Breaks Down.

In the midst Of debate on the tax
bill yesterday afternoon Senator Hef-
lin of Alabama was forced to take the
floor Of the Senate rather unexpect-
edly. when one of the legs of his
chair gave way.
The chair went down so gradually
that the Senator was not injured and
only few of his colleagues sitting
nearby were aware OF the incident.
Senator King, Democrat, of Utah was
delivering his speech advocating Ger.

the time.

CRv LEWTs PENWELLl

TrNHE whole number of sheep in
the country is on the increase
Il because of the comparatively re-
cent development of the farm flock
mOvement-that is, the running Of
sheep in numbers up to 200 head on
farms in pastures.
Of the total amount Of wool used
in the United States, from the fin
est which goes into the most deli
cate fabrics, to the cOarsest which
goes into carpets, about One-half is
grown in this country and the re-
naming half is imported. NOtwith-
standing all the changing conditions
and the constantly icnreasing am
cunt of wool used, this has been the
condition for several decades. Re
Gently. however, a change is being
brought about through a rather sur
iOus combination of circumstances
which bids fair to increase substan-
TALLY the total amount of wool grown
in the United States and its outlying
territory. There are several causes
which are bringing about this some
what radical change. Prices for
both wool and lambs are high and N
all probability will remain so for an
lnQGtlnlEG time III Cu6 luCuAC 4AOAO =
are certain sections Of the middle
west and west whic Knight be best
described as our crop sectiOns-that
is, wheer they have grown one crop
particularly wheat-until the fertil-
ity of an originally rich soil has fin
ally become impoverished and the
farmers in those localities, attracted
by high prices for wool and lambs,
are stocking up with farm flOcks,
partly for the profit from the sheep
and partly to build up a rundown
condition of the soil. The develop
ment of sweet clover in recent years
has also contributed as much as any
other one thing to the increase in
the number of farm flOcks. 1t was
only a few years ago that it was
considered a nuisance weed. En-
ersOn many years ago said, with his
usual hopefulness "a weed is a plant
the virtues of which have not yet
been discovered" Because its virtues
have been discovered it has auto

and thus reducing the prices. And
it does look as if with this recent de-
velOpment that within the next few
years the United States would come
more nearly to the point of supply
ing it's own needs for wool.
In same instances the sheep are
put out on a share basis; that is,
they are owned by some concern or
ganized for the purpose, which
places them with the farmers to be
cared for, generally in numbers of
200 or less, depending on the size
and character of the farm. The US
ual division of profits is that the
wool and increase are equally divid-
ed between the owner and the farm
er. In the very nature of the trans
action this can only be a temporary
arrangement because by saving his
half of the increase the farmer
would soon be able to own his own
flock and get all the profits instead
of dividing them, but it is wonder
fully helpful in getting him started.
In other cases, matters are so or
ganized that substantial credit is ex-
tended to the prospective farm flock
owner so that he can borrow on sew
eral years time a large part OF the
purchase price of sheep.
In still other cases, of course, the
sheep are purchased outright and
fully paid for at the time of pur-
chase.
When sheep are run in bands or
the range in the usual way they are
handled in the western range states
there is required generally on the av
erage of about four acres to tht
sheep to maintain them all the yea,
around. A good stand of sweet clio
yer or alfalfa will take care Of farm

will eat on an average of about fOU
