Sperling, and from the Calf Club members make an ex hi bit which would be a credit to any livestock show;. The value of the proper foundation animals and the use of good purebred sires In improving the quality of the offspring, were fea tures shewn. One very interesting four generation exhibit, beginning with the wonderful old cow Rosaline Eu gania, owned by Christiansens, this cuw s daughter, Fox, owned by B. W. Sperling, daughter of this cow Fox the Second, owned by Mr. Hulburt, and Fox the Second's calf, sired by Mr. J. W. Roger"s bull, were Bhown and mado a most interesting study. . Professor Fitts of O.

When it is considered that this money was made principally out of brush and browse from the highest hill tops. It has a deep significance to Lincoln County Just suppose we were an nually converting all of each year's crop of hill land goat pasture Into mo- j hair. But there are some problems to be met before this can realized - mure iv uiu yreutuury tiuiuitu proD lem. There is a need for a winter feeding system to be developed In or der that a given range will carry thru the winter the number of goats neces sary to keep tho feed down during the spring and summer.
