Breeding for Beef.


Mr.. P. Wakem, an experienced feeder
of Wisconsin, deli vered an address be-
fore the Farmers institute OF that state
recently on the subject of breeding for
beef. He claimed that the first princi-
pie of success Ii breeding and continued
by saying that 1t was as important in
beef animals as in race horses, and with
out the proper breeding to establish the
beef producing characteristics, feeding,
be it ever so well done, would not pro-
duce the most profitable results. Only
thoroughbred beef sires should be used I,
and the better the beef characteristics of
the COW the closer would the breeder be
to the possibilities of the best success.
In raising calves for beef, let them suck
the cow invariably, as it has better
tendency TO increas SO the faculty of lay
ing on beef. At six or seven months old
the calf should be weaned and SO fed as
to keep up constant growth, never al
lowing it to lose its calf fat, but to keep
up constant Improvement, and fitting
the animal for the top Of the market
when 1t was two years old. He was con-
fident that two years was the age at
which steers should be ready for market
in order to get the best profit. The best
grain for q calf until weaned, he
thought, was two thirds corn meal and
one-third oats and bran. Until the
calves are two or three weeks old they
should be kept with the mother, then
separate them and let them suck twice q
day.

A CLEAR BACK DOWN.

Nels Morris Cancels HIS Contracts for the
Purchase of Montana Cattle.
We have bad news this week with re-
gard to the stock sales made in this part
of Montana to Mr.. Morris OF Chicago.
Mr.. Morris through his agent here
bought q large number of beef cattle
from our stockmen to be delivered on the
line of railway. The prices offered were
good-so good indeed as to rejoice the
heart of every stockman in Montana,
Forty dollars for steers, $50 and
S33 for cows, that was first rate.
Shipping was commenced at once, for
with cattle as with men there is a tide
which when taken at the food leads on
to fortune. Suddenly there Is q change,
we have news from Chicago of Il democrat
lied market, and the top of the report
that Mr.. Meyer, Mr.. Morris agent, has
entered into negotiations with the men he
bought the cattle from to cancel the
contracts. We did not at first credit
the report, but now we are compelled
to do so in face of the facts
brought under our notice. Fri
Coggshsll's contract has been can
celled by the payment to him of
$500. Mr.. Trussler receives the large
sum OF cz1 ,oVu III oruer uob 10 complete
the purchase made from him. Pierre
Wibaux had already sent partof the cat
tie purchased from him to Chicago, but
negotiations are at present going in order
to cancel the remainder of the bargain.
This is an unexpected blow to our cattle
men and they hardly know how to take
1t. Does it mean that the market is SO
utterly demoralIzed that cattle will be
almost unstable at any price? We
think not. The plain fact is that the
Chicago market il in the hands of a few
'fbig men, who manipulate at will,
and the cattlemen are at their mercy. A
ruse like this unsettles the market, IN
many places the cattle must be got rid
of, they are got rid of cheaply and the
big men reap the benefit. 1t is too bad.

