OAIRYlNG AND SHEEP.

The correlation of sheep raising with
farming and dairying is also eXtens-
lively practiced by the vast majority of
the farmers Of this section. Only
purebred sheep are raised and the in
dustry has grown to be of such pro-
portions that this territory has come
to be the supply center for not only
this state, but to a great extent for
the neighboring states OF Oregon and
Utah. Men engaged in the sheep bust
TO raise their rams on the range, have
been coming here the past several
years TO purchase sheep. and as
consequence, the Meridian country has
come to be very widely advertised as
the home of purebred sheep. Numerous
farmers throughout the Meridian coun-
try have as many as 100 sheep on
their farms. To the industries Of agri-
culture. dairying and livestock is to
be attributed the phenomenal pros
perity now enjoyed by this commun-
ity. A better farming country con-
sidered from all agricultural view
is there a greater application of the
principle of diversification than in the
farming country Of this immediate
section. To express 1t in the vernac-

SUSPECT is CLEARED
PHILADELPHIA POLICE ABANDON
CLUE IN MODELS DEATH.
Son of Wealthy Brewer drilled by Of
ficers, 5ut Is Later Released--Ne-
gro Under Surveillance.

Philadelphia, Jan. 3-Either a
wealthy man about town or a negro
murdered Maize Colbert, also known
as Mrs. Grace Roberts, the lad" model,
Sho was found strangled with q silk
stocking in her apartment at Fifteenth
and Poplar streets, according to police
b.,ief. The supposed clue, duplicating
a rich Chicagoan, has been abandoned
as worthless.
The authorities hold that either the
clue leading to a local white man I'M
der surveillance or to a negro will
solve the mystery.
The son of wealthy upstate brewer
was grilled by Captain of Detectives
Tate and members of the murder
squad" in the hope of clearing up the
mystery surrounding the death of Mrs
Roberts.
The brewers son was again sought
but he had left the hotel where he
was a guest, and could not be located.
The name of the man was not di-
vulged, but he was the subject of a
prolonged conference, after he had
been invited" to tell what he knew
concerning the slain girls habits,
friends and life.
Detectives learned that Mrs. Rob-

Mrs. Roberts was infatuated with
University of Pennsylvania gradu-
ate and former football player, but
they had been estranged for several
months, the authorities say q munich
pal employee who knew them told
them. Several weeks ago the man,
who lives at Cynwyd, a suburb, sought
a reconciliation, and arranged for u
dinner party with the woung woman
on New Years day, according to the
detectives informant.
One theory of the police is that an
other of Mrs. Roberts admirers
learned of the reconciliation and be-
gan jealous quarrel that ended with
the girls death
The grilling and information of the
jealous lover who had quarreled with
her overshadowed in Importance the
earlier theory of Captain Tate to the
effect that a tenderloin degenerate
had caused the death. Tate had then
said that he was convinced the MUIR

Sausage SKINS of six.

The packing of sausage meat In the
old way has long been an Objectionable
proceeding to fastidious persons. 1t
also has been declared insanitary, SO
that many families have tabooed the
link sausage. Now thin silk cases are
being provided, which can be sterilized
to the last degree of sanitation. Being
of chiffonlike texture, they would hard
ly be noticed If taken into the mouth,
although they can be easily removed
at the table. These thin silk cases can
be supplied at cost little greater than
the sausage skins now in use and are
proof against the attack of vermin.
