they are produced for mutton, with
wool as a side line This side line
should not be overlooked, however,
because the clip from the average
sheep should be almost enough to pay
for the keep of the animal.
To realize a maximum of wool of
high quality the sheep should be
properly fed and handled. AS soon as
theanimal has been sheared in the
spring, it should be dipped Dipping
kills the external parasites, makes the
skin of the animal more healthy, and
causes a more luxuriant growth of
wool.
To produce a large amount of high
grade wool, sheep should be fed plenty
of nutritious feed. When sheep are
improperly fed, they will shear a
light clip of undesirable wool.
All feed racks should be construct
ed and arranged to keep the fleece
free from chaff and dirt. Chaff AMI
dirt cause the wool to become dead
and consequently reduce its CONNER
cial value. The wool should be taken
off in the spring as soon as the
weather is warm. If it is left on toe
long it will drop off and clips will be
light.-Capital.
