RAISE SHEEP.

,, advice to brother farmers of couthwest Arkansas.
 IT. is now for the livestock farmer
 n,ote sheep raising one of his n,lor lines of production. Putting iss :Io effects of war conditions, pros "''t ,4;,e values of lambs and wool rem pss sheen raising fully as safe and D e4roctive to the man who will study .d understand the business, as IS the ~a;siro of cattle, horses or swlne. n,;or to 1914 such statement as this .,nld not have been justifiable. As ,nred meat values of the future, the need of greater economy in the use of ,rn, ,abor and the full utilization of nastures place sheep raising in an en- tirely new light.
 Some agricultural journals and rn authorities have been inclined to ouestion the safety of engaging in shoen raising and base their ideas mon statistical facts of decline in ronularity of sheep in southern states cncb statictical deductions are en- tirely misleading, as nowhere IS there an instance in the United States of a decline in a well-established sheep busbandry, based on production Of botb meat and wool. The farm fiocks that have disappeared in the past were raised primarily and almost entirely for wool production, and beyond the fact that they were sheep, had little in common with the kind of sheep that are now being placed upon American farms and which will be found in the near future on nearly all farms. An important feature in starting the sheep business is to quickly work into a hook of around 100 ewes or as IS recommended by the most successful sheen raisers of the southern states, a owe for each two acres of the farm. The small flock which has heretofore been recommended for using weeds and waste feed and incidentally as a small source of profit, is the flock that becomes diseased and because of its insgnfcance in the farm business, is certain to be neglected Sheep are farm cleaners.
 In conclusion. brother farmers, let us get together and have at least one or more carloads of lambs to ship every fall. Hoping to hear from some other farmers along this line, I am

According to the Chicago Tribune
ten families own very large part of
the city's real estate. Five families
are supported by enormous land hold
ings and one fonily owns 4 per cent.
of all Chicago's land. The ten fami-
lies are non-residents and are stead
fly increasing their holdings. Their
interest in the city's welfare lies in
the revenue derived. 1t lacks the
personal touch. the civic spirit which
unftes a community for progress and
betterment. The Tribune suggests
that the nonresident land-holding
evil. common t. all cities, should be
checked by imposing an inheritance

group of families can ever accumu-
late so much property as to destroy
