The Angora goat is not afraid oil
dogs and can protect itself well against
their attacks. They are fond of but
ting each other in play, but ! never
saw one attempt to fight other stock.
1t requires some kind of fence to
keep the goat In which he cannot
stand on the top of or climb up. The
best fence for Angora goats Is the
woven wire fence This fence need
not be over 40 or AZ inches high The
fence must be close to the ground, sc
they cannot crawl under. When Their
hair is long enough to protect then
goats will often crawl through &
barbed wire fence, If the wires are moi
very close or the posts close together
with the wires well stretched Goats
will not jump over any fence, they
want to climb up, and then they vii
jump down, or they will Jump up OF
top of the fence and then down; but
they never jump over a fence like {
mule or steer.

FRUIT TREE
PLANTING POINTS
Should be Placed I'm Ground While
Dormant In Well Drained Soil
With Hole Large Enough
to Spread Roots.

(By PROF JOHN w LLOYD. Illinois
Farmers Institute.l
/. When to plant fruit trees: While
they are dormant; while the ground is
In workable condition; late in the
fall after growth has stopped, or
early in the spring before 1t has be-
gun.
2. Where? In well-drained SOIL
3. How? Dig an ample hole; spread
the roots out In their natural position
and pack fine earth around them. 1t is
dne soil in digging.
There Is always a balance between
the roots and branches of tree, SO If
many roots have been cut off in dig
ging the tree from the nursery, a cor
responding amount of the top must
come of. If trees are planted in the
TALL some precaution should be made
against their being heaved out of the
ground by alternate freezing md thaw-
ing. This can be done by spreading
a thick layer of straw or manure
around the tree.
There are four essential points In
the care of fruit trees. They are: 1.
Tillage. 2. Fertilization g. Pruning
1. Protection from enemies.
Tillage is just as necessary in tree
raising as in corn raising, and for the
same reasons: To avoid the competi-
ton Of other plants. to conserve mois-
ture and to render plant food avail
able.
Intelligent pruning is also very nee.
essary to raising fruit Each bid on
a tree is capable of giving rise to a
branch, and If every branch is allowed
to grow the tree will become too
dense. We must thin out the branches
In the tree tops or we will have little
fruit. 1t takes moisture to develop an
apple and sunlight to color It: so the
foliage must not be too thick. Pruning
ls also employed to make the tree as
sumo the desired shape. 1t should
also distribute the large branches equi.
distantly, as nearly as possible. 1t is
always best to grow a good strong
branch on the southwest side Of the
tree, where the hot suns and strong
winds come from.
In pruning, we should cut the limb
In such way that it will heal quickly
To do this the limb should always be
cut as close to the body as possible
and parallel with it. A saw should be
used, and the wound must be coated
over with white paint or something
