So it will be seen thAt the goat is
bound to have its place in the agri

already it has taken, an important po

the present time there is a widespread
desire for information upon this sub'

lands of northern Wisconsin and are
investigating the Virtue* of the goat
as a brush clearer while at tlie same
time breeders of "AttgOra gioiis in
other parts of the country are looking
for cheap feed on rough lands for the
maintenance of their lloeks for the
production of pelts and mohair. If
readily be understood that for
families settling in wild districts
where cows cannot well be kept, and
indeed having scant funds for this pur
chase of cows, the goat, capable of
picking up its living, costing but from
$G to $16, and producing from two to
four pints of cream-like milk per diem,
to say nothing of valuable mohair and
tender kid flesh, must be considered a
most suitable amd desirable animtkL 'So
great has the demand for goats al
