Slogan number of the States man an informative and interest ing'' article. Just now, Mr. Gage Is absent in California and Texas exhibiting a mohair film and de liTering an accompanying lecture. So the reader must be content with, his recent contribution to "The Angora Goat," a descriptive booklet just issued by the Ameri can Angora Goat Breeders' Asso ciation, with head office at Rock Springs, Texas, as follows:) Goats and ibexes are of the same genera. Closely resembling each, other in aome points, they are yet" of distinct types. Wild goats , of . thej Pyrenees .mountains Between spam ana i? ranee are or ,,, , - ..... a i.' Jir, - t if i Fleeces from Angora goats go into the finest mohair up holstery and 'drapery fabrics. This mohair goat was bred by Vm. Riddell & Sons, Monmouth, Oregon. he Ibexes.' .The largest and hand somest of wild goats are found in central Asia. It is from these ani mals that the' modern goat was derived. The "bibliography of the goat Is confined to few volumes, but naturalists and other authori ties on the subject apparently agree that the goat is of earlier origin than tjhe sheep. Two general designations dis tinguish one from the other: cap ra (goat) and ovis (sheep). He who trios to jtrace back the origin of each species finds himself lost in bewildering attempts at fixa tion of type, and scientists are not lucid ob the line of descent, except that most- agree that the goat of "today originated in the wild typo of mountain-climbing goat whose habitat was between the Black Sea, and the Himalayas. It seems probable that all goaU of today were evolved from a com mon and very remote ancestral BtOCfcL, . . The mohair' goats .of Armenia are ! considered' to have resulted from inter-breeding various types of goats, the Kurdestan goat be ingjerossed upon the smaller and finer-haired , goat of the Angora district, 1 la order to secure, more bodjrsia? the anlmaVrC nd. more weight and strength in the fleece, v , Domestic or milking goats are considered ta have originated like wise from the .wild goat (capra Aegagrus), although the Encyclo paedia Brittanica says: "Consider able diversity of, opinion has been expressed by .naturalists as to the original stock jof. the. domestic goat which' is met with in nearly 'every quarter of the globe the now; prevalent and most probable conclusion being that the various domestic breeds are descended from wild stock; now extinct." ' It Is reasonable to conclude from the foregoing that the var ions breeds of domestic goats have come down to the present from the Persian wild 'goat. Breeding has been conducted in the various countries; of Europe' with, a view to Increasing desirable character istics in domestic goats. -, Most Important There. , The goal, has , been, one of the most important domestic animals In Asia and -Europe for centuries, yet we on this side of the Atlantic have been reluctant to understand the real worth of this little pro ducer; : . Commercial development of the possibilities In mohair growing, however is rapidly 'removing this neglects and-the goat is becoming recognized as one ' pf the impor tant and productive farm animals in the Americas. Mexico has for years been util izing goats for milk supply, but has given no attention to' breed ing "for'jmohalr or improving the Quality of the stock On the other hand, with less than four hundred head or import ed stock to build; from. North America Jhas increased its Angora flocks to several millions. South America has little but 'common -stock though nerds are extensive. ' Canada his been rapidly Increas ing the number of goats on farms and la domestic surroundings. It may therefore be expected that the' goat is at last comIng-tor be recognized generally la the Amer- 0 HD D V icas as it has been "long valued in the Old World. Angora goat culture in the Unit ed States has- been carried on com mercially in the western states since 1890. Original importations came to this country as early as 1849. In 1848 the Sultan of Tur key presented ntne pure-bred An goras from the best flocks in Asia Minor to Dr. J. B. Davis, who had been sent as a diplomatic repre sentative from the United States government to the Ottoman em pire. These were the first goats imported to the United States. Subsequent breeding flocks of small numbers were brought at intervals thereafter up to 1893, when the industry may be said to have become somewhat estab lished. Until 1925 importations were of small numbers and there were scarcely any Angoras brought to this country, except in one year, 1S9.9.I .JEmbargp was placed . on exportation from Sontn Airica ana thesultanr Turkey made it an offense nunishable by death to take Angoras out of his empire, In spite of this fact one, Calif or- nian young physician, Dr. W. C Bailey, risked his life in the early nineties and brought out a tew goats at great expense. Mohair Goats Imported in 1923. Breeders of the United States secured from South Africa in 1925 an export shipment of one hun dred and seventeen Angora goats. These were assembled from the flocks of leading breeders at the Cape, shipped to the New Jersey quarantine station for detention and inspection, and were then sent to Camp Wood, Texas, where they were sold for an average price of $292.60, in June, 1925. Total, $34,235. Rigid quarantine regulations by the United States bureau of ani mal