to observe the yield and
quality of fleeces from the various
Idiots of sheep. About 750 animals
igwero sheared that day, and during

the range where 17,000 acres has
been inclosed by a fence for three
years. This has been found an ef
fective way for building up' a good
stand of grass, as the feed inside the
fence was much better than that
just outside as a result of protec
tion against roaming stock. S The
department also has : demonstrated
the value of assuring a water sup
ply by the drilling of .wells and the
construction of reservoirs. It has
been found to pay to haul water
as much as 3 miles during ..very
dry weather,' the cost being about
one-fourth, cent a head daily, during
these periods. .The water required
daily per ewe is between two-thirds
and three-fourths of a gallon'.-' . , '
At. the -winter headquarters,
where there is a stockade for 2,500
ewes, sunflower silage has been fed
along with alfalfa hay with great
success. J The yield of this feed has
