THE PEDIGREE SYSTEM.
By II American stock Has Bees
Brought Up to Its Present stand
ard Of Excellence.

We often hear farmers and stock
raisers say that they care nothing for
pedigree. They forget that it is by O
system of registration that well-bred
animals have been brought up to their
present high standard of excellence, and
that the pedigree is a guarantee that the
animal is what is claimed for it; it
stands, as a rule, for individual merit
If 1t were not for the pedigree system,
farmers would often be imposed upon by
INSCRIPTIONS breeders, by having half
-bloods or grades put off on them as full
bloods. Grade animals have passed with
many as full-bloods; and, in fact, from
their appearance, they sometimes pass
the most careful observer, as genuine.
High-grade animals are quite as good
In many respects as full-bloOds-bu
they are not good breeders. They can
not be depended upon to stamp their
good qualities upon their offspring.
The full-blood is prepotent over the
grade animal, and to grade up herd
we must use full-blood males; to be sure
the new blood is genuine, require pedi-
gree. This must, of course, be backed up
by good individuality. 1t is true enough
that an inferior animal cannot be made
valuable one by pedigree alone But the
good individual whose registered fam
lily history shows a line of ancestry
from which these excellent qualities
have been inherited, can be trusted to
transmit the favorable traits to his off
spring. While undoubtedly too much
stress is often laid on pedigree alone, it
will be fortunate day when more farm
ers come to a realization of the i'm
portance of the pedigree. We shall then
look for a marked improvement in the
quality of the animals found on the farm.

ALCOHOLISM AND CRIME.
A Doctors Testimony as to the Ger
tainty of One Following
the other.

Tradition tells us that a prehistoric
people-whose intelligence was that of
savage-accidentally discovered that
the juices of tropical fruits had under
gone fermentation in the cup-shaped
palm leaves, into which they had drop
ped, and when they drank it in this
state it produced intoxication, leading
these people to believe that this de-
lightful sensation, which seemed harm
less to them, was not only a cure for
their simple ailments, but made them
stronger and more fearless in the terri
BILE wars which they waged in defense
of their hunting grounds.
We have evidence to show that
through long line of heredity we have
handed down to us from these people
the belief, inspired by superstition and
ignorance, that alcohol is to-day a
'cure ALL for most of our ills, and will
serve our purpose in all conditions.
Before mentioning crime in connec-
ton with alcohol wish to review the
effects of alcohol upon the nervous sys-
TEN, which will illustrate the law that
drugs which affect the functions pro-
gressively exhibit their earliest powers
upon those functions which are highest
in development-being those latest ac-
quired by the individual and last to ap-
pear in the species-and influence next
the next lower, until finally the lowest,
namely, those of respiration and circu-
lation, these being the first to appear in
the species.
The primary stimulation and subse-
quent depression of function proceeds,
therefore, in descending scale from
the highest and least firmly fixed, and
latest acquired function, to the lowest
and most firmly fixed one.
Thus, by alcohol, the intellect is af-
fected very early and the Judgment
abolished very soon, even though the
Imagination, the emotions, and the
powers of speech remain stimulated.
Soon these follow the same course,
imagination is abolished, and the pa
tient loses command over his emotion;
next he loses control over his organs of
speech, talking incoherently, thickly
and then can only make noise At the
same time other delicate and lately de-
veloped movements, as those required
for writing, feeling, etc, are inco-
ordinately performed. and soon para
lyzed. General muscular movements,
being less highly and earlier developed
are next to become implicated, being
first incoordinated, and soon abolished.
The paralysis of reflex action follows,
then that of respiration, and finally that
of the heart.
Thus, we see that the first effect of
alcohol is to abolish the intellect, TAX
ing away the higher man and leaving
the animal, which has no idea of right
and wrong and is prone to commit
crime.

thing it would be if the physiological
effects of alcoholic drinks could be re-

Roots Dissolve Minerals

If you will tase two pieces of polished
marble and put on each some soil,
moisten it every day and treat them
just alike, except that in one you put
some grains, and when the grain has
grown some time remove the soil from
each you will find the piece without the
grain will be as polished as ever, but
you will be able to trace where the tiny
roots have taken some of the plant food
from the marble and appropriated it to
itself. Nature has furnished the plant
with an acid in the tiny roots, which,
acting with the moisture when the root
comes in contact with the soil particle,
enables it to make some of the mineral
substances solubleand appropriate them.

RAISING BEEF CALVES.
man VIII Not and Cannot
Afford to Engage.

The feeding of beef calves by the but
ter dairyman necessitates the buying of
the calves of beef strain, for the butter
dairyman cannot afford to keep beef
cows or Jack of all trades cows which
some talk so much about under the name
of dual purpose" cows, says Practical
Farmer-that is COW half way milk
and butter and half way beef and never
the best for either The calves from but
ter cows cannot be made to tip 1900
pounds in year, and if they did it would
all be inside fat and no loins worth men
tioning. The dairyman can afford to
raise his heifer calves on skim milk and
grain, but he had better let the beef ami
mails alone unless he an,buy frst-class
beef calves for the purpose. We have
heard of the dairy shorthorns and have
spent good deal of money to find them.
If they ever existed they have been bred
out in getting the true use of the short
horn, the best of beef We have never
yet talked about special purpose cattle
but some shorthorn man arises to ex-
plain that the shorthorn is the greatest
animal either for dairy or beef. The fact
is that an animal which is the finest dairy
animal cannot possibly be fine beef ami
NAL and vice versa. The two characters
are Numerically opposed, and just to
the extent that a shorthorn or any other
beef breed develops fine dairy qualities,
to that extent she becomes poorer beef
animal. Mere size does not make an ami
NAL good beef, and fat laid on by dairy
animal inside is not as profitable as the
fat on the loins of real beef animal
If mans interest is in butter, let him
keep the best cows for that purpose and
leave baby beef to the beef men, while
he more proftably uses his skim milk to
raise heifers and feed pigs.
