LIKfSTnf ANG0RA GOAT
Todd County Farmer Says
that Purchase Is Good
Investment

Guy Martin, who bought nine
Angora goats a little over a month
ago and placed them on his farm near
this village, informs us that he Is
highly pleased and satisfied with his
investment and with their work as
destroyers Of brush, says the Hewitt
Banner. After getting them he placed
them in two.acrs tract of b1 ush land
which they have practically cleaned
up, 50 much so in fact that he has to
chop down trees for them to browse
upon until he can fence in another
pasture for them. He says that the
Angora goat naturally prefers to
browse upon brush to eating grass and
that few days ago he gave them
some green corn but they would not
touch it so long as there was brush to
feast upon. Their fleece is worth
from 80 to IS cents a pound and as
their flesh is more pal stable than
mutton the goat is conside:ed superior
in all points to the sheep.
