SIM sler Steers and Quicker Profits Are
Now Demanded

The law of the survival Of the dttest
holds good in every kingdom-mineral,
vegetable and animal. What was the
fttest a few years ago is unfit now,
and, in accordance with this law Of
shifting necessities, we find that with
In our memory the whole gamut of
cattle has been run through in sup
plying the larder with beef.
Not many years ago the ponderous
steer bred on the western prairies was
the best selling beef animal in the
world. He was wanted by exporters, by
butchers, by cattle connOisseurs and
by gourmands. To be i'm prime condi-
ton II was essential that he be four
pounds.
The demand now is for a younger
and fatter animal, something through
which the porcelain teeth of the age
can sink without effort. 70 be highly
priced and priced this young animal
should be two years old or under,
should weigh 1000 pounds and must
have been fed for the market from the
day he was calved. The more blood
he has In him Of these now fashionable
breeds and the sooner after birth he is
in condition to be put on the market
the better for the pockets of the breed
ers.
The profits of the growers on such
steers are greater than on the old style
four-year-olds The two-year-old ma
lures sooner, sets fat quicker-the bet
ter his blood the quicker he fattens-
and, while he weighs about 80 per cent
less than his predecessor, his cost per
pound Is much less also. The breeder
has the expense of his feed and care
for only half the time he had his pred
ecessor's, one item in cost of raising
which more than compensates for his
Lesser weight. 1t Is the breeders max
i'm that the quicker an animal can be
put In condition for the block the
greater the proportionate profits. Good
breeding, careful feeding and early ma
turity are very essential to success in
cattle breeding. 1t is well for the
breeder 10 remember that competition is
sharper and prices lower than In for
mer times and that economy in those
items of greatest cost-food and time
should be considered in meeting the
demands of the market A steer can
be fed TO a weight of 1000 pounds
cheaper than ii can be fed to weight
of 1000 pounds. aud. while the immedi.
ate profit is smaller, it will come quick
er. Again. the profit on two well bred
two-year-olds Is larger than on one of
the old style four-year-olds.
This argument presupposes that the
breeder has a good animal to start
with. Scrubs pay poorly at best and
often do not pay at ALL The price of
the coarse grains and feedstuffs is low.
but to give ii 10 poor animal is al
most like putting salt In sieve, while
to feed il to one of good blood is to use
your five talents TO make FIVE other
talents. Besides these considerations
the farmer will have had the addi-
tlonal great advantage of a supply of
manure which will bring very tangible
profits in increased crops.-E. Russell
