STOCK NOTES
No doubt Bro Good and other Cher
The Homestead has the following to
say iji praise of the Angora goat The
Angora goat suits the situation of a
great many American farmers Their
friends claim fo them that they are
kept at less expense than sheep that
they are less liable to disease and that
the price of the fleece beats wool They
are adapted to a dry climate and whije
they graze and make a good use of the
short grass they are especially and
above all things browsers being fond
of brush and twigs and they thrive
well in a broken hilly country contain
ing much scrubby tree growth The
pelts have a very considerable value
and the flesh is said to be excellent
Considerable contesting of landsin
the neighborhood of Irving on the
Platte is going on at present It seems
that a lawyer in Sidney is at the bot
tom of the affair and is taking this
manner to levy blackmail omthe Platte
river ranchmen In the cases tried so
far the ranchmen have been successful
It is to be hoped this nefarious business
will be stopped and men who are com
plying with the law in regard to home
steads and who have obtained title to
lands by legitimate means will be pro-
tected m their rights

ry county people would like to have
the whole west end of the state organ
ized into one big association with head
quarters at Valentine We know noth
ing about the Brown county organiza
tion but we know that the Keya Paha
River fStock Grower- Association has
about a hundred members and that the
secretary is kept good and busy filling
out new applications Satisfactory and
adequate arrangements for inspection
at market points have been made with
one of the larger associations and the
Keya River association didnt
have to submit to being gobbled up in
order to make such arrangements
either The variou3 associations
throughout the state should co operate
heartily with each xther but thist talk
of consolidation is all nonsense
Stockmen in this section see no object
in having to go to Valentine or Alli
ance in order to attend a meeting when
they can have a meeting of tneir own
at Brocksburg or Stuart The Western
Nebraska Stock Association is a good
thing and every stockman within its
proper jurisdiction should hasten to be
come a member of it but it must not
get too hoggish or ambitious It should
reflect on the fate of the frog which
tried to be as big as the ox It is not
the only pebble on the beach There
are others and some of them are not
too small to be of any great benefit to
their members Naper News
Abortion among cows may be due to
a variety of causes Abortion arising
from an accident or gany other cause
often becomes contagious Infectious
abortion has long been known m this
country
Among the causes of abortion are the
following viz Impure water un
sound food frosted food offensive
smells disease fright over exertion ac
cident and the use of bulls that have
come into contact with the disease
The calf -bed and passages of aborted
c6ws should be disinfected and for
this purpose and for a continuance of
of this operation applied externally as
well as internally to the jjetiituls I rec

is less irritating less poisonous and

A report from Chamberlain S D

ated under the laws of South Dakota
by Canadian capitalists with a capital
of 200000 arrived in Chamberlain and
left for the range countiy west of the

The gentlemen stated that they intend

Horses are going to be scarce and
high priced for a number of years to
come in this country The reason we
make this assertion is the fact that the
war in South Africa is using up horses
very fast The Boer al vays tries to
kill or cripple as many of the enemys j
horses as he possibly can for he figures
and rightly too from p military stand
point that a dead horse is just about as
great a loss as a dead soldier The cli
mate too kills a great many unaccli
mated animals The British army
looks to America for its remounts and
horse dealers in New Yoit Chicago
and New Orleans have orders for about
50000 head to be sent to South Africa
as soon as jpossible If this keeps on
very long horses will surely become
scarce and consequently higher priced
