It is dangerous to permit them to graze upon land which has been previously very boavily stocked by older sheep, and upon wlU the clover or grass has sprung up again in dark graf4 luxuriance. Pasture land ia bigh condition, the result of liberal manuring, for feeding stock with oil cake, is often unsafe for young sheep wnion m sucu circumstances some times suffer from a fatal kind of fever. In the sheep, as in the ox, all tbc. temporary incisors are up at a month old, as well as the first, second and third molars, A t one year old ths two central incisor are changed and replaced by permanent teeth and the fourth aud fifth molars are up. Six months later the two lateral central and the sixth molar appear. At two, years and tires months tbs lateral, pa t- NO 5. manent incisors are cut, and tbe fust, second snd third molars are permanent. At three years old tbe corner ineisors sre shed, and shortly afterwards all tbe permanent teeth are b the month. The Mensury hrl.y is a nee variety and likely to l-cofno Fpular.
