When Blackfaces are taken to shelter for fattening, however, they do exceedingly well. Blackface mutton is famous for its superior flavor and quality, and crosses with either Cheviot or Border Leicester are said to yield mutton almost or quite as good as that of the pure Blackface (Fig.llS). _ Distribution.—Outside of their native home few Blackfaces are to be found.

Though not very productive, Birdsfoot- trefoil has been occasionally used to form " bottom-herbage."
