COOPERATION IN
SHEEP BREEDING
HOW FOUR FARMERS IN HAM
BLEN COUNTY WORKED TO.
GEATHER FOR THEIR HERDS.

Recently four wide-awake young
farmers in Hamblen county decided
that they were not satisfied with the
kind of sheep that they were produc-
ing so they made up their minds that
they would do something to better the
situation not only for themselves but
for the county as whole.
To start with they agreed to coop.
crate in purebred breeding project.
they determined the breed they want
ed, which was Hampshires. An expe.
rienced sheep man was selected to
visit one of the best Hampshire herds
In Virg mia and select eight ewes and
one ram. Seven of these ewes cost
500 each, and one was secured for
%50. A ram which drew third prize
ut the Interna tional Live Stock Show
at Chicago in 1919 was purchased for
sl75. The sheep were shipped to Nor.
ristown and there the men met and
two ewes each and one of the men
was selected TO take the entire lot and
keep them with the ram during the
breeding season and up until the eoun.
ty fair at which time they will be ex.
l;hiteG together and then each owner
will take his two ewes to his farm.
Next year they will all be brought TO.
gether again for breeding.
