INDIVIDUAL PEDiGREES
Not Very Difficult to Obtain accurate
Iy and Are Valuable in Building
Up the Flock.
By w. r. GILBERT.

The Importance OF the 1alnbing sea-
son TO the stud sheep breeder cannot
be overestimated, for as year sue
ceeds year it is becoming more and
more evident that the full individual
pedigrees are being required in in
creasing numbers for sheep that are
sold for breeding.
It is said by many that it is almost
Impossible to get the correct pedigree
of the lambs. This, however, has been
proved oVer and over again to be a
faliacy, for there are many locks
scattered throughout this country in
which the full individual pedigree Of
each sheep is recorded.
To say there is no trouble attached
to it would be wrong, but to say that
the trouble entailed is insurmountable
is equally wrong. All that is neces-
sary is that proper arrangements
should be made for the work, and if
these arrangements are made it will
surprise many to find how little time
and trouble is necessary.
An hour or so in the largest fiOckS
each morning will suffice to make the
necessary entries and to do the mark
ing of the lambs.
The return for this little trouble is
great, as it places upon record ths
produce of each individual in the
flock, it gives q record Of the result
Of mating of the different sires, it
tiidDltS titt IoCh C"1iti ~ IidCS odt
with certainty the result Of the max
ing Of different strains Of blood, and
it shows cOncluSiVely the value not
only of the different sires used, but
also of the individual ewes Of the
flock.
In another manner it is valuable be-
cause it is a check upon the shep-
herd, providing record Of the number
Of lambs produced and the number
reared.
It enables many a good eve to be
kept on as a breeder and records the
evidence as to whether ewes or
strains are twin breeders or single
lamb breeders.
The early lamb in the ram breed
er'S flock is extremely valuable, par
ticularly in fiocks where showing is
largely practiced n owing to the
closer attention that has been given
to the age Of lambs it is essential that
all who are exhibitors Of lambs should
be able to place, without question, the
actual date Of the birth of their lambs
on the entry form.
All who are breeders Of stud sheep
must be prepared to fulfill the re-
quirements Of that trade. Some, per-
haps, may we'll say there is no other
requirement for this trad than that
Which they can already give, but the
day is not far distant when the mini
mum requirements Of pedigree in
some, if lot all, of the importing
countries will be the sire, the dam
and her sire.

The Chestnut Bark Disease.

About five years ago chestnut trees
we're observed to be dying in the city
of New York. The cause, then un-
known, has since been found to be a
fungous disease of the bark. This dis
ease is very fatal to the trees, and it
has since spread so as to completely
infest the areas lying near New York
City in the States Of New York, ON
necticut and New Jersey. It has also
been found in scattered areas in the
Eastern States from Rhode Island to
Virginia. Where it becomes thorough
ly established it destroys all the
chestnut and chinquapin, but no other
species. In Forest Park. Brooklyn,
over 10000 trees have been killed.
One competent authority estimates the
loss from his disease in and around
New York to be over $4,000, 600.
This disease has been studied by
scientists Of the U. S. Department of
Agriculture, and the Department has
issued a report on it (Bul. 141, Bureau
Ct Plant Industry
1t is believed that this disease was
brought to his country from Japan,
although this has not been positively
demonstrated. It's spread has resulted
mainly from the sale and shipment of
nursery stock. Young chestnut trees
series, in which the disease has re-
Gently been found. The Department
recommends, as a preventive, the care
full inspection of nursery stock. It also
advises, as a means of checking the
spread of the disease, that all affected
trees be cut down and utilized, care
being taken to burn all the brush.

coo worth of machines in Pawnee
county. Kansas, this season. Records
Of the PaWnee county auditor show
that 800 farmers are paying automo-
bile licesenses.
In Tarkio, Mo, is 1.-The largest single
field of corn in the world. 1t covers
5000 acres and is owned by David
Rankin, a millionaire corn raiser and
cattle breeder. Mr.. Rankin is one Of
the richest farmers in America. He
has figured out VIA it costs to raise
a barrel Of corn.
His cultivatorS are drawn by Mis-
souri, mules, and when they start, 45
C~ultivators, two mules to each, and
one man aStride a mule on each ma
chine, the procession goes in a straight
line across Mr.. Rankin's fields six miles
before making q turn.
Rankin was one of the first to see
that cattle feeding was the real profit
making work of the farmer, and that
corn raising was only IN incident.
Il buy 100000 worth of feed every
year besides | raise to fill my
demands" he say
The flood and drought in the begin
ming Of the banne corn season has
taught the farmers q great lesson.
More tile drains will be laid and
more corn ground reclaimed from ood
in the middle West his year than ever
before. bitches and drainage are no
thing to the corn farmer nowadays
he has money and great prosperity

the net pfOflE per acre IS $4.2o. Inc
value Of the pea vines to the land is
at least $500 per acre.
The figures are given, not upon
careful experimentation, but upon OUR
general experience in farming. We
should like for other farmers who
read this to give their estimation Of
the value of commercial fertilizer and
peas, hoping that in this way we may
arouse some more interest in the i'm
proven ent of our soil.
