Bees in California.

We are informed by our CORES
pOndent in Utah, that Mr.. HARRISON,
of California, recently arrived at
Salt Lake City with two hundred
stocks of pure Italian bees, for which
he receives $4,000, being SO per
stock, delivered. They were first
class stocks and in fine condition.
He did not lose a single stock in
transportation.
1t was only in 1858 that the first
stock of black bees were imported
into California. Mr.. Shelton pur-
chased twelve swarms at Aspinwall, !,
transported them safely, but they
soon dwindlcd down to one stock.
This was taken to San Jose, where
it threw off three swarms that sea-
son. Two Of these were purchased
by J. w. Patrick, at SI05 and S1I5
respectively. Other importations
from the Atlantic States followed.
In the fall of 1855, Mr.. HARRISON
started with sixty-seven stocks, from
his apiary in Pennsylvania. He got
through with fifty. In 1858, he
started again, with ia stocks, got
ting 103 through safe. Mr.. Gridley
took four swarDs across the plains
in 1859, in a spring wagon. He fed
them and stopped occasionally to
let them fly out and work. They
went through all right. Mr.. Ap-
pleton states that he sold 400 lbs. of
honey in 1856, 1t S1.50 and $500
per pound.

Goat Raising-Nem Business.

A correspondent to the Rock Riv-
| er GARNER" furnishes that paper
with an article in reference to tho
Angora or Cashmere goat, and as we
have, in Tennessee land in Alabama
and Mississippi), a wide extent Of
territory admirably adapted to the
habits of this animal, and which we
doubt not could be made profitable
in It's propagation, we transfer the
article to our columns with the hope
of directing the attention of some of
our readers to it's importance as well
the profits accTuiDg from its cultiva
ton. The correspondent says:
81 have seen the question often
asked about goat raising for profit,
on the farm. ] don't know whether
it willinterest al your readers; l fear
not.
ain this country the are such
vast tracts of poor land, in the shape
of bluffs, rocky hills, deep raVines
and valleys, with their deep sloping

"Any person who proposes going
into goat-raising, | would advise
them TO obtain some Angoras-fOr
tho reasons which herein follow:
''The Angoras are extremely hardy
and very prolific. They make excel
lent mutton, especially the kids; and
the goats milk IS very rich. They
require shearing twice year, and
Weld about two pounds each head at
every clip; and, in addition, is sJudged
by the absence of kempe, or coarse
hair. The hair OF the Angora Is of a
fine white, almost like silk, and Is
used In the the manufacture OF the
finest stufs, particularly camleis and
cashmere sbawls sf worldwide re-
nown, and 80 generally admired by
ladies everywhere.
The feeces of the young animals
are che best and most valuable IN
quality. The large skim, properly
dre- sed, make beautiful mats for car
riages, and will far surpass the dirty
looking buffalo for Tobes, which Is
fast becoming e1terIainated on the
great plains of the West. The An
CORA leather is as much superior 10
common goat-'eatber, as there Is be
tween the Bordeaux and American
calf leather. The finest and test mo-
rocco IS made from the Angora goat
skins. The common goats which
climb the high mountains Of North
Wales are MIXED regularly every
day, and come home like COWS. 1
have seen numbers Of them with
teats as large as three-year cd hei-
fers.
The hair of The Angola IS sold IN
England az fgom half a crown to four
shillings n pound. l think goat
raising may be turned to very pro-
ftable account, for they viii live and
thrive where sheep would staTye.-
