Tho.ru arc a million Angora goats, in America and yot we import annually over thirty per cent of the mohair used in our domestic nmiiufaetures. There te no reason why our fanners, cannot maintain enough goats to supply our do mestic trade with superior niohiar. Especially favorable is southern Oregon to goat -raising, especially .in the out lying foothills. Following is au extract from tho article: ''The banner goat farm of America is located in Texas, and numbers ten thousand head of grade and mre-brcd Angoras. Last year the owner of this ranch realized a net profit of one dollar per animal from his flock. There are several other pretentious goatrfurmy throughout New Mexico, California and Oregon. The largest goat-ranch in the Mississimn vallev has two thousand head, but the average flock in this country is from one hundred to five hundred animals. "The custom is to shear the goats early in April. Or dinary hair sells for thirty-five to fifty-five cents a pound. This common gratlo of mohair, which commands no espec ially high price, is that whose length is less than twelve inches; the ordinary fleece of one year's growth measures about ten inches in length. Tho average mature doc will shear from --six to nine pounds of mohair each year, while the full-grown buck will yield from ten to fifteen pounds. Previous to shearing, the flock is graded into classes of does, bucks, kids and wethers. The fleeces are marketed according to this classification. The American Angora Goat association maintains a special mohair warehouse in Boston, where the fleeces of practically all the Angoras in this country arc marketed. At this depot the fleeces are carefully cleaned, regraded if necessary, and baled ready for consignment to the manufacturing plants, where the raw ipohair is converted into clothing, rugs, book-bindings, shoes and gloves. "One very beautiful fleece, which was twenty-two inches in length, sold for 0.50 a pound, the record price for raw mohair in this country Four dollars a pound is about the ordinary top figure. "Land can be cleared by Angora goats of the worst' brush. known to this country. for a little less than nothing. How? Simply this: Angora goats will live on leaves and weeds, leaving the hind cleaner and nicer than can be done in any .other war." ., . . , ONE-THIRD STATE SALEM, Ore., Jan. 23.
