HEREFORDS WIN AS GRAZERS
Their Ability to Fatten on Grass Diet
Is Characteristic Which APP
peais to All.

There is no breed Of cattle which
approaches the Hereford as grazers,
and their ability to fatten on a grass
diet of their own cleaning is a char
acteristic which appeals to all who
are looking for the most economical
method of producing beef.
Extremes Of weather, which will
cause other cattle to seek shelter or
shade does not deter the Hereford
from eating his fill; and the contrast
after an unfavorable season between
the Hereford and other breeds is very
marked, writes August Haedecke IN
the Northwestern Agriculturist.
The Hereford can be fattened at
any age with equal rapidity. Whether
baby beef or a more mature product
is desired the Hereford will salts
factorily meet all requirements.
The impressiveness Of the Here
ford sire, when used on scrubs or
native cattle, is quality which rec
ommends itself to breeders of every
section. The color, coat and mark
ings are all ideal and all are trans
mitted by the sire to his offspring,
making a uniform bunch Of animals
which will instantly attract the buyer
No dollhouse pampering is requisite
TO fit the Hereford steer for market
There is nothing capriciOus about his
appetite and all that is necessary is
to give him a chance at the feed
trough.
The Hereford bull is of mild even
temperament, not in the least excit
able or cross, yet never overlooking
an opportunity to increase the number
of his offspring. The COWS are good
mothers and supply abundant milk
for their calves.

SCRUB HOG is IMPROBABLE

Avoid the Cheap and "5i9 Can" Bak-
ina Powders.

The cheap baking powders have but one
recommendation: they certainly. give the
purchaser plenty of powder for his money
but it's not all baking powder; the bulk
is made up Of cheap materials that have
so careessly made from inferior mate
rails that they will not make light, whole
some food. Further, these cheap baking
powders have a very small percentage of
leayening gas; therefore it takes from two
to three times as much of such powder to
raise the cake or biscuit as it does of Calu-
met Baking Powder. Therefore, in the long
run, the actual cost to the consumer of the
cheap powders is more than Calumet
would be.
Why not buy perfectly wholesome baL-
ing powder like Calumet, that is at the
same time moderate in price and one
which can be relied upon? Calumet gives
the cook the least trouble.

Open-Air Schools Increasing.

Since January l, 1907 sixty-five open
air schools for children afflicted with
or predisposed to tuberculosis have
been established in twenty-eight cities,
according to an announcement made
by the National Association for the
Study and Prevention Of tuberculosis.
The first open air school in the United
States was established on January 1,
1907, by the board of education or
Providence, r. l.. at the instance OF
DR. Ellen A. Stone. The next school
was established in May of the same
year at Pittsburg, and the third at
Boston in July, 1908. According 10
the reports received by the National
Association, the result of the open air
class-work has been to restore most
of the children to normal health and
efficiency. One of these open air
schools or classes should be establish

He has the reputation of being able
to stand all kinds of rough treatment
and still survive.
He is regarded as being able to re-
sist disease better than the improved
breeds Of hogs We very much doubt
whether this quality attributed to the
scrub hog is true, since we have no.
ticed that hog cholera takes the scrub
as, well as the we'll bred hog.
One thing is sure that the scrub
hog can consume more valuable feed
and give less In return than any other
animal that we know of.
A farmer who owns herd Of scrub
hogs seldom needs any other corn
crib than his hogs.
He never gets rich selling pork, and
in fact if he depended upon his hogs
to make him money to buy better
bred hogs he would never own better
ones.
The scrub hog usually keeps his
owner so poor that he is not able to
buy better stock. In fact, this is the
excuse usually given for his exist
ence. Poor farming and scrub hogs
are usually found associated together.
They are near and dear companions.
Both make a rapid retreat before
progressive spirit and there is not a
better evidence of the general progress
siveness of a people than the absence
of the scrub hog from a community.
