TO ENCOURAGE SHEEP-RAISING.


couraging sheep raising on every
farm, which is being urged by the
Government, and for the further pur-
pose Of arousing public sentiment in
favor of Statewide dog-control
law will be held at Wilmington Thurs
day of this week, the 10Th, Under the
auspices of the Wilmington Chamber
Of Commerce and the North Carolina
Sheep Breeders and Wool Growers
association. The conference will be
held in the morning and there will he
an exhibit of pure-bred and commonI
sheep. The afternoon will be devoted
to a visit to one or both fthe meat,
packing plants at Wilmington, and to
other diversions.
The raising Of sheep is important
from the standpoint of food, wool for
clothing and soil fertility, and almost
any farmer no doubt would be glad
to raise sheep but for the worthless
roaming dog who dares him to do it.
That public nuisance and dead expense
not only stands in the way of prof
liable line of livestock farming, but
he is a menace to human life by
spreading rabies, he spreads the
germs of hog cholera and in some
sections make hog-growing almost i'm
possible, and interferes seriously with
raising chickens and turkeys. +
But in spite of his sins, it is not
proposed to ekterminate the worthless
roaming dog; so let no lover of the,
dog rise up in arms. 1t is merely
proposed to control him. Certainly
that is fair proposition. By attend
