WITH FLOCK SHEEP
DAMAGE TO EWES OF JOHN ,.
SHAW, OF GOODWIN, EsTiMAT. 4
ED AT OVER $40.
lFrom fridays Daily Herald.}

(From Fridays Daily Herald}
Further evidence, Il it were needed,
of the sheep protection law was az
forded last week when worthless dogs
got into the flock of sheep Of John b.
Shaw, prominent farmer OF the God
win section and wrought havoc. M. u.
Allen, the veteran stock buyer and
probably the best judge OF sheep val.
ues in the county, was one of the
neighbors summoned to estimate the
damages and he placed<it at $40.
But said Mr.. Allen to a representa-
tive of The Herald, this does not COW
or what Mr., Shaw lost. In our esti-
mate of Che loss suffered we did not
take into account the fact that. the
raid of the dogs had made wild fools
of many ewes and that this was done
right in the midst of the Landing sea-
son. They will never do as we'll as
they would have done but for this
scare and the mortality of the lambs
viii be greater. SO that $40 does not
represent what Mr.. Shaw lost"
