SHEEP HUSBANDRY IN CANADA.
Coincident with a number 01 other
Active agencies designed to revive the
.beep-ratbrng industry in Canada,
tbere has been loud by the live stock
branch of thalletepartment of Agricul-
ture a new alio• of that ezbauetive
:end practical tr etiee "8 h e e p
Husbandry in Canada" which received
such a warm reaeptioo home four
years ago. This wori of 128 pages,
which constitutes s report as well as
a helpful bulletin of inatructioe,
coven the history and condition of the
sbeep industry in every Province,
pointing out tbe weak pelota aod of-
fering useful information for the
guidance of older shepherds as well as
those who are just beginning, or de•
sire to begin, raising mutton and wool.
in tiers work the author., who is e
trained sheep man, brings ont clearly
the great advantages of keeping sheep
from the dual standpoint of direct
profit in cash returns, and the even
in :re important indirect one of cleane
farms and better crops. Then them
is a special section, "From the Block to
the Table," designed to popularise tbe
consumption of mutton ' and lamb.
Other sections deal with wed destruc-
tion by sheep, diseases, wool, housing,
enemies, breads and breeding, feeds
and feeding, and other important
matters. Under "The Industry in the
Different Provinces" some startling
new facts, concerning the profits mads
from sheep, are brought out. it is
shown that a flock of about 160 ewes
worth i8 each, after housing, feeding
and care were charged against them,
gave in 1911a profit of more than MO.
This occurred on a Manitoba wheat
term.
A special feature of this bulletin ie
its many beautiful illustrations in
sepia tints, many of which are worth
framing. Aissue has been
printed to be supplied free to those
who applyfor it to the Pu`alications
