Sheep shearing in Australia.

Shearers in Australia are paid by the number of sheep they shear, but the ranch helpers are paid by the week. Averaging everything, from young wethers which are hard to old ewes, which are easy, a good man will shear about % to 100 sheep a day. The actual record is 327 sheep shorn by Queensland shearer in nine hours. And other big records have been made. But that was probably years back with the ''bi6des, when the fieeces were five-pound and siX-pound, and not nine pound and ten-pound, as they are to- day.
