Thla gives the rais ing of sheep a new appeal In older fanning ureas. The muln factor In determining the cost of other animal products la the value of grain and mill feeds; pastur age and roughage are Important, but both beef and pork require a consider able use of concentrated feeds. The production of Iambs and mutton re quire a very much smaller proportion of fat and therefore a smaller use of grain than Is required In these other meat animals. Sheep are able to get a good portion of their feed from rough, permanent grass pasture and at the aame time keep It clean of weeds. This Increases rather than depresses the cattle-carrying capacity of the pas tore. As sheep require comparative ly little of the owner's labor, the labor cost per dollar's worth of wobl or lambs Is lower than In any other farm animal product. While the labor re quired In raising sheep Is not heavy It is continuous and somewhat differ ent from that required in the csre of other stock. Many of the ohstscles thst have hindered the progress of sheep rais ing in Intensive farming districts have been or are being overcome. The com petition given sheep growing on farms by the production of sheep on lower priced range land Is being removed. A second but only temporary obstacle to a quick Increase In sheep produc tion lies In the fact that comparative ly few farmers are as well quulificd to care for sheep as for other classes of stock. The needs and huhlts of sheep differ from those of horses, and swine, but present no problems thst will not be met by Interested study and observations supported by satis factory returns.

Germany's Oldest Railroad. The oldest railroad to Germany Is one of the shortest In the world. The Lodfrlf railway, doooeetlng the cities of Furth and Nurenburg, is Josl three und three -quarters miles long, and has never been extended. It was conceived by Johannes Bcharrefi wealthy hop merchant, tb Philadelphia Inquirer teils us. The plan was first puMishe., in 1V!J, ami M King Ludwtg iavond IU construction it was named after him. There are about iM employees. The railroad carries about 4,U0U.0O0 passengers a year. Good teams mean more to the up-to-date farmer than Is generally be lieved. Without Rood teams It Is a very difficult matter to do good farm ing. But at present prices farmers may hesitate to buy heavy draft horses and mules, notwithstanding the fact that they are after all economical. It would he a good plan to get some heavy mares und raise colts for sale ir to take the place of lighter animals and old teams on the farm.
