Sheep Raising Is
Making Comeback
John Foster Says
Professor at State College and
Former Ashe Native Dis
cuSSeS the Situation.

There has been an acute
awakening of interest in sheep
production in North Carolina
within the last year, reports DR..
John E. Foster of the State Col
lege Animal Husbandry Depart
ment, and a native Of Ashe coun-
ty.
He says that whereas sheepmen
formerly experienced difficulty
in placing their surplus ewes and
frequently had to send valuable
breeding animals to the butcher,
now all available ewes are taken.
In addition, western ewes are be-
ing shipped into the State to meet
the demand.
Why the increased interest? "A
number of factors have contribu-
ted" DR.. Foster replies. "The sub
stantial profits derived from
most flocks for the past five years
have had an effect. The change
in our farming system has also
been conducive to sheep produc-
ton"
"The reduction in cotton, to-
The Skyland post. [volume] (West Jefferson, N.C.) 193?-1988, 1940-10-17

bacco and other row crop acre
age has released more land for
pastures and feed crops. The i'm
provement of pastures through
proper fertilization and manage
ment has been almost as impor-
tant."
"Then too, the sheep organiza-
tons, establishments of parasitic
control methods, improved breed
ing, and controlled marketing
have been major factors. The CO.
operatives have been instrument
tai in promoting interest, in OBJ
tanning protection from the dog
menace, and in providing and en-
couraging better breeding and
dipping to control paratises."
DR.. Foster said that, in most
cases, sheep production is with
grade ewes and pure-bred NUT
ton-type rams. Spring lambs are
the chief product and wool is a
by-product. It is conducted on a
farm flock, rather than a large
scale commercial basis, with 10
to 80 ewes per farm being the
average. eyes, sheep production
is returning to North Carolina,
but not on the haphazard basis OF
DID," the animal husbandman
concluded.

Miss Myrick Instructed Cast

Cute little clinging-vine, but

At the same time the accent ex-

opens next week at the Parkway.

Electricity Put
ToWork On Farm

The identification of rura
sections of North Carolina ha:
brought light and modern con
veniences to thousands of NORTH
Carolina farm homes within the
past few years.
"Now," says D. E. Jones, rural
identification specialist of N. &
State College, farmers are learn
ing how electricity can be put to
work to tighten burdens and eco
nomically operate heating and re-
frigeration units on the farm"
He named the operation of
breeders for chicks, dairy equip
ment, and feed grinders, and the
heating of plant beds are ways
that farmers are using their new
found source of power and heat.
Electric breeders are becom-
ing popular, and among those
who have expressed themselves
as thoroughly satisfied with this
modern equipment are j. A.
Rowland of Stanly County, John
Workman of Cleveland county,
and Mrs. J. G. Barber Of Rowan
County. Mr.. Rowland figured his
cost at slightly more than one
cent per chick despite the severe
winter just past.
P. A. Irwin, large>retail milk
producer of Mecklenburg Coun-
ty, told Specialist Jones that his
total electric bill for the many
Jobs performed in his dairy is no
more than was his cost for ice
alone before he installed electrl-
cal equipment.
Ralph Scott of Alamance Coun-
ty. and Roy and Francis Siegman
of Catawba County are enthused
over their new feed grinding
mills operated by electric motors.
Mr.. Scott says: Il am convinced
that the feed grinding problem
on my farm is solved through the
use of this mill. can grind near
ly go bushels Of ear corn an hour
and use only five kilowatt hours
of electricity"
Jones also reports that Ira and
High Bailey in Rowan County
are using electricity to pump wa
ter for the irrigation of their
truck crops, and to heat plant
beds to start lettuce, pepper and
tomato plants. "A few farmers
are also using electricity-heated
sweet potato plant beds" Jones
stated.

State support of public schools should not
