sheep and get rich quickly7 That's
the argument that traps everybody
who has a 'get-rioh-quick bee in his
hat.
Remember this, that no man can
succeed with sheep who has not first
learned how. Big profits do not come
to g%reenhorns. There may be no pro-
ft at all for a year or so. Sheep are
the most helpless Of all domestic ami
mails. They don't know enough to
come in out Of the rain" They don't
know much Of anything. They have
been cared for 80 attentively for cen
turtles that they quit making any effort
to care for themselves. The nan who
is not willing to give them this care
is unfit to De a sheep man. It re-
quires g%entleness, for they are meek
and helpless.
Our advice is to go slow with sheep,
BY all means. raise sheep. They
should bo on every farm. But start
with a few, one or two dozen at most,
and learn how to care for them. They
will multiply as fast as your skill in
sheep raising will warrant. II you
can't save the lambs, theE you are
unfit for a larger number. If you can
save them you soon have the large
number. A dozen sheep will show
you all the holes in the fences as com
pletely as 500 will.
Prices are alluring, but keep a level
head. There is no telling anyway, be
cause they benefit the farm whether
prices are up or down.
