? What is th.trieb good for?"
''Nothing but his feathers."
'"Indeed-his flesh and his eggs, not
good for food?
"Nd, .-ir."
.Why?"
?'Too ( ?ugh horribly unpalatable."
"Mon t thc uatives ride 'em like
horses in Africa?"
"No."
"Ii seems to ino thal I got that im
pression somewhere.
"AH a mistake."
t'They attack people someiiux ..
don't they?*'
"Not often."
"Well, Hitler Haggard wrote a !< ?ok
called'.less' about an African farm,
and describes an ostrich SH nearly
killing a woman. I ff!" '"ber thal.
".Maybe so, but < strich is are :i"t fe
rociously inclined.
''What do they oat?"
"In Africa they eat ehielly herbage,
but I don't think thia soft food is as
good for them as what they give them
in Florida.*'
.What do they feed t!i< m on
there?"
"Bits ?d' broken glass, egg shells'.,
sand, etc."
"Voit don't tell mc?"
"Yes-that is to help to form thc
shell of tho egg which they lay-and
these things aro better for thc ostrich
than herbage, I think."
"You don't mean to tell mc that os
triches arc moro properly fed in Amer
ica than in Africa?"
"Oh, yes T do-and better taken
care of, too."
''If they can live ou Florida sand
there ought to bc money in them." i :
"There is-and will bc much more."
"Wherein lies the value of thc os
trich?"
"Only in his feathers. They are
rare and costly and very beautiful.
You have seen thc ostrich boas, per
haps?"
"Oh, I reckon so."
"What time do they shear ostriches
in Florida?"
"They don't shear 'om-they clip
the feathers."
"All thc same, except closer cut."
"They clip the birds when the feath
ers are full grown-the feathers grow
rapidly."
'What feathers?"
"The wing feathers. They clip ls
from each bird aud then let 'em grow
agaiu."
"Good."
"Yes, better than in South Africa."
"Why?"
"Because they clip off all the feath
ers that can be clipped there, and this
is not taking proper care of thc birds.
This is another point in which Florida
is ahead of Africa in raising ostriches
and taking care of them."
That is certainly a revelation to me
and will be to hundred:! (d' people.
If ostriches have a better time and
llourish to a greater extent in Florida
than South Africa. In other words,
if thc State of Florida is a better place
to raise thc big birds successfully,
than Africa, the world cannot know it
too soon.
For, if the gent is right, nowhere on
earth could au ostrich board cheaper.
There aro more oyster shells,
broken bottles and sand in Florida
than there are ostriches in Africa.
There ought to be an ostrich farm in
every County of that State. Tho price
of feathers would not only shoot to
the bottom in a few years-thus bene
fiting thc peon o at large-but the
orange would have to take a backseat!
For you cannot free /.?ja feather!
