"FAKING "OF SHOW SHEEP.
A NOTE HJOil ENGLAND. The "Kentish Express and Ashfonl ! News," Kugland, contains a note on the .'•subject of tho •■'faking , ' of sheep.. It is jnot in England alone, says the paper, .that the "faking" of sheep is.causing conllroversy, "for' the matter has been the .subject' of much debate in New Zealand. I The result, however, appears to be the l«ame in .both instances. Substantially it iamounts to the conclusion that breeders j should b? allowed to present their sheep jiii the show ring to the best advantage '.they were able'." .'< . The "Express" refers to TukDomixhb?.. of March It, in which there appeared a, letter from Mr. .Robert Cobb.. Tn'the. Doursc of-the letter Mr. Cobb said: "May I 1)0 allowed to insinuate that',in .the. ■majority of cases you will find.'as .-ivdi did, that, tho objectors were unsuccessfulexhibitors* who were seeking a .plausible, excuse, or who were deficient in enterprise ;and knowledge of how to 'go and do -lilcc jwisc.'." - The "Express" adds: "It is a ■ficmarfcablo. coincidence that '.■ .' . the- • official judges of thVKent aiul Eomncy iJlarsh sheepbrceders should conic to. what .niipears to be substantially the same conclusion." ■ ■
