carried on extensively On large sheep
ranch is decidedly picturesque Oftentimes It is
deemed necessary to give the same sheep several
clippings at intervals of ten days, and occasional
~ this dipping is done In zero weather. On the
large ranches there specially constructed dip
ping watts with runways for the sheep they ap-
proach and leave the watts. etc. Various ingredi-
ents used in the preparation Of the dips,
among the most popular being lime, sulphur and
tobacco.

veyed this side of the Atlantic FOR many years
and many a farmer paid almost fabulous prices
for sheep having no adaptation to anything except
wool production. Perhaps this state of affairs was
due to the impression that long held sway that
the American people were pre-eminently nation
OF pork eaters and had little appreciation for good
mutton Whatever justification there may have
been for this in the past it certainly ceased years
ago. depression in the price of wool some
score OF years ago was very influential in
bringing about change of conditions and
once started the movement in behalf

Chicago, has shown gain of fully million sheep

consequently will Craze proftably seni-arid

pecially large return for liberal ration Of good
foods. AS showing how much more appreciation
OF this fact there is in other countries than In the
United States it may be cited that recent Stats
tics showed that there were not to exceed 20
sheep per thousand acres of land in our leading
agricultural states whereas in England the nigh
priced agricultural lands sustain an average Of
$50 sheep per thousand acres. and in Scotland
there may be found high 1880 sheep re

The champions of scientific agriculture in the
United States are just now striving earnestly to
