DOGS AND ANGoRA GOATS FOR ALASKA.
Carloads of CANNES to Be Sold to PrOspectors-
More Than One Use for the Other Animals.

The Frye-Bruhn Company, of this city,
is adding a novelty TO the shipment OF
live stock to Alaska, which contains. in a
composite way. the qualities of dogs and
cattle. The animal that is soon 20 be
pressed into service as a beast OF burden
TO its ultimate destination, Dawson City.
and then be converted into mutton" is
the Angora goat. and the firm OF butchers
and packers has already purchased 1.o00 Of
them at Pendleton. Or.
The story OF the purchase has gained
limited circulation, but Mr.. Bruhn said
yesterday that car load of the goats was
likely 10 be delivered In Seattle any day.
When speaking of the purchase, Mr..
Brghn stated that it was the belief OF both
himself and Dir. Frye that the goats can
be made TO take the place of dogs in haul
ing sleds and that they would have a
separate value as an article Of sustenance
after their ultimate destiny had been
worked out.
With the idea OF training the goats to
drag loads and make themselves generally
useful TO prospectors gcing over the
passes and down the long stretches OF
snow-coyered plain, sort OF kindergarten
has been established at Pendleton, and
many of the goats are being put through
their PAGES.
Mr.. Bruhn stated that the herd is COM
posed largely OF wethers, and that the
and equally wholesome and nutritious.
Besides the prime value as a means Of
hauling loads and the secondary import
ance of the Angora goat in its new field
OF operations as a food animal, it has an
additional value for its hide, which is COW
cred with a very long and valuable fleece.
They have been raised In large numbers
in Oregon for the past twenty years, and
the first are said to have been. imported
from the province Of Angora, Turkey. in
Asia Minor, out OF which they were SNUG
sled about twenty-five years ago and
brought to California.
They have been raised principally for the
value their hides gave them, and the guam
titles OF Angora rugs that have annually
been sold throughout the West are the
product Of the California and Oregon
ranges They are very hardy and are said
TO be good climbers.
The members of the Frye-Bruhn Com
pany have looked into the subject care
fully, and feel very much encouraged In
advance at the prospect for a new market.
II the goats are found 20 answer the double
purpose OF motive power and food their ad
vent In the far north will be hailed with
delight.
