Cashmere goats which furnished the fiber for the costly Cashmere shawl, and they were called Cashmere goats for many years after their introduc- ton into the United States. The records show that as late as 1861 MT. William M. Landrum, the veteran breeder of Angoras, was awarded 8 silver goblet and $25 in cash for the introduction of the first Cashmeres lAngorasl into California.
 The first Cor Davis) importation of Angoras was frequently exhibited at fairs, and always attracted much att tention. The reports made by the officials of fair associations were al- ways favorable, sometimes f1attering, and as is known, after years of ex- perience, not always correct. az
 All of the Davis importation of pure-bred Angoras were purchased in 1853 by Col. Richard Peters, of At lanta, Ga, with the exception of one owned by Col. Wade Hampton, of South Carolina; one sold by Dr. Da- wis to MT. Davenport, of Virginia, and one to Mir. Osborne, of New York Col. Peters later imported others from Asia Minor, winch did not prove to be very satisfactory, as they were gummy. The Savannah Republican in April. 1860, said that Col. Peters was selling his goats at very high prices, having received $1,5oo for one buck; that the president of an Illi-

GOATS IMPORTED BY Dr. JAMES B. DAVIS IN Ie4e.

l no1s fair was so pleased with one of the bucks on exhibition there that he
 offered Col. Peters "the weight of the ] buck in silver for it." Col. Peters is looked upon as the real founder of
 the Angora goat industry in the coun-
 try. Although Dr. Davis had crossed
 the Angoras with common goats to
 some extent, it was Col Peters who l demonstrated the possibility of
 erecting an excellent fleece bearing
 flock by judicious crossing with com
 mon goats.
 Of recent years some excellent
 individuals have been brought from 1 Cape Colony. Turkey has since 1881 prohibited the eNportation of An | goras, and Cape Colony, observing With jealous eye the rapid progress
 now being made in the United States,
 has placed an export duty upon An goras of Z 100 ($4s6.65). w. Hammond
 Iooke, wfi1ing of the 1nohair industry | of Cape Colony in the Agricultural Journal of the Cape of Good Hope, says that they have nothing to fear from Turkey or Australia, but that the United States gives them more concern, as the breeding of Angoras
 for mohair is no longer considered
 an experiment in the United States. Previous to the outbreak of the civil war there were many fair-sized 1 f1ockS in the south and southwest. There were smaller fiocks in many of the northern and western states. After the war interest in Angoras in the south and north died away to
 great extent, and the far west be- gan to take up the subject to some extent, many of the breeders from | other sections removing to California. MT. Julius Weyand, secretary of the Angora Goat Breeders association of ! California, in report to that or ganization in 1891, gives a brief review
 of the industry in that state. He says that in 1885 there were about 100000 Angora goats in California, but
 between that date and 1889. owing to
 the admission into the United States
 of mohair as carpet wool, and thus paying but 21s cents duty per pound, the number decreased to 55,000. MT. C. P. Bailey is authority for the state- ment that practically all the goats in California are of the Angora breed.
 Large focks of Angoras have been sent from California and Texas into Nevada, Oregon and Washington, where they have been divided into smaller focks and become the prop- erty of many different farmers. Texas has also sent many over into New Mexico.
 Although the foregoing facts show that the Angora goats have been slow in gaining standing among the in- dustries of the country, it can hardly be doubted that there are now in mo- tion such energies as will place the industry upon a rational basis. It is believed that the Angora industry is already emerging from the chaos which has enveloped it for 50 years past, and that it will soon be as firm ly established as any other stock in- terest in the United States.

Raising Amgoru Goats for Pyuh m 7bis C0uuty

After Many Years of Experiment the Indust Seems Now to Be Growing

D DREEDING Angora goats is an in- dustry to which considerable at
 tention has been given in this country in an experimental way for a number of years, but it was not until quite recently that the industry gave promise of assuming profita ble proportions. Some enthusiasm in this direction was aroused by the publication of a pamphlet on the subject by the agricultural depart ment in 1898, written by Captain AL mont Barnes, of the division of sta tistics of the department. The article set forth, among other things, the great value of the goat skins which we import annually, and how we our selves might easily produce them; the usefulness of the carcass for food, especially of the Angora breed; the exceedingly small expense involved in raising the animal, owing to his habits of feeding upon the vegeta- tlon which is in greatest abundance and which other ruminants refuse; the million acres of land in the United States that might be made available for goat raising which other wise would remain, IS heretofore, un- employed.
 Since that time the department has given considerable attention to the subject, and now publishes another valuable pamphlet written by George Eayette Thompson, of the bureau of
