TENNESSEE PRODUCING
MORE AND BETTER SHEEP

During the past few years there
has been a gradual, but consistent
increase in the number of sheep rails
ed in Tennessee. The year ending
December 80, 1919, showed an in
crease Of per cent above the pre-
ceding year.
This increase should continue, since
it will add materially to the .acome
of the farmers raising them A Sc .e
with the amount of pc lre Tcnnes
see possesses could very peoit bly,
be raising one million and a hall
sheep or more, instead Of oa'y one
half a million, or to be exact. $4,000
sheep which is what the 1920 census
estimates are on the farms of the
state.
A few sheep can uiu4ly be convent
emily and economicaly rn1 on most
any farm, but the arc Thousands of
acres Of pasture In Tennessee in GER
tain sections, notably knob and noun
tious lands that are more suitable
for raising sheep than any other form
of livestock.
Ready stabilized mark is are avail
able for the wool ord L mbs to which
these products can be delivered with
in short period of time and at a
limited shrink The price. too, for
these products the past few years
has been such as t. how a nice profit.
Conincident with this gradual in
crease in sheep rrodurtion during
the past fe wyears has been a marked
improvement in the quality Of the
lambs. This has been due to the use
of better bucks which are being
brought into ms ny counties over the
state. The use of better bucks has
been found by sheep men to- pay, in
that better y ices are obtained for
the 9iato ATTY of lambs and wool
produced
There lis been considerable in
terest on the part of many farmers
in running few sheep ntheir farm,
or increasing the size of their focks
this past year, but the difficulty of
securing breeding ewes of the kind
has handicapped them somewhat In
order to eliminate this difficulty, ar
rangcments have been made by the
Nashville Union Stock Yards to bring
into the state an adequate number
of the best Western breeding ewes
that are to be had during the present
season, running from 2 to years of
age. These will be accessible to the
farmers wanting to buy sheep at as
near cost as possible.
The dog menace is another factor
that has retarded the development of
this industry in Tennessee and is d.
rectly responsible for the marked re-
duction of sheep which some years
back were in the state. The enact
ment of the dog law the past year
should tend to counteract this danger
and stimulate confidence.
