'l‘lll'cc thousand llllgorn goats herded
out on tho brush-covered foothills of
California am going to do some hard
work for Uncle Sam timing the com-
Iug two years beginning this spring.
The experiment lvlll be unique both as

through the busily cllllpa al growth ill
the National Forests, saving much ia«
bar by the United States Forest Sor-
vice engineers and making way for
fol'cstnlion by nlcrclllultablc trees.
Not the least important feature of the
experiment. whicllVfor the first two
years will be confined to the Lassen
Forest, Is the fact that the task will
be pclfonncd during the l'cglllal graz-
ing by the goals which will not even
realize they are doing a valuable work.
Plans for carrying on the work are
outlined ill a inoperative agreement
drawn up by the Forest Service and
the owner of ll band of angora goats
grazing on the Missed National Forest
of California. The scheme is to run
tire iincs parallel with tho contour of
the slopes by cutting trails about
eighty rods apart These trails are to
sclev as guides fertile. llllgoras. They
will gl'azc ill each direction from the
trails. killing, it is estimated. a strip
of brush about. 300 yards widc. Tile
wldc lanes cut out and grazed by the
goats will'scl've as i chi ilrc lines in
protecting the forest overcd lands ly-
llli: beyond, and around llle'CililDfll'l'lli
areas. and also make a place for repro-
duction of merchantablc trees.
For the past two ycars the govern-
ment illlr; been carrying on pcl'nla-
:lolll Illlpl'ovt-mcnts III the National
Forum. on an extensive scale. and the
construction of fire lanes and trails
has“ been one of‘tllc most important
l'ciltlll'cs of the work. The task of
clearing the ground and providing land
for good fol'cst trees is. however, pcl'
llups the most important. benefit ex-

State Not Likely to Send Troops to
Taft's Inauguration.
Willie no definite statements have
been made, it is learned that there is
little likelihood of Connecticut having
much if any. of a. representation in
an official or military Way at the inaug-
uration at Washington' next month.
Gov Lilley has even given tlp qual-
love that he had engaged some time
ago but he said recently that 'he
and his wife might go down by them-
selves.’
The expense of having the states
well represented would be about $25.-
000. and so far no resolution for such
an appropriation has been introduced
into the Legislature This amount
would be necessary to care for the

Besides, the 3’5 000 needed for the

of the Military Affairs Committee, in
the matter recently
both referred to the many calls for ..
money for armories and other mili—
tary purposes, and strongly intimated
that they thought the money could be
used for Litese things to fully as good
advantage as for the trip.
