Angora Goats.

A number o. inquiries have been
received recently from several
Northern people concerning the
Angora goat, and special informa-
tion is asked for AS to the profits
Of this branch OF stock industry
and whether the lands in the South
are well adapted to this business.
Angora goats resemble sheep
more than any other animal in
their habits of herding and feeding,
as wei as in the usefulness OF their
outer coating and in the excellent
qualities OF their flesh. The farm
can have no scavenger equal to a
flock OF goats. However thick the
briars or tangled underground, a
flock Of goats will quickly destroy
them, and No food is so highly
relished By them as that which is
utilized by no other domestic ami
NAL. For clearing up the under
brush Of a woodland pasture flock
OF goats is equal to many laborers,
and they will thrive and fatten on
their labor. The flesh OF the goat
is very palatable and healthful
and the cheapest which can be
produced. Mr.. Stratton of Cum
berland county, Tennessee, inform
ed the writer that the cost OF rails
ing goat is not as much as the
cost OF raising a chicken on a
mountain plateau.-Southern Farm
Magazine.

The Commonwealth expects to close
its case in the Jett- White trial at Gym

was taken Saturday afternoon to allow
the attorneys to look over some authori.
ties and prepare for the closing testi-
mony for the State. Henry Freeman
was the most important witness intro
duced during the day. He testified
that on the night Of the murder Jett
and White were at his saloon. Jett
told him a dog had been killed and aft
erwards explained that he meant james
Marcum. Two more rewitnesses told Of
seeing Jett emerge from the side door
Of the courthouse after the shooting,
and two witnesses corroborated Mrs
Johnson's story Of seeing Tom White
and other men at the rock quarry near
Marcum's residence Goodloe Combs, a
witness in the case, died at his boarding
house Saturday morning after a brief
illness. Coroner Blair decided after an
investigation that Combs death was

down beyond the elevator and

Our last weeks letter brought us
to the first lodging place, near the
edge OF the Park proper.
Right here 1t would probably be
well to give few facts about Yel-
lowstone Park and the way 1t is
managed,
In the northwest corner Of Wy
oming, In the heart Of the Rocky
Mountains, is located Yellowstone
National Park, reservation be-
longing to the Z. S. government.
IL is 65x75 miles In area, being four
times rs large as the State OF
Rhode Island, with which fact we
often joked the member OF our
party who hailed from "Little
Rhody." No Valley within the
limits Of the Park has an elevation
OF less than 5000 feet, while many
OF the mountain peaks rise from
10000 TO II 900 feet above sea leve'.
YELLOWSTONE Lake has an altitude
OF 5000 feet, l5x20 miles In size,
and is the largest body OF water in
North Amorica at this elevation.
Three uf the lorgest rivers in the
United States have their source in
the Park. They are the Missouri,
Yellowstone and Columbia. But
the fame OF Yellowstone Park is
due to the many curiosities aud
freaks OF nature, which character
ize 1t as the wonderland OF the
world.
A lone trapper who visited this
region In 1907 Is believed to have
been the frat white man to view
the phenomena of nature so Won
derfully displayed here. His re-
ports were laughed at as creations
OF a vivid Imagination. 1t was not
until 1868 that public attention was
attracted to this wonderful section.
The government sent investigating
parties few years later and found
such remarkable features that the
great idea was conceived OF pre-
serving 1t as n national park.
This plan was promptly carried In
to execution, and as the years go
by the wisdom OF the act becomes
more and more apparent.
Tho Park is under the supervis.
ion of a US. Army officer, who has
with him ut all times enough SOL
diers TO patrol the reservation and
protect the wonders OF nature and
the abundance OF wild animals
from injury. improvements in the
way Of good roads and other neces-
sary conveniences have been made
and are constantly receiving ad-
ditions. Well graded roads lead
to all interesting parts OF the Park.
There are few miles OF macadam.
Sprinkling wagons are kept going
on the twenty miles OF road most
used, all through the dry summer
season. The roads become disa-
greeably dusty in extremely dry
weather.
Several years ago company
now known as the Park Hotel AS
sociatIon secured lease from the
government allowing 1t to build
and operate system OF hotels and
lunch stations and run stage coach
lines in the Park. The company
now has four large, well-equipped
hotels, each with an electric light
plant, water system, bath rooms,
sc. A private telegraph and tele'
phone line connects them all and
is accessible TO the Western Union
at Gardiner, the northern entrance
The tour OF the park requires six
days and the government restricts
| tha onp,na,y tn n n,avi m N N,
charge OF $50 for each person using
its service. The company has
very shrewdly made the pric,
$49,50, giving it the appearance o.
a bargain and thus rendering the
trip doubly attractive to the ladies
This price includes all necessary
expenses during the six days
