SHEEP RAISING MOVEMENT

1t is generally conceded that sheep
raising in Garrett county would be a
most profitable undertaking, it would
therefore seem that the first thing the
sheep raisers' association should do is
the eradication of the only thing that
has stood and still stands in the way of
the successful raising of sheep in this
counties, namely, the sheep-kiiling dog.
There would not be the slightest
difficulty in having the coming General
Assembly of Maryland pass law that
would give the farmers of Allegany
and Garrett counties all the protection
they should ask for from sheep killing
dogs. This nuisance out of the way
sheep-raising in these mountain counties
would soon become the most profitable
business in which our farmers could
engage. Only a little while ago the
Washington Times said editorially on
this subject:
Washington no less than Baltimore,
is interested in the news that there is a
movement to revive sheep raising in
Garrett and Allegany counties, Mary
land.
1T has been many years since this
industry fiourished in that section, and
even was carried on to some extent in
Washington county. But the wide use
of lands for fruit growing. and the
failure of the Maryland Legislature to
take any steps against the predatory
dogs, gradually killed off this industry.
Since then other thickly settled
States, Connecticut, for example, have
solved this problem by imposing a dog
tax and using the funds thus collected
to reimburse sheep owners from loss
from the attacks of dogs. In Virginia
this is done by some counties.
But there should be no difficulty
about obtaining some arrangement for
the owners protection if the sheep
raising industry once more came into
its own in Maryland. If ever there was
an inducement for that industry the
inducement exists right now in the
high prices of mutton and wool. And
the overstocked markets of fruit as
well as the diseases that have swept
through whole orchards in Western
Maryland, should open the eyes of the
farmers to this opportunity"
