CONCERNING FAT TAILED SHEEP

in reply to a number of inquiries
concerning the Kirghiz fat tailed
sheep which were recently imported
we to the United States by Prof.
N. e. Hansen, and which are now
quarantined in the east in the care of
government veterinarians, the editor
ial department has secured the state
ment from him that follows:
There are a large number of
breeds of sheep in Asia, the Russian
Empire having probably more than
any other country in the world. This
fact was abundantly illustrated at the
sheep exhibition in Moscow in 1912.
The sheep of Asia and Europe are
classified by authorities into four
classes; long tails, short tails, fat
stumps, and broad tails. With the
help of eminent Russian specialists l
vas enabled to extend by knowledge
gained by personal observation in
Siberia last summer, and my choice
was the largest and best mutton sheep
of them all, which is the breed found
among the Kirghiz Tartar nomads in
the Semipalatinsk region in the great
Steppes north of Turkestan and west
of Mongolia. The superior hardness
of this race Of sheep has been demon
strated throughout thousands of years
surviving long periods of famine in
winter when common European breeds
which have been tested die faster
than they do during billiards. on our
western ranges.
"These Siberian sheep are much
larger than the fat-tailed sheep al
ready in the United States, which first
came over about 1779 from the warm
climate of Tunis in northern Africa,
bordering on the MEDITERRANEAN Sea.
They are also different from the few
red Persian fat-tailed sheep Of Texas
and New Mexico. Strictly speaking,
these Kirghiz sheep belong to the
fat-rumped group of sheep with a very
short rudimentary tail hidden by two
huge symmetrical lobes Of fat cover
ing the buttocks and weighing from
twenty to forty pounds. The lambs
when dropped are very active from the
start and fatten quickly to get ready

for the long winter. This surplus fat
is deposited in the part called the
Kurdiuk which carries them through
the winter by the aid of scanty herb
abe which sticks above the ice crust.
They receive no care or protection
during the whole life period except
from wolves, and the Kirghiz Tartars
very rarely put up any feed for them.
The meat is of splendid quality and
entirely free from the flavor of ordin-
airy mutton. The fat in the Kurdiuk
Is clear fat without mutton or tallow
odor and is used for frying and as a
substitute for butter, giving it the
name of Kirghiz butter.
81 do not wish to enter into any long
discussion upon the many breeds of
Asiatic sheep at this time but since I
underwent much hardship to get these
two rams and four ewes to America, l
nope we will receive them in due sea-
son and that they will do as well as
they do in their native home. They
were examined and passed by three
Russian veterinarians before leaving
Russia and a report just received
from the east that they are
in splendid health at the present time.
The sheep will be in charge of
Prof. James w. Wilson, director of the
experiment station, who will test
them along with the many standard
breeds of sheep. If any come up to
expectations, further importation
must follow, as I believe it will mean
a new source of wealth for our high
est dry uplands from the Panhandle"
of Texas to our northern boundary,
and especially in the northwest where
at present severe losses or range
sheep are often experienced in winter
billiards.. The meat itself would real
ly be a new kind of meat since the
flavor is different from that Of ordin.
airy mutton. The size runs large,
often from $50 to as high as 430
pounds in mature specimens.
"The wool from these sheep is long
and coarse and is largely exported to
the United States. We also get the in
testines in large quantities which are
used for sausage castings. This is be-
cause the sheep have fed for ages on
coarse forage and have much stronger
intestines than the common sheep. I
made some careful studies as to the
beneficial effect of crossing this breed
Of sheep with other breeds in getting
both superior mutton and fine wool In

The people of the west and south
who are feasting on strawberries in
December have nothing on South Da-
kota this year. Until a couple of
weeks ago trees we're budding and at
present grass Is yet green, and chick
ems are Matching. The first of the
week Mrs. Dave Batchelder noticed
an old hen suffering around the door
yard and 500 the hen disappeared
under the porch. Dave was told Of
the circumstance and he got a rake
and pulled "Biddy" out and with her
came a couple of eggs one of which
was spoiled and the other contained
a chick which was just about to hatch.
Things became interesting about that
time and Dave and his wife began
raking out more eggs with chicks in
them. The hen was given a warmer
place to hatch her chicks and now Mr..
and Mrs. Batchelder have a number
of downy pets to care for. They will
be having spring chicken for Sunday
dinner before the rest of us are think
ing of setting the hens.-Toronto

Over the Teacups Club held a pleas
ant meeting at the home of Mrs. Grace
Walters last Friday evening. The
quotations which were requested to be
sung created much merriment, and it
must be confessed were not as classic
as the subject of the evening might
have led one to expect. Also it was
discovered that most of the club men,
bers we're not expecting to make their
debute on the stage and accumulate
reputation and a fortune with their
voices. Mrs. Grace Walters opened
the program with an interesting paper
upon the life of Haydn, which was
followed by a talk upon his music by
Miss Walker. A Haydn duet upon the
piano, by Misses Youngberg and
Pierce of Brookings, was very pleas
ing and highly appreciated. Miss
Pierce then gave a Haydn sonata
brilliantly executed and with one in
depreciation, and the program closed
with a Haydn instrumental trio play
ed by Messrs. Omodt and Frystrom
and Miss Walker.

Oh, my! Oh. my! Have you seen

The following from the De Smet In.
dependent refers to a former college
student: THE matter of the State OF
South Dakota VS.. Clarence Dunning,
charged with statutory crime, which
was on trial at the time we went to
press last week, resulted in the jury
returning a verdict of guilty" at
one o'clock Friday morning. Tuesday
morning at $50 of this week was set
as the time for pronouncing sentence.
At that time Judge Taylor gave him
the inderteminate sentence, which is
provided for under an amendment en-
acted in 1901, the maximum being
twenty years. The termination of the
sentence will depend upon the board
of charities and corrections. In ar
irving at a c~onslusion to terminate
prisoner to parole, the board, together
with the warden of the pentitentiary,
is supposed to take into consideration
the character of the individual prior
to conviction, the record of the trial,
and the record of the individual while
serving sentence. The intent of the
law is to give freedom as soon as a
reformation in the individual has
taken place. So. far as this state is
concerned this is a new thing, but it is
in accord with the so-called scientific
study of criminology."
