that to get the best results, is to breed the lamb in the middle of July, as 1t takes five days leas than five months, for the lamb to drop after the eve has been served by the ram. The first of December for this section is an ideal time for the lamb to drop. Now don't understand me to say that a later lamb is not in many cases good one, other things considered. But mem tion the ideal lamb. This should give an eighty pound lamb in early April, if little attention is given to the feed ing of the eve just before lambing and for about fifteen days after, in case she has good grazing. Fifteen days before and fifteen days after lambing to breed the eve will get good re- suits, for a full flow of milk is im- portaut to the starting of the. lamb. What you feed after this does not matter 50 much, so long as the eve is kept in q thrifty condition. Of course, to feed straight ahead until market ing time makes a better lamb, but the price of feed and other conditios, de- teFmineS whether it is most profitable. To get the best results from uniform breeding and to get the most uniform lambs it ia necessary to follow a few simple rules.

without taking the facts of his llfe into consideration, and that the description of Monticelli's early poverty and writ ten without malice and to explain to this generatioh pN the conditions of his creative exisfance.
 Thus is the right of the artist or sculptor, the poet or the novelist to d hard and bitter struggle judicially con firmed. There was never supposed to be any ignominy in honest poverty. Art with silver spoon in it's mouth was on the other hand, always viewed with sus. picion. Most of the adventure and TO- nance historically supposed to fill the life of the genius are the results of poverty.

That was while he was be- tween 30 and 10 years old. With the fan of the second empire he returned to his native town and passed the re- mainder of his days producing the works which, little as they sold for when they were fresh from his brush, ultimately became costly to degree that established his eminence.

rather q large increase in the rebuild ing of breeding flocke the past three years. Moormans again tell us that these six hundred millions of sheep are distributed over the world as follows i: North America, sixty millions; Canada and Mexico having twenty four mil lions, and the United States about thirty-six millions; South America has one hundred and twenty millions most ly in Argentine, Chile and Uruguay. One hundred and thirty millions are in Europe, the leading sheep growing countries being European Russia, Great Britain, European Turkey France, Spain and Austria Hungary. One hum tlred and fifteen million are in Asia, mostly Asiatic Turkey, Asiatic Russia and India: sixty millions in Africa, mostly in South Africa and Algeria 1; one hundred and fifteen millions in Oceanica Australia and New Zealand.

 to consider that this is pretty well
 distributed arrangement for idea ot how many sheep there are grown in Alabama, the Alabama Wool and Sheep Growers Association estimates the number running on the grasses of Alabama, little more than one hun tlred thousand head for the year of 1924, with room for three millions.
 We refer again to the report of Moormans that there are approximate three billions of pounds of wool grown in. the world annually. Of this amount Europe produces over eight hundred millions pounds ;Australia more than six hundred fifty-five mii- lions pounds; South America more than four hundred and eighty millions; {; North America more than three hun dred and five millions Asia more than two hundred and seventy millions, and Africa about two hundred and seven millions. The United States produces two hundred and seventy millions of pounds annually, and consumes or has demands for q little more than six hundred millions of pounds for domes- tic purposes. Ife we grow only two hundred and seventy millions of pounds of wool, and it takes six hundred mil. lions to furnish our needs it would seem, even to the uninterested, that there is room for the production in the United States. All we would have to do in order to sell double the amount of wool, were we to grow it, would be

hard conditionj gotten so by feeding for thirty days before service, with a grain feed, and very little roughage, in small pasture or lot, where he is forced to get plenty of exercise.
 Place the ewes in a corral at night, as they should be anyway, and at night place the rams with them. Early in the morning, get in among them and stir them around. Leave the ramAwith them for two hours more while 1t is still cool. Then take the ram out and place fin the small pen, turning the ewes out to pasture. Feed the ram and continue this method over period ot forty days after the rams first serve the ewes. Then remove the rams entirely. This should give the desired results of uniform rams. This method is not necessary with the breeding any where else for anything other than q spring lamb. A top lamb is one that is fat and weighs from sixty to eighty pounds, at marketing time. If he has quality and Is fat he is a top lamt on any market in the world. Com munity cooperative marketing of lambs is far the best method, and will enable the sellers to command more buyers and bring competition.
 Value of Wool.
 We might say that of all farming op- erations carried on. the sheep game was first to suffer the after-the-wal depression and were the first to regain a solid footing. Today the sheep have come back to normal, with all reason to believe they will never for great many years get down again,
 According to very reliable informa- ton, published by the Moorrhan Man ufacturins company, referred to above, there may be some very interesting facts brought to light. We all know that sheep produce mutton and lambs, for consumption or edible food, in com petition with the porker. poultry, fish, beef in it's various products, and the strictly yegeterian. These we know are competitors of the mutton and lamb. Wool has no competition.
 There are approximately six hundred million sheep in the world today, ac- cording to Moormans, while in 1921, according to other authorities, there were only about four hundred and forty millions, at the end of the year. How ever, the accuracy of these statements may or may not be varified, but it is safe to predict that there has been

DRIFTED 1,5OO MILES
Death Of A Ferry Pilot Recalls Arctic
 Adventure In 1871.

A thrilling Arctic exploit is recalled by the recent death of it's last survivor, Charles Kruger. In 1871 the Polaris left the Brooklyn navy yard bound for the North Pole. Just after arriving at Thank God Harbor, Greenland, Cap tain Hall died of a mysterious illness. Then the Polaris ran into a storm, was caught in the ice pack and sprang a leak.
 Orders were given to save the provi- sions by throwing them on the ice. Some of the crew got out to put the articles flung overheard at a safe dis tance from the ship which by it's ris- ing and falling motions, was riftins the ice.
 In the darkness of the night, with its blinding sleet, the party on the ice were separated from the Polaris. At dawn not A trace of the ship was to be seen. Not until 1873 was the group east adrift rescued. In these anxious months the ice foe on which they were marooned had drifted fifteen hundred miles. Mir. Kruger returned to New York after this adventure and served for more than thirty years as a pilot on a Thirty fourth street ferry.-New York Times.

Harm Artists Reputation
 When Paris court recently decided that an artist and three critics had done no harm to the reputation of Adolphe Montiecelli is assured to the artist one of his inalienable rights. Louis Monti- celli, cousin and heir of the famous impressionistic, painter, brought suit against Kees Van Dongen, an artist, and three critics, Henri Bapauze, Jean Desthieux and Camille Mauclair, on the ground that they had written and lectured about the life of Monticelli in way which was hot to the taste of his descendants.
 The defendants depicted the famous man as 50 poor in Marsilles during his youth as well as after his return from Paris that he was willing to crawl under any shed for refuge at night, while he peddled his paintings to the sailors in their restaurants for the few francs they were able to pay. It was oven said by them that Monticelli died destitute.
 It was to obtain satisfaction for these charges that his descendant brought suit. The court refused to allow dam ages on the ground that an artists work could not be considered historically
