DAIRYINGA
LIVE STOCK
STARTING WITH SHEEP
inexperienced Farmers Should
Begin With a Small Flock.

Prepared by United States department Of
agricultural
The best time to get a start In the
sheep business is In late summer or
early fall. Ewes can be procured more
readily at that time and when purchas-
ed can be kept OH meadows, green stub
BILE fields or late sown forage crops to
get them in good condition for breed
ing. Experience with the ewes through
fall and winter will also make a be-
ginner more capable Of attending to
them at Landing time In the spring.
The inexperienced sheep raiser should
begin with grade ewes Of the best
class available and pure bred ram.
1t is seldom possible to buy any con-
siderable number Of bred ewes at rea-
sonable prices. The raising Of pure
bred stock and the selling Of breeding
rams can best be undertaken by per-
sons experienced In sheep raising. The
selection Of the type and breed OF
sheep to raise should be made by con-
sidering the class of pasture and feeds
available and the general system Of
farming to be followed along with the
peculiaritles Of the breeds and the con-
ditions and kind Of feeding and man.
agement for which each has been espe-
cially developed. References to the
bulletin on breeds Of sheep for various
uses will help the beginner to make
his selection. Once decision has been
made the aim should be to obtain ewes
that are individually good and that
have as many crosses as possible OF
the breed selected. With such a fOun-
dalton and with the continuous use OF
good pure bred rams of the same breed
the flock will make continuous improve
ment.
Best Age For Breeding Ewes.
In looking for ewes of desired types
and breeding It will often be found i'm
possible to get them near at home at a
reasonable price. The demand has ex-
hausted the local supply in many Sec
lions. Ewes from the western ranges
can be obtained directly from stock
yard market. For the most part the
range ewes are Of Merino breeding,
usually free from stomach worms and
because Of regulations governing the
interstate shipments Of sheep are also
free from sheep scab or other cOmmu-
nicable diseases. The sheep from the
range are less often infested with In
ternal parasites than are farm sheep,
and in the large shipments there is OPP
portunity for closer selection. Ewes

start with sheep unless the arrange
ment of the farm and the plan of Its
operation allow the keeping Of as many
as thirty ewes. and In most cases sixty
OF more will be handled better and
more economically than a very small
flock. The number of eve lambs that
can be kept for breeding each year
should be about half the number OF
breeding ewes. Old ewes should be
discarded when five years old. When
this is done and the poorest Of the eve
lambs are sold flock will ordinarily
double in size in three years. After
two seasons experience 1t will be u
good plan TO buy more ewes when good
ones can be obtained u fair price.
The economical disadvantage OF a
very small flock lies I'm the fact that
