Il take great pleasure of testi1ylng
to the superior mutton qualities OF the
Asiatic Karakule broad tail sheep be
cause I am very much interested IN
seeing a development OF this strain IN
this country Our experience has been
that on crosses between Asiatic kara
kule broad tail sheep and one or two
other domestic varieties, lambs are OBJ
taIned which at the proper lamb age
weigh go to 100 pounds. and have the
most delicious flavor as well as the
heaviest yield Of mutton We have
marketed a few lambs that We were
able to buy for slaughter, with some
OF the best hotels in the south and
their testimony is right along these
lines
"I hope Dr. Young viii be success
full in introducing this strain generally
because I think it viii improve our
southern stock, particularly from a

the Curls which becomes tighter as the
pigment in a given skin becomes in
creased. As there are about as many
people that prefer rather loose curls
to tight Curls the difference in price is
very little.
As gloss is essential in commercial
karakule furs, we are naturally
obliged 10 cOnfine ourselves TO long
wool sheep; as our Merinos, RambOu-
leJtes, ShrOpshires, etc, do not pos
sess any luster and interfere with the
formation Of curls, it IS necessary to
cross them first a few times with Lin
coin or COtswold bucks, and after that
the graded long wool ewes can be bred
to karakule rams for fur
Using Graded LincOIns.
We have just completed arrange
ments for the purchase OF 500 graded
Lincoln ewes from governor GOOding,
OF Idaho, which we can obtain for
about 81 per head, and we expect the
same results as We would from full
FLOODED registered Lincoln or COtsWold
ewes which would cOst us about SIS
per head.
We simply mention this fact to show
that the owners Of tight wool sheep
have a good chance to go into the fur
raising business providing they are
willing TO raise graded long woods
which when crossed with KarakuIes
viii herd as close together as MerinOs.
If the raising OF lemD skins does not
appeal to the owners Of MerinOs, Ram
bOulettes and ShrOpshires, then the fol-
lowing points should certainly he NJ
interest to them:
4. KaraHUle rams when crossed with
our short wool viii give an increase Of
30 percent in weight with the sleepy
taste Of our MerinOS. RambOuletres and
ShrOpshiTes absolutely eliminated
2. VIII make our sheep gOat-lilze

Only last week We have had the
pleasure Of discussing in detail the
tests made by the armour Packing
company Of Fort Worth, Tex. and were
told that the half blood KarakuIe tight
wool lambs, three and six months old,
actually show an increase of 50 per-
cent in weight with the disagreeable

In answer TO your inquiry in re-
gard 10 my experience with the broad
tail sheep, as compared with the other
breeds which / have raised beg to
say that I have found the broad tail
sheep a great deal more satisfactory
and profitable than any other sheep
with which I have had experience, and
rom my knowledge OF the sheep bust
ness, / consider them by far the great
est combination sheep or all purpose
sheep, ever produced.
For number Of years I have raised
registered Shropshire sheep on the
ranch, and have also kept flock of
graded sheep for mutton, or eating pur-
poses on the ranch, and also TO send
to the market I mean to say I only
sold my registered sheep for breeding
purposes TO other sheep raisers, and
my graded sheep TO the packers.
In 1902 I bought registered Tunis
buck, which is a broad tail sheep. as
you know, Of African origin. and
crossed him on q bunch of high grade
Dorset ewes with most satisfactory re-
suits. I continued this TUnis breeding
until i learned of the Persian broad
tail, and the first time I saw a Per
sian broad tail buck, I fancied il on
the account of its size and also feeling
cOnfident that. IT would possess the
good qualities Of the TUnis which it
certainly does.
4 have been breeding the Persian
broad tail sheep on the ranch for five
years; they have given such remark

