Mr. Scott Before the Woolgroiver'8
Convention.
Richard Scott, of Milwaukie, Or., road
a paper an "Raising Early Lambs for
Market." Mr. Scott held that more
money might be realized from this source
than from any oflier manner of produc
ing mutton.
He said in part :
"In Western Oregon to raiso earlj
lambs tor the market, we breed the ewes
In January or February, and feed them
well, or put them on good grass, before ,
putting the rams with tlie ewes. . This
insures more lambea and stronger ones.
I do not feed much grain to ewes before
lambing or for a few days afterwards.
Later, I give a liberal grain ration. The
common range ewe of Eastern Oregon
bred to a Dorset, Shropshire, Lincoln,
Oxford or Cotswold ram, and only one
lamo produced, the lamb should gain five
pounds per week from birth, provided,
thee re has plenty of green feed. At"
two months old, the lamb should be tit
for market, and at present prices, should
bring $3 60 in jfrrtland. The same
ized lamb in New York would realize
$5to$0. ' " ,
There is more money to be made
from these than an. other class of
lambs. In early mutton, if fat, there is ,
tiwayB plenty of lean meat, for the rea
on that, in growing .sheep, if fed well,
the muscle is rapidly developed. The
presence of plenty of lean . meat in mut
ton sheep iBessential. The trouble with
most slieep seat to market la that
there is not sufficient lean meat, ami.
when ready for the table, it takes half a
dozen chops to make one meal for a
hungry man. ,
"It is early mutton lambs that are
winning the market, and teaching the
American people what is good mutton.
nlways bear In mind that it costs tbrse-
fourths less to raise a lamb to weigh 40
pounds at 10 weeks old than it does to
raise a 40-pound lamb at six mouths'
old. It is the early maturing sheep that
pays the breeder. I favor the Dorset is
the best early-lamb producer, although
l am not prejudiced against the other
mutton breeds, for the reason that they
are all good."

trif. A big enterprise for tlie manufuctur ,
of cedar lumber has just been started at
Brown's new sawmill, which is locate
on Cedar creek, not far from the Sandy
postollice., Mr. Brown recently located
his mill there, which is the finest of
them all in this section, being a dupli
cate of the Standard Box Factory mill
in EaBt Portland, and capable of cutting
nearly 50,000 feet of lumber per day. It
is situated in the heart of a cedar forest
and ie running exclusively on that kind
of timber, Mr. Brown has made a con"
tract with Insley's planing mills of Port
land to supply l,5UO,C00 feet ol cedar
lumber at a price of from $30 to $30 per
thousand feet, according to quality, and
has teams on the road hauling it the en
tire distance of over 30 milen. Ho pays
his teamsters t0 a thousand and it takes
them two days to make a round trip.
They haul from 3000 to 2500 feet at each
load. The lumber is manufactured into

ket owing to tho superior quality oi tlie
material. It is a great surprise to many
that such an excellent body of cedar
timber has been left standing so long, so
near Portlund, as tho tract covers sev
eral hundred acreit and will keep the
mill running for at least two votirs. Mr.
Brown bus recently secured 300 acres of
excellent fir timber in anticipation of
having to move his mill, and will com
mence on it when his supply ot cedar is
exhausted. Ho employs a force of about
30 men, U , loltl, ami Is considered one
of tlie most enterprising mill men in
this region.
