That Remarkable Sheep.

Some Of the most singular plants In
the world are the vegetable sheep Of
New Zealand. These are known to
science as raoulia eximia, and al
though they are of such a strange hab-
1t Of growth they are members of the
daisy tribe. The vegetable sheep grow
at high attitudes. usually or some
bleak mountain slope, which may be
5000 feet above sea level. The whole
plant Is a compact mass Of stems
densely covered with small woody
leaves. So closely do the raoulias re-
semble sheep that experienced shep-
herds will often climb a long way up
the mountain. thinking that they see
some missing. member Of their flock
huddled against n rock. only to dis
cover that they have been deceived by
q plant! During a recent exhibition
ut Chrlstchurch, IN New Zealand, some
specimens of the vegetable sheep were
collected for the show. The plants
are often large and heavy, and II re
Qulred the efforts Of half q dozen
strong men to secure some nne exam