FEEDING PIGS.
Potatoes Said to be as Good for Faitening
as Corn

Potatoes Said to be as Good for Fattening
as Corn
Mr.. Waldo F. Brown writes to the
New York Tribune ON the subject of
feeding pigs, and says that he has found
q substitute for milk, and which, he
thinks Will answer as well as corn for
fattening purposes. He says:
s'The critical period with pig is the
first two months after weaving; ifstunted
then there will be loss on all food con-
sumed afterward; il started into thrifty
growth this can be pushed TO early ma
turity. 1 am experimenting with ten
pigs three months old and find / can
make them thrive rapidly, without milk,
on food they seem to relish as we'll as
milk, and 1 never fed pigs that had
better appetites. Their daily ration is a
peck of potatoes, boiled, mashed and
mixed with half a bushel of bran (about
thirteen pounds, which, bought for
S1l 80 ton, costs but seven and four
tenths cents. In addition they get one
ear of corn each twice day. bring
the potatoes from the barn when come
to breakfast from milking; we cook
them on the kitchen stove. mash fine as
possible, thoroughly mix with bran, a
handful of salt is added, and enough
water to make rather stiff swill. By
noon it has ferment-d and raised up like
yeast, and this keeps in good condition
until the next morning, making three
feeds, when we start new again. The
peck of potatoes and half bushel of bran
viii make over twelve gallons of thick
swill.
Our corn crop Is nearly failure, and
have ordered a lot of old-process oil
meal, and as corn is selling at Fifty cents
bnshel, and is likely to go higher, I
shall try if l cannot fatten these pigs
without corn. / am inclined to think
that used with other food potatoes
possess greater feeding value than has
generally been attributed to them, and
hope to conduct experiments to ascer-
tain their value. 1 can make pan with
sheet-iron bottom for SIS or less that will
cook barrel or more of potates at a
time, and with little fuel. The furnace
make of stone laid up with clay, and I
do not face the outside at all, but bank
up with clay to the top. With q pan
with thin bottom, and large firespace
under it, a barrel of potatoes can be
cooked very quickly, and IL the fire is
laid ready to start soon as you get up,
the potatoes will be ready to mash just
after breakfast, before going to the
field. know several large growers " no
do not pick up the potatoes too small to
sell. but leave them on the ground.
am sure they will pay we'll for saving
and cooking.

No Natter How Low Cattle May Go.
Beef Over the Block Never
Varies in Price.
Nris Morris Cancels HIS contract for the Pur-
Beef-General stock Item, and Notes.

A GAZETTE reporter interviewed o
local butcher yesterday on the Fort
Worth market for beef cattle. and was
Informed that the market had about
played out or that prices were SO low
that it did not amount to anything.
tCows,'' said the butcher, "will
bring 81. 80 per 100 pounds If they are
good fat, but to do this they will have to
be choice animals. Plenty of cows are
sold at ST. per 100 pounds, and no one
thinks of asking over $3.50. AS to
steers, l don't know what to say, none
are sold here, the butchers not killing
them. suppose though they might be
quoted t So. Sheep are scarce and there
are very few but ones to be had. Hogs
are looking up and sell at from 8 cents
to 80 cents per pound.'
The above statements, when taken in
connection with the prices asked by
butchers for meat over the block, are
very interesting. II evidently makes no
difference TO the butcher how low the
price of beef cattle may go, he will ask
the same price for his meats at all sea-
sons of the year. With the price of beef
cattle down to 81 so per 100 pounds, he
asks the SINE price he did when the
same cattle were selling selling at 50
and So 20 per 100 pounds; aud the price
when the cattle sold al the latter figures
was just the same as beef over the block
sold for when the same cattle sold at
81 80 and So. 90 per 500 pounds. With
these facts as bases, it is safe to as
sumo that IL beef cattle should drop to
fifty cents per 100 pounds, the butcher
would ask the same price for meat that
he does to-day. The middle man rakes
IN the profits. the producer or consumer

NO BETTER THAN OLD HowDY.
One Farmer Snapped for Ano,her-Ths Part
the Alliance is Playing in Politics.
NAcoapocHEs TEx any 25 1890

