CATTLE FOR BEEF.
The Various Breeds and Conditions
Best Suited to Each.

The Various Breeds and Conditions
Best Suited to Each.
At the Minnesota Live Stock Breed
ers' association meeting Professor
Shaw in the paper that he read upon
the subject said that on a given area
Of farming land it will be found that
when the prices Of beef are relatively
high a greater profit can be obtained
from cattle kept for milk or for milk
and meat than for meat only. But the
fact remains, says Prairie Farmer,
that even on some farms, if cattle are
to be grown at all, they must be grown
for meat production only. The cOndi-
tons that relate to labor are such that
COWS cannot be MIXED nor can the
milk be cared for in the best fashion.
Some of these have large pastures, and
on others the pasture is limited, al
though other food is grown in great
abundance. Under these conditions
which bred should be kept? Four
breeds will fill the bill reasonably we'll,
but not equally well. These are the
Shorthorn, Hereford, Aberdeen-Angus
and Galloway. Under the conditions
first named-that is, when the areas of
pasture are large and of cultivated
land-small Galloways will probably
fill the bill better than the others.
Especially will this be true where the
animals are considerably exposed in
rough weather. The dams may be of
mixed breeding, the sires being Gallo
way. The young animals would suck
their dams, and at eighteen months or
at thirty months would be sold for
fattening on farms where the neces-
sary foods can be grown. High grade
Galloways fatten well and produce
meat that is eagerly sought in good
markets. On the second class Of farms
named the Aberdeen-Angus would
probably prove the most satisfactory
because of the excellence Of the meat
produced. But when grown under
such conditions the aim should be to
grow meat of the best quality. The
young animals should be pushed along
from birth and put upon the market
at from twenty-four to thirty months.
They should never be allowed to stand
still in growth or to become lean in
flesh, This means that they must get
all the food they want and varied in
kind and whenever they need it. The
profit comes through the excellence of
the meat product and the good price
it brings because Of high finish.

Roosevelt is trying to satisfy his own

CHRISTMAS TREE
FOR THE POOR


As announced last week, The Sun
has Joined forces with Rev. R. W.
Chiles of the Rescue Mission to give
the poor people, and especially the
poor children, Of Paducah Christ
mas tree. The tree will be erected in
the Rescue Mission the day after
Christmas, and all the poor people Of
the city will be welcome to come. II
is the 'intention TO raise funds enough
to take care Of everyone in the city for
whom the prospects for Christmas
are slim-those people TO whom
Christmas means so little for the sim
pie reason that they have never had
one.
To do this The Sun intends that all
its friends shall help. The old people,
the young people and the little child
rem will be given an opportunity to as
sist us, and together we can give the
poor people Of this city a christmas
that they will ever remember.
If every reader of The Sun will dom
ate something, it does not matter how
small the sum, the work can be done
easily. II you don't feel like giving
money give some clothing, some toys,
or anything that you think someone
would be pleased to get on a Christ
mas day.
The Sun is read by an average, at
the least, of 1000 people every day.
Now il each Of these readers will
give rs cents we shall have a good
fund tor our work. Twenty-five cents
is small sum and anyone can spare
that amount. Everyone should, as we
said. and, everyone shall be given
an opportunity to help in this noble
work. Towards that end the follow
ing coupon will be published in the
Sun, and we ask all our readers to
fill il out for some amount. We don't
care what, just so You give something.
