AngOra Goats.

One of the interesting sights to be
seen was at the stock yards yesterday
morning where J. A. Snyder, OF Glen
coe, unloaded carload of Angora
goats. These were driven to his farm
near Mile Laos lake. There are
ninety-two of the animals. Mr.. Sny-
der has been raising these goats on his
farm near Glencoe and finds that thew
thrive in this climate even better than
in the warmer sections and also that
they grow heavier coats of wool here.
He finds that a timbered section is bet-
ter for them and hence has bought the
farm in this county and shipped the
goats here. There is large profit in
raising this stock as their pelts bring
high price in the markets. Farmers
very generally will be interested in
this venture of Mr.. Snyder's and it
will not be long before others will
have hocks, OF these goats. -Broi,aera
