REGISTERED SHEEP.

w. E. Minner and Sons have just
received from Ohio shipment of 26
thorobred registered bucks, that are
perhaps as fine animals of their kind
rs can be bred There are four Ok
ford and 90 Hampshires, all bearing
registry certificates from the Ameri-
can Hampshire Sheep association. Two
of the Hampshires are three years
old, but all the others are yearlings.
These bucks were sheared week ago
and the two older ones had fleece
weighing Is pounds each. The young
er sheep averaged about ~ pounds
each, said to be very high quality
and bringing a high price. Samples
show the wool to be four and five
inches long.
BY breeding up their flocks with
this kind of sheep, Minner and Sons,
and any other sheepmen in this sec
ton, will soon have a high grade wool
and mutton output that will bring the
most satisfactory results, and will re-
pay all the time and attention put
on them. This class of animals eat
no more than an inferior grade and
take no more attention, but they will
shear almost double the average
grade sheep and the lambs are very
much heavier in the fall when they
come off the summer range. 1t is a
very encouraging sight to see the
stockmen of this region getting into
improved stock of all kinds.
