City live stock show one of Mrs. Arm
er's entries. a pure blood Angora ram,
took first prize in the Angora class,
anu sold next day for $4,000. Another
Angora belonging to the Taylors ut
Lake Valley near, Hillsboro sold for
almost as large sum. Mrs Armer
today is a rich woman. Every dollar
OF her money has been made in rails
ing Angora goats.
The Angora requires three things
water, rough food and home to which
he can return with his followers every
night. for unlike the sheep. the
goat will not thrive when driven day in
and day out from feeding ground to
feeding ground The nights are chill
even in Southern New Mexico, and in
winter especially the Angora requires
a shelter. With this small amount of
care, good water and plenty of under
brush to feed on, the Angora thrives
in New Mexico, and his number is
multiplying amazingly.
One corporation owning ranches in
the mountains of Grant county now is
grazing between nine thousand and
ten thousand Angoras. This company
is one of the largest in the business.
For the housing of ne goats in win
ter mile of sheds has been built. The
company owns and controls severai
small mountain ranges which to the
inexperienced eye would not seem to
offer support for grasshoper, but
the thousands of Angoras thrive among
the rocks.
While the industry is growing
amazingly, and while the Angora re-
quires little attention during all but
the breeding season. yet the industry
is not one to be entered into without
some capital and much experience.
''One of the marvels of the age is
the appearance of daily paper for
women in Pekin, China, edited by
woman, the only one to be found any
where in the world,' said Miss Kate
G. Lamson, at Portland, Me-, in her re-
port as foreign secretary to the wo-
mans board of missions. 1T is not
a Christian woman who edits it, and
it is filled with strange and new
thoughts. Through this paper num-
bers of Chinese women who never be-
fore have had the opportunity are
coming under the influence of the mis-
sionaries."
Nine. Curie, who, with her husband,
discovered radium, is the first woman
who has even been given chair in
the ancient Sorbonne university, in
France. She began her lectures last
month and has already astounded her
learned confreres by unostentatiously
sweeping out her own laboratory and
persistently refusing any demonstra-
ton to her behalf from the women of
Paris who wished to fittingly celebrate
the occasion.

Winter Cookery.


About the first thing the average
man or child thinks about as the
weather turns cold is good hot
meal of victuals. I should like to say
the same of the women folk, but it is
a fact that women do not pay as
much attention to their eating as they
should. By the time the meal is
planned, the material collected and
the cooking done, most of women who
do it all themselves have had enough
Of it, and find but little relish for the
viands, no matter how good they are.
Even the planning of a meal detracts
from its goodness" as one knows just
what is coming, whether it comes"
just in the shape she ordered it or
not, and usually by the time it reaches
the table it has lost its attraction for
her.
Marketing does not come by ma
if the girl is not thought the ms and
outs of the market places before mar
riage she has many a hard lesson to
learn by experience. Its most valuable
lessons cannot be learned from the
printed page or entirely from even the
best cook books or culinery lessons
given through the domestic maya
zies. There must be judgment and
common sense exercised in all its
branches. We are taught that
the best is always the cheapest"
and so it is; but We must be wise
enough to know what is the
best for each use for which it is
intended. For instance, in the pur-
chase of meats: The same piece will
not do equally as we'll for boiling and
stewing as for broiiing and baking.
Baking, roasting and broiling are
done by dry heat, an for these select
the most choice and tender pieces,
while for stewing, boiling and Chop
ped" dinners the tough or inferior
pieces are chosen. The latter are in
no way really inferior because of less
nourishment or being less palatable,
but because the methods of cooking
them are more difficult, and not being
in so great demand, the price is less
than for the first named pieces. In
the hands of skilled cook, the
cheap" pieces are more palatable
and nourishing than the high priced
meats in the hands OF poor or care
tess cook AS the cold days come on,
when fires are kept going many hours
each day, it will be we'll for the daugh-
tiers of the house to try their hand at
good cooking along inexpensive lines.
1t is possibility that every girl may
become wife and mother, and, wheth-
err she ever has home of her own or
not a knowledge of good and skillful
cookery along economical lines will
always be good investment of time
and attention. Say what one will, the
cookery of family is responsible, not
only for the ills, but for the happiness
of the whole household. Health of
body and mind is the secret Of every
success in the world, and while all
stomach troubles are not brought on
by poorly prepared foods, a great
many Of them could be prevented in
large measure by the serving of whole
some, we'll prepared viands.

MONEY IN GOATS.
New Mexico Woman's Success in a
New Industry.

OF the entire weight of mohair,
100000 pounds grown in the United
States annually, nearly one half is
contributed by New Mexico, and the
most successful goat raiser in New
Mexico is a woman, Mrs. NJ. Armer of
Hillsboro, to whom really belonge the
credit for bringing the industry 10
general notice among stock growers.
Ten years ago Mrs. Armer's 11us-
band, who was a prospector, lost his
life in the mines near Hillsboro, then
great silver producing camp. The
widow was left without money and
with several small children to support.
Among her few possessions were a few
common Mexican goats. To these she
added a few half breed Angoras and
one pure blood Angora RAM
With this stock she went into the
Angora goat business. At the Kansas

The Scrap Drawer.

Every woman knows the value Of
scrap-bag to hold bits of silks, rib
bon, lace and other "left-overs" from
dressmaking, which may be useful for
patching or for some other purposes.
But where bag is used the coveted
piece is sure to be down at the bot
tom, so that it is necessary to dump
out the entire contents Of the bag
every time something is wanted out
of it. Therefore it is better to devote a
space drawer in a bureau to scraps.
Here the various rolls of laces and
ribbons, each wrapped and pinned in
to tight bundles, may be spread out
so that each one may be easily recog-
nized. A bag for buttons, old fringes
and the like may be included among
the contents of the drawer, which
proves boon to all who have tried

A Texas Judge was robbed of a horse
not long ago, and the thief being
arrested was brought before him for
trial. The Judge eyed the prisoner with
deep satisfaction for a minute or so,
and then delivered himself of the fol-
lowing:
Owing to personal prejudice,
the court will not hear this case. It
will be tried by the bailiff, who will
find verdict in accordance with the
facts. In the mean time," he added,
impressively, "the court will go out
side and find rope and pick out a
good tree"

bought 1t for seven dollars from an
agent who warranted 1t by word Of
mouth for twenty years. 1t ran for
twenty minutes and the hired man
has had no more time since than a
jack rabbit. Poison had little to say
about the hired mans watch as he
had lately invested in a new tangled
breakfast food for COWS which he had
been led to believe would increase the
quantity of milk 100 per cent. and add
luster to the butter. The stuff didn't
add anything: it only subtracted from
Poison's pocket-book. The COWS
wouldn't eat it unless 1t was given to
them in some deceitful manner Some
of 1t was given to the hens and seven
of them died before night, and rooster
which tasted of the stuff hung his
head for a week. 1t was a perfect fail
rlre and came near wrecking a once
happy home. After Poison's mother
in-law had CLEANED the facts she made
things SO warm for him that he slept
in the barn for three nights, and the
hired man carried out his meals when
he fed the pigs. These two unsatis-
factory investments seems to have
cast tinge of blue over Poison and
the hired man and they were clawing
around looking for some remedy. The
hired mans watch was worth about
IS cents for toy and the COW food
was worthless.

idea to fool the mild-eyed deer in

came, big buck with horns like a

ectly under him. Then he pulled. He
pulled like mule hitched to an over
loaded dray, but there was no res

no bullet sped from the gun and struck
the deer between the eyebrows. He
followed the deer with the gun until
