Angoras Growing In Favor.


The value of grade Angora goats,
says American Sheep Breeder, depends
chiefly on how we'll they are bred. Low
grade Angoras with only two or three
crosses Of Angora blood should be
worth in Oklahoma $3.50 or $2.75
head A better grade of Angoras. say
three quarter blood, probably would
cost $3.50 a head Mohair is worth
this year from 25 to 40 cents pound,
depending upon the length, fineness
and condition of the hair. There Is
no doubt, Mr. Blair, about the future
OF the Angora business. The Angora
is already a national institution in this
country and Is here to stay, and We are
pleased to say to you that Angoras are
growing steadily in favor each year
On new, wild, brushy land they are
simply Invaluable and a hundred OF
them are worth more to clear up new
farm than the best two woodsmel that
ever welded an axe, because they clean
it up thoroughly, leaving no live roots
or sprouts behind them.

PrOpaGatinS Apple Trees.

Apples are propagated either by root
grating or by budding on seeding
stocks. If the former is employed,
scions of the varieties chosen are united
TO 1-year-old roots by the whip, or
tongue grating method. Sometimes
short scions and long roots are used,
in which case the result is called a
whole root graft, and sometimes long
scions and short pieces Of roots are
used, when the result is known as
piece root graft Root grating Is done
at any time during winter or early
spring. If budding Is resorted to, the
Seeding stocks are lined out in spring
and budded close to the ground in sum-
mer by the T-budding, or shield-bud
method

How to Get AIgaIfa Started.

Early attempts with alfalfa are like
" to prove failure unless the peculiar
requirements of the young plants are
thoroughly understood and the many
pitfalls guarded against. 1t is best to
start with small patch-an acre or
less-and to make from four TO eight
subdivisions and give each a different
treatment as. regards fertilizer, lime,
method of seeding, etc. In this way
the experience which would otherwise
require a number of seasons to procure
can be obtained at the end of the first
wear

Chinese Goose Good Layer.

Often difficulty is experienced in get
ting the old farmyard geese to lay ear
ly in the season, but that may be sur
mounted if the Chinese variety be more
extensively kept. The Chinese goose
is a most prolific layer, and the flesh
makes excellent eating. SO long as the
huge fat geese are not in demand, the
smaller and more profitable Chinese
may be taken up with advantage. Per
hapS the best crossbred goose for gen.
eral early marketing purposes is hat
produced from mating Chinese gander
with Toulouse goose, but if larger
supply of eggs is required, the mating
should be reversed. In either case the
youngsters are extremely hardy, grow
ing and feathering more quickly than
any other breed or cross. They should
attain a weight of eight or nine pounds
by the end Of the summer with very lit
tie hand feeding.

If one peach is two inches in diam
ater and another is three inches, how
much larger is the latter than the
former? Just half as big again? Oh,
no, That would be a bad guess. 1t
is three and three-eighths times as
large. Don't you believe it? Let your
boy ask the school teacher, and If the
teacher doesn't know, ask anyone that

1t is better for a peach tree to bear
three bushels Of large peaches than
three bushels Of small peaches. Why?
Because the large peach IS mostly juice
-water-but the small peach is mostly
pit-dry matter. 1t is very hard on a
tree to mature big crop of pits, but
not so hard to produce big crop Of
fruit. Thin the peaches severely and
the tree will live longer, other things
being equal.
Many a young man Is of the opinion
that money produces thrift 1t is the
reverse; thrift produces money and

look his duty to himself and family as

strong possession of some men that they

SNAP SHOTS OF WALSH.
Taken, But Machines Are Broken
Case Postponed.

Chicago, March 1O.-The preliminary
hearing of John B. Walsh, former
president of the Chicago National
bank, who was arrested here several
days ago on the charge of violation
of the federal banking laws, was post
poned until March 10.
A lively fight between friends of
Walsh and number of newspaper
photographers took place when Walhs
was about to leave the federal build
ing after his case had been continued.
The photographers had placed their
machines at the Adams street entrance
to tn ebuilding, and when Mr.. Walsh
came out one of them snapped him. In
an instant the friends of Walsh made
rush for him and the machine went
init the air and the photographer to
the sidewalk.
He jumped UP and struck one of his
assailants in the mouth, knocking him
down and cutting his hand badly on
the front teeth of his victim. A gem
eral mixup- followed, all the photo
graphers taking sides with their fell
low workman. The arrival of the po-
lice stopped the fight. Only one pic
ture of Walsh was taken, and that the
ture of Walsh was taken, but the
chances are that the camera that took
1t Will never be used again.

MONUMENT TO RUMsEY.

Evening Times Special Service.
Shepherdstown, w. Va, March 10
After more than century of neglect
the memory of James Rumsey, in
ventor of the steamboat, is about to We
appropriately honored. Preliminary
action has been taken looking toward
the erection of monument in this
place to the memory Of Rumsey. The
West Virginia legislature has appro-
priated $1.750 toward the cost of the
monument and additional aid will be
asked of Maryland. of which state
Rumsey was q native.
1t was at Sherpherdstown December
8, 1887, that Rumsey gave his first
public exhibition of the steamboat, and
then, for the first time in the history
of the world, as his champions claim,
a boat propelled by steam moved
against the current. The test was wit
messed by General William Drake and
General Horatio Gates, both Of whom
were residents of this county. It is
on the cliffs overlooking that part of
the Potomac where the experiment
was so successfully performed that t
is now proposed to erect monument
to the memory of the inventor.
