Good Draft Horses.

The A. G. Ruby Co.. of Portland,
Oregon is probably the largest breeder
and importer of pure bred draft Stall
lions in the Pacific Northwest.
Their advertising is probably quite
familiar to all our readers, but in this
issue they publish list of their win
nipgs at the three big Washington and
Oregon Shows. 1t is seldom that
more formidable list of prize winnings
as ever shown even by the big Eastern
exhibitors at the Chicago International
or the big eastern State fairs. No
man can afford to own or raise poor
horses. It's just as easy to feed colt
that will mature into a $500 or S400
horse as one that will never be
worth more than 500. In this rough
country the demand for big horses
will constantly increase. With the
small number of breeding mares now
available over the entire country too
many good drafters can not be raised.
1t is predicted that Seattle alone of
our many great cities ill require TO-
10000, horses in the next five years.
That means total valuation of at
least ten million dollars for one city,
tho they be valued at the low estimate
of 800 each. The surrounding country
outside of the cities within a radius
of forty miles will need as many more
who will be prepared to get a share
of this money.

The Rush Of Cattle.

Prophecy of cattle shortage has been
sadly discredited at all western stock
Yards this week. supply having been
enormous. Chicago has received over
50, 900 head. 1000 more than came a
year ago, and the price list is full of
blow holes, only few choice bulls
holding their own. This rush mar
ketward merely justities reiteration
of prophecy of impending shortage,
as it is ill-disguised liquidation.
Feeders are determined to get rid of
cattle and save feed all over the farm
ing belt, while the supply from west
ern ranges represents a 'last run of
shad." Grazing outfits by the score,
large and small, are cleaning up the
remnants of herds that formerly num-
bered thousands, and when that move
ment ceases few weeks hence there
will be few branded cattle on the open
range. Fine weather may check Ii
quotation of native stuff, but the first
herald of winter will precipitate more

Dairy Department
Suggestions Regarding Tuber-
culosis.

State Veterinarian w. III. Lyttle,
has issued the following circular es-
pecially to dairymen around Portland.
1t contains SO much that is of practi
cal value to dairymen anywhere that
we publish it in full:
Tuberculosis in cattle is a prevent
able disease. herd when freed or
found free will not become infected
unless diseased animals are intro
duced. tuberculosis is a disease OF
close domestication, and it cannot
thrive in animals or spread SO rapid
ly where the animals are out in the
open or where they are housed in
buildings that closely simulated and
embody the protective forces of ma
ture, such as pure air, sunlight and
freedom from dust and excessive
moisture.
Your barns, should be regularly
whitewashed, thus givi ng more sur
face and encapsulating all dust and
infective materials that may be on the
inner surface of the building.
You should provide sufficient win
dow lighting space in your barns
four feet square for each animal-as
sunlight or daylight is one of the en-
emies of tuberculosis and other dis
eases. BY Ringing the windows at
the bottom and allowing them to open
at the top, and enclosing them to
open at the top, and inclosing the
side of the windows with a V shaped
inclosure, a cheap and effective form
of ventilation may be had, especially
if the barn is provided with aroof
ventilating cupola. Window frames
covered with white muslin assist in
ventilation and give sufficient light.
Manure and litter should be cleaned
out daily, as the same from tubercul-
GUS animals. if allowed to soil the
food of other animals, may be the
means of carrying the disease to
them.
Animal should also be confined to
one particular stall or feed rack, as
by changing about they may expose
other animals, should they chance to
be diseased.
Animals that are unthrifty and con-
tinue poor in flesh. and those with
chronic coughs. should be regarded
with suspicion, and should be tested
for tuberculosis or clinically eXamin
ed for the same. However, many ami
mails in good flesh will be found dis
eased if tested. Animals that die
when in state of emanciation (poor
in fiesh) should not be fed to hogs
as they may transmit the disease to
them. Any person desiring his herd
of cate tested for tuberculosis may
have the same done without cost to
himself by making application to the
state veterinarian or county veterin-
arian, or by making application to
the United States bureau of animal
industry.
