One of the peculiarities of the. goat tribe is its' appetite for what other animals prefer to lejave .alone. This idiosyncracy was mentioned at Wairoa recently, when the Minister of Agriculture was informed thet goats will climb over a 20-foot pile of blackberry, nipping off the old: tough leaves and eating the bark and stalks most effectively, mea.nwhile breaking down the vine by their trampling. Being cine, of the few animals known to have a liking for the hardy vine, i is a pity, therefore, that when the young Shoots of new growth come on the stunted berry the goat will not touch it. The period of the early growth is the only one in the year during which the animal prefers! gflass to blackberry.—Poverty Bay Herald.
