Landing time Is undoubtedly the
most critical period OF the year In
the successful management OF the
Farm flock. At this season the nock
should have the constant attention OF
thc shepherd to take care or the many
needs demanded in order to insure a
minimum loss In the number or amos
born. The fact that sheep require SO
little attention during the major part
pf the year often results in the farm
er making small preparation for this
important season. This unfortunate
condition has probably done more In
hurry to the sheep business on Indiana
tarms than any other factor. So often

In memory we often think,

For memory keeps our dear one near us.
