dam or some other animal in the ped
lgree carried of the show ring prize
at q certain fair. The dairyman is
primarily interested in how much milk
and butterfat he can obtain from his
herd. This is the basis Of income and
profit. Very few milk producers or
dairymen will ever lead his herd bull
into the show ring. Then why should
SO much attention be paid to the show
ring ancestry of the bull or Of the
bull himself?
The immediate ancestors of the herd
bull r the ones that should concern
us most. 1t is more important that
his dam and grandams be high pro-
ducers than for him to be related to
some great and wonderful cow that
appears in his pedigree five or six
generations back. Too much atten-
ton is paid to individual animals OF
families that may be represented OF
appear in the pedigree.
In selecting the herd bull there are
two courses open to the breeder. The
one is to select a young bull, and the
other is to select an old bull that has
been tried and proved to be a prepo-
tent animal. The advantage in select
ing a young bull for the herd is that
1t is cheaper and less risk is attended
toward getting a mean and ugly bull
as we'll as bringing any disease into
the herd. In selecting a young bull
one runs greater risk in getting n
that will transmit the characteristics
desired than in selecting an old bull
that has been tried. The performance
and records in the ancestry are about:
the only guide that a be used in this
selection. When one selects an old
bull that has been tried he has some
certainty that this animal will raise
the production of his herd. When this
can be done 1t is probably the best
method to use, but where one knows
the value Of a bull the price asked for
him is oftentimes prohibitive. -.

done considerable work during recent
years with the feeding Of silage to beef
cattle. In one test It was found that
the corn brought 8 cents per bushea

hay than when no silage was used.
In a later test it was found that silage
fed steers gained during a six months
period an average Of thirty-nine
pounds more per head than cattle Of

that the cost Of gains was 81 per hun.

CHOOSING A SIRE

great many breeders. particularly

only one demand-that the sire be

go further than this and demand that

A great many Of the pure bred bulls

better than scrubs. For the best re-

FEEDING Till FARM HORSE.
Faulty Methods Responsible For Many
Diseases.

Faulty Methods Responsible For Many
Diseases.
Probably the most important part
in the care Of the horse is the feeding.
A large majority Of the diseases among
farm horses result from faulty feeding,
says G. l.. Barnes Of the Colorado ex-
pertinent station. Many make the mis-
take Of not securing the best feed.
Their trouble begins when partially
matured, musty. dusty feed is used.
Several points should be taken into
consideration when the amount of feed
is decided upon. whether the animal Is
accustomed to dry feed and If in good
flesh or in thin. emaciated condition.
A horse should not be fed a large
quantity of hay and grain without ex.
ercise. Many think that because a
horse is thin in flesh 10 work should
be required of him. 1t is always best
to work the flesh into the animal
rather than to fatten him as a steer.
A good plan is to have a stated pro-
gram MS to time and amount Of feed to
be given. Horses by all means should
be fed regularly. Hay requires time
for mastication and digestion. For
this reason the large percentage Of
hay should be fed at night. Horses
soon learn the manner Of giving food
and water, SO it is best to have one
feeder and have this plan followed
out for all the horses. The horse
should receive some water the first
thing in the morning. After watering
feed a small amount of hay and then
give grain after the hay has been
eaten. By this plan the feed. which Is

The present great producing dairy
COW Is the result Of mating togeth-
er the best mixers and repeating
the process with the selection Of the
best of their offspring. For over
1000 years the people of Holland
have pursued this course without a
break, and the great Holstein breed
Of cattle is the result. They have
been much improved in America.
especially in recent years. Rapid
progress is being made in increas-
ing their production largely because
OF the b~usinesslike methods their
breeders have adopted Of requiring
their cows to prove their dairy abil-
