Rocky Mountain Pat and Billy,
Inc, known to his masters as Billy,
and to the neighbors as Grahams
goat, went into training yesterday on
diet of spruce and fir branches In
anticipation Of the post-Christmas
rush.
To Pat and Billy Graham of Glen
Echo, Nd, Christmas means not
only vacation from school and pres
ents, but a cash income from the
all-consuming appetite Of their pet
goat, which Is especially fond Of old
Christmas trees and holly wreaths,
either genuine or paper. Cardboard
boxes and wrapping paper are part
Of his daily menu His appetite Is
all-consuming except for tin cans.
He eats only the wrappers.
The goat is rare species brought
from the Rocky Mountains by the
Department of Agriculture to the
experimental farm near Beltsville,
with mate. When his mate died
he became unmanageable, and was
given to a resident of the vicinity.
Soon all the shrubbery in the neigh
borhood to the approximate height
of a goat on it's hind legs was as bare
as a poplar in February. With the
approval of the entire neighborhood,
his owners agreed to part with him.
Seeing the goats picture in news
paper, Pat Graham persuaded his
parents to accept him.
Mrs. Eloise Graham. wife OF
George E. Graham of the United
States Bureau of Standards, called
for the goat in her car. On the
way home it started to nibble her
hat, hair and coat collar indiscrim-
inately and the more he nibbled the
harder she pressed the foot throt-
tie. As she passed through George
town an officer of the law over
took her. She was in the midst Of
explaining she did not want her
hair bobbed when the goat stuck
his head out the rear window and
gave a loud "B-a-a-a-a-a," about
three inches from the officers ear
Mrs. Graham escaped in the con-
fusion. =
The fondness of Billy (the goat)
for old Christmas trees and holly
wreaths was discovered by Pat, who
is II, and Billy tGrahamD, 8. the
day after Christmas last year. They
realized considerable extra cash by
touring the neighborhood at rea-
sonable rates: cents for a tree,
wreaths three for cents, and no
more bother.
Last summer, they hired the goat
