Profits of Sheep Husbandry. L. A. Green, of Gallatin, Tenn., gives the Tennesseean the following interesting state ment of his experience in sheep husbandry this season; "From 240 ewes I sold 224 lambs for the sum of $1,219.35, or $5 per head. I have 55 lambs left, worth at a fair price $3 per head, or $165. I sold the wool for $267.80, making in all $1,652.15, say in round numbers $1,650 from the lambs and wool. I picked out 46 barren ewes and sold them the first of March for $5.50 each, making $115 profit, which added to the above amount makfs the nice little sum of $1,765.00 Now, I turned theso sheep on my wheat the 1st of December. I have not fed them a grain of anything. I took them off my wheat the 10th of March. The lust piece of wheat I grazed will make twenty five bushels to the acre, and it would have made more but it was badly damaged by the worms. Now, I don’t think my wheat was materially injured by grazing, and yet my whole lantb crop was raised on wheat. I am sorry to soy the interest lias declined ma terially in the last three years, Give us a good dog law, and sheep on every farm in Sumner county, and you will see more profit from this than any other kind of stock in the county; besides a great advantage in cleaning out weeds and briars on the farm.” C ATARR H( rcUoffromuao BASIS I, B.
