A large part of the waste land in this section could be used profitably for sheep raising. Much of the rough and otherwise un : - used land now, covered with coarse grass®* and ‘forest /undergrowth would Jhirntsh a large amount of pasture and .at tbe same time the soil would be greatly Improved' In agricultural value by.the use of sheep.
