THE GOATHERD

The fence problem for Angora goats
is solved by ]. B. Jenkins of Essex

way compared with western ideas We
keep cows for butter making, hens,
geese, turkeys, sheep and last, but not
least, Angoras. 1 have rocky, billy
pasture of more than 100 acres; bushes
Of all kinds, including birch. For years
we have mown the bushes, but seldom
kill any. But now that the Angora has
come the bushes have to stand back.
They are the best paying of all stock
enumerated with us, and they have
come to stay. 1t is bushes with them,
and, for relish, grass. They are al
ways fat, ready for the butcher, and
no better meat do we have on our
table. No sickness, none killed by dogs;
they come to their house every night
without help. The most care we have
Is dipping them twice year. The kids
are hardy. We have saved one for ev-
cry doe that kids. Most of them kid in
January. They are out every day ex-
cept when rainy.
Our fence is stone wall and two
wires. Posts are on pasture side. That
is our way for cattle. For Angoras and
sheep sticks are driven in the wall and
nailed on post or stake. On top of that
are put small poles and brush. IL nc

the neighbors who have none with
meat. Our cattle and Angoras go to

more real gain in one Angora than tive

Forty cents pound is about the price
for unwashed fieeces. Ours average
about three pounds. The kids carry
their fleeces till the next year in April.

PRODUCERS Of
MUTTON ano WOOL

The Texas newspapers are publishing
articles regarding the disposition at
present existing In that state to go out
OF cattle and invest in sheep The Dali
las News and San Angelo Standard
both contain long articles giving the
names OF large number of stockmen
who have either invested in sheep or
are about to do so.
The Dallas News says that it is evil
dent from the prominence of the cattle
men who are thus engaging in the sheep
business as an adjunct to the cattle
business that the movement means
something more than an experiment
1t may be accepted as an unquestion-
able fact that there are weighty rea-
sons why the accumulated prejudices
of years can thus be laid aside and
leading cattlemen engage in line of
business that they have SO long regard
ed as almost, If not quite, degrading.
The San. Angelo Standard says on
the same point:
THE old time theory that sheep
tramp out and destroy the range has
been wholly exploded by observation
and experience. In this section of Tex
as today. it is stated, the best grass
ranges are those which have been close
~ eaten of by sheep for the past IF
teen years. The early weed growth is
kept back, the grass is allowed to mat
and cover we'll the surface of the soil
and the result is uniform green coat
