the trade name of Persian lamb: those
prematurely born are known as Per-
sian baby lamb; whilst the open curled
skins are sold as Astrachan fur.
As the Arabs are very few in num-
Der, due to the ignorance of the ma
tlVes, who have shown no breeding
sense at all and permitted them to run
with other breeds, thus contaminatins
them and producing grades, it is not
easy to induce them to kill the Arab
lambs for fur purposes, but when one
sees short coats priced $4,000 to $4,000,
1t is reasonable to guess that the skins
come from lambs that are pretty well
bred up Arabs.
Varieties of Fur and Wool.
In the Arab as well as in the grades
it is necessary to kill the lambs the
first few days after birth, otherwise
the curls will lose their tightness and
luster, and, in fact, color, as the black
pigment soon becomes oxidiZed, turning
brown, and in eight or 10 months be-
come gray, which is the natural color
of all fur-producing grade Arabs.
The gray wool of the mature Arabs,
as well as such grades as the Shirazi,
Zlgai, Doozby, Malitch, Astracban and
others, is very coarse and as long as
20 to 80 inches, and is ideally adapted
for the weaving of rugs, and some of
the most beautiful rugs in the world
are made in Persia and Bokhara- Had
this wool the luster of our American
lonSWools, we believe they could great
~ improve on them, for some Of our
best grades, even when mature, have
fully as much luster, if not more, than
the Arab, but lack the tight black
curlS without which the skins have lit
tie value from a fur standpoint.
Again the curlS of our longWoOlS are
too small and not at all uniform, but
this is easily overcome with % percent

What about the wool of grade Kara

worth mentioning, but the hybrids
show an increase in hardness and

can Breeders Magazine of Chicago.

that so percent of Karakule blood de-

defied the worst billiards. known in
that country, and similar statements
are made by Joseph Simonson, of Mid
dlewater, Tex, who whilst suffering
terrible losses last winter in the Pan
handle among the Shropshires, had no
losses of his Karakules, and the bIiz-
zard did but slight damage among
the half and quarter bloOds.
This could hardly be otherwise, for
Bokhara is a country of great ex-
tremes, being very hot in the summer
and awfully cold in the winter. The

body that we can produce in America
fur vastly superior to that of Asia, for
which we are spending millions an

the very poor pasture that we were

One curious thing is that the pig

Whilst the best of results are at
