UNFAIR SHEARING OF CORRIEDALES
TO THE EDITOR Of THE CBIS3. Sir, —Your correspondent "Exhibitor," writing on the above subject, states that the big sheep breeders practically sleep with their sheep for months before the shows! —and when the weary squatter lays his head upon a sack oi moose nuts and gazes at the cobwebs on the roof he croons to himself that old song: Locked in the stable with the sheep I lay me down in peace to sleep. Jt is too cold to sleep alone And I've a wife who snores at home. But cnlui and peaceful shall.l sleep Because I always dip my sheep. These last two lines may not appeal to Mr Ensor.—Yours, etc., ONCE BITTEN. October 29, 1934.
