Sheep for wool.
An Austrian expert is reported as
giving the following advice on judg-
ing wool on live sheep, The finest and
softest is always on the shoulders of
the sheep. An expert, in juclgkng
sheep; always looks at the wool on the
shoulders first. Always assuming that
the wool to be inspected is really fine
we first examine the shoulders as a
part where the finest wool is to be
found, This we take as a standard,
and compare it with the wool from the
ribs, the. thigh, the ramp and the
shoulder parts, the nearer the wool
from the yarious portions of the ani-
mal approaches the standard • the bet.
ter, .First, we:scnutinize the fineness,
and if the result is satisfactory we
pronounce the fleece in respect to fine-
ness vary "even." • Next, we scrutinize
the length of the stable, and we find
that the- .wool on the ribs, thigh and
back, approximates reasonably in
length to that of our standard, we
again.cleclare the fleece, as regards
length of staple, "true and even:' `"4Ve
next satisfy ourselves as to the density
of the fleece, and we do this by closing
the hand Upon a portion of the rump
and loin wool, these points being us
ually the Most faulty, 'If this : again
gives satisfaction we designate all the
wool "even to density,', Now to sum•
marine these separate'
;examinations:.
if the fleece is nearly of equal length
on shoulder, rib and back,'and denstyh
on shoulder and across the loins, we
conclude that we have a perfect sheep
for producing valuable wool
