Excerpt from The Management of Sheep on the Farm It has been estimated that sheep will eat 90 per cent of all trouble some weeds. They are, in fact, commonly used in cleaning up weeds from fields, fence rows, road sides, stubble fields, and corn fields. The common belief among, farmers is that weeds eaten by sheep are so broken up in the digestive processes that the seeds will not germinate after passing through the body as in the case of other live stock. However, weeds are rarely permitted to go to seed if enough sheep are' turned in the field while the weeds, are young and tender.

Excerpt from Sheep Management: A Handbook for the Shepherd and Student There are several books on sheep husbandry written by good authorities on the subject which have been of great aid to flockmasters. However, there is need for a book written in simple, compre hensible: every-day language dealing with the practical problems of sheep husbandry. This book has been prepared not only to serve the shepherd in his every-day work, but also to meet the require ments of the student in the classroom. Numerous inquiries from flocko'wners from many sections'of the country for information rela tive to sheep husbandry and the troubles connected with the industry, the requests of many friends and students, and especially the urgent requests of Dean Henry and later of Dean Russell, both of the College of Agriculture of the University of vviscon sin, have induced the author to prepare this book. Judging from many letters recei'ved, not only the beginners with sheep, but also some of the more experienced men, often have many difficulties.

Excerpt from Management and Feeding of Sheep That sheep husbandry in America is not yet beyond the threshold of possible advancement cannot be gainsaid, and that such is the fact is exceedingly unfortunate for American agriculture. Great Britain alone has nearly half as many sheep as all the United States. The reason why the industry thus languishes cannot be discussed here. This book has been written in the hope that it may aid in some degree in giving this exceedingly important industry that place which it should occupy in the agriculture of this continent. Several excellent works on sheep have been written in America, but in none of these has the discussion been confined to feeding and management. In all of them the breeds and breeding have been more or less dwelt upon, and just to that extent has the space been curtailed that could have been given to discussing feeding and management. No work has been written previously which dwells solely upon these phases of sheep husbandry. That there is room for such a work will be conceded by all who have thought upon the question. In writing this treatise, the Author has aimed to give in orderly sequence and in simple language the subjects discussed and everything pertaining to the discussion of the various phases of these. The effort has also been made to discuss both feeding and management with such fullness and comprehensiveness as would not be inconsistent with conciseness of statement. The breeds of sheep, the general subject of breeding and the general principles that relate to feeding are not dwelt upon, as these have been discussed at some length in works previously written by the Author.

Excerpt from Keeping Sheep for Profit This Correspondence Course on Keeping Sheep for Profit describes conditions and Opportunities in New York State conforming so closely to those in many parts of Canada, that the text is reprinted for use among Canadian Soldiers, without change.to be a profitable one. Sheep husbandry should have a profitable place in the management of many eastern farms. Good sheep were common on eastern farms a generation ago, when in Spite of lower prices they proved worth keeping. With the passing of the western range competition, there is a growing interest in sheep for many run-down farms in the East. Success with sheep consists of more than buying a flock and placing it on the farm. To be successful, the shepherd must know the habits and characteristics of his flock and be quick to interpret the unfailing signs of disorder or health. The ability to look beneath the exterior for evidences of thrift or disorder is essential with all livestock, and constitutes one of the essentials of a successful shepherd.
