Sheep Raising in Tennessee.
BY t. F. PECK

4 movement is developing over the
State to make effective the law now on
the statute books for the registration of
female dogs by their owners. The idea
is to empower the Humane Society,
through its branch organizations in the
counties, to enforce the collection OF the
tax and compliance with the law.
A report submitted by the Depart
ment Of Agriculture gave statistics show
ing the non-enforcement OF this law and
failure to do SO having disastrous effect
on the sheep raising industry of the
State.
When we compare the sheep raising
industry in Tennessee with that of Idaho
or Montana, and compare the natural
advantages of the States, we find that
while Tennessee is better suited in every
way for the industry, in that we have
milder winters; that sheep are known
to pass through the winter on the range
without housing or other food than pro-
vided by the range, and better watered
lands and greater proportionate area OF
productive range lands, those States are
surprising Tennessee in production of
lambs, mutton and wool.
When we look for the reason we find
that the worthless, half-fed dogs, because
of not being cared for, prey upon the
f1ocks of sheep, and drive those who
would develop the industry to less ia
vored sections for natural advantages.
Some beautiful things have been said
and written, and truthfully, about the
devotion of the dog to his master, and
when the dog is appreciated by his mas
ter, fed and cared for as it should be, it
is not only menace to the sheep indus
try but it is inhuman on the part of the
owner of the dog to force it into out
lawry to maintain its existence.
1t is humane to restrict the propaga-
ton Of dogs to the point where they will
be provided food by their owners, SO
that they will not have to prey on the
sheep for food. The strict enforcement
of the law will solve the problem and
make possible the development of the
sheep-raising industry and utilize prof.
itably at least 25 per cent OF the land
area of the State, better adapted to the
sheep industry than for any other pur-
pose.
The greater part Of the lands on the
highland rim, the Cumberland plateau,
the Allegheny Mountain lands on the
eastern boundary OF the State, together
with the rough untillable land to be
found on many farms, will furnish adj
mirsble range land for sheep and give

At length the arduous quest of the |

woman. He knew better now, for
real affection filled his soul and glor-

Then Vance Merton did selfish
thing. He neglected his mission, he
forgot all about his duty to Lawyer
Doyce. Here was a fresh, charming
girl, unspoiled by experience, content
and happy in a humble sphere of life.
What might not the possession of
wealth and luxury and idleness do to
change that sterling nature?
Vance secured an introduction to
the object of his esteem. He courted
her, he learned that her modest, SEN
sible tastes were akin to his own. He
proposed and was accepted. 4
He ignored Lawyer Doyce as thor
oughly as though he were totally for
gotten. Vance managed to get his
savings together. He bought a sweet
little home and they settled down to
love in a cottage.

when something occurred. This

old skinf1int had not heard a word
from his young agent and had won

others out to try and locate the young
heiress. All had failed. He about
gave up the search and the case
slumbered.
