The Karoo and higher lands of the col
ony are the places where the Angora
hourishes best. Almost every farmer in
the Karoo has his flock of Angoras. some
several fiocks of several hundreds in each.
Every morning the fiocks are driven out
OF kraals or sheltered Enclosures into the
Veldt, where they are allowed to wander
and Craze all day, but at night they are
driven back TO the shelter of the kraal. af-
ter being taken to the dam to be watered
Angoras are sheared about June, when
a good fleece will average from five TO six
pounds in weight, with hair from four to
six inches long. About November the goats
tend to shed their hair, but rather than
lose 1t the farmer again shears in October.
After shearing the wool is packed into
arge bales, which are fastened securely
with iron bands; it is then exported to
England for manufacture, a large part
going to Yorkshire In 1895 mohair to the
value of 7l0,s6 pounds was exported, and
at the present time one-tenth of the total
British supply is received from the Cape.
Among the most dreaded foes of the
timid little Angora are the jackal, the red
lynx and the baboOn; the two former kill
the kids for their flesh, but the balloons
rip open the udders Of the ewes in search
of milk, and even open the stomachs of
the kids for the sake of the curdled milk
they may contain. The first two animals
are poisoned and hunted down with dogs
where possible, and to keep down the ba-
boons shooting parties are frequently or
ganized. By way of encouraging the ex-
tinction Of these pests the government
pays IS tail for jackals and Is a tail for
baboons.

This little hotel is 500 mics farther north
than Hammerfest. Some idea of its ex-
treme northern situation can be gained
when ii is stated that even the quarters
of the present Jackson-Harmswort ex-
pedition in Franz-Josephland are hardly
I9O miles nearer 10 the pole. Compared
with other high northern points which
nave in one way or another become prom
lnent, the ones which most forcibly sug-
gest themselves are those which have been
associated with the various Arctic expe-
dItions.
Thus the hotel and the postoffice occupv
nearly the same latitudinal position as

provisions enough to guard against being
showed up for a long time. The mall
which goes to and from the little post
Office is conveyed by special messenger to
the northern terminus of the steamship
service, which connects with the Sofotes
Islands. The intermediate passage is not
as perilous, especially during the summer
months, as might be Imagined In fact,
in that region the ice breaks and leaves
the landscape comparatively clear during
July and August, so that the effete sum-
mer tourist may make an Arctic trip with
little II any more discomfort than he
would have in going to Europe.
Provisions are brought to the hotel in
the same way, and it may, for the reason
that there is always a good supply on
hand, come to be viewed as a haven of
safety by future Actic explorers who fail
to make connection with the pole. At
any rate, it is unique of its kind, and GER
