Nonetheless, Mr.. Bader said,

THAT is correct" Mr.. Bader

Sheep Outlook Good
For Virginia Farmers

Virginia farmers looking for q
livestock enterprise to bolster
their farm income Will do well
to consider Sheep George A Al
len. Jr.. associate animal husband
man at VPI, says no livestock
enterprise open to Virginia offers
as much return per dollar in
vested as does a flock of sheep
Sheep do not require a high
capital investment and fit well
with nearly all farm operations
Another talking point for them,
Allen says. is that since sheep
numbers in the nation are low.
the market outlook for lambs and
wool is good Natural farm con-
ditionS in Virginia are practically
ideal for spring lamb production.
Although a good pasture pro-
gram is an essential first step
with sheep, no large capital mn
VeStment is necessary for barns or
other equipment For many far
mers the cost Of the flock has
been returned by the lamb and
wool crop Of the first year
One Of the more common COM
binationS is beef cattle and sheep,
because the two together make
better use Of pasture. Sheep will
eat most of the weeds that grow
in pastures, and cattle will craze
grasses sheep viii leave.
Since most Of the lamb crop
can be marketed by June 49,
livestock numbers are reduced BY
the time hot weather comes and
pastures slow up This means the
heavy surplus spring pasture
growth is used and marketed to
good advantage.

Teaching by example is not
confined to human beings alone.
Most dumb animals learn by ex-
ample too. Dog trainers have
found that youngsters learn much
quicker bby watching older dogs
at work. Start him off with an
older dog" is sound advice given
many amateur trainers. This par
licularly applies to hounds, but it
also applies to other sporting
breeds
Henry p. Davis, sporting dog
editor Of Sports Afield ntaga-
zine, tells OF one trainer who
always sets an example for his
pupils before learning tn cir
training. They are staked out
and allowed to watch while he
puts finished retriever through
his brush up lessons. The trained
dog is praised and rewarder at
every stey Before long the young
dogs, to whom the trainer has paid
no attention whatever, begins to
show eagerness to get in to the
game themselves.
They seem to catch on to what
the trainer is trying TO teach
much quicker when given an
opportunity to see another dos
~, oo+io,, and c,1o bai,,r rpu-a ri
ed for good work. This trainer
says visual education" makes
his work much less arduous
Many a young dog has been cured
of gun shyness in the same way
In almost every birddog train
ing establishment you can find a
staid old pointer or setter that
is the trainers "right-hand man.
Other breeds of dogs have been
used in bird dog training too.
The late Charles Babcock put
the talents of an old-fashioned
shepherd named Pal to good use.
The dog was his constant COM
panion. trotting along beside his
horse when on training workouts
in the field. and he was always
a big attraction at field trials.
Pal was trained to find bolt
ing dog and to herd" him back
to the trainer. If the dog refused
to 60 he would give him mild
roughing up If he still refused,
Pal would bay allowing Bah
cock to locate the miscreant
through his barking. Pal was
never allowed to engage in a Sc
we're fight, and after one rough
ing up. he usually had the situa-
ton under control After work
out Babcock frequently returned
a young dog to the kennel by
coupling him to Pals collar and I
ordering him to take his charge
home.
Pal was finally barred from at
tending field trials because he
trotted out of the gallery one day
and pointed covery of quail that
a contending dog had previously
pointed-and left.

Letters To Editor
Let's Plant 200

Editor of Herald:
The suggestion made recently
by Mrs. j. II. Cocks and endors-
ed by you in an editorial, sug-
costing the planting of 200 trees
in Prince Edward county during
this bicentennial year seems TO
me to be an excellent one.
The town of Farmvile is a beau
full little city and the trees in
the residential sections make II
one of the outstandingly beautiful
towns Of Virginia. However. l
believe the citizens could we'll

at least a hundred trees during

checked are in error fast rather than slow.
In other words speedometers show SIS mile
an hour when the car is really travelling
only so miles per hour. We would suggest
that speedometers be checked for accuracy.
Especially do we suggest this to those
who are members of the $22.35 Club Chose
drivers who have been fined S22.35 for
speeding) They are vulnerable and if con-
vcted of speeding twice within year, their
permit will be suspended for 60 days Be
ing member of this club, we are quite
conscious of speed and cops and many
cars still pass us on the road when we are
going our SIS mile an hour rate.
Take advice from us--you had better

old standard railroad rate with those of the
alfilnes today. AS a result, several rail-
roads have instituted what they call fam
lily fare plan,
This plan allows a wife, when travelling
with her husband, to get round-trip fare
tor the cost of a one-way fare. and also
allows children under twenty-five wears of
age to buy round-trip fares for the price
OF a one-way fare. Children under twelve
years are allowed a roundtrip fare for the
price Of only one-way ticket. In addition,
children under five years of age are allowed
to accompany their parents at no extra
charge
Thus the air age is bringing the cost
OF railroad transportation down-some-
thing which should have happened long
ago, though the lack of real competition
has prevented it.

Competitive Prices

ALTHOUGH most railroads do not make
their money hauling passengers. some
Of them do, and it is interesting to note
how much competition airlines have been
giving these roads recently As a result. all
sorts Of family rate combinations and re-
ductions are being offered by railroads
today
One can readily see why such rates are
necessary. if the roads are to continue to
compete with airline travel. Since several
airlines already offer eight-hour flights be
tween New York and Los Angeles, at
price near 500, the railroads have found
themselves at disadvantage.
The same trip by train consumes sew
eral days and the cost is very much high
er. The man carrying his family to the
