THIS IS THE PROPER WAY TO SHEAR A SHEEP The pictures, with C*„'� printed instructions Rea. % se illustrate and describe briefly a system of shear- ing sheep that has been developed by the thou- sands of professional shearers of America and Australia. White trot mettlgca•" lions in the directing of the strokes taken with the shear are made by differ" ent shearers, the beginner should follow the instruc- tions alis+closety as possible.. The sheep is here shown as it is being finished. Shearer, if he wishes, can drop onto his right knee, but sheep's head should be held over against its. right side, and hind leg kept straight by pressing hand in flank as shown. As men- tioned before, hind leg should never be pulled out for shearing. If this is done the sheep will start to kick. With leg held straight as shown in this picture slj.ep cannot yank les back against comb teeth. This picture shows how the shearer has put the sheep in position for shearing right hind leg byraising its head and moving his feet still further back to let sheep settle down on to its left side. In shearing the right hind leg. strokes should start near the back bone and run well out on leg. Aeshearing continues towards 'tail, shearer lets sheep down flat on its left side and takes posi- tion shown in next picture. As this picture shows, the sheep has gradually been brought to a nearly upright posi. tion again as shoulder is being shorn. Sheep's head is lying down on its left side, which curves its body stretching skin tight where shearing is to be done. Shearer con- - , tines with strokes from near the back around across right side, with sheep in this position until wool is removed down aide to right hind leg. As last stroke is being made on side shearer should raise sheep's head letting its body down on side, Set sheep up squarely on its rump, your feet close to the-heep's body. Grasp sheep firmly between knees. Have pedestal of the machine two feet to right and a little back. Be- gin eat point of brisket, making strokes downward. In this posi- tion never allow sheep's head to fall back between your legs. After shearing brisket, grasp sheep's right fore leg, pulling up well, at same time press- ing in with left knee. This curves sheep's body to left in which position three or bap four strokes should be run down from under h loosely sheep's right fore leg to flank. These strokes open a with starting place for strokes across ki belly. The sheep'', right foreleg is folded and held under your right knee, leaving sheep further k onits rump. Remove belly wool with strokes nearly straight around acrossbelly.iiofd shear oose y in the hand, with rear end well out from sheep's body to bring points of comb - teeth down on sheep's skin. Make strokes carefully. wi comb cutting full width. Be sure that teeth of comb are down on sin as stroke s ended, to overcome the necessity of making second cuts.Continuestrokes across belly until all belly wool is removed, when it can he kept sopa. rate ,rom fleece wool if de-, sired. As last long stroke is taken up back ending near sheep's right ear. bring your right foot forward close up to sheep's back even with shoulders, leaving sheep lying flat on side and Without lifting sheep more than to raise its head. This picture shows the position hav- ing slloriefight aide"of sheep's head and ready to sheat right side of neck with strokes running downto shoulder. As the neck is beingshorn, move both feet back, first one, then the other in short steps holding sheep firmly between legs and rolling it into a more upright position as you shear towards the shoulder. Now earn sheep a Tittle to tight and lean it further back on its rump to shear inside of right hind leg. Hold sheep's left fore leg under arm With palm of hand towards sheep's right bind foot, graap a handful of skin and wool on iron aide o1 sheep's hind leg at flank ioint. Twat this wool and skin witharm held rigidll• straight to keep sheep's hind leg in position for shearing. Neter ho5d's]leep s bind legs .far show+ lag by grasping the foot to pull it out straight. All strokes is Shearing tate inside of the right hind legshould be from the foot in towards the tail. • When shearing inside of right hind leg is finished, roll sheep over a little on right hip and shear inside of left hind leg with strokes out towards foot. This completes cretebrng out. Now the sheep is finished, note the un- broken blanket of wool and the smooth appearance of the sheep. 'No ridges, me gashes or outs. By follow- ing this method you. ewill alwaye get the best results. The position of the sheep is somewhat changed. Left foot is moved back from the sheep a very little but left leg is still in front of both thesheep'sfore legs and foot well in undeethe sheep's shoulder. Right foot has been placed outsideGboth the sheep's hind legs and the sheep is held Mat on its side by knee resting lightly on its hip. Have the sheep's right shouldef resting en your Left foot and press lightly on the hip with right knee, at the same time forcing the sheep's head down nearly to the floor, to put sheep in position for shearing the rest of side and one or two strokes beyond back bone with long strokes the whole length of sheep's back and neck. The leg is kept straightby pressing in flank•the same as is shown inicture No.. 4. Now put sheep in position for shearing outside of left hind'leg by moving feet back to allow shaep to be partly on its right side 3d this position strokescan be run from leftlhind fbot in to flank. After two or three of these strokes are taken. ending atflank, all laterstrokessoaid run in on leg then curve down, ending hear backbone above tail base. Continue these strokes until left bind leg acid laparecleaned. Sheep 19 how In position for open- ing up neck and is shown after a few strokes have been made. For this Position, straighten sheep on its n,mp, at same time pladeright foot between sheep's hind legs. Tarn sheep with foota little more to the right. Press right knee &saly on sheep's brisket between fore legs, left foot and leg below knee being lnatinfront of sheep's back bone. With left hand on sheep's law as shown. bend sheep's neck around•left knee and open up neck with stroke from brisket to law and one or two strokes on right side of sheep's neck. Sheep's head is rolled up as shearing proceeds to turn Seek ao shearing can continue on to left side of sheep's neck. As left aide of neck is sheared, continue strokes on up to shear leftjaw, sided face and top of head g ear estop of woc� head la is i sheatCW ,�hc�,q?1" Here the sheep is • in position forehear- ing left side.
