When business is depressed take it up
Seldom has the prospect for profitable in
vestment in cattle been better. Prices are
low; corn and other sorts of feed general
ly are reasonable in price. For beef buy
yearlings and crowd them for market, if
their present condition will warrant, at "A
10 - months of age If you don't under
stand getting them to market at profit by
30 or 33 months of age, don't try to handle
beef cattle where land is worth more than
$50 per acre. Only men on very cheap
farm land, or on the ranches can afford To
keep cattle until they are 10 months or four
years Of age The earlier in age steers are
slaughtered las good beef the smaller the
beef supply. The quality, too, is better
The / 100 pound yearling, if sold reduces
the quantity of beef possible to his growth
as ~ months animal, fully 40 per cent.
The yearling or two-y ear old beef is always
produced at less cost, too, the conditions
and methods of feeding being the same
Plenty Of grain is needed to put yearliug
into market at 100 or 1900 pounds weight
Where one has an abundance Of pasture
and hay, half the ration Of grain used to
produce yearling beef or even less than
half, may be used quite as proftably on the
steer until he is 80 or 30 months old On
cheap land hay and pasture alone, with ia
vorable climate or shelter, may often be the
exclusive feed for the steers after eight
months or until even four years old, when
they will 20 into profitable market
For dairy purposes, of course, the heifers
do not need the quantity of food required
to make beef of them. But calf should
be stunted in growth under no circum-
stances. Beef and dairy products are each
to be considered as representing business,
with different results in the details of their
outcome. The beef producer must be con
tent on the start, to invest, work and
wait for results from six months TO two or
three years. He must be patient and far
sighted. The dairyman often sees his re-
turns from the start. For doing either of
the two branches of the work, exclusively,
different types of men are as necessary as
distinct breeds of cattle yet there are ex-
ceptional men with abundant breadth of
thought and purpose to carry on both beef
production and dairying very successfully.
The conservative course is to make one or
the other incidental to the other. Each
branch of the industry has both its advan-
tages and disadvantages, which the one en-
gaging in them must consider. Thoughtful
care and attention to details will add large
ly to the percentage Of profits. But an oc-
casional loss should not discourage one.

In the general summing up of the opin-
ions Of scientific men, pro and con, it will
be observed that their conclusions, almost
without an exception, are to the effect that
oleomargarine made from clean, pure beef
fat is a heathful article of food-let us
here note the fact-''when properly pre-
pared. Scientific men and the jealous
advocates of imitation butter invariably
select out the best specimens Of oleomarga-
rine to prove their investigations. These
have nothing in common with butterine or
the lower grades of oleomargarine The
question may be asked, Why From the
simple fact that they are not desirable sub
stitutes for the dairy product are not easy
of digestion that they are frauds, and in
imical to good health There are without
doubt those who may prefer to eat imita-
ton butter on the plea of economy GER
tainly no one would desire to deprive them
of the privilege of buying product which
has received such high concentrations from
scientific men and men of national repute,
and which is claimed TO be so salable as a
food. The majority, we venture TO assert,
believe that they are buying genuine but,
ter, and are in total ignorance of the fact
that an imitation article is being sold to
them. The universal testimony taken from
various portions of our country proves most
conclusively that, notwithstanding our ma
tional law, more than twenty five per cent
of the oleomargarme sold is palmed off
as pure butter Oleomargarine manufact
urers and Jealous advocates of imitation
butter argue that the manufactured prod
uct is preferable TO rancid butter which
has lost its color with age and has gone
through the working over and wash
ing" process in order to remove the ran
cidity, and again colored and sold. Calling
attention to and the citation of one evil
does not in the least correct the other.
The working over" of rancid butter, if
an evil, is extremely small in comparison
with fraudulent butter, The mania for
lucre has in Massachusetts,, as in other
states, so vitiated the honor of many deal
ers in dairy products and robbed them IF
their reason as TO cause them to ignore the
national law and to defy the statutes of
their own states. What is the result !
There, as elsewhere, they must either
change their present law or allow a con
tinuance of deceit, while perfidy aud fraud
must go unpublished. ", j. Tres, Minnesota

Curing Meats.

South Fork" writes On page four of
your issue of November 80 1888, appears
a recipe for touring meats, and so far as
can Judge it appears to be an excellent one,
with an exception that ought to be careful
IT, and promptly noted, lest at this meat
caring season a serious mischief and injury
should result to some Of the many thousand
readers, who like myself, look with pleasure
for our weekly instruments of the gospel of
agriculture and its kindred topics, and are
generally well pleased with the able, accu-
rate, clean and terse way in which the sub
jrcts are placed before US | refer to the
item potash in the recipe What prepa-
ra' ion Of potash is meant Your intel
hssnt readers are aware that saltpetre is
tle nitrate of potash, and most of them
would infer that the other item potash"
would probably mean caustc potash, KO,
HO, or the oxyd of potash. A chemical
which is only handled by the chemist or
physician with the utmost fear aud caution,
since the merest contact with ones fingers
produces Il burn or destruction of human
tissue that all the other ingredients in this
good recipe would not soon cure. Fortu-
nately few intelligent druggists would dis
pense so dangerous thing as potash 2,
caustic pOtash-On other than the physi-
clans prescription, but at all events your
readers ought to know that if the item
potash IN the recipe means caustiC potash
then they need to have a care as to how
they handle it, or rather not to handle it at
all | may add that this form of potash is
found in cylindrical white pencils about the
size of ones small finger, which are kept
from the air, in which they readily and
rapidly dissolve and woe betide the un-
thinking person who takes one of these in
nocent looking white cylinders in his naked
fingers.
THE recipe referred 10 is the famous German
town Telegraph recipe, republished by request
The potash specified in IL is probably saltpetre or
may BE- the substance obtained from wood
ashes by teaching, To which the name potash is IN
common parlance applied At all events il Ger
tainly is not the potash to which our correspond
ent refers We have written the Telegram for in
formation ON this point - Editor Of Sfockmdnl
The recipe in question we believe was
lately published in The Phoenix The pot
ash which it was advised to use is probably
the common potash or pearlash of com
merce, not caustic potash Pearlash is a
crude carbonate Of potassa. A carbonate
of potash which used to be sold under the
name of saleratus and used in making
bread is intermediate in caustic properties
between the crude pearlash and the pure
bi-carbonate of potassa all have the same
caustic, alkaline properties, but varying in
degree, the pure bi-carbonate being milder
