Angora goats is theimprovement

this should lie adt,tt the clip OF

is about four pounds per goat,
while the average clip of wool is

In comparing goats and sheep
for profit, the fact should be TAX
en- into consideration that goats
will thrive on land that will not
suppart shep, hence the cost of
range as compared with the val
ue of the output is very much IN
favor of goats. We. are not pre-
pared to advocate the keeping of
goats instead of sheep, on farms
that are we'll cleared and where
the land is already valua bic, but
we believe that profitable COM
blnation OF goats and sheep is
possible on any farm. Whether
sheep, cattle or even hogs are the
main stock crop, few goats live
on brush and fhc tufts Of grass
between pasture bites that other
stock leave
Angola goats may be success
fully grown in every state in the
union, and they will live on any
kind of feed that will keep other
stock, but certain conditions
must be observed. While they
stand the cold well, wet weather
affects them more than any other
stock; for this reason they must
have shelter from the raid, es-
pecially the cold rains of fall,
winter and spring. The forma-
ton of their hair, being so curly
and loose. permits the rain to
soak into it and through it, and
holds the moisture for long
time, thereby rendering the ami
NAL exceedingly uncomfortable.
If shelter is provided they are
quick to take advantage of 1t
when storms are gathering.
They are good at taking care of
themselves if given an opportun.
lty; for this reason they require
less attention than sheep, but
they require reasonable care and
proper provision for their COM
tort the same as do othe stock.

Feeding Value of Timothy,
Sorghum and LcnumeS.

Sorghum and Lceumes.
The results of feeding expe-
rlment conducted at the Nilsson
ri station have recently been re-
celved from Director III. ]. Wa
tiers. The object of this expert
ment was to compare the feeding
value of a number of forms of
roughage. Yearling steer
were used In the test, each lot
being led a similar lot of grain.
From December, 1899, to April,
1900, during period of 1O1 days
Jour steers made an average
daily gain per steer of .65 pounds
during which time they were fed
four pounds of shelled corn each
per DAY and all the timothy they
Mould eat. Another lot fed the
same quantity of corn and cow
pea hay for roughage gave an av-
erage daily gain of l.54 pounds.
A second trial was made Begin
ming January, 1901, and continu-
ed Tor a period of eighty days,
during which time each lot of
four yearling steers consumed
six pounds of corn per day in ad-
ditlon to the roughage, which in
the four lots consisted of timo-
thy, clover, millet and sorghum.
In this case the average daily
gain per steer was one pound in
the timothy lot. two pounds in
the clover lot, 81 pounds in the
millet lot, and 50 pounds in the
sorghum lot. A third trial be-
ginning December, 1901, and
continuing for 100 days, gave the
following results: The timothy
made an average daily gain per
steer of Isl pounds, those fed
clover l.92 pounds, another lot
TED alfalfa Los pounds, while lot
No. 4 fed on sorghum gained
IS pounds.
The results as given above
would indicate that foods con-
tanning relativ ely large amount
OF protein, such as clover, COW
peas and alfalfa, are much supe-
rior when fed in conjunction
with corn to young steers to
such foods as timothy, millet and
sorghum. In the first trial cited
the gain produced by feeding
twenty-nine bushels of corn in
conjunction with timothy hay
vas 262 pounds, while this
amount of corn combined with
COW pea hay produce a gain of
h22 pounds, or more than 213
times as much. In the second
trial thirty-tour bushels of corn
and timothy hay made 31S
pounds of gain, while the same
OF corr, together with an
ample supply of clover hay, pro-
duced 64l pounds or little more
than twice as much. In the same
time the millet lot gained 1l9
pounds and the sorghum lot
gained loo pounds.
A somewhat better showing
was made by timothy in the
third trial, the gain being in this
instance $50 pounds, while the
same amount of corn com bined
with clover produce d gain of
92S pounds. During the same
period the sorghum lot gained
OH pounds. In addition to the
larger gains made by the lots re-
ceiving the legume hay, Prof.
Waters says that these steers
much more bloom, shed
their winter coats earlier and
showed more evidence OF supe-
rior thrift and vigor.
In the ligh of the above facts
it would seem that farmers and
stockmen should endeavor 10
grow as much clover and sell rs
little as possible. If hay is to be
disposed Of, it should be timo;iiy,
since it sells for a

