GOOD TREATMENT FOR SHEEP Real Value of Animal Is in Wool, Lambs and Mutton—Weed Destruction It Only Incidental. It la often argued that sheep should bo kept by farmers because they live in lean pasture* and are useful In ridding the fields ol weeds, getting much of their living from what other stock wUI not eat and that the farm is much better rid of. That I* aU tn that should not be the main for keeping sheep, in fart, weed 4» ■ (ruction should be only an Incident. The value of the *heep Is In wool, lamb* and mutton. To do their best In these line*, sheep need and should have as good palm cat as other domestic animals. Sheep may lire on pastures that ould not sustain horses or cattle, but they will not do their beat on snrh pastures. They must eat and thus do«roy weed* and even sprout* and bramble*, that other stock would not touch, but such growths do not make their best feed.
