spent in "timbering,' a fall of about
five tons of roof came down suddenly,
catching the father and Christopher, jr

In dealing with lice on livestock. ,
He had some fine Polald-Chinn

SHY of putting them in shed and

FACTS ABOUT ANGoRA GOATS.

Editor Southern Agriculturist.
In complying with your request,
and also the request of some of your
readers, for an article on Angoras, !
viii try to give brief history Of my
experience with them.
In the first place, after reading
about them in farm papers, | sent
TO Representative q Congress. and
had him send me the Government
book ON Angora Goats. 1t costs
nothing. and every man contemplat-
ing raising Angoras should read H.,
After reading It, decided TO try f.,
and | find the raising of them 10
be profitable.
Now, to the readers questions. He
asks how many would do well ca
three acres of broom sage and sweet
gum and black gum sprouts. That
depends entirely on the amount of
grass aid sprouts that grow on the
three acres. II II is perfect will
derness try twelve held. and | think
YOU will find them sufficient TO keep
down your three acres. \ farmer
should not consider that for goats
to keep his place free from sprouts
and filth is the only benefit derived
from them. OF course they will do
that. but You can starve a goat 70
death as well as any other animnl.
Goats respond to good treatment the
same as any other stock.
Question 3 How many kids do
the does have at time, and how
many times year?
Angoras Almost inyariably have but
one at time, and only one time a
year. In case they lose their kid in
the spring, then sometimes they will
have one In the fall | have had
but one set of twins dropped In four
years out of sixty odd hea4 OF kids.
Question 3. About hbw heavy are
they when grown?
The government book gives the
average weight Of Angoras at sixty
five pounds, but some are a good
deal heavier than that The does
weigh about sixty-fiye to seventy
pounds. and the bucks weigh about
ninety to one hundred pounds.
Question 4. How do you sell them
when large enough to shin? About
how old are they when full grown?
Kids are old enough to ship at four
to five months old. They sell at
frcm so to $25 per pair, and some
even higher. The prize buck Mt Kan
sas City in 1900 brought Sl,050, and
was bought by woman. In 1901, the
prize buck brought $1,000 Angoras
do not get full grown till they are
two years old.
Question 5. Sale of mohair.
As there are so Few Angoras III
Tennessee we have no mohair deal
ers, SO have to ship It to other States

A sure sign Of improved farming
is the growing of many kinds OF
grasses. This is one of the best
ways of making two blades of grass
grow where only one grew before.
BY this way the land becomes more
fully occupied than it would be
otherwise. each kind finding just ile
place needed. When orchard grass,
for instance, is sown alone il is very
apt TO grow In punches, andthe vacant
places between these punches, unless
seeded with clover or other grlssts'
will be occupied by weeds.

Walter Bradbury Held for Assault on
Raymond Washburn.

The trial of Walter Bradbury of this
town was held Monday forenoon at the
Office Of q. NJ. Chapman. Esq. Brad
bury was arrested on Il charge of as
sault and battery on Raymond Wash
hurn at ShaWmut. 1t was reported
that Bradbury assaulted Washburn.
while one of his friends held him.
Washburn'S face was rDrY much dis
figured and hi. clothes Mere torn off
from him. Washburn exhibited some
of his clothes at the trial. They were in
bad condition. Bradbury said he
did not know the man whom he as
Saulted and gave no reason for his
conduct. No other motive than rob-
berry can be assigned for the assault.
The man who was with Bradbury
could not be found and his name could
not be learned. 1t will be remembered
that last Fourth of July Young Brad
bury had trouble with another young
man and came near getting into seri-
Gus trouble. His bonds were placed
at $500 and he was given until O'Clock
Monday to secure bonds. AS he was
unable to get bail he was taken to
SkoWhegan Jail, to await the action of
the grand jury.
