ABOUT #MoHAiR.

Il speaking 5f the raising Of An
CORA goats, the following facts in
regard to nohair may be Of inter
est to those who contemplate start
ing herd Of these valuable animals.
The annual production is about
four pounds to the fleece, although
this is largely determined by the
grade of the animal In the warm
er countries they are sheared twice
a year, otherwise they would lose a
great deal Of their fleece by she'd
ding, In colder climates they are
sheared only once a year, the fleece
averaging about 10 inches.
The length and fneness of mohair
usually determines its value, for
this reason the semi-annual clip sells
for less than the annual, but the diff,
ference is more than made mp in
the weight.
The two coats of hair are termed
mohair and kemp, and the kemp is
combed out before the mohair be
comes valuable

WHAT CAN BE DONE.

The question is often asked what
a man can do IN this section with
from $500 to 1000
Many instances Of success may
be cited where a beginning was had
with much less than shis, and it
would seem that this should be so
in land where conditions are so ia
vorabie, where the soil is SO rich
and productive, and where. in addi-
ton to our agricultural and horti-
cultural pursuits, there are so many
opportunities for the develop ment
of industries that are comparatively
new to our people.
The cost OF living is very reason
able, and the price of building ma
terial compares favorably with other
sections. while the opportunity for
getting our products to market are
excellent.
Our agricultural and horticuItur-
al opportunities are unlimited, and
orchard fruits, berries and grapes
can be produced here, that will
equal any fruit growing country.
For the sportsman birds are very
plentiful, while the variety and size
of the fish that reward the patience
of the angler is great.
In summing all up, it may truth

fully be said that no part OF
the country offers greater
Inducements to the seeker
after health, pleasure and

BEES AND HONEY.

The bee business can be made one
Of the most profitable industries in
our county. 1t Is a line Of industry
that requires but very little capital,
labor or attention, and brings in
larger returns for the time and mon
ey expended, than anything else
The large orchards, together with
the world of flowers and shrubs that
are rich in honey that grow wild on
uncaltivated land furnish abundant
material for the bees to work on.
The season in which honey can be
made here is much longer, and the
winters are exceedingly mild and as
consequence bees may gather honey
the greater portion of the year, and
will consume but very little of the
stored honey during the winter.
Honey made here is of very SUI
perior quality, and has a much bet
ter color than that shipped in, and
and as a result commands great
deal better price.
1t it said by experienced bee keep
ers that from 81 600 to 81 500 worth
Of honey can be taken from 100
stands of bees each and every year,
if they are properly looked after and
cared for.
Washington telegraph., 1903-06-05

1t is said that one of
the best plants for bees to
feed on, is Alfalfa, ard it
is said that honey made
from this plant has a fla
vor that is obtained from
no other plant grown in
