N.Z. Sheep Arrive For Chinese Co-op. Farm of R. Alley
(Rec. 8.50). SHANGHAI, March 23. The first air-borne sheep in China’s history —25 pedigree New Zealand rams and ewes —have left aboard a U.N.R.R.A. distribution agency plane on a 1200 miles flight to Lanchow, en route to the Kansu province. They are Corriedale aristocrats, and were sent to China as a gift of the Corriedale breeders of New Zealand to the Bailie School for Industrial Co-opera-tives, operated near Shantan by a NewZealander, Rewi Alley.
