MORE SHEEP SitOUIJ) pE
GROWN ON WILLIAMSON
COUNTY FARMS.
, Present tours Of. the' county show
farmers In all sections with pastures
ranging from three acre tramp lots
to 1,000 acres growing luxuriant
crops of weeds, vhlch' are crowding
out the grass. This condition can be
changed for the farmers financial
benefit quicker by placing therein
sheep In proportion to the acreage,
than most nny other way.
It Is universally considered by sheep
growers that an investment on the
farm pays better or Is safer surer
profit and no animal renders greater
economic benefits to tho farm than
sheep. Over h series of years, one can
snfely consider and expect 100 In-
terest annually on the investment.
Sheep will produce a crop of wool,
which usually amounts to 35 of the
original cost of sheep, besides a 100
lamb crop with practically no atten-
tion. In addition they will free tho
.pasture of weeds, living on whnt prac-
tically no other animal will cat, there-
by changing tho weed pasturo to a
good grass pasture for the cows and
teams, in addition to improving tho
amount and quality of grass and add-
ing fertility to the pasture.
The Bartlett National Bank hns
thrown down tho challenge to tho
farmers of Bartlctt territory agreeing
to finance the farmers who will take
the small trouble of a little fence fix-
ing nnd properly caro for tho sheep
purchased. Tills Is such a great movo
that I am hereby asking every bank
in this County to join in the move-
ment, already sovcray In different sec-
tions have advised that they wcro
ready to lend tho movement In their
section for increasing sheep on farms
in proportion to pasturo facilities
and needs, may I have a letter from
all banks ns well farmers Interested
In this. Already some fifteen farmers
havo asked for assistance in locnting
good grade ewes.
For tho tlmbor pasture, It is advis-
ed to uso tho Dciainc-Mcrino nnd in
the open pasture tho Shropshlres.
Letters oro being sent to owners of
good flocks for prices on nvailnblo
stock, and special selections will be
made for those wishing the service
of this office. Plans aro developing
for a car of registered- stock to be
selected soon in the North, mostly
bucks, with only one or two ewes,

College Station, Tex., June 14,-It
Is never too Into to learn nnd to go to
school In order to mnstor a now trade
if the events In pne's life should
make such a course desirable, accord
ing to C. Collier of Liberty Hill, "Wil-
liamson County, who, nt tho ago of
75 years, is taking a course In A. &
M. College,
Compelled bytho force of circum
stances to take up a new trndo, Mr.
Collier came to A. & M. to tako a
special eight weeks course in automd-
bile arid tractors and when he receives
his certlflcato at tho crid of that cour-
so ho expects to establish himself as a
repairer of automobiles and tractors.
Early in life ho began work in a
planing mill nt Georgetown and
spent n number of years at that trndd,
but finally tho mill went 6ut of busi-
ness when tho supply of material near
nt hand wns exhausted and out of his
earning Mr. Collier bought a small'
farm In Williamson County. Tilings
moved nlong well until his wife's
hcnlth gave way and finally her In-
vnlld condition became such that ho
hnd to sell tho little farm and move
to tho village of Lennder whoro he
could give his whole attention to his
companion. Threo yoara and n half
ngo his wife passed away nnd he wont
to mako his homo with his only sur-
viving relative, a grandson. But tho
influenza epidemic came to that com
munity tnd claimed tho grapdson as
ono of Its victims, nnd nt tho ago of
74 Mr. Collier was compelled to seek
a now work by which he can support
himself In his old age.
Having n.nntural bent for things
mechanical, bo decided on tho auto
course hero apd Id making an excellent
record In It. He is well preserved for
his years, is n natural optimist,and is
a great favorito with tho younger
.students of the course who call him
"dad" In clTcctlon rnther than ridicule
Ho is tho oldest student who has
ever registered at A. & M. College.
