Sheep Raising avs

There is an increasing interest in
sheep which is primarily due to the
fact that there are excellent oppor-
tunities to make good money in the
sheep business today. Up to 1917 the
production of mutton failed TO keep
pace with the demands of the growing
population in the United States which
together with a world shortage OF
meat and wool during the war caused
prices to rise to level which induced
many farmers to go into the raising
of sheep. Since 1917 mutton and wool
production has steadily increased and
consumption has likewise gone steadi-
ly upward.
The consumption of lamb and
mutton, however, is very small. AS
compared with per capita consump-
tion of almost 60 pounds of beef and
E70pounds of pork, less than six pounds
of mutton and lamb are consumed in
this country. The American people
are small lamb and mutton eaters
There is a campaign under way in
the United States to encourage the
popularity of mutton and lamb, and
in 1919 there was 20q6 more eaten than
in 1918. AS this increase only amount
ed to a pound per person, it is evident
that there are big opportunities in
sheep raising from the meat stand
point alone, if the quality of the ami
mails slaughtered is kept up to high
standard. 70
From the standpoint of wool, sheep
men never enjoyed more encouraging
prospects. Not only is wool selling at
attractive prices, but the wool growers
have developed their marketing or
ganizations to such an extent that it
is now possible for them to get more
nearly their share of the consumers
price for their product. The injQsti-
ces of wool marketing in the past are
rapidly being eliminated. The Wis
consin division of the National Wool
Growers Association has already con-
tracted with the National Wool Ware
house and Storage Company of Chica-
GO to handle the state wool for three
cents pound. This includes grading
and storage for FIVE months with in
surance.
Thousands of acres of cut-oVer land
in northern Wisconsin, not to mention
other sections of the state, are well
adapted to the raising of sheep. Last
season several Thousand head of west-
ern sheep were brought to northern
Wisconsin from che drouth-stricken
areas of Montana, and these old-time
sheepmen we're surprised to learn of
the grazing facilities these lands
afforded
Our agricultural agencies are unan-
imous in agreeing that the sheep bust
ness is on firm foundation. Every
thing points to a profitable future.
Old established ,sheepmen are expand
ing their flocks and there are plenty
of reasons to believe that there is
room for many new herds in our own
state. Wisconsin Farmer.

Health Bulletin

Mary is tall, Splndle-ShanKedc hllQ
of thirteen with somewhat round
shoulders and a hollow chest She
stands well up toward the head of
her class at school, reads great deal
out of school hours, and now wants to
take music lessons.
Mary's mother is somewhat anxious
about the child's health but proud,
withal of her daughters delicate, SEN
sitive. delicate nature. Mary's father,
on the other hand, would be happier
if she were more of tomboy. He
baked absolutely on the music
lessons. Finally he and his wife
agreed to put the decision up to the
family physician as referee.
The doctor has just completed his
examination. Mary is about 15G I'M
derweight for her height and age.
Nothing really wrong has been found
in her heart or lungs or any Of her
other vital organs, and yet the doctor
feels that Mary's constitution is of
the type which would be fine soil for
tuberculosis or some other debiliating
disease.
stNoW see here, Mrs. Jones, he is
arguing, "what real difference will it
make whether Mary is at the head of
her class in school or not? She needs
more red blood and vigor. A child of
her age ought to be more like colt
or puppy and less like. sober, orderly
old grandmother.
ssTake her out of school nOWi The
two or three remaining months of
this years school work can readily be
made up. Slam the brakes on her
brain and take them off her body!
Get her outdoors more into the fresh
spring air and sunshine 1t won't
hurt you any to join her. This
summer have her taught to swim and
handle a boat If she must study
something, let it be botany or natural
history. A knowledge of these SUB
iects is just as much culture for a
girl as is a knowledge of music.
'Mary is the type of girl who will
eventually be married. She should be
prepared for motherhood. That means
that she should have good physical
equipment Quite as much it means
that she should have good healthy
out-of- door type of mind and an album
dance of animal spirits. II SO she will
be better mother for her boys be-
cause she will be better prepared TO
understand and properly direct those
young savages at the age when they
drive the ordinary mother nearly
crazy. Take care of her body, and her
brain will care for itself.

