Rearing These Animals Very Profitable
In Cape Colony, South Africa.
Apparently it will pay we'll to raise
Angora goats in the belt of country ex-
tending across from California east
ward through Texas. In Cape Colony,
South Africa, they bring the farmer
more money than anything else he can
produce. They thrive best in the Karoo
districts and the higher, drier lands of
Cape Colony generally.
There was difficulty in starting the
animals in South Africa. The attempt
only began to be successful in 1879, but
there are already 4, 000,0 600 goats in the
colony. Some Angora rams imported
from their native Turkey in 1895
brought as high as 81, $50 each. In our
own country the caprices of fashion
sometimes bring mohair, as the fleece
of an Angora goat is called, down low
in price, but it has lately been discov-
cred even in such case that the rearing
of Angora kids for the butcher is q
profitable business We believe the An
CORA would do well in many parts OF
our southern states. Whatever adds
variety to useful products pays and is a
benefit to man as we'll.
We find in London Black and White
an interesting account of the Angoras
in South Africa. The writer Says
The Angora in the colony is not now
pure bred. The original imported rams
were crossed with carefully selected
r,f1ro m hifo Roor ooot oxuoc aud from
the succeeding inbreeding the present
focks have sprung and fine, glossy,
silky fleece has been secured. Indeed. il

Glover on Sod.

1t is often saying among farmers
that clover rarely succeeds when sown
on newly turned clover sod Ameri-
can Cultivator comments as follows:
The saying had its origin in the days
when blowing under clover was the
usual preparation for wheat sowing. If
the blowing was early enough for the
clover to be entirely rotted, the clover
seed grew readily enough, but if the
first crop of clover was cut off and the
sod was plowed late, so as to let the
second growth attain good size. there
would invariably be failure of the
clover catch next season. Glover does
not do we'll if sown on any kind of a
sod. The reason is that newly turned
sod holds the furrow up, and as it rots
down the soil above naturally falls,
leaving the clover above it to perish.
The young clover plant has at first a
very slender hold on the soil. Any fall
ing down of the soil leaves it high and
dry in the air. and. of course. is fatal

The Cosmopolitan publishes a NEW
rendering of the Rubaiyat of Omar
Khayyam" and declares, referring to
Richard LIE Gallienne as the responsible
party, that these quatrains will assure
to him leading place among living
English poets What the literary world
has been famished for, what it has
craved with intense craving, is new
version of the Rubaiyat, and what
would represent its widest dreams is a
version prepared by the distinguished
oriental scholar, Richard LIE Gallienne.
who has already given to the world some
ecstatic prose fancies and possesses the
finest shock Of hair in Great Britain. It
is true that the Rubaiyat has been
dome" into English by several gentle
men Of literary ability and respectable
scholarship. There was, for example, a
Mr.. Fitzgerald, who has obtained lit
tie temporary notoriety through some
very pretty jingles on Omar's wine cup
and roses, but the result was not salts
factory either to Mr. LIE Gallienne or to
the editors of The Cosmopolitan, and to
this fact we are indebted for such lines
as these:
Like to a maid who exquisitely turns
A promising face TO him who, waiting. burns
In hell to hear her answer, SO the world
Tricks all and hints what man ever learns.
We believe that we are justified in
saying that a man who is burning in
hell while maid is exquisitely turning
a promising face is what is known col
loquially as thot stuff, considerably
warmer than anything Mrs. Wilcox has
dished up in late years. We congratu-
late The Cosmopolitan on its success in
securing Mr. LIE Gallienne's quatrains,
and we have only words of admiration
for Mr.. LIE GalIienne's brilliant idea.
We hope that he may feel encouraged
BY the eager applause of the literary
public to persevere on present lines and
give as ether amended version Of the
ancient poets, Chicago Post.

HARVESTING POTATOES.

Harvesting Machines a Success Bushel
Boxes For Handling Potatoes.
1t appears to have been clearly demon
strated that the better class of potato
harvesting machines can be relied upon
to dig and separate the potatoes from
the soil as we'll as could have been done
by hand and at the same time leave the
ground in good condition for future use.
These machines raise the entire row,
elevating it and separating the potatoes
from the soil, and deposit them in the
rear upon the surface of the ground ready
to be carted off. An Ohio correspondent
of Prairie Farmer, who, by the way,
favors bushel boxes to handle the tubers
in the field, writes as follows concern
ing the sorting of potatoes:
We now use sorter which is prac-
tical and very simple machine. The po-
tatoes are shoveled into one end, and
the culls drop through below and the
sorted potatoes go into basket at the
rear of the sorter. Before we used this
machine we usually sorted off the scoop
shovel, on bench which we will de-
scribe. We never could humble our
selves, as some people do, by getting
down on floor or the ground on our
knees before a pile of potatoes. We
therefore made bench SO we could
stand upright while sorting. Always
handle potatoes with the scoop if posi-
BILE after once picked up.
For sorting bench take three boards
wide enough SO that they will stand on
end without tipping over. Cut two of
the boards, say. feet long and the other
about Is inches long. Nail one of the
long boards on to the short one at right
angles. This will make a support for
one end of the bench and be about IS
inches high Take the other long board
and nail it at right angles on the other
end of the long board is inches from
the end, SO that your bench is Is inches
high. The board comes up above the
bench IS inches at one end, makes a
place on which to rest the scoop handle,
while the end Of the scoop rests on the
edge of the box or basket sitting on the
bench. The sorting can be done then
off the shovel with both hands Free
With little practice the sorting can
be done speedily and with much less
discomfort than by getting down on all
tours as SO many do
When possible, potatoes should be
sorted before they are stored perma-
nently for the winter. Before we build
our potato house we usually hauled
them to the barn floor from the field,
and the sorting was done there. Now
we take them directly to the potato
house and store them in the sorting
room, where they can lie until cold
weather if necessary, but they are sort
ed before they go into permanent stor-
age.