industry are maintained to prevent diseased, animals bekng brought to this country, but under proper inspection and detention, this obstacle was not a barrier, and it washns possible to secure infusion of new blood into Ameri can flocks. Game hunters have found the Rocky mountain goat' one of the most elusive and most difficult animals to secure. It inhabits the higher regions pf the backbone of the continent and, while belong ing to the goat species, is Individ ual and may be classed as a sub genera. Its wooly fleece Is -softer than that of the common or short haired goat, but is characterized by long straight' hair. There is found under the hair a close chat of fine white wool. Some breeders have suggested a cross of thfs goat on : the .Angora, but it has been impossible to secure bucks of the species. If there are any in cap tivity the writer has no knowledge of them. - , It has been stated that Angoras were first kept as household pets, and derived, gentleness from this method of domestication. The beauty - and VrSllklness v of ; their fleece induced the women. of the household to, weave fabrics of the hair, and to use it for "cushions. pillows and beds, before It became a staple for commercial manuiac e Th New " Ace . Today the principal uses for xuo - sis " " ' , . hair are for car-seat and mooter car plash upholstery, tapestries; drap eries, auto robes, auto toys and dress goods.1 The list of: other purposes for which it is available and employed is very large, and the yarns spun from Alngq'ra fleece are the most beautiful, obtainable. Industrially considiered. goats are productive of miobair, meat (chevon), and skins.' (Mohair is the whitest, most durable fibre known to the textile industry. . Value-, of Angoras an browsers and land-cleaners has "be en proved, although the mistake ,' has been made of thinking Angoras capable of getting their own living with out food , or shelter ' in severe weather and losses hav e resulted, with consequent Impression that goats were1 unprofitable stock on a brush range farm. Given the average care accord ed to sheep,, however. they have been found equauy productive. Good sheds should be provided where long snow periods are ex perienced, and feeding is essen tial when snow covers the ground. Goafs flessh, now called ch-e-v-o-n," is generally undis- tinguishable Crom mutton of the sheen, and large Quantities are supplied annually andabsorbed In the markets of the United States without creating any adverse com ment, or even being recognized as goat meat. ; In fact its agreeable taste and high food value render it in no way Inferior ' to sheep meat. Increasing quantities are marketed eavch year. Young does or wethers prepared before the age of five years are excellent. Kid chevon is. superior to lamb in tender and Jricy, quality. Goat meat is procurable in - many por tions pf the globe where other meat is not. The Angora is a pioneer, in the sense that it goes ahead of other live stock and clears the way for pasture and seed crops. In many new countries settlement would have been impossible without the goat. In the southwestern states large flocks of Angoras are maintained. Texas having nearly as many goats as'sheep on its ranges. Twen ty thousand in one Arizona coun ty were sheared in 1926. The department of agriculture has published several farmer's bulletins on the subject of An goras, that numbered 1203 beine the most recent. The branch of this department having the forest service in hand is keeping special grazing examiners in the field studying flock management, meth ods of care and breeding, grazing on forest areas, elimination of marauding animals, restocking of grazed brush lands to maintain permanent range, and offers the forests for use of the stockman, under certain regulations, restric tions and with a moderate fee for grazing. This service also contemplates extension of the employment of chevon as food to supplement the supply of other kinds of meat. It is not desired to have the brush cleared-in this work, nor the for- A Bunch of Pure Bred Angoras ests over-grazed, but it does want to have the forage utilized. Winter shelter is advised at low er altitudes than the summer graz ing grounds, some of which are above 5000 feet elevation. Breeding upward with employ ment only of the best bucks is recommended by the experts of the forest service and the bureau of animal industry, as well as by the leading flockmasters and breed ers of registered stock. The American "Angora Goat Breeders association, Hocksprlngs, Texas, has established a line of registry in which many of the earliest Importations of Asiatic and South African stock have been continuously recorded. Growers are united In the Na tional Mohair Growers associa tion, Frijole, Texas, a marketing organization.. Canada has given official recog nition to the Industry by authoriz ing formation of1 the Canadian Goat society with headquarters at' Ottawa. British Columbia has a goat society; at Victoria. 