MERINO SHEEP. 
THE subscriber has for sa!e a fine lot of BUCK LAMBS from 
his flock of Paular sheep, which were selected by himself, 
with great care, from some of the best flocks in Vermont. These 
lambs were dropped early, and will therefore be able to do good 
service this fall. Should a few ewes be wanted with a buck, for 
the purpose of commencing a flock, they would be spared. A por¬ 
tion of the lambs were got by the buck Major , which after hav¬ 
ing taken one of the premiums at the State Fair at Utica, took the 
first premium at the Tompkins county Fair, in October last. He 
was shorn for the first time, on the 4th of June last, having carried 
his fleece two seasons, and after having been thoroughly washed, 
and allowed proper time to dry, he gave fifteen pounds of good, 
handsome wool. The whole flock, 85 in number, about 60 of 
which are ewes, averaged 5 lbs. of wool per head, well cleaned 
and in good order. Some of the ewes with lambs by their sides, 
gave over 6 lbs of wool each. The proportion of lambs reared 
for the two last seasons, is within two per cent, of the number 
dropped. REED BURRITT.
