Ostrich farming i'll California has
proved so successful thatit is proposed
10 start similar business in Texas,
and rs the climate and conditions are
favorable, it is probable that the ven.
ture will prove a profitable one.
Some ten years ago a similar expert.
hent was made in Florida, but il
proved dismal failure. Undeterred
by this, Il second effort has eenmade,
and it is said that seven birds have
been successfully raised in that state,
and that the outlook is promising.
This is probably largely due to the
fact that the birds were under the care
OF an attendant who had learned in
South Africa how to handle them.
1t Is said that very little actual care
Is required by the birds except when
breeding. The chief point is to know
when to leave them alone. They
have the home instinct largely devel-
oped, and will not stray of from the
farm where raised and will remain
near their watering place like cattle.
The breeding birds are confined to
smaller pens and mated in pairs. Lay
ing begins early in spring, and if the
eggs are removed promptly, laying
will continue until forty or fifty cgga
are produced by each female. Hatch
ing is done both naturally and artif-
clally, the latter matter being pre-
ferred, as sitting Injuries the plumage,
