SUCCESSFUL DEER FARM.
A Missouri Man Has Raised Deer
for Twenty Years.

TOR twenty Years.
AS profitable sldeline to general
farming g. ". Roseberry of Newton
county, Missouri. suggests deer rails
ing. In the last twenty years Mr.. Rose
berry has run a deer farm and has
made enough money out of il to make
him one OF the largest landowners in
this part of the state.
Roseberry began as boy of Is when
he happened 10 get hold of doe that
had been captured as a fawn He had
no intention Of going into the business
OF raising deer. but as the wild animal
became scarcer he found that de-
mand existed for parks ami circuses
that nobody was trying to meet. This
led him TO devote a part of his faith
er's farm to an enclosure for deer.
For the last five or six years he has
been unable to supply the demand for
deer. He has fenced off n fifteen acre
lot that Is part field and part wood
land. on the aeld he sows wheat or
rye for winter pasture and In the sum-
nier he raises COW peas for winter
roughage. From ten TO twenty head
of deer are kept on the fifteen acre
tract.
The fawns are taken from their
mothers ten days after birth and plac :
ed in "a cage made of poultry netting
Sned with cloth and bedded tyith
straw. If allowed TO remain with the
mother longer than ten days II is diff
ficult to catch n fawn. In this cage
they are fed on the bottle for two or
three weeks and then put in a larger
enclosure. They are never allowed to
range with the old deer
Mr.. Roseberry uses a 7-foot wire
fence to enclose his deer park. He
says shat woven wire fence with
cement posts Is much better. He pro-
poses using these when he builds his
new enclosure. q forty acre tract, in
which he expects to more than treble
his production of deer.
His experience has been confined
exclusively To the common or Virginia
white tail deer. but elk are regarded
by him as equally profitable. The adult
buck, If raised by hand. be-
comes vicious, especially during the
mating season, and 1t is unsafe TO at
tempt TO handle him unles his an
tiers are sawed off or a 3-food board
is fastened between their tips. Unless
wounded and brought to bay the ordi-
nary deer will not attack man. The
fawns are easily tanned and at feeding
time they will crowd about the chill
dren or attendants like any domestic
animal. All the stock Roseberry raises
for shipment are brought up by hand
on cows milk, which makes them as
gentle and easy To handle as cattle.
The prices he receives for deers have
been steadily rising. A pair Of adults
bring from s75 to $S5, while pair OF
fawns are worth from $50 to $50. He
has shipped deer as far east as New
York and AS far west as Colorado.

this in spite Of the great increase Of
