Bad Lands For Angora Goats.

Bad Lands For Angora Goats.
In reply to an inquiry of a western
stockman regarding the adaptation of
the Bad Lands of this state for the
raising of Angora goats, the American
Sheep Breeder says.
2 The climate, elevation, tempera-
ture, browse, and grasses of Billings
county are all exceedingly favorable to
goat and mohair raising, and it COM
pares favorably with any part Of the
United States. In Meade county Of
the Black Hills district 100 miles south
of you in South Dakota, Farwell & Son
are growing long staple mohair, which
sells readily at a dollar a pound. In
Montana 100, 200, 800 and 400 miles to
the west and north of you, Angoras
are giving splendid account of them
selves both in fleece and flock condi-
tons. Your Bad Lands are a. natural,
not to say ideal, Angora territory.
Much of the United States is better
Angora country than South Africa,
through most of our American breed
ers are yet behind the Cape Colony
breeders in breeding skill. The sam
pies Of long African mohair illustrated
in the September American Sheep
Breeder were selected from the best
long staple fleeces grown in that coun-
try, but their length has many times
been duplicated by American breeders.
The average African fleece is denser
and heavier than average American
fleece because length, density, oil and
weight Of fleece have been carefully
bred for in South Africa for years at
the expense of quality, which Ameri-
can mohair manufacturerers declare
Is much more in evidence in many
American clips. 4

The Emmons County Editor Announces
i His Candidacy for the Legislature.
Emmons County Record: The
Steele Ozone has been misinformed
as to legislative candidates in EN-
mons county. The editor of the Rec
ord is q candidate for the lower
house of the legislature, and will be
elected-always provided, Of course,
that he gets enough votes. One thin.,
too. is certain: If elected, every hour
Of the session will find him in attend
ance there; and to the best of his
ability he will strive, If chosen, to
properly represent the people of EN-
mons county in the legislature. He
has no money to use illegitimately in
the campaign, and he would not so
use it If he had. On his side, at least,
the campaign shall be fairly and
squarely fought. No one has had-or
shall have this time-cause, after it is
over, to accuse him of double dealing.
During his twenty years residence in
this county he has striven to conduct
himself as an honest man. And he
will not, while going down the hill of
life, give cause for deserving a differ.
ent reputation. If elected, he will
thoroughly appreciate the favor. If
defeated he will not complain, and
he certainly will not bear malice
against any man who by fair means
assists in it's accomplishment. But he
hopes, and sincerely believes, that
boodleism and rascality, misrepresent-
alton and false pretenses, will not be
allowed to win in this campaign.

SWAMPED IN
MAMMOTH CAVE

LOUISVILLE, Ky, Jan. ia boat
containing 10 delegates TO the convention
Of the League OF commission Merchants
was swamped IN Echo river, Mammoth
cave, and the occupants only escaped
drowning by the coOlness Oh the guide,
John Nelson, and the heroic action Oh
Charles a. BIuenibronner OF PIttsburg
Ihe root OF the cave over Echo river Is
arched, and the space IN the center owing
to an unaccountaDle rise in the river, was
only two and a half feet above the water.
IN order to insure the passage OF the boat
the men and women we're forced TO stoop
over. At one place the boat sweryed TO
one side, rakIng the heads OF those occu-
pants seated next to the bank. These
leaned further forward, which lowered one
end OF the boat, and the water began TO
flow in rapidly. The guide saw the dan
ger and called to MIR. Muehlbronner to
Jump and take the chain. This he did,
landinQ on steep bank which offered
only a slight foothold. Lying down on
his face he held to the chain and pulled
the boat toward the bank The boat sank
in eight feet OF water. Further back,
where there was no landing, the water is
eighteen feet deep.
BY the light of a single lantern the party
escaped by climbing over Mr. Muehlbron-
ners PROSTATE form, and after waiting
several hours for boat were brought out
in safety.
