WhUmore: "The greatest need of thc farmer in this part of tin; county Is a regular market fcr what he can grow.

C. Heath: "I have sold off ir.y that I would like lo have 'but am atrald. to buy mere bjcause of the high price." said Larkin Heath of Hoanoke. "I brted Rambouillet; sheep because I like them best for purpose. It is true that the black faced sheep have some points of superiority over thc wrinkled hoys but then the RarcboullV'ts have some things- over the black, faced bays too.

If I was going to lave just a few sheep on s. small pasture I might like the blsck faces but where the flock is to number 100 or more I prefer the Rnmbouil- ttts every time. They stay togetli- better and if you -lave lambs arc too old for sale as spriii" lambs Iht-y will brin-j better prices as feeders. The black faces sell better for Easter. lambs.

In fact a. black lace sells better at a few months eld than at any other time in its life. If it gets to be more than six months old the Rambouillet has ii over the black faced s'-ieep becn-se the feeders want Rambuillets ane do not want black faced sheep for Discount and vegetables can be grown all i but we cannot dtpend upon the market. A regular market even if was a cheap market would beat we have. As It is now we have no outlet for our crops except Denten and 'Dallas ar.d both markets E.VC ca lied on to take up more than they can consume.

If we could either out or arrange some way 13 take care of the crops until they a.uld be marketed this section of thc county wmld prosper. Some form of that will assure us ot living; pi ice for what we grow would be worth more to us than any one thing that could happen."
