In the after- noonselocal sheep men usually brought specimens ot their flocks which were used to demonstrate the handling of seep, and to provide material for die - cession of market types, and to show proper methods in shearing and slaughtering. On the second morning opportunity was taken to discuss external parasites and to explain how these.may be over- come. Docking and °the? necessary sheep surgery was also taken up.
