where other breeds would find diff
Guilty to pick a living. 1t would seem
that this breed could be used to good
advantage in this country. Being i'm
pressed with the good qualities pos
sessed by the Ryelands, we reproduce
herewith picture of a modern type Of
ram of this breed.
AS a sire the Ryeland ram is most
impressive and in high favor for pro-
ducing fat lambs by ewes of his own
or other breeds. The lambs are gen.
orally born fat, and they retain their
condition when we'll managed in virtue
of their natural hardness of constitu-
ton.
Ryeland sheep were supplanted in
Great Britain to a large extent some
years ago during the rage of Shrop-
shire and other improved Downs. The
tendency of recent times, says Profess
or Wallace, has been to breed them up
again. 1t was estimated in 1908 that
there were only about thirty focks OF
Ryeland sheep in existence. In 1907
the number Of flocks was placed at 200

SHORTHORN SPLENDOR.
Breeders Round Out Great Year on
Both Sides of the Atlantic.

A progressive policy is being pursued
by the American Shorthorn Breeders
association to procure the extension of
the market for our Shorthorn cattle.
Last fall, it will be remembered, the
officers of the society undertook per-
sonally conducted expectation of bulls
and heifers into Mexico, and, while
the financial results showed little Of
no gain, a fine lot of cattle were sold
to influential breeders, whose example
In purchasing will doubtless be follow
ed by others.
During the trip it was borne in on
the officials that if the effort should
be followed up intelligently many more
Shorthorns could be sold south Of the
Rio Grande, and to that end arrange
ments have been completed for the
proper representation of the trade. l..
Villareal Madero, San Antonio, Tex,
has been appointed agent of the asso-
citation and has been conducting nego-
tiations with the Mexican officials.
1t is made plain that the officials OF
the American Shorthorn association
made a most excellent move when they
invaded Mexico with a lot of Short
horn cattle. They have secured the
active cooperation of the Mexican de-
partment of agriculture and also OF
the various state departments, which
must in time succeed in opening up q
fruitful demand for our cattle. 1t is
work Of this kind that counts.
At Smthfieid.
Shorthorn breeders have rounded ou'
a great year on both sides of the AT
lantic. A calf of that breed was cham
pion at the International, and now thu
returns from Smithfield bring news Of
a sweeping victory for the ''red, white
and roam" Peter Dunn's steer Gentle

SWINE RAISER.

The practice which led to the intro
duction of soy beans into the cropping
system of a very successful Illinois
farm which is devoted wholly to hog
raising and the production Of fine seed
corn Is of interest. The hogs In win
ter are penned on about four acres Of
clover sod. During the winter the soil
of this pen or lot becomes more or
less puddled and Is rather difficult to
bring into condition for a good seed
bed In spring. This can be accom-
plished, however, by continued stirring
and clod crushing. But this takes time
and necessitates late planting. Here
was a need for crop that could be
planted in late spring or early summer
and yet fit into the general farm
scheme. Several crops were tried, and
soy beans proved most to the owners
satisfaction.
The Grain Ration.
A light grain ration is not the most
economical for growing pigs unless I'M
der peculiar circumstances, when az
falfa Is abundant, grain very high III
price and market conditions warrant
holding the hogs. 1t seems probable
that two or more pounds Of corn daily
per each hundredweight Of hogs Is
more profitable than lighter ration.
The cost of gain is not reliable cri-
terion of profit. A cheap gain may
be so slow as to be Improbable. Time.
labor and investment should be con-
sidered when reckoning profits. A full
grain ration, though making the gain
more costly, usually gives greater prof
its because of the larger amount Of
business transacted in a given time
with a given number of hogs.-W. P.
Snyder, Nebraska.
Sunshine IN the Pispsn.
The central hog house is not good
for sows to farrow in during the early
spring, say February and March, &C
cording to an Iowa swine grower. "a
hog house like that" he says, us too
damp and too cold. Dampness Is the
starting point of thumps. 1t is very
difficult to get sunshine into the pens,
especially those in the north row. Sun
shine in pigpen is the whole secret
Of success in the raising of early pigs"

THE EARLY PIGS.
Comfort For the Mother Hog and Her
New Family.
By ]. H. GRISDALE.

