A heavy decline in the number of sheep has taken place since 1910, ac- vording to the department of agricul ture. In that vear the number on farms as ascertained by the was 52,448,000; the estimate for Janu- ary 1, 1914, is 49,719.000, a decline of 3.4 per cent from 1913 and of 5.2 per cent from 1910 Among the causes that have con tributed to the diminution of number of sheep is the scarcity of labor re quired for their care, the high prices of sheep by expanding pasturage and for displacement dairying. deficient by dogs, the previously occupied by sheep, and the value of land The estimates of the department for the number of sheep on farms in the United States on January 1, 1914, show a decided decrease as compared with 1613, according to the department of Agriculture The apparent tendency toward a decline in the number sheep on farms been noted for some time and has caused sheep rais ing on be referred to as waning A here cerning nny their may Ag a farm has many sheep mal to a larger pounds of pacity to sidered, he the hog 1 return meat and wool as a go far keep flock per cent ines A time, cl has farms to industry the place in a word of agricult con. and practice COO sheep Uial not be out of place per advantages «¢, the sheep The ani 2 gain per 104 When his ea Con than ible cont animal distinet i8 a much more economical than the amount of feed consume feed steer, retirs eaten roughage Is more economical he sheep vields a ymical which the al an «007 bs def aeira product will oward cost of Sheep are prolif A farm t ft least 100 which does not indeed will fthout ex i! allow ed to ibbie fields aft and the cornfields aft case is Yyery poor 3 flock sheep on farn in ear it of weeds pense to range the er grain the owner lanes, the st 8 ont er Good for Mutton and Wool.

They are readily slaughtered. the meat can be kept without difficulty, it cuts up without waste in sizes whivh are convenient for the average family, and the meat ia nutritious, wholesome and palatable properly cooked The healthfulness of the sheep alone gives it front rank as a meatfood animal. Sheep rarely bave tubercu- losis or other diseases communicable to man The foregoing statements are axio- matic. If the sheep industry is so in. viting, why do the farmers seem to be showing a tendency to curtail sheep raising? There are probably three principal causes First — Intestinal parasites. prinel pally stomach worfus, cause serious RErown not & SCaven- even a useful is Py meat-food animals valine the av use on when dling, Raising sheep for wool alone does not pay on farms, and the at tempts of farmers to make it pay is undoubtedly largely responsible for i i and not as wool producers: the wool A by-product, as it should be In farm flocks.