1 Many states have organized associations for betterment; of the industry in the past few years and counties are forming local branches, to for ward Angora -v goat, enterprises. Boys' and. girl' Angora clubs are being formed in several states. . The goat Is aiileau feeder and. a" profitable dotueWtlc; animal. There , is as much difference be tween, the common goat and the modern pure-bred as there is" be- tween the old-time ; Texas long horn and the modern! pure bred Hereford. Economio- administra tion of the American farm will adopt this little animal more gen erally as time passes. Goats on grain lands - are giving 'increased yield, keeping down . weeds , and fertilizing the soil. This import ant use of Croats is nosslble of laree I extension. . , . . L Uoat farming bold3 oppprtunitj; The Weaves of the Yarns Made From the Fiber of the Fleeces of Goats Go Into Many High Priced Materials in Demand by the High Class Car Builders and the First Class Trade in Various Lines Oregon Ought to Have Many Times Her Present Number of Goats A year ago the total world pro duction of mohair was 35,000, 000 pounds. Of this amount, Oregon was producing less than 2 per cent where this state ought to be producing many times that annual clip. Oregon has perhaps 3,000,000 acres of cut-over land suitable for mohair goats, or for milk Eoats. Goatswould transform them into profitable pastures. Herding or fencing will be required, but it will pay, and vast new- annual wealth will be created. Salem Oregon's Market Salem is the mart where prob ably 80 per cent of the mohair grown in Oregon . is marketed. While wool has. been slow in the past two seasons, mohair has sold on the spot, as soon as delivered to the warehouses. This is- true hot only in Oregon but in the southwest, where 90 per cent of Uncle Sam's mohair clip is pro duced. Why Mohair is In Demand Explanation of this increased demand for mohair, which is the purest white of any fiber known to the textile mills, is that it has entered new fields of manufao- for profitable investment, because its growth has been substantial and in no sense ephemeral. The Increasing demand for sto;k can not be fully supplied, and will not be adequately filled for many years. Counting all classes of goats there are approximately one hun dred and twenty million in the world under human control. Of the wild life of the goat little is known, as it inhabits the most inaccessible mountain heights. It is wary, elusive and consequently hard to meet. It is at home on rocky elevations where no man could find footing. Cases have been noted where Angora herds have become separated, the strag glers going to the summit of rocky hills where they lay in the sun shine for days and only descended at last for water and salt. West ern forests have supplied game to the hunter in the form of goats strayed from the flocks of farm ers adjacent. The instinct of wild life returns to the caprine species when liberated or escaped from the flock. The Rocky Mountain, Olympic and Cascade ranges of mountains in the northwest ' have absorbed many valuable animals now oc casionally brought down by the hunter, who considers he has se cured a repast equal to venison when he gets a young kid or doe of tender years by his facility with the Title.

JfiEBTHE ABLE 01 ture in the past few years that have created unlimited outlet for all that can be grown. South Africa produces about twelve million pounds each year. The United States is almost equal In total clip. Turkey in Asia sup plies about eleven million pounds. When it is considered that Amer ica uses all our own yield of mo hair and about eight million pounds of foreign hair, it is evi dent that Yankee wit has recog nized the superior nature of the fiber, its durability, beauty and utility. Great Britain is just now waking to the value of mohair, and is using her mills to make auto linings, seat tovers, draper ies and upholstery materials a3 America is doing. Expansion of Line of -Cloths Within the last eight years there has come into existence an unlimited line of smooth mohair fabrics, lustrous, beautiful, wash able, fast-colored and .indestructible-. These have been made into casement cloths, brocaded squares, cushion tops, chair-backs, bed counterpanes, the wonderful Palm Beach suitings, heavier cloths for police uniforms. I-etter carriers, bell boys, taxi drivers, club t ser vants, all are being costumed in mohair suitings. Bank draperies and upholstery fabrics are of mo hair. Hospitals have adopted mo hair cloths in order to secure a sanitary, washable material that does not catch and hold germs Radio broadcasting rooms are hung with mohair from floor to ceiling to prevent vibration and sound reflex. Seat cushions of sponge rubber with mohair tops are a recent addition to the line. Women's sport coats, suitings and dress materials .in a bewild ering range of patterns and color ings are of mohair. With silk and wool and the new wood-fiber called Tayon. mohair is' combined to give durability, lustre 'and brightness. Mohair fiber is very high in Notice of Intention to Improve Leslie Street From the West Line of High Street to the East Line of Liberty Street.

THE DIFFERENT BREEDS OF DAIRY GOT 5 IE D The Milking Qualities Vary According to the Individuals Rather Than the Breeds Improved Breeds Are All Good The Milk of All Is Pure, Sweet, and Much Richer Than Cows' MilkThe Finest Domestic Animal Created " ; r Mrs. Katherine Hayes, R.

In practice, though, you will find that the milkinK Qualities varv according to the individual, and it is well to beware the breeder whj claims all the virtues for his particular breed while declaring that other breeds are worthless. These points ar well brought out in an article bv Mrs. I. E.
