the End Of ,hs Tarra Steer.


The end of that ungainly animal, the
Texas steer, is near at hand. Soon his
long horns and angular frame win no lon
ger be seen. The shorthoru is fast sup
planting him. Thousands of bulls of i'm
proved blood have been taken not only
into Texas, but into Colorado, Nebraska,
Kansas, Dakota, and other places where
the Texas cow was the only available stock
with which to start an improved herd.
After the young stock become old enough
to breed, the Texan cattle are marketed,
and we are now running the emptyings, y
SO to speak, of the Texans. Even the
Indians are improving their Cherokee
stock in the same manner. In two or
three years more the main bulk Of the
cattle will be shorthon grades, aud q great
and steady demand will be made upon the
eastern herds for bulls for breeding. Not
for fancy stock, but for equally good, but
less fashionable, pure shorthorns. The
present outlook is altogether in favor Of
stock raising as the most profitable branch
of farming, both in the east and the west;
and it is certain that there is no other
that is less exhaustive to the soil.
The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1876-02-26
Waste of Land.


If a farm of 100 acres divided by fences
into fields of 10 acres each, there are 5
miles Of fences. If each fence is now one
rod wide, no less than 10 acres are occu.
pied by them. This is equal to 81 per
cent of the farm, and the loss Of the use
of the land is exactly equal to a change Of
81 per cent of the farm. But nearly
every fence row in the country is made a
nursery of weeds, which stock the whole
farm, and make an immense amount Of
labor necessary to keep them from smoth-
ering the crops. Much damage always
results to the crop from these weeds, and
If these expenses are added to the first
one, the whole win easily sum up to 20
per cent. or tax of one-fifth Of the value
Of the farm. To remedy this we would
have fewer fences, or we would clean and
SOW down the fence rows to grass or clover,
and NOW them twice year. Ten acres
Of clover or timothy would, at least, supply
a farm With seed and few tons Of hay
every year. We would in short consider
the fence rows as valuable part of the
farm, and use them as such.
