the Department of Illinois, Grand
Army of the Republic issued by Com
mander-in-Chief Thistlewood, show
that the ranks of the veterans are be-
ing rapidly thinned by death. Last

mustered in, 272 were gained by trans
fer, and 855 were reinstated. At

bership of 81 ,6O4. Four posts surren-
dered their charters. The organization
expended $4,999.71 for charity.

GOATS or MALTA.

It is estimated that there are l2,Ooo
goats in Malta.
There are two varieties OF goats in
Malta the long haired and the short
haired.
Probably in no country has the rails
ing of fine milk goats been brought to
such degree of perfection as in Malta.
On a diet Of a little carob beans and
lot of weeds the average Maltese goat
provides four and half to five pints OF
milk daily.
The height of Maltese goat is about
2 feet inches, its weight nearly 100
pounds, and the cost of good milk an
imal is from $50 to $125.
Though no especial care is taken BY
the natives to preserve strains, the NAL
tese goat manages to keep up its repu-
tation for looks and productiveness.
Though there are many goats in Nal
Ia, they have no regular grazing ground,
but the herds are driven along the roads
and hillsides, where they pick up any
thing they can find.
