THE ANIMAL INDUSTRY.
DISCUSSING THE RELATIVE MERITS
OF COW AND STEER.

4 Writer Calculates the Value the Live
stockman Co.'S from Cow ana steer,
Both Being in Trime Condition
Their Comparative Food NaIuo,.
A writer thus figures out the profits Of
n cow and q steer, OF equal weight and
grade:
We will take a fine steer. fifteen to
eighteen months old, weighing 1000
pounds, and cow Of the same compare
tive grade as mixer, weighing also
1000 pounds, place them both in spring
in a pasture containing an abundance Of
the best grasses, the COW being fresh in
milk. We will suppose that the food Of
support, both being Of the same weight,
is equal and The conditions Of produc-
tons $50 far as they may be between COW
and stcer) may be supposed equal.
Let Us suppose that the steer during
the coming year makes the large gain of
600 pounds to his weight. The COW dur
ing The same time gives 5000 pounds Of
milk, both having the Same feed summer
and winter. Now If we suppose this 600
pounds increase in the steer to contain
10 more water than the dressed quarters
OF the fat OK, 1915 per cent, then ii
would contain 32j pounds Of dry sub
stance, and The 5000 pounds OF mill; Of
the cow win contain 1910 of dry sub
stance. OF @.I9 times ass much.
II we suppose the milk to Jom9Ia into
cheese we shali have $50 pounds OF cured
cheese, which contains about TO- pnr
cent. Of dry substance, or 500 pounds:

scended from the Arabian steed, taken
to the country by the ancient Moors.
Midy Morgan, writing in The American
Ag1iculturist of the modern horse Of

merit aud inbred beauty it would be
an experiment to cross Spanish horses
OF today with the horses of America,
England or Australia. They do not

Nasty Whey Watts.

The practice of carrying the nights
and mornings milk 10 the factory in one
can is q custom that should be avoided
from May 10 to oct. /, especially if the
Yesterdays sour whey is 10 be trans
ported back home in the same can. 1t
is wonderful what foolish things some
PATRONS will 90, and then expect that
the cheese maker is going to make the
best. I am about sure that the many
fatal cases of cheese acknowledgements
icon-arc traceable back to carrying rot
ten whey in the milk can; the trans
uniting Of the germs OF purefaction
from a never washed, ever germ breed
ing and sinking whey vat to the milk.
In addition to the usual sermon about
better COWS and cheaper food We do
need-some Of us--a fun sermon Of gem
nine John Calvin orthodoxy hurled at
us for our sins of mixing the result OF
dirty hands, clean milk, sour whey and
rusty milk cans promiscuously together,
all in one original package. Why don't
we stop it?-John Gould in Hoard's

The foil sowing Of wheat is growing
in favor throughout the West.
The potato disease was widespread in
Europe this season, which means a
short notato crop.
There was probably never a time, so
it is claimed, when so much money was
realized in horse breeding in the United
States as at present.
One causc given for the failure of the
peach crop in Delaware and Maryland
is that the elements Of soil required by
the peach have been exhausted.

The immense number of foreign cat
tie, sheep and horses imported INTO this
country is hardly realized Al are
brought for the purpose Of improving
our homo breeds One heavy importer
who returned from across the water in
October brought with him for the west
alone three different breeds Of stations,
hnchncys, English shire horses and
Cleveland bays. besides the horses the
same breeder brought over some 800
sheep. The families to which these
sheep belong show that the west is go

It has been discovered that a shying
habit in horses comes often from short

provide near sighted horses with spec

Bulletin II Of the Missouri agricul-
tural station describes black ler and
anthrax in cattle and the difference be-
tween them, which is illustrated by
plates OF black leg it is said. among
other things:
Black les is due to specific infectious
hacteriun, which exists particularly in
lowlands, and when in he body Of young
cattle grows principally in the tissue he
tween the SKIN and flesh, causing bloody
dark gaseous tumors. It's progress is very
rapid. The proprietor is surprised one
morning to find among his herd Of cattle
his best 4a'tcd calf or yeariinS CT two
ycar-o'd dead The body is already
SwelIei to enormous proportions, and
there seems no clew to the cause OF such
rapid destruction"
Other animals may indicate the pres
ence Of the disease by lameness, soon to
be followed by swelling and death, for
most cases prove fatal, and medicinal
treatment Is scarcely practicable. Pre-
Yentive measures are the only ones Of
importance therefore The French in
vestigatious and others lave demon
strated the possibility and practicability
Of incubation for the black leg from
cattle to cattle, then to sheep, and in the
same way it can be introduced into the

Speaking Of butter test that was
mads in Europe between Holstein and
dorsey, Hoard's Dairyman says:
In these days and in this country,
where the butter yield determines the
value of milk more and more, rs prog
ress goes on, it is not hard to see that
the test revealed that the Jersey would
DO the more valuable COW, for as milk
runs between the two breeds any one
knows that forty-six pounds Of Jersey
milk lies more butter in it than fifty
four pounds Of Holstein-Friesian milk,
and each was mado in Europe at the
same expenditure OF food

CAPONiZtNG.
Profitable Information for Those who
Propose TO TRY II.

To receive full benefit from the opera
ton a bird should have at least seven
months to grow after being caponized.
Operators differ as to the proper age Of
the bird when suitable for the operation,
but observation leads me to consider the
breed of first Importance. IL is useless
to caponize any bird with LcgLmn blood
rs the operation does not stunt the comb.
a lara3 comb condemns q capon ut once.
Last season the following cross bred
birds were caponized: Plymouth Rock
Leghorns, Buff Cochin Plymouth Rocks,
Brahina Plymouth Rocks, s.,3 light
Brahlnas, and also laced " tst iottes.
The largest and most rapid maturing
birds were the pure breeds, especially
the Wyandotres. The birds averaged
- pounds, and were in excellent con-
dition when Caponizcl tho first week in
September. They were kept without
food for twcuty-four hours previous TO
tie operation, which was performed
FROM both sides OF the bird. thus making
hemorrhaea less liable. Al the whole
corn they would eat was given them di-
roctly after they Were caponized. The
''wind puff which Usually occurs in
three days, was hardly pcrccptible. and
in every instance was relieved 10y gently
opening the lips Of the wound. The
birds suffered no Inconvenience from the
operation, and seemed to grow by the
hour.
