HE LARGEST PART of the returns from farm 



flocks is derived from the sale of lambs. 

 In order that this source of income may be as large 

 as possible, it is necessary to have the lambs in the 

 best possible marketable condition. 



Ram lambs and undocked lambs are discriminated 

 against on the market because they are less well de- 

 veloped and lack a uniform and attractive appear- 

 ance. 



It is impossible to obtain as large gains or as good 

 condition on lambs that have not been castrated. 



This bulletin discusses how these operations may 

 be done safely and effectively on the farm.
