ENGLISH FARMERS.
Winter Wheat in Good Condition
and the Prospect Improving.


and the Prospect Improving.
An English agricultural correspon-
dent writes under recent date: Wheat
sowing has made good progress during
the month now ending, the weather
having been dry during nearly the
whole of the month. In some places
the land was too dry for wheat, but rain
has now fallen !. in sufficient quantity TO
undo this difficulty. The land has
crops are up thick and strong. 1t is eX-
pected that an increased acreage will
be sown, though that must depend
upon future weather, as there is
good deal more to SOW in the late har-
vesting districts, where the crops of last
harvest are only just gathered in.
Threshing has been actively carried on
during the dry weather, and the mar
kets are oversnpplied with wheat.
Hence recent dizziness, partially recOv-
cred from, but not entirely. Many
farmers must sell to obtain ready money;
but there is general impression that
those who can hold their wheat will be
rewarded for doing so, as prices can
scarcely fail to go up considerably in
the new year. In spite of more san
guine estimates, the prevailing opinion
among the best judges is that the total
wheat crop of the United Kingdom will
amount to only little over 100000
quarters 64.O0O,OOO bushels), and that
we shall need to import about $4,000, 900
quarters during the cereal year which
ends here with August. Barley and
oats are good crops, and potatoes and
roots are over rather than under aver
age. Therefore as prices for almost all
that farmers have to sell are fair or
good, farmers may obtain some profit
this season, and there is general spirit
of hopefulness that has long been
absent.

New Through Line to ST. Joseph,
Mo.

On Monday. Dec. 10, the Chicago, st.
Paul & Kansas City railway will begin
running their through sleepers from st.
Paul and Minneapolis to st. Joseph,
the train leaving st. Paul at 1888 p. NJ,
arriving in st. Joseph at :335 p. IN. the
next day, making through connection
for all California, West and Southwest
ern points. This train will be made up
of an entire new service, consisting Of
Mann boudoir ears, which have been
built expressly for this run. These cars
are furnished with buffet and are made
up entirely of single rooms, which will
make the service complete. This, we
feel assured, will be appreciated by
grateful public. New dining cars will
be placed upon this run. The Buffet
service attached to the Mann cars will
supply passengers meals in the mean
time. Passengers taking this train will
be supplied with every comfort neces-
sary to make the journey agreeable.
and as this is decidedly the short line,
we have every reason to feel assured
that it will at once become a most pop
ular train.

IMPROVE The BREED.
Cheap Bulls Are Not Profitable

Cheap Bulls Are Not Profitable
to the Grower of Cattle. !
In discussion of the,subject Of how
to avoid the increase of poor individuals
in the herds, the Iowa Homestead holds
the following practical view of the mat
ter, with strong reason: Breeding with
out Judgment, breeding too young, bad
core and bad feeding, will just as GER
tainly fill the herd book with weeds and
scrubs as the opposite will fill it with
choice animals. How to get rid
of them is the problem. If
breeders would only quit max
ing them the problem would be
all easy one. The education of Short
horn breeders themselves is the best So
luton of the problem. That education
must be had on the farm and along the
lines of money making. The Shorthorn
breeders are not in the business "for
their health or ''for glory or for the
..fun of lt.'' They want to make money.
They make it by selling their stock for
breeding purposes. The customer Of
farmer, and the the breeders for the
farmers are the other fourth. The
farmer thinks that from SIS to 500 is all
- HE CAN AFFORD TO PAY
for bull. He would like to buy one
for $50, and he will very often buy
poor one for $50 rather than pay 800 for
a good one. The breeder concludes he
will take $50 rather than lose sale, and
really imagineS he is making more
money than if he steered it. He there
fore keeps ShOrthorn stock that raises
$50 bulls, because he thinks it pays him.
Here is the point where both the breeder
and the farmer need educating. The
farmer cannot afford to buy this bull at
any price, nor can the breeder afford to
raise him for $50. Both lose money and
both degrade and dishOnOr the Short
horns. Here is the key to the whole
situation. The farmer buys the $50 bull
and is disappointed and goes off to
some other breed. The breeder keeps
OH in the delusion that he is making
money when in fact he is only walking
around to
SAVE FUNERAL EXPENSES
financially. The educated breeder will
fix price below which he will not sella
Shorthorn, and will steer everything
which will not bring that. This involves
sending to the grades all the females
which will not produce calves of that
quality. Whenever he makes up his

to make money, First, he will have
some nice steers that will sell his bulls.
When we are dealing with customer
on the Homestead farms we invariably
show him the steers first. We point out
the thoroughbreds that were not con-
sidered good enough to sell, and show
from the grades just what can be done
by grading up. When we get around to
the bulls the sale is half made.
SecOnd-The farmer who buys will

the breed and the breeder.

bring the top of the market when fat, is
