What Are Miracles?

Gov. Hook, of Kansas, says: If
man can squeeze out of the air
liquid that is one of the most
wonderful things in the world; If
a man can make an instrument
so that he can put something to
his ear and something to his
mouth, and talk to a friend a
thousand miles away, if man
can make an instrument with
which he can examine the inter
nal organs, look into the human
body and see the bones on the
Othe side; if man can make a
little cylinder and wrap the hui
man voice around it, and years
after the author of that voice is
dead, can repeat that voice to the
listening friends and loved ones,
if a man can work these modern
miracles of science, it is easy for
me to believe that God could
work the miracles of the Bible.

their stock pure and the varieties
true to name, but they often buy

in handling. If nurserymen and
seedsmen are to be censured
more than other business men

or of the Ohio Station it is because

sources, by exchange or purcha-,.

1t has been demonstrated that
selling hogs t eight and ten
months old, and cattle at one and
two years old is the most profita-
BILE way to dispose of them. At
these ages they yield more net
profit for the feed and labor be-
slowed on them than if kept to
older age. But if this practice
is kept up generally the question
of the future will be where will
we get breeding stock from which
to supply the ever increasing de-
mand Of both cattle and hogs.
The Adair County news., 1910-01-05
stock industry is the foundation
of maintaining soil fertility. If

stock industry is the foundation
of maintaining soil fertility. If
+ live stock husbandry is not ex-
plotted in conjunction with agri-
cultural operations decreased
crOnaverages are certain, unless
! the farmer uses chemical ferti-
lizers.. As an adjunct to general
agriculture live stock is essential,
as animls consume much that
otherwise would be a total loss
and are regarded as living ma
chimes to convert cheaper rough
age and grains into more valua-
bic products. The droppings of
animals are natural fertilizers,
and the farmer who follows
mixed husbandry is sure to in
crease his prosperity, says Drov-
ers' Journal.
While virgin soils will produce
bountiful crops. the yield soon
declines unless there is restora-
ton of the elements of fertility to
the land. The successful breeder
must have a natural admiration
for the stock of the farm to make
his breeding operations profitable
He must like his live stock well
enough to give attention to their
ply steal comfort and to endeavOr
to improve their general quality.
| Unless a farmer has a personal
pride in his live stock he will
never rise above mediocre as a
breeder. 1t is evident that the
live stock industry has not been
given the consideration on the
farm which its importance de-
mands.
To succeed it is necessary to
understand pedigrees of the stock
on the farm. Pedigrees are only
authentic history of ancestors
and need to be understood as the
basis of animal improvement.
One farm has high-grade animals
while another ranch may be
stocked with scrubs. The ances-
tors of the grades were more per-
feet animals than the primogeni-
tors of the scrubs.
! An understanding of pedigrees
is a strong incentive to breed up
the stock on the farm. There is
future for the farmer who ad-
mires good stock and has
pleasure in studying pedigrees
and mastering the principles Of
improved breeding. The pedigree
of an animal is important because
it is an authentic record of the
ancestors of the animal. If the
ancestors are of excellent quality
the pedigree or line of breeding
is good; but if the ancestors were
only of mediocre quality, the
breeding is poor and the animal
will be of small value for breed
ing purposes. High excellence in
the near ancestors is of more i'm
portance than in remore COLA
terals. Occasionally breeding de-
teriorates through the tendency
of all live stock to breed back to
some inferior remote ancestor. If
the pedigree includes many an
cestors of noted quality, the
breeding is gilt edged and the
farmer can anticipate good re-
suits in the production of live
stock.