NAcoeDocHEs. Tex, Aug. IS, 1890.
Editor Gazette
The nomination of John B. Long to
succeed Old Howdy falls like wet
blanket on this town. 1t Ia whispered in
the corner, of course not publicly, that
the price of gas will go up rapidly ii the
farmers get entire control of the govern
ment, as they are striving to do. 1t will
neither be blown out nor turned off, the
intricacies OF the jets being SO great the
average congressman will not dare to APP
proach it for mortal terror, and of course
it will all burn out, and price will rise
accordingly. Mr.. Long has the credit of
being good citizen and above the aver
age farmer, but no better than Old
Howdy, and the people have played
sheol by nominating him. For ways
that are dark aud tricks that are vain
the Farmers Alliance takes the cake.
All political measures are first settled in
the dark lodge room, and they then cspta
ure the conventions under the name of
Democracy. Look at their action ON
the sub-treasury scheme last week at
Dallas right on the heels of the San An
tonic convention, which sat right
square down on il and
mashed the poor thing. There
is no part OF the t'party policy" that
they will support, except it be to the
"direct" interest of the farmer and no
one else. 1t is understood that no inter-
est except the farmers interest is to be
considered. Two years hence we will
have to solve the Alliance problem.
Four illion farmers votes are expected
TO control 5000 900 other votes. 1t re-
mains to be seen who will win. You will
see that two years from now that all sec
tions who are opposed to the sub-treas-
ury, and all wild foolish plans of the Al
lance will have to get together. Repub-
licans, Democrats, Greenbackers, Pro-
hibs and all others Will have to destroy
party lines and vote together, or this
and many other helIish measures will be
heaped upon US, for they are trying and
succeeding to capture the Republican
party in the North and the Democratic
party in the South, and in their respect
I've locations are capturing pet measures
under popular political names, and the
party names are having to bear the
odium of it. 1t was the Farmers AL
lance that put the commission plank in
the platform at San Antonio, and dema-
gogues danced to the music. You will
find, however, that anti-commission
men will vote their sentiments just the
same, as it had no bust ess in being faith
cred by the Democratic party, but put
on the Alliance where it belongs. l note
that most men who are bowling about
railroads are men who have no freight to
haul, and who rarely ever travel. Most
men who have to do business with rail-
roads are appreeiative of their benefits,
and will vote accordingly.

brought about by an over supply on the
market. III one week there were re-
ceived a. Chicago Sc 400 head of cattle.
and it is possible that many who have
read OF that fact do not fully comprehend
its Significance. The like OF tins was
never known before. To undertake to
sell II 900 head OF cattle every day in
the week is big task, and 1t 1t is not to
be expected that under such pressurs
even Chicago with its selling facilities
could keep prices from galloping down.
When this is considered, prices. though
they have been low, have been pretty well
maintained.

Notes and Personals.

"I have always maintained that
could produce 1000 pounds of pork more
cheaply in two developed hogs than in
one developed hog; therefore my advice
is to select sized ,short-legged,
fine or medium bone, broad, straight
back, medium length, good glrth, and
smooth head. With this com bination
you are most likely to get good feeder
-one that will carry his development
with him and fatten at any age. III Cor-
respondent Western Swineherd.
Farmers and stockmen should not
allow themselves to become excited over
the sudden depression In the cattle mar
ket. 1t Is this constant fear of still
lower prices that drives them to market
ing their stock only half ripe, when in
the majority of cases il they would hold
them as conservative men do, the low
tide Of prices would soon be over and
they would reap much handsomer pro-
f1ts in the end.
Considerably more than one-fourth of
the cattle received at Chicago during
last month came from Texas, this state
furnishing 8S 1880 head exclusive of
calves, of which there were 10, 527 head.
The combined receipts CT cattle and
calves were 10Y 1867 head. The aggre-
Sate for Julyilast year was So, S43; for
July, 1888. it was 1850, and for July
1887, SO 500.
According to the Western Rural one
benefit OF improved stock is that it is an
educating force In farm life. The owner
of improved stock will not feel satisfied
to see it depreciate, and he studies into
stock breeding and feeding SO as to avoid
the reproach. 1t teaches him to thing
more than in the past, and thinking far
mers are usually successful farmers.
J. E. Saint of New Mexico thinks that
the turn has commenced IN the cattle
business. He has bet hat that year.
ling steers will be worth $40 head be-
fore 1898. He will also bet that prime
beef cattle will bring eight cents in the
Chicago market before the Fourth of
July, 1891.
Col. John o. Talbot leaves for his
ranch in Tom Green county to-day, and
while gone will probably purchase a lot
of one and two-year-oid steer cattle.
