There are millions of acres of oak scrub
and pine barrens, high and dry and
healthy, flock of goats would do well in
the South and yield family a living that
could not be obtained from any other in
dustry. The writer has had experience
with them in California, and expresses
the above views with confidence says the
Farmer and Fruit Grower.
The Angora goat is the best known and
most extensively bred in this country at
the present time, and in some localities in
Western America the breed is cultivated
on large scale, taking the place largely
of sheep in the estimation of breeders
long experienced in that line of live stock
rearing; They even prove it by their act
that goats are far the more desirable and
profitable.
A correspondent in the Breeders Ga
zette alludes to visit of a goat farm in
Colorado, where nearly 800 of these ami
mails are kept for breeding purposes, the
proprietor having been a practical live
stock breeder for fifty years on the West
ern ranges, including horses cattle and
sheep, says there has been nothing to
compare in satisfaction, success and profit
TO Angora goats. The average for the
flock is four pounds of hair, which has
never brought less than % cents per pound
and from that up to S5.
For meat, the wether kids bring as
much as lambs. and In addition the hide
Is worth g to s., which makes them more
profitable than sheep; these goats are ex-
empt from scab, ticks and other skin dis
eases usual with sheep. The wool or hair
IS made into the finest fabrics used. The
Pullman upholstery cloth is said to be
made from Angora wool; babies cloaks
muffs, rugs and innumerabe uses which
are being developed each year maintain
the demand. The owner of this ranch all
luded TO wore an overcoat made of this
wool, which, for utility, says the CORE
spondent, beauty and airy lightness, would
put to blush the finest sealskin.

The people who claim everything for
chemical fertilizers and speak lightly OF
humus, often can attention to Sir j.
Lawe's experiment at Rothamsted as
proving that humus is entirely superflu-
GUS in the economy of plant growth Let
US see what ]. J. Wallis. superintendent
of Sir j. Lawes experimental station says
about it american Gardening):
Notwithstanding the fact that abundant
crops can be grown without the application
of carbonaceous manures, yet we have no
hesitation in stating that the humus mat
ter of soils is of great horticultural import
ance, for not only does it considerably
modify the physical properties of the soil,
but it is the principal properties of the
natural heterogeneous food of plants. Thus
a soil rich in humus is rich in nitrogen
and a soil poor in humus is poor in nitro
gen. But it is not unul the nitrogen of
the humus has assumed the form of nitric
acid that its fun effect upon vegetation is
realized. This change Is brought about by
the microderms present in all fertile soils
consequently it is the nitrogen of the hui
mus and not the carbon that is the val
liable ingredient.
1t has been thought that because the
vegetable matter in the soil, they are cap
able of feeding on humates, whereas il is
the nitric acid which is being gradually
formed and liberated from the mass that
causes the root accumulation; where the
nitrogen exists in the soil where the roots
of plants are certain to find their way.
From these facts we learn that while our
garden crops can obtain all the carbon
they require from the atmosphere; for
their nitrogenous good they are far more
dependent than has generally been sup
posed upon the stock which has accumu-
lated in the soil, or that which has been
applied in direct applications of manure.
If the quantity of nitrogen in our gar
den soil is one Of the main sources of their
fertility, the qae stion may beT asked: How
are we to explain the benefits of the vari-
Gus operations of the cultivator, such as
drainage, lining, tiilage of all kinds, and
the use of mineral manures, plaster, pot
ash and phosphoric acid? The answer is
that these practices are so many means
of liberating and utilizing the store of in
herent nitrogen in the soil, not of setting
free the carbonic acid from the humus.

Mission of the Merino.

The following is a portion of an address
delivered by John S. Beecher president of
the Standard American AIerlno Assocla-
ton, at it's last meeting:
The great influx of the foreign mutton
breeds was the natural result of dispo-
sition upon the part of our sheepmen to
take up something new and untried as a
cure for the evils of a mistaken national
economic policy. The lessons of expert
ence that came to the ones exploiting the
policy will scarcely need repeating during
this generation and the men who sacri-
feed their merino f1ocks will want some of
the blood again, and that from now on.
Fortunate the man who has the material
with which to recoup his fortunes, and
thrice fortunate the man who stayed to
the front through the thickest of the
breeds struggle and maintained the num-
Der and improved the quality.
Merino Mutton.-The facts demonstrate
ed by the experience of the last few years
is that well-fatted Merino mutton is as
good eating at the best of the so-called
mutton breeds; second, that Merino eve,
taken the year round, keep and care con-
sidered is the most satisfactory of all
sheep mothers. She will yield the heavi-
est and most valuable fleece of wool, and
when bred to a Southdown ram, will pro-
Quce an up-tO-uate mutton lamp SAUSAGE
tory alike to both feeder and butcher.
What type of AIerno will meet future
demands? We are living in a wonderful
age, a period of marvellous development
invention and discovery, and never before
was competition so sharp and persistent,
making necessary strict economy and besk
methods if success is to be attained in any
business or calling and the breeding of
domestic animals is no exception. In this
field the expense of care aad keep, on the
one hand, and the capabilities of the ami
NAL or race ION the other, are elements
for consideration and turn the scale for
good or otherwise.
Careless and slipshod methods in grow
ing the feeding crops to inferior and scrub
stock have passed into history, more es-
pecially the scrub animal Every indus
try must supply a need of mankind some
where. All through the vast sheep walks
of Argentina, Australia and the Transvaal
are numerous bands of almost countless
numbers of sheep, substantially Merino
blood, kept with wool production the para
mount object in view and necessarily from
the very order of things, inferior in type
to the improved flocks, limited in num-
bers, In the hands of the worlds great
breeders. With the upward movement of
wool in the American markets, these same
conditions will prevail again in the vast
plains of our country, west and southwest.
To furnish the material for the improve
ment of the fleece qualities of these sheep
will in the future, as IN the past, be the
mission of the stud hocks of American
MerinoS

