In the last ten years the percentage of feed samples found deficient in protein has decreased from 24 to JL/ONG-TIME breeding experiments have thrown much light on the Mendelian characteristics of sheep and made new combinations feasible. The New Hampshire Station was selected to carry on the investigations con- ducted for 35 years by Alexander Graham Bell in the development of multi- nippled sheep. The two lambs shown below were recently sent to England for breeding Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original New Hampshire Agricultural Experiment Station.
