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, . Mr.
McCorkle is likely to leave his im
press upon his state In a way that
will make his name honored in
the generations to come.

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
