REMOVING OLD CAR TRACKS.
Fourth and r Streets Now Being Re
"a. stored to Good Condition

After nearly three years of abandon
ment the Washington Traction and Elec-
trio Company have begun to remove the
car tracks on Fourth Street, between q
Street and New York Avenue northwest.
These tracks, with 5ot hers notably those
on p Street. were abandoned when the
company took charge of the independent
lines and eo-ordinafed them into a sys-
TEN. The company has been very negli-
gent with reference TO. the removal of
these tracks and the matter has been of
considerable anxiety to the Commission
eTs OF the District.
Eighteen months ago the company was
asked by the District authorities to show
cause why the unused tracks should not
be taken up and the street. which was
then in bad condition, restored to a safe
and smooth driveway. The company
made certain representations to the Com
missioners that they had In view the
possible Improvement Of these tracks and
asked time in which TO perfect their
plans. In June, 1900, the Commissioners
were about TO serve formal notice on
the company to remove it's tracks within
sixty days, which the law authorized them
to do. But just then the health of the
Engineer Commissioner became impaired
and he left the city for a long stay. cX-
tending into the autumn months After
his return business mad so accumulated
and the execution of some Of the street
contracts occupied attention for several
months, and II was not possible to take
up the matter until late in the spring.
After serving on the company several
informal notices that the District desired
that the tracks should be removed and
the roadway restored to good condition
the Commissioners, under the advice of
their attorney, sixty days ago sent no
tiCe to the officials of the company in
forming them that the abandoned tracks
must be removed within sixty days from
the date> of the notice or the company
would be hned so per diem for every day
thereafter that the tracks remained upon
the streets.
The company bided its time and waited
htty-nine days before beginning opera ,

The cases recently instituted against a
number of merchants in the Police Court
for violation OF the regulation governing
the opening and closing of CRATE doors

day The action was taken after James

Lawyers Think the uid section Re-
gnrdinE Divorces should Be Re
tnincd-ChanEes in the Method of
Committing Lunatics Proposed.
The committee OF the Washington Bar
Association which, with the assistance of
the members Of the bench of the Supreme
Court of the District, has been engaged
during the last month revising the new
code Of laws for the government Of the
District expects to finish the work by the
close Of The week. The code as adopted
at the last session Of Congress has been
gone over section by section. and such
changes suggested as s~are believed will
be necessary to adapt the law for the
government of the District of Columbia.
The most radical change suggested, 1t
IS said, has been made in reference to the
law of divorce as contained in the new
code. According TO the provisions-of the
new law divorce can only be granted on
statutory grounds. This, it is believed
by a large majority Of the members of
the local bar, would work to the detri-
menJ and inconvenience OF many persons
who under ordinary circumstances, would
have good and sufficient grounds on which

Under the provisions of the code re-

believed. would be unjust, and ii is un-
derstood that the committee on revision
will recommend that the divorce law be
amended by striking out the sections in
-eerporated and substituting those Of the
old code.

will be recommended in reference 10 the

Growing Gras, In North Georgia.

Growing G!aSs III North Georgia.
QUESTION. -Propounded by a gentle
man living in one Of our northwestern
states who is thinking OF moving to
Georgia.
/. What kind of grass grows Oh the
mountains Of northern Georgia?
2 will they produce blue grass?
3. How much are they worth per acre?
4. How many cattle will 100 acres
support?
5. How long will they have to be fed
in winter?
6. Could we get river bottom land to
raise grain on, and at how much an
acre?
z. What are fat steers worth a pound,
live weight?
Answers to the above questions:
/. On the mountains and in the val
leys of North Georgia are several native
grasses, such as sage, Bermuda, orchard,
crab and another grass, which grows i'll
punches or tufts, the name of which is
unknown to us.
2. Blue grass does well over a great
part of the mountain section of Georgia
8. Lands of this part of the state are
worth from $4O0 to 5000 an acre; some
of the best improved lands from $1,000
to $4,000.
4. The number of cattle that 100 acres
can support will depend upon the pas
turage. Some of the lands yield from
5000 to 5000 pounds of hay to the acre

may judge from that
5. The cattle require feeding from
four to five months during the winter

The following question was asked OF
the Department few days ago; Does il
pay to keep Angora goats in Georgia?
Mr. J. c. Dalzall Of Union county an
swerad this question very completely i'll
talk with 4 reporter of the Atlanta
Constitution He expresses the opinion
that ''the Angora goat industry, which
is already assuming immense proper
tionS in the United States. could be
made to make the poor whites of our
| southern mountains the most independ'
ent and prosperous rural community i'll
the land.
1.-The Angora goat is highly profitable
much more profitable than sheep, even
| under the most favorable conditions.
There is strong and constantly grow
| ing market for the hides and hair, and
the meat is equal to mutton. The skins
| of Angora kids are in great demand by
manufacturers of the finest leather
| goods 1t costs absolutely nothing to
raise the Angora in our Georgia noun
tains. Even with the ground covered
with snow for weeks at a time, these
| goats will rustic enough twigs and bark
to keep them hearty, if not fat, and or
dinarily they will roll in flesh on what
COW or sheep would reject. They eat
any kind of weed Or shrub, and require
only such shelter as nature furnishes.
| The Angora breeder need have no fear
of wolves'and sheep killing dogs Just
! let such varmints tackle his goatship.
He will do the rest. Angora goats propa.
gate fast and are readily domesticated,
making great pets.

To anyone who is interested, l would
suggest that they write to the agricul-
tural department at Washington, or gel
their congressman to procure for them
the very complete pamphlet on Angora
culture printed by the government.
What Mr.. Dalzell says is confirmed
by the yearbook of the United States
Department of Agriculture for 1898,
which contains an illustrated article en-.
titled "Keeping Goats For Profit" We
do not wish to be understood as advising
every farmer to keep goats. But there
are opportunities for the mountaineer'
