A four-page chapter on sheep keeping in Egypt, taken from a book about the Khedive's country. It describes the neglected state of Egyptian sheep raising, the lack of breed selection, the role of the shepherd, and the need to guard flocks against theft. It also discusses growing demand for mutton and the prospects of ensilage for feeding sheep in the Nile Delta. A photograph of Egyptian sheep with a shepherd is included. It contains nothing on wool or textiles.
