64 Small Flocks. 



While it is not possible to go in for breeding sheep 

 on a small place, if the area is at all considerable a little 

 skilful arrangement will make it quite feasible. A 

 small yard and an improvised dip can quickly and 

 cheaply be erected. If the land is inclined to be damp 

 conditions are not favourable for a permanent flock, 

 although some sheep may be pastured during the drier 

 months of the year and sold, or removed to the higher 

 ground in the winter time. The labour required in the 

 attention of sheep during the year is small, and the 

 trouble is a minus quantity if the fences are secure.
