Milk Goats
 May Be Kept At Profit
Particularly We'll Suited for Limited Space Where Cows Can Not Be Maintained-Good Goat Will Yield Ten Times Her Weight in MIX a Year.

In Europe the goat is often spoken of as "the poor mans cow" With us in America the animal has been con- idered more as an unfailing source of ridicule than as a milk producer of real value. The goat is naturally adapted for the use of those families who find it impossible to keep COW because of limited space or an insuf- fieient supply of feed for the larger animals. There are many suburban homesteads and not a few farms in this country where milk boats could be kept at a profit. One animal of good milking qualities will supply an average family with a fine quality milk for the greater part of the year.
 How Much Milk
 About the first question that per- spective goat buyers ask is "how much milk will a goat give?" A doe with an average production of quarts day for or 8 months is con- sidered a good animal. Three quarts IS thought to indicate an excellent Ianmial. Reliable authorities say that | good goat will yield ten times her body weight of milk annually. The lactation period covers from [ to 10 months. The milk has a special value as food for infants and invalids. If a family keeps a milk goat, it can be well assured of a supply of clean, wholesome food, since it is then pos sible to control the sanitation of the dairy by personal attention.
 The esteem in which the milk is held by those who have used it is ir- dicated by the fact that it often re- tails at 50 cents quart. Goats milk can be utilized in all ways that cow's milk can, altho for some it is not so well suited For general use. for drinking, cooking, and in tea and coffee the milk has proved very satis- factory. It is not so good, however. as a butter-making material. Good butter can be made from goats milk, but the operation presents some diff 'hcuity due to the fact that the cream rises. very slowly. Cheese made from goat's milk is very popular.
 Tor the production of milk by dairy cows are also suitable for does The GFYantage for the suburban family is that a smaller quantity of feed Is re-
 Most of the feeds that are valuable nuired by milk goat than by a COW. it ls ordinarily considered that from siN Co eioht does can be kent on the feed required for one COW. When does gre in milk they should be allowed all the Foughage that they can consume.

CEr READY FOR HOG LAW.

There now seems no reason to doubt that, following the decision of the voters at the last general election, Polk county will have law to pro- hibit the running at large of hogs. It is probable the law will become eff fective soon after it's adoption by the legislature.
 As in all matters that concern the people. particularly when what IS of real value to one may be considered harmful to the interests of another. this hog question will find many who feel 1t should not have been. But the fact remains that the majority has spoken at the ballot box, and, there fore the merits or demerits are not at this time a matter for discussion.
 However, the best course to be pursued in caring for hogs by those who own them. take on redoubled im- portance, already many, particularly the breeder of fine stock, are taking CAho VA th0h StvSh IT pSh anu pao ture. Most of these, beyond doubt, think their way is the best way, and as some have better methods than others. and all at this time are worth considering by those who will have to meet the changing situation. The Star would welcome discussion of the subject in it's columns.
 And. keep in mind the fact that Polk county can raise fine hogs prof itably, has done it, and is doing it
 An open. free discussion of the topic will be valuable

 Cup of Wine Started It.

One has to go back to the year SIS to discover the origin of the custom of banquets to drink to the health" of the guests Edward, king of England was stabbed in the back as he lifted a cup of wine, by orders of his step mother, Elfradi. He managed to put spurs to his horse, but soon fell from weakness, and was dragged to death. Thereafter it became the custom when friends met at table, to pass a great cup that required both hands to raise This exposed the body to an enemy's dagger, and was indicative of the drinkers faith in his fellow banouet- ers.
