AnROra Goats.

For several years past in many of
the western states and also in sections
farther east, experiments have been
made with the Angora goats, and the
results indicate that the breeding of
them will be profitable in any section
where sheep are successfully raised.
These goats breed and mature about
the same time as sheep and require
much the same treatment. The fleece
of the Angora goat is worth about
twenty per cent more than that Of
sheep, and their flesh is considered by
epicures as superior to mutton. They
do sell better than sheep, as the meat
is worth about the same price, and the
pelt much more. Angoras and sheep
may be raised together, as they never
cross breed.

Care in Feeding Youur Pins.

Too much highly concentrated food,
which Is generally corn, is the cause
of much Of the difficulty some growers
of pork find in raising young pigs. 1t
must be remembered that food which
will make bone and muscle is quite as
essential as fattening ration. When
the young pigs, and older ones, too,
for that matter, act restless and get to
gnawing their pens, stop feeding corn
for awhile and use bran and middling
with half pound Of linseed meal to
each animal, we'll mixed with the
grain, generally adding corn as they
improve in health. Good clover hay is
also an excellent balancing ration for
hogs and they should have all they can
eat of it. A good supply of salt and
ashes mixed and more or less charcoal
should also be kept at all times where
the hogs can readily get at 1t, for 1t
supplies material which will aid In
digestion, and something of the kind
is usually needed by animals which
have as little exercise as hogs gen.
orally.

Fruit Growing on Hill Land,

Some Of the best fruit in all sections
OF the country comes from the hill dis
tricts, where both climatic conditions
and soil seem to promote certainty of
crop and fine quality of fruit. Hills
bordering running water have rich sur
face soil, with porous subsoil resting
On lime rocks that are slowly disinte-
grating, and a natural drainage. But
location, however good, is not sufa-
cient. Orcharding requires dillgent,
patient work, knowledge of when, why
and how to spray and how to secure
protection from enemies. Never allow
trees to bear fully. Thinning is one Of
the best possible practices, thereby get
ting less fruit, but by far better grade,

THE DEMAND FOR HORSES
The Proportion Of Good Horse Flesh is n
Very Low in Thls COuptry

The Proportion Of Good Horse Flesh is Now
Very Low in This Country.
The best information available from
detached communities here and there
all over the United States, as well as
from general intelligence on the sub
ject, is to the effect that the proper
ton of good horse flesh to the popula-
ton Of the country has seldom, If ever,
been as low as 1t is now. The dis
couraging conditions surrounding the
horse markets everywhere have had
the natural effect of turning stockmen
away from the growing of good horses,
until the result alluded to is so plainly
manifest as to admit Of no question.
What may be expected as to the legiti-
mate result? Many things have &C.
Cured to reduce the demand for hors-
es for purposes Of transportation and
in the industries, but we fail to read
the signs Alright If the tendency, de-
spite all this, is not toward situation
in which the demand for good horses
will exceed the supply. That day may
not be just at hand, but 1t certainly
should be coming.

been notified, and were on the spot as

One That Will Reach Well I'm Into
the TaIIest Fruit Tree.
! Very few people realize what an
easy thing 1t is to make ladder that
will reach well up into the tallest fruit
trees. Instead of the heavy and cum
Drous articles now In use, light, man
ageab!e ladders may be made from ma
terial available in almost every local
lily. Either long and slender sapling
may be selected, or a piece of sawed
STUN with perfectly straight grain. A
Spit sapling Is much better, as there
Is no danger Of the cross grain and
weak spots, provided the tree has
grown straight and symmetrical. II
the trunk is large enough, it may be
split into four sections, and each Of
these dressed down to a strip about
three inches wide at one end, and an
inch and three quarters at the other,
the strip preserving the thickness of
one inch all the way up with a gradual
taper from base to top. When four
of these strips are prepared they are
marked with suitable spaces. Slots
about one inch by one and a half
inches made Of straight grained wood,
hickory being preferred, are placed at
appropriate distances, and upon either
side OF either end, the long strips are
nailed or fastened with strong wooden
pins. One ingenious farmer has made
ladder in this way, boring two holes
through the pieces and the cross slat
Or rung, and putting through and back
ike stitch piece of ordinary tele-
graph wire, the ends being drawn up |
lightly and twisted to make them Sc
cure. Properly planned and carefully
out together, a ladder OF this sort can
'e made strong enough to bear an Or
llnary man, and with further extern
lion and more slender top would sus-
ain the weight Of a lad to the top OF
he highest tree. A heavier lower Sec
ion with an extremely light extension
ould be made perfectly safe and prac-
ical. The strips on either side of the
ungs firmly bolted together make a
adder much stronger than that con-
tructed of the ordinary single piece on
ither side. During the cold weather,
'hen work is slack, matters of this
ort properly attended to will give re-
llts that will be found highly prof.
able when the busy season comes
round again.

Upr0OtinH Apple Trees,

If an apple tree becomes unthrifty,
or If for any other reason 1t is neces-
sary to displace 1t in the orchard, It
should not be cut down to leave its
stump an obstruction for many years
before 1t rots out. A little digging at
each side will bring the spade to roots
that support it. II these are cut and a
stout rope or chain is hitched to the
top OF the tree, it may be easily tilted
over, using the axe to cut other roots
as the tree bends slowly to the earth.
Then after getting the tree out. a wa
gonload of soil and sods from the road
side will make good land where the
tree had been,

Suicide of q Sioux Indian.

Campbell Chaska committed suicide
yesterday. Chaska was a full blooded
Sioux Indian. Ten years ago he grad

shortly after became famous by marry
Ing Cora Belle Fellows, of Washington,
D. c. In few years he drifted back to
the reservation and sunk to the level
of common blanket Indian. His
wife left him years ago. Chaska was
in jail at the time of his death, charged
with stealing horses. This is the first
instance in which full blooded Sioux
ever committed suicide.
