Good Food and Care.
Corn Belt Type of Pig.

Today pigs readily mature at eight
to ten months. The corn belt type is
compact, blocky and short legged, with
we'll developed shoulders, back, loin
and hams, has quiet disposition a
marked tendency to obesity: and early
maturity and is frequently deficient in
bone and in reproductive power. This
type is largely the outgrowth of feed
especially the use of corn, and environ.
ment Another factor in the develop
ment of this type has been the market
demand for young hogs weighing from
200 to 800 pounds.
1t is fortunate for farmers that the
market demands type of hog that is
the natural outgrowth of a common
feed and environment, as it is a well
established fact that the risk is less
and the gains more economical with an
early maturing type than a late matur-
ing hOg-EXchange

In Feeding Sugar beet Pulp.

1t has been found by the Colorado
experiment station that an important
consideration in feeding sugar beet
pulp is cleanliness in the management
Of trolghs and feeding places when
pulp is used. Only such amounts of
pulp must be fed at one time as the
cattle will clean up with reasonable
waste Unless this be done the troughs
will become filled with frozen pulp in
the winter and with foul, soured pulp
during the warm weather. Also it was
observed that cattle would not eat pulp
that had been nosed over and breathed
upon previously. 1t was found to be
folly to place a large quantity of the
feed in the troughs with the intention
Of having single feed last the greater
part of the day. That practice resulted
in eyerfeeding the cattle at single
feed and causing an'unlimited waste Of
pulp.

MAKING STEERS.
Lack of Quality In Steers For Feed
Lots of the Corn BeIt.

AQCk Oh qualify In Steers F'Or feeu
Lots Of the Corn Belt.
The value Of we'll formed steers for
the feed lot is admitted by all cattle
feeders. The difficulty of obtaining
such among the small herds Of cattle
of the corn belt states is, however, just
as universally recognized. This lack
of quality in the steers Of this region
is usually attributed to improper breed
ing, the use Of poor sires and the ad-
mixture of the blood of the dairy
breeds.
Stating the case thus, J. J. Edgerton
Of Illinois declares in Orange Judd
Farmer that care of the steer during
calfhood is very largely responsible
for the kind Of steer he makes in the
end While the steers of the corn belt
states are mostly raised in small num-
bers, the total number that are pro
duced in this section is very large and
the increased wealth that would be
added to the accounts of the farmers
there located, if these steers were all
properly raised, can hardly be esti-
mated
A Few Steers a Side Issue.
Perhaps one of the chief causes IF
this lack of proper raising is the fact
that with most of the farmers the rails
ing of few steers is a side issue and
is given less attention than the rest Of
their. business. Under such circum
stances the calf loses his natural sup
ply of food through the COW drying UP
and cannot supplement it with pasture.
In addition he is,sweltered with heat,
tormented with flies and possibly does
not have a liberal supply of clean
fresh water to drink. No calf can be
expected to develop properly under
such conditions. If the COWS are being
MIXED and the calves fed by hand on
the skim milk they fare little better as
to care and proper feeding.
Good Food and Care.
A liberal supply of clean, sweet
wholesome food must be supplied in
one form or another An abundance
Of clean fresh water is of equal inn
portance, and shade in the hot weather
is also of great value. The question
of possible shortage of pasture in
case of a severe drought should be
given forethought and provided for in
some manner before it arrives. Some
annual crop can be grown for such IN
emergency, and If there is no occasion
to use it it can be made into dry feed
for the winter
