Ostrich Farming.

Ostrich farming is one of the i'm
portan, industries of South Africa,
which, as yet, furnishes the bulk of the
ostrich plumes for the markets OF the
world. There are probably 100000
domestiealed ostriches in Cape Colony.
Each bird is supposed TO net his
owner $40 per annum. The Enclosures
in which they are kept are usually
built of stone, but where stone is not
abundant wire fences have been en-
ployed with equal success.
The birds are commonly plucked
ence every eight months, yielding one
pound weight of feathers each, but
many farmers only pluck GO feathers
at time, 50 as not to cause TOO much
irritation and resulting Inflammation,
which is very injurious to the health
of the birds, and lessons the next crop
of feathers. The birds, IN these large
fields, find plenty of ioed, rarely hav-
luS w pt itN WIN hieoilNci pS"hS,
lucerene or other cultivated food pre-
ducts.
The number of eggs laid varies from
IS to "a, the male bird usually excvat
ing the nest IN some sandy spot, bot
both birds assisting in the incubation,
taking turn about. But it is during
this period OF incubation that the
plumes are at their best and many of
them are utterly spoiled for com
mercial purposes. Of late years arti-
fetal incubation has been resorted to
and with perfect success, for it has
been found that fewer eggs are spoiled
by this method and that the young thus
hatched are no less vigorous than those
brought up by the birds themselves.
The value of feathers exported from
Cape Colony during the past 30 years
is estimated at over $50,000000, the
total weight being about 1900 tons.
