scrubs and FLOODED Cows.

When scrubs and bloodcd cows are
given the same ration, the enc does
not gain in weight or yield in milk
half rs much rs the other, and yet both
are cared for alike and are in perfect
health. If portion of the food more
than necessary to sustain healthy
individual state goes to make fat and
flesh and increase the milk yield in the
full blood, what becomes of the same
extras in the scrubs? The digestion
and assimilation are rs good in one rs
in the other, but the sum of the results
is widely divergent unless the extra
food of the scrub, which is known TO
be hardy, goes To develop and sustain
constitutional strength and nervous
energy. IT this be the fact, suggests
the Rural NeW YORKER, the extra food
consumed by the scrubs is not entirely
wasted, but converted into qualities
which may become in the highest de-
gree useful and valuable, when, after
wears of pampcring and close breed
inc. we have TO 90 back to the scrub
for new blood and new energy.
The shorthorn steer, compared with
the Louisiana OK bred on the Attack
apas prairie, in the matter of full flesh
and noble proportions, differs widely.
the difference between the two being
this. that one was bred for the butch
er's block and the other for hard labor
under hot and humid climate. In
both the food has been protitably en-
ploycd. or il would soon be shown
that it had been wasted were IN at
tempt made to have the one do the
duty of the other.
