An article by Sir A. D. Hall presenting the 1919-20 financial accounts of the pedigree Hampshire Down sheep flock kept by the Lord Wandsworth Orphanage on its Long Sutton Estate in Hampshire, compared with the previous year. It explains the cost-basis bookkeeping and the sharp rise in feed, labour and ram costs, and the improved sales of ram lambs, shearlings and wool. It concludes that the flock made a loss of about £190, and that pedigree ram breeding is unprofitable compared with growing corn unless a flock reaches the top rank in shows.

Report on public trials of two flax-pulling machines held by the Irish Department of Agriculture and Technical Instruction at Ballyveasey, Carnmoney, near Belfast, on 26 July 1921. It describes the self-propelled Crawford-Bennett drum machine and the tractor-drawn Fibre Corporation machine with endless chains of combs, and compares how each delivers the pulled flax. The author notes that the stems were undamaged but the heads were tangled, which would make rippling difficult, and concludes that machine pulling looks commercially achievable. Two photographs of the machines are included.

A 1921 article on the Herdwick sheep, a hardy breed of the Cumberland, Westmorland and North Lancashire fells in England's Lake District. It covers the origin of the name, breed characteristics, the custom of letting a 'heaf going' flock with the farm, homing instinct, ram letting, lambing, flock marks, mutton and fleece weights. Wool is touched on briefly as coarse, once used for carpets and then of poor market value. Includes photographs of rams, ewes and lambs on the fells.

An article on the Suffolk breed of sheep by S. R. Sherwood, covering its appearance, origin from Norfolk ewes crossed with Southdown rams, and recognition as a pure breed. It reviews the breed's record in Smithfield Club carcass competitions, flock registration, sale prices, and spread to Scotland, Ireland and overseas. It includes expert opinions on the fleece (56's Bradford count, suited to hosiery), fleece weights, and a detailed account of flock management, mating, lambing and feeding through the year. Two photographs show Suffolk ewe tegs.