BY ]. H. GRISDALE.
For a week or ten days before far
rowing or parturition occurring in cold
spring weather the SOW should receive
a rather liberal ration of milk produc.
ing food, such as bran mashes, chopped
oats, skim milk, shorts, II little oilmeal,
ETC., being careful always to see that
there are no signs of constipation, that
the bowels are quite loose.
The attendant should always be on
good terms with every sow. but this
should very particularly be the case for
a few weeks before, during the time OF
and for few weeks after parturition.
BY little petting and few kindness
es that appeal to her sense of what is
nice the attendant can win the conf
dence of almost any sow, provided, or
course, that he has not previously won
her dislike
Parturition should take place In a
pen specially prepared for the event
and for the accommodation of the
mother and her family during the first
few weeks of their lives. Only small
amount of cut straw or chaff should be
given for bedding, thus no opportunity
being offered the little ones to get lost
or tangled up and so exposed to danger
of death from cold, hunger or crushing
by the SOW. AS further protection
board about eight inches wide placed
fiat horizontally about eight inches
from the floor along the wall, to which
1t should be firmly attached, will be
found of considerable value, affording
space where the little ones can run
| or be showed when the mother lies
| down.
Generally speaking, the less inter.
ference at parturition the better. II
the weather be cold good plan is to
have some clean dry straw in box OF
barrel, into which the little ones may bt
placed as they are born, being frs,
dried with cloth. If parturition is
slow in cold weather 1t is sometimes
wise to put some warm bricks or fla
stones in the box with the youngsters
They should be allowed to suck as soor
as possible after birth.

BEEF FEEDER.

Sugar beet culture means more cat
tie and larger crops generally rather
than less, provided always that the
pulp from the beets is properly util-
lied. In practice fifty, to seventy-five
pounds of pulp per day are fed to cat
tie. This, however, is said to depend
on the cattle, and more may be given,
up to 100 pounds, if they will eat it.
q. W. Allen.
The Famous Scotch Beet,
Scotch beef Is not produced In any
locality or confined to any one class
of farmers, but is produced on practi-
cally all farms, large and small, with
in the boundaries of Scotland. The
number of cattle fed by an individual
is not usually so large as in America
and depends upon the amount of rough
age and roots available.
In former years many of the north
of Scotland cattle feeders in fattening
three-year-old and four-yearo old cattle
fed nothing but straw and swedes.
This method of feeding does not now
prevail to the same extent, as the tend
ency ON every hand is to market ami
mails at an earlier age, and grain and
cake have been added to the rations.
Feed Value of Soft Corn.
A majority Of our farmers have to
face the problem Of how to most prof
itably dispose of crop of soft corn.
II 1t Is very soft, the ears will freeze
up hard during the winter and next
spring will either be rotten or soured,
in either case not very valuable for
feeding purposes.
Several years ago we had little ex-
perience along this line. We fed the
entire field to cattle in the form of
shock corn. Before the hard freezes
came ON the bunch made as good gains
upon the soft ears as they did upon
the fully matured ones. But when the
cold weather came the ears froze up
and became solid. and the steers ate
only the fodder and the husks, leaving
the ears, which could not be eaten. OF
course the gains did not come. When
the ears thawed out they had no food
value.-C. A. Waugh In National Stock
man.
Beef Cattle at Profit.
Good cattle can be fed at a profit and
higher prices can be obtained for cot
tonseed products, corn and hay by
feeding the same to a good type Of
beef cattle than by selling In q cash
market, and at the same time the fer
tilizer material may be retained on tho
farm to increase the productiveness OF
the SOFIA. Smith, Mississippi.

Meat INSPECTION.

A commission of seven expert pa

ing the year to advise regarding those
portions of the meat regulations which
deal with the disposal of diseased car

report, the general conclusion Of the
commission was that ''if there be any
general error in the regulations this
is in favor of the public rather than
in favor of the butchers and packers"

MIXED MILK.

Easy Calculation In standardizins or
Blending Milk.
standardized milk" and blended
milk" are terms applied to milk which
has been SO modified as to contain a
definite amount of one or more Of Its
constituents. The most important and
at the same time the most variable
constituent is fat. To standardize milk
as regards fat it is simply necessary
to add or remove a certain amount OF
this constituent or to add or remove
a certain amount of skim milk. One
thousand six hundred pounds Of milk
containing 80 per cent Of fat may be
standardized to per cent of fat by re-
moving 800 pounds of skim milk. A
simple method Of determining the
