GOATS TO BE USED
FOR FIRE PREVENTION
(By Associated Press)
EL PASO, Tex., Jan. 7.—Goats are a
means of fire prevention in the na
tional forests W. R. Chapline, of the
I United States forestry service told
, the executive committee of the Na
tional Mohair Growers’ association
which was in session here recently,
j Mr. Chapline gave the committee
1 men an outline of the facts as he had
I developed them in extensive studies
| of the use of goats in the forest re
serves. His theory as advanced to
the goat growers was that the mo
hair growing animals would keep the
undergrowth grazed so closely the
danger of fires spreading from tree
to tree through the medium of thi:
undergrowth would be elminated. He
also urged mohair goat breeding or
i
the forest reserves as a means of in
creasing the nation’s food supply ir
