Excerpt from Sheep, Swine, and Poultry: Embracing the History and Varieties of Each, the Best Modes of Breeding, Their Feeding and Management; Together With the Diseases to Which They Are Respectively Subject, and the Appropriate Remedies for Each Allusion has heretofore been made to the cross between the Merino and the native sheep. On the introduction of the Saxon family of the Merinos, they were universally engrafted on the parent stock, and the cross was continued until the Spanish blood was nearly bred out. When the admixture took place with judiciously selected Saxons, the results were not unfavorable for certain purposes. These instances of judicious crossing were, unfortunately, rare.
