THE MERINO SHEEP.
Baton Rouge, La., Sept. 15.--Only
within the last week or two has the
wool market shown any signs of re
vival. The indications are that the
finer wools will be the ones most
easily sold. There has been a great
er tendency than for many years in
Texas and the range states to use
Rambouillet and Delaine Merino
rams this season. It is likely that
finer wgol will be in more favor from
now on for American use.
I believe the Louilsana sheep own
er should make a point to-produce
nothing coarser than 3-8. Our 1-4
'blood wool will sell slow this year,
and very likely for several years un
less wool shortage shows up on ac
count of general discouragement over
wool prices.
Fine Delaine and half-blood wool
is going to sell more easaly and at a
much higher price than 3-8. On a':
count of the general neglect of the
Merino breeds (now much imprnv
ed) Louisiana has no fine wool to
offer.
The Merino is a hardier sheep un
der cur conditions than any of the
Down breeds; the Merino shears a
much heavier clip and a fine suality
the market demands. It seems very
regrettable that our fanmeers have
so generally tabooed the Marino.
Three Delaine Merinos owned by '1.
L. Simpson, of Lincoln parish, have
done unusually well.
Two years ago there was a move
ment on foot in St. Tammany ,paris
to get a few new rams. If even two
pure bred Delaines had been bought
then, now we would have a got.d
start of half blood ewes and bucks
too if we cared to use'them. Feb
ruar,7 is a good time to bring down
ram.s; they come off dry feed up
North and get to our first spring
grass At that season young ra m.
can be bought as low as $35. Isn't
there a farmer or two in St. Tam
many parish who could see the ad
vantage of starting us off with some
Delaine Merino blood? Texas it
getting them by the carload.
If we expect to stay 4n the wool
Ibusiness, a little outlay for a fin
Delaine Merino ram right now may
make a great difference in the way
the wool market lcoks at our wool
two years from now. -
Yours truly,
G. P. WIILIAM$,
Extension Sheep Specialist.
