Natural Re»ourc«8 Bulletin. Goat raising has become an impor- tant branch of agriculture In British Columbia, accordin); to the Natural Resources IntolUgence Service, Dept. of tho Interior at Ottawa. Goat milk} finds n ready market at from 15 to 25 cents per quart in Vancouver and Victoria and the yield runs as high as ono gallon daily per animal, al- thoutfh the usual quantity is from three to fix pints. Tho Nubian goat is Bald to yield as much as from 3 t<> 4 . quarts per day of superior milk. This ml'.k Ik highly recommended by doc- tors for feeding babies and invalids. Dutter and cheese niado from it are highly prized by those who have learned to u.se these products. The skins of Koats lire utilized for gloves and in the production of leathers of ! cream-colored. The Syrian goat has very long ears and very long hair, and its horns are erect and spiral. The commercial success of the goat herds in British Columbia not only points to slmiiac; possibilities in other Canadian provinces, in all of which j there is little doubt but that the goat would make a splendid revenue pro- ducer and family asset, but at the same time there Is available the splen- did climatlzed and registered stock of the B.C. herds and the experience in breeding and marketing which B.C. owners have gone through with such conspicuous success.
