DOGS VS.. SHEEP.

\ reader Of Semi-Weekly Journal who
lives at College Point. New York state,
writes ME concerning the necessity for
diversified farming I'm the southern
states and also encloses a clipping from
the New York Evening Post, which had
been written for an Illinois newspaper:
DOGS VS.. SHEEP.
One reason why wool is high and why
there has been no revival of sheep rails
ing in New England is because many
persons seem to set a higher value on
dogs than on sheep. SO long as dog
keeping is encouraged and dogs are per-
mittted to roam at will there will con-
tinue to he little wool produced in this
section of the country. But perhaps New
Englanders feel that they can get along
better without the wool than without the
dogs.-Springfield Union.
Why i'm this world our southern farm
ers cannot wake up to the possibilities
of sheep culture is beyond my compre-
tension
The value OF wool is beyond our com
putation as a staple product the price is
always good. for nothing takes it's place
for lightness and warmth.
The value of mutton for healthy FOOD
for human beings cannot be discounted.
Ii is understood to be exceptionally fine
for those who cannot eat pork because
of il greasiness and beef very often is
refused by delicate stomachs.
From my childhood mutton broth for
sick people has been considered nearly
on a par with chicken soup.
