Elmore came into the bay Tuesday, reaching the city the next day with lreight which the mer chants have been waiting several weeks for. She is a staunch looking and a well- built craft, the finest boat ever in this city. We hope the Pacific Navigation Company will from now on give Tillamook City better transportation service, thus put ting a stop to the continual kicking about “held-up” freight and “held-up” butter, which the company must admit itself was righteous indignation on the part of Tillamookers. The steamer will leave this city Saturday. ANGORA GOATS IN FAVOR. I C. P. Bailey, a California Raiser, Judged Herds at Salem. the native goat. Half-breed goats scarcely shear enough to pay for shear ing ; the fourth cross is the lowest grades I would keep for mohair exclusively. The average fleece of pure-bred goats is from four to six pounds, although more has frequently been obtained. Goats are longer-lived, more hardy, live on jioorer and less range, and less trouble to take care of than sheep. “Shearing must be done in the Spring, as soon as the hair begins to shed. It left longer the oil in the hair goes into the body of the animal, and the hair loses its life, weight and luster. The full year’s growth from the Coast states have proved the most profitable and the short, kempy, half-year’s clip the least so. “We have factories enough now in op eration in the United States to consume several times as much mohair as we pro duce, and most of these have expressed their preference for domestic mohair over imported. At 40 cents a pound, the mo hair from my flock will pay all expenses of flock, and a fair interest on money in vested in them; the increase is all clear profit. There w’ere about 22,000,000 pounds of mohair produced in the world last year, and of this amount Turkey raised 10.000,000, South Africa 11,500,- 000, and the United States 500,000. Considering the large amount used in manufacturing here at home, the small amount produced, and a duty, there is a splendid opportunity for the farmers to make money.” Piovilo» Our Wagon Is Busy all day and every Day, making prompt deliveries of Good Groceries As a number of dairymen in Tillamook have obtained goats for the purpose of clearing up their brush land, 'with good results, we give below some information furnished by Mr. C.
