Finally, the sheep were carried across the line on the backs of camels traveling at night. President Theodore Roosevelt cut the red tape and allowed the valuable animals to enter the country after they had spent sixteen months in quarantine. Importation of selected rams from the University of Germanys breeding farms has built up Metzgers flocks to the point where they now surpass in quality of fur the native Asian animals. Metzger has developed a special system for his herd, tagging whereby he hopes to mark the sheep which breed the best grade of pelts. d of the By killing only sun-dia- Machine Tells Sex of Eggs new-bor- Eleanor Oh, Jack, just listen to little Jackie crow. 1 HIS MACHINERY Teacher Henry, 1 thought 1 told you to draw a train.
