There is no denying the fact that a great portion or the mountain range of the county Is well adapted to goat raising and there are mlny good sized herds Of the hairy animals. Some do not have the hair they should to be profitable from that s,urce, but they are being bred with Anpora blood steadily, aud will soon be in shape to produce goodly quan' lity of goat hair From the number of wethers marketed we are pretty well assured that at least v per ceht of the mutton we eat and enjoy Is goat venison, which is really better than lamb, the flesh being more firm and better favored. Your Rambler has about decided that when his ramblings for the summer are over he will locate good brushy goat ranch and take to raising mutton and iDcidently some mohair, unless the cattlemen should first take our hair of for presumiDg to thus enter the live stock field. What we want is d partner who fully understands the goat business. The right man can ap- ply at this office by mail"