are usually grateful for the infor-
nation. Nor is this all the work
in practical dairy education that
has resulted from these sources.
They have taught the owners or
patrons of the creameries that it
is better to employ such men as
managers than those who had
learned enough about engineer
ing to run the steam outfit, but
really had not learned anything
about butter-making, or the hand
ling of milk, cream or butter.
That class of men would do to
work in a saw-mill, or possibly a
cider mill, but they are not cheap
help at any price in a creamery
or cheese factory. We read of
one of them, short time ago,
who had managed a creamery for
two seasons, just long enough to
realize his own deficiency. He
spent winter at dairy school,
and the next season demanded
and received about twice the SAL
airy he had before, and the i'm
provement in the quality of the
butter proved him to be worth it.
This change III the methods has
made it possible for the dealer to
have car loads of bntter so uni.
form that one tub may be taken
as sample Of the whole.
When one gets a COW that
make S phenomenal record for
week he should not figure that
her record for the year will. be
tifty-two times that amount.
The years record may not even
'qral that of some which fail to
give as much in seven DAYS,
whether it is based on produc.
ton of milk or butter fat. No
horseman expects the champion
trotter or PAGER to go an hour at
his record speed, or to make as
many miles in day at moderate
speed, as a horse that has less
speed, but better endurance. If
we remember rightly, the first
horse to go twenty miles in an
hour could not be driven a mile
in less tnan 2.4O, which was
thought good speed then, but
he had the a bility to take a steady |
gait and maintain it for sixty
minutes. Just so with cows
We have had one that would give
twenty-four quarts day when
fresh, bit no food that we could |
give her could keep her above
half that amount up to SIX
months after the calf was drop
ped, and nine months after that
e 'ent it was not easy to get
enough to pay for the milking, if
she was due to calve in three
months more. We attribute
tina, to some bad handling when
she was young, in scanting her
feed and allowing her to go dry
three months in the year, but it
may have been constitutional or
hereditary, as it is with some
others, to keep on giving milk al
most or quite up 10 the time of
calving. Yet we think much de-
Ponds upon the treatment of the
htifer with her first calf. WEI
would not allow her to drop her
second calf until fifteen months
after the first, if this was drop
ped at two years old or less, and
we would try to keep her in milk
for fourteen months of that time
if possible, though we did not get
two quarts day from her,
Shrinking in milk too rapidly af-
ter calving, and going dry too
soon before the next calf is born,
becomes a matter Of habit, and,
like other bad habits, is not cas-
,lv cured

CLEWS WEEKLY LETTER.

New York, June 16.-The crop stu
alton as a whole is very encouraging.
In spite of the reduction Of wheat
acreage the present outlook is for a
crop of about 64O,OOO,0 900 bushels. This
is more than 100,00O,O00 decrease COM
pared with the crop of 1901; but last
year wa a banner year, and the pros
pect is that we shall have a wheat
crop that has been exceeded only once;
that was by the crop of 1898. when the
total yield was 675, 900, 1000. Nothing
is yet definitely known concerning the
corn crop, though a larger acreage is
considered inevitable in view Of recent
high prices, and a second failure such
as last year is beyond all reasonable
probabilities. So, the country seems
fairly assured of ample wheat and corn
crops. The same is true of cotton, in
which the slightly increased acreage
and improved conditions suggest a
somewhat larger crop than the last one.
If these three important crops turn
out we'll we may be assured of another
season of good business in the south
and west. a good surplus for export
is highly desirable, as the recent tend
ency of our foreign trade has been
towards decreased exports and dimin-
ished trade balances: and it would be
more convenient for us to ship corn,
cotton and wheat next winter than
gold. of which we may have plenty,
but which it is desirable to retain if WE
are to preserve easy money rates.

INDIAN RESERVATION IN NORTH
AND SOUTH DAKOTA MAY NOT

BE OPENED.
Washington, June 17.-Widespread
interest is manifested in Minnesota,
Wisconsin, Michigan and other North
western states in the proposition to
open for settlement a large tract of
agricultural lands within Indian reser-
vations in North and South Dakota.
Two bills for this purpose are now
pending and both have passed the sen
ate and are before the house. One
provides for the opening of a tract in
Gregory county, S. D., and the other
authorizes the sale to settlers of a tract
embraced within the Devils Lake reser-
walton in North Dakota. An impress
sion has been created that these bills
have been enacted into law and that
preparations are now being made by
the land commissioner to open the
lands under the homestead laws. From
present indications it is not likely that
either of the bills will pass the house
at this session. Both of them involve
large appropriations to reimburse the
Indians for the land.
