First get a large acreage of alfalfa. Be sure you have plenty of hay , ( alfalfa ) and grain. Buy say 100 ewes in the early fall , join with your neigh bors , and buy a car load and dis tribute them out in bunches ol one or two hundred lots. Don't be in a hurry to get a lot ot ex perience and be a big sheepman , chances are you will lose , but commence small , bread the ewes for early lambs. Give them plenty of range so they can gather up all the roughness and clean the farm of weeds. Feed enough alfalfa hay and grain during the winter so they will gain in flesh and be in fine condition at lamb ing time. Then keep crowding them along with a view of fat tcning both ewes and lambs. You should have a fine fat bunch of sheep and lambs by early sum mer which , together with the wool clip will give you three crops from your investment , one crop of wool and two of mutton and all within eight to ten mouths time. There are three things to insure your Msucccss Buying weight , plenty of feed and proper care. The market you will have to take your chan ces on. The first ( three is your business andI ; believe you wil and a good market. I hope to try it another year when' I ge more-land in alfalfa. Willis Cadwell.
