Smith tor;the on the Tillamook hishwav lust east of the Summit of the Coast range will be found the goat and bee" ranch of C; C. Mc:orkle and Son. They have about 100 milk goats at' the present time includ ing the kids. Thirty-seven of this number are milking, and from this milk" -they are - manufacturing cheese. ' - A cave of about .10x14 feet Is used to store the finished product. Thsl cave is well screened and has sneives arouna tne staes with a cutting table in the center. The cheese sells at 60 cents a pound, and, according to Mr. Mc- Corkle, there is four times the profit In it that can be realized from the making . pf . the famous Tillamook cheese, when it sells at SO cents a -pound. Four dollars to one dollar of profit Is the -slo gan of Mr. McCorkle. . '. How Can This Be? . Mr: StcCorkle explains that he gets or.', ppund of cheese rom six pounds " of " goat's in ilk, while . it takes eleven pounds of cow's milk to make a pound of cheese. Also the milk goat rustles her own liv ing, v. here there is ample outside range, as in the hills of the Coast range. About-all the .artificial feed she requires is a handful of oats or mill feed to induce her to eagerly jump to .her stanchion ; In order to be milked. . : There is a demand at 60 cents a pound-for all the cheese the Mc Corkles can turn out. ' They make the Emmenthal' , cream Swiss cheese. : It Is of the nature of cheddar cheese) ahd" of that form, The McCorkle .goats are Saan ens' and 'Nubians. About a third of them are registered. There Is Saanen buck by Alta Switzer land; an imported animal that sold for $2000. He was out of .a seven and a -half quart' milker. : . Mrs; McCorkle -is the -cheese maker of the McCorkle establish ment. She gives.all the operations of cheese making her personal at tention. She also makes an excel lent butter from the goat milk, for home use. ' . ' ' ' " Good Cheese Climate Mr. McCorkle says the climate favors the making ot good cheese, The McCorkles have 120 acres of land: but their -goats have "all out of doors" In which to range That is, they have all the vacant land la that region. I The "McCorkles have been there five years. ; Their place" is , the "old bee ranch." It is one of the oldest bee ranches ot that' section producing fire weed and vine ma nle honey, i ot the Very 1 highest quality. They have 50 stands ot bees, some of them with Imported queens. ! ' Mr. McCorkle's father was the first white child born within fifty miles of Salem, and Mr. McCorkle himself -was born in the same cab in, nine ' miles out of Salem on Howell Prairie. He has been an engineer and miner. ' . : As a pioneer in the milk goat cheese industry in this state, .

In the knitting mills of the sp-c:ai machinery required for its manu facture. Mohair Is an exceedingly durable fibre, for which the uses are rapidly ' increasing. Lack of space prevents enumeration of the many articles in common use that are made from it. ' -As to the: -value of Angoras In improving the appearance of the country ' one needs only to call to mind any tract' of land; which has been "goaled for any lenglh pt Ime, where; .the underbrush ana weeds have been 'replaced ; by grass, the, unsightly1 fence rows destroyed, and " with that, air, of prosperity; about It which appeaU to &ny man. .; ;. ... . '., During, the several years we have jaLsed! Angora goats' we have found them; the most profitable of all livestock,', more -than doubling tur original investment every year The chief reason for, this is that the mohalr;v ..goat" offers ' more sources of Income than any other farm animal. In addition to the mohair 'clipped annually, , and the yearly increase of young, the ben , ef.it to our jf arm In added fertility and Increased pasture through de struction of underbrush andweeus amounts to many dnIUrft'each year. We also have another source of income from premiums won; on cur breeding stock at the leading lairs. -4j i " t Nmnerous Advantages We find that production of mo hair has several advantages over wool growing. In the .first place mohair nearly always commands ahigher .price than wool (see pres ent market quotations for exam pie). More head may be kept to the acre than is the case with sheep, a greater, variety of herbage is consumed, and the quantity of the clip compares inore favorably than Is copamonly accepted. An average grade , flock will 'shear about five; pounds, and readily re spond to the judicious selection of good eires, so that the average is easily raised. Our pure bred flock, excepting the kids, averaged an eight pound clip this year. As land-cleaners the , Angoras are without peer. Put into slash ing or underbrush, "they 'consume everything; "eatable" to a height of five or ! six teet, and will peel saplings which cannot be brought to the ground. V They are a neces sity in the preparation of land for the stump-puller, or burner. ' We depend upon the eale of breed in e stock primarily in dis posing of our surplus, although we occasionally have a few fat weth ers. The flesh of goats has been told for years on the market, but usually lnj disguise. , Until recent years much of that particularly de- I t .if TTCTotis wit or Tamo was cut from a fat goat-. "Chevon," 5a goat flesh is now known, is really more palatable than mutton, as any goat raiser will testify. Its bad repu tation was due solely to the mar keting of the flesh of the males by unscrupulous persons.! When the consuming public becomes ed ucated to the real value ofichevon. continuous market for surplus does, " kids, ' and 'wethers will be assured. x;As a by:produc: of the slaughter yard, the hide of the Angora' la of considers bl impor lantc, being" used n the manufac ture ot rugs," furs, and bther articles. ; The "Angora does not much of the' bad reputat f.arlly ' attributed lo Koats. Al "though they consume a great va- tlety of vegetation, they are (con trary tot popular opinion) very "dainty In habit. We have found ILem very easy to keep 'ln: fences as long as there was any feed to be had, although they are supposed to be breachy by habit. ' Goats are very hardy and will survive under 1 tore severe conditions than sheep. but, flke all farm animals, they irr pond to proper, cary a Various deserve On ordi- gTonnd, and both squared-away for a primitive battle.

Groves made a break for his ' revolver. Rich meanwhile -firing three shots hieh' took no effect.' : Groves reached his gun 'and opened tire on Rich,; the latter by this' time having . sprinted - some distance from the scene and. jumped ' a fence.1 Five shots were said to have been fired by Groves without any result. : No arrests have been made In the case.