Schaefer took his stand and kept cross
firing his comedy. He talked to 5000
fans, he kidded the homers, and he en-
couraged the Nationals. Then he rush.
ed over to the bench and had conference
with McAleer. A switch In the personnel
of the team was made, and Schaefer's
strategy won. No wonder that when he
made the last put out the German
humorist gave vent to his comedy while
home, sorry that their favorites had met
such a setback.
The story of the game was really in
the last four innings In the earlier
rounds the Athletics had obtained an
advantage that appeared to place the
game in the win column.
In the third, after the Nationals had
scored once, the Philadelphians showed
three runs across the plate on four hits,
and base on balls, and in the fourth
made another with two hits and an
error. 1t was after two were out in
the eighth that the Nationals started
their .pyrotechnics. Schaefer ripped of a
single to center, and when Elberfeld
followed suit. Schaefer pulled up at
third. This gave Herman the chance
he was after, and he started his antics,
never to stop until the taxicabs had
reached the hotel.
Shaefer told Morgsn to look out for
Gessler, and when the pitcher disre-
garded this advice a nd put one over, the
doctor drove II over second base, send
ing in two runs.
Walkers chance at short was booted
and Mcbride came over with a hit
which gave the Nationals run which
placed them within one Of the Athletics
John Henry led of In the ninth by
dra wing a base on balls, Morgan gave
way to "Collegian'' Danforth and Con-
roy was substituted for Walker. This
&vas tic first strategic move, and al
though Conroy went out, he moved
Henry to second. Then came the big
change that really brought out the VIC
tory.
After Schaefer and McAleer had
talked matters over Walter johnson was
PULLED out and, although not considered
consistent hitter, the big pitcher took
the place of Morgan at the plate and
whipped out a single that drove in Hen
~ and tied the game.
Ir the tenth and eleventh the Athletics
threatened, but johnson was so clever
that he was able to stop their rushes,
and in the eleventh the winning tally
was chalked ur. With two out 1t was
Conroy and Milan who accomplished the
feat. Conrcy doubled to center and Mi
Ian drove him home with screaming
bingle to right.

~ CHICAGO, Sept. 6-wrestling has died
5here as a result OF the fiasco at ComIs-
liSAy Park yesterday when Gotch made a
gnsonkey out of Hackenschmidt, and Jack
9 G1rley, the Russians manager. is the
Ifhost execrate ed man in the Windy City
today. His admission that he knew two
weeks ago that his iran was unable to
do his best on the mat against the
champion is looked upon as a part con-
{, fgssion. He did not ask for a postpone
dn1ent, but sent Hackenschmidt into the
lring with a twisted knee, received IN
Training.
- There is a bad taste about Curley's
connection with the match. He has re-
+cefved 1897 for his share of the re-
ceipts, while the big Russian took but
S13,5eO. .Cdrley also took ore-quarter Of
the clubs receipts. bringing his grand
total to $34. .S91, and he is to have one
quarter of the moving picture royalties.
Curley's profits are the greatest of all
those connected with the affair.
- Jeered by the Fans.
an When Referee Ed Smith announced
- from the ring that all bets were called
on there was a chorus of jeers from
the fans who had packed into the South
side park TO see the match. They
s-scented something wrong and wanted 10
.s4be informed No information was given
Out, however.
'--- When the Russian calmly turned
lover on his back in the second fall,
as soon as Gotch acquired his terrible
toe hold, the fans poured upon the
-tne4d, shouting at the foreigner and
calling him 'quitter" and yellow. -
rtbe tame ending of the affair has
soured all Chicago on the wrestling
game.
Then commenced the investigation
INTO the match. 1t disclosed Curley
. to- be promoter of the affair, secretary
of the Empire Athletic Club, and the
man to receive the largest slice of the
profits. The fans paid SST,053 to see
t~enty minutes of wrestling. Gotch re.

Gotch, in condition and trained as
hard as ever before in his life, was
ready to give the spectators a fight
fer their money. He was earnest and
conscientious, and when he saw the
"hog fat" Hack come into the ring
threw him the moment he could, to
end the disgusting spectacle 1t is
hardly probable Hack will ever get
5another chance to wrestle in America

thing IN the match was that the NOV