MISSIONARY ACTIVITIES
Three Lakes Church Over
subscribes its Budget.
Phelps Church Plans.

Missionary work about the county,
or more correctly speaking, in the
territory comprising the Villas county
field, shows much activity on the part
of the different localities. The Three
Lakes church is included in the field,
and short time ago that church
oversubscribed its budget. The years
budget called for $500 for painting
and repairing and all running expen-
ses of the church. A few hours can
vass brought the total pledged up
around the $500 mark, which means
that the Three Lakes church-goers
are an active working organization.
The canvass for funds for the new
church at Phelps is well under way.
Early this spring the former church
was burned to the ground. A new and
better location across the street from
the former site has been donated, and
the assurance given that when the
new church is dedicated it will be
free from debt Liberal pledges have
been made and no trouble is anticipa-
ted in securing enough to build a
church commensurate with the needs
Of chat thriving community. The
building will be large enough for all
church purposes, with a basement
capable of taking care Of the social
activities connected Herewith. This
will include Boy Scout work, Camp
Fire Girls, and any other community
organization that wishes to hold
meetings there. With the $4,000 insur-
ance from the former church, solicit
tation.is nicely started with every
promise of success.

1t will be remembered some
weeks since we mentioned that
MeSsrs. A. G.. Barrow and Paul
Bryant had planted lot Of coffee
beans that had been brought here
by Mr.. Barrow from southern
Georgia. The crop was harvested
some days ago and Mr.. Barrow
had a lot Of the grain parched
and made into coffee and mum
Der Of citizens were invited to
sample it. We can truthfully
state that we were agreeably sur
prised with its fine flavor. In fact
had we not known that it had
been grown right here we would
never have perceived the differ
ence between it and some Of the
favored brands. 1t is the inten-
ton Of both Mr.. Barrow and Mr..
Bryant to replant the entire crop
next season and then afterwards
place it on the market. Within
a few years it is more than prob
able this coffee bean will be
grown by a number of our farm
ers. 1t grows prolificly and is
easily harvested.

Mr.. William s. Campbell of
New Orleans, and formerly of our
City was a business visitor in
New iberia on Wednesday. His
mission here was to interest
Mayor Sealv and the Commission
Council in establishing two or
three government stores here un-
til the supply now in the hands
of the government has been sold
to the people. The idea is to sell
these goods plus the freight and
handling, so as to put them within
the reach of everybody as was
done when Mr.. Winters had IL
full supply Of these goods. AT
some near future time an adver-
tisement will appear in these col
umns making known who will be
the government agents.

Monroe is to have a million and
half dollar paper mill if the re-
port be confirmed that we heard
last Thursday. The mill will be
erected by Kansas City capitalists
who closed for $4,000 acres OF
pine and gum timber this week.
If the project of building
our proposed canal to Lake
Fausse Pointe would be an as

citizens of New iberia could also
encourage another mill to locate
here There are thousands OF
acres of willow. gum and other
wood materials in the swamps that
could be easily 'boated into New
iberia with a small waterway at
fordinq such means of transpor
tation. This material is bound tC
be sought after in due course Of
time and it behooves our citizens
for this and numerous other rea
sons to get busy and bring thi'
much talked Of project to a reall
.ation. The Chamber Of Com
merce, some time since, endeav
ored to impress upon our citizens
the great value Of a waterway Of
this kind and it even went so faI
rs TO have committees to raise
money for surveys. This was &C
eomplished but it seems there arr
several obstacles that have to bt
~omoved before a tax could b.
voted. This, together with tn,
numerous acreage that could b'
drained in the vicinity of the pro
posed canal make it imperative
that this moyemnet be pushed al
rapidly as possible.
