The cali.ornIs Ostrich.

The ostrich will eat and thrive on 9
great many plants. Their principal
food is alfalfa. They will DO well on
natural grasses, such as asfileria, a.a.e

and sweet potato vines. Alfalfa hay and
clover cut up aud moistened. is . good
substitute when green feed is scarce, al.
though green feed is indispensable at all
times of the year. Grain Is only neces'
sary during the winter monshs. Pots
toes, cabbage, and most kinds OF vege
tables rank as luxuries.
At fifteen months old bird Will yield
its second crop of feathers, consisting OF
from forty to fifty plumes, and othe'
short feather amounting to over half q
pound in weight. The first crop OF
feather, when the bird is only seven
months old, is not Of much valus-from
two to five dollars bird. At the pres
ent London prices bird will yield from
twenty to forty dollars worth OF feathers
at a plucking, the amount depending on
the sex and condition OF the bird.
The egg-shell may be another Item OF
profit. A hen will lay as many as sixty
eggs a year. if we'll fed. They commence
Isyiug at three and one-half years old.
The feathers are equal, If not superior,
to the African product. The larger tho
enclosures tho better, for their habits
are naturally roaming. Sandy or gravel
" soil is preferable An acre OF alfalfs
will keep ten birds, if the feed Is cut
and given them; if pastured, only half
this number will thrive.
The only one showing for profit at
present Is in the disposal Of the feathers:
Periodically as it may appear, parcel
of feathers will bring higher price in
the London market than can be obtained
here. The reason for this is that each
buyer here requires q certain KIND OF
feather, there being many varieties ana
colors. II the present product OF the
State was so divided there would
not be enough of each kind to satisfy our
buyers to bother about, so they 60 TO
