Synopsis
Excerpt from Feeding Sheep and Lambs: Clover Hay V. Native Hay; Turnips V. Dry Ration
Sheep raising in New Hampshire is fast becoming an important phase of the livestock industry. Its development, or rather redevelopment, within recent years has been rapid, and every year shows a consistent and satisfactory increase in numbers. Farmers are beginning to realize how profitable, when pursued upon a systematic basis, sheep raising is. Attention is being paid, not only to general sheep raising, but to that more intensive form of it - winter or hot-house lamb production. Early lamb raising yields large returns owing to the proximity and easy access to the Boston and New York markets, where the highest prices in America prevail for this product.
There are many advantages of sheep raising that should appeal to the average farmer and make him a convert to the business. First, the initial investment need not be great. In fact, a begin ner should always start with but a few sheep. As his flock grows, so will his experience in methods of management, and he will not be so liable to make costly mistakes. Nor has the sheep breeder long to wait before he realizes a return from his invest ment. If he practises winter or hot-house lamb raising, he sells his lambs at from ten to fourteen weeks of age, and, even though he is simply raising lambs for the late summer or fall trade, he will seldom have to keep them longer than eight months. By selling his ram lambs and keeping his ewe lambs, he is obtain ing considerable profit and at the same time increasing his flock rapidly without a further monetary expenditure.
