Show GOAT SHEARING NOW UNDER .WAY The spring shearing of goats commenced last week in several sev-eral parte of the county, and is now well under way. Heretofore the animals were relieved of their hair at two or three centralized corrals in the county, but this year shearing is in' progress at many points. Jed Fawcett, Antone Prince and Leavitt and Bowler sheared last week at Jackson, Mack Bowman is near Gunlock with his flock while others are shearing at Virgin Vir-gin and on the Harrisburg bench. The goats went through the winter in good condition and the hair, according to growers, is in first class shape. The storm and cold snap following the shearing last week caused some suffering, but no loss among the herds was reported. |