The VineIess Yam.

Perhaps no other vegetable novelty
which has been introduced in the South in
recent years has caused more commend
than the vineless sweet potato. The experi-
mental stage has been passed. and the
value of this variety, like that of the
bunch Lima bean, has been established be-
yond a question. In bulletin No. % wa
stated that the tops of the vines Ceayes
and stems) could be cut with mower. Ie
has been stated as an objection that the
ground is usually too rough to run a
mower over. With nearly a level culture
we have grown over 800 bushels. per acre of
this variety, and all the tops could have
been easily cut with a mower The high
value of the tops for feed has been proy-
en-, but 1t is best to feed them green as
they do not cure well. Frequently it is
a good practice to NOW off the heavy tops
and leave the gritty runners on the
ground. Owing to the short vines of this
variety, which seldom grow over two tor
four feet long, l have planted il in th4
corn neGds and grown it with fair success
between the rows of corn. The ground can
be cultivated later and the crop can bss
harvested easier then when runnig VineA
are used. There Is only one strain of the
Vineless potato that we can indorse. There
are two others somewhat inclined to be
Viheiess, put the foliage is much less
dense, and the stems of the leaves are
not nearly so long nor so heavy as in the,
case of the true vineless. The other two.
which are, perhaps, varieties of the true
vineless, judging from the resemblance OF
the foliage and vines have not proven
themselves to be as productive here as the
true vineless. This may account for the
partial failure some have reported on the
Vinetess. In one of these strains there is
not only a variation in the vines and tops.
but also In the tubers. One has all the
flavor and color of the true vineless, but
the other resembles very much In color
and quality the pumpkin yam. This being
true, the Vineless is likely to become the
parent of an entirely new race of sweet
potatoes, ranging in quality from the soft.
sugary vans of the South to the sweet.

The exact origin of this breed is not def
nitely known, but probably 1t is purely
American, being developed from hogs in
New York and New Jersey, says the
American Agricuturist. II the breed did
not originate here, it was certainly de-
veloped in this country. 1t early began to
attartc attention because of its unique
color, and ability to lay on flesh rapidly.
The hogs had, from the first, splendid con-
situations, and consequent capacity for as
similating food, a characteristic which
they still retain. The sows are doubtless
the most prolific of any breed of swine in
existence. Young sows usually harrow
from eight to ten pigs at litter and from
ten to eighteen is not uncommon for old
sows, The pigs are very strong at birth,
and the soWs and pigs very seldom need
any attention at this time They almost
invariably impart to their Offspring their
wonderfully prolific breeding qualities, are
good, quiet mothers, supplied with gem
erous flow of milk, raise large. even lit
tiers, and other breeds, when crossed with
them, are greatly improved in vigor, and
as breeders and feeders.
Below, we give some extracts from a
test made at the Michigan experimental
S,ation The breeds represented were the
Duroc-Jersey, the Berkshire and the Po-
Iand-China, two of each, and all barrows
The pigs were weighed every fourteen
days during the experiment, and the gains
or losses, noted, and compared with the
food for the period, viz, from July 16, 1882
TO Jan. 81, 1890
The two Duroc-Jerseys gained In weight
from the beginning. Though as feshy as
any OF the specimens, they We're still maxi
ing excellent gains, and were feeding well
at time Of slaughter. Their average gain
was 1914 pounds per period, or pa pounds
per day, secured alta cost of Az pounds
OF grain for each pound Of gain in live
weight The average gain made by the
two Berkshires was 20 pounds per period,
or 2 pounds per day secured at cost Of
5A pounds OF feed for each pound OF gain.
The average gain per period OF the Pol
