Show THE RICH COUNTY REAPER, RANDOLPH, UTAH Browse Supplies Good Feed for Goats Essential to Have Succulent Grass and Weeds for Does in Summer. Ideal range for Angora goats should possess ' suitable forage at all times of the year, be well drained and free from continued heavy rains, and be adequately supplied with watering places and suitable bed grounds, according to W. R. Cbapline, In charge of range research, forest service, United States Department of Agriculture. Feed for Goat. As browse furnishes much of the forage for goats on the ranges, and in the winter Is the principal goat feed, an abundance of good browse should be available. Some important browse plants of high palatability are mountain mahogany, the bluebrush of the Pacific coast, Fendler ceanothus of the Rocky mountains, fendlera, bitter brush, and service berry. The oaks are less palatable but important browse plants in the West. It is also essential to have succulent grass and weeds for does at kidding time and during the summer. Good range management Includes conservative stocking, dividing the range so as to afford the best feed during each season, and obtaining as nearly even utilization of all parts of the range as possible. The grazing capacity of a range area Is the number of animals which may be carried on it year after year without Injury to the forage and with sufficient palatable feed. An average of approximately four acres of the type and from three to six acres of the truebrush type can be allotted to each goat for year-longrazing. Signs of Overgrazing. Reduction in the quantity of palatable forage, increase in nonpalatable plants, stubby appearance in the browse species, and thin goats are signs of overgrazing. Overgrazed areas should have the number of animals reduced so the palatable forage plants will not be injured; and, if possible, such areas should be protected from grazing until after the main forage plants have matured seed. Open, quiet herding, and the bedding of the goats on a new ground every night are recommended. Mr. Cbapline discusses the management of goat range in more detail in Miscellaneous Circular No. 50-The Angora Goat and Mohair Industry, Recently published by the United States Department of Agriculture. grass-brus- h g ...

The home gardener who does not select his own seed corn from his own patch Is missing some of the pleasure of gardening, say specialists at the New York State College of Agriculture at Cornell. But they add that one should know Just, what type and characteristics he wishes to perpetuate in his corn patch and then use care in selecting and gathering the seed ears.' , Those who wish earliness, for example, mark the stalks which produce the earliest ears of the correct type and also the earliest and best ears on these stalks. These ears ar$ allowed to mature on the stalks and then are picked with the husks on, hung up to dry In an airy place away from rats and birds, and left there until winter or early spring. After they are cured, the ears are sorted and only those of the most uniform type, shape, and size are used for seed. The best ears are well filled, solid, with good kernels and r well dried, the college says. Shelling Is usually done by hand, and the kernels from the butts or tips throws away.

Cows that have reached the limit of their period of profitable production should be fattened and sent to market so that their places may be used for heifers that are coming into production. Old cows that have started to lose their teeth, or that are no longer sure breeders, should be sold while they will still take on flesh. This pays better than to winter them with the idea of selling them in the spring. Usually such cows are in better flesh during the fall and early winter months than Vaccir V Said to End Poison Ivy Suffering eral kernels from each ear should be tested for germination.
