Digging Potatoes
With a Scoop
Shovel

A judieious or economical, man will
not dig potatoes with a scoop shovel if
he can get a bright clean potato fork
to dig them.
A wide-awake young man will not
spend nine months or year preparing
himself for stenographic position when
with a better system and better in
struction he can prepare himself better
in from four to six months.
He knows that four months time
saved means four months salary earned.
He knows it is wiser for him to pay
fifty dollars for an up-to-date course
and first class instruction than to ac-
eept a free scholarship" on the scoop
shovel plan. He knows that in the four
months saved he can have earned from
$500 to $500, besides having had the ad
vantage of superior educational training.

The descriptions presented are based on
data secured in an investigation at whole

yards, Chicago, and also at prominent
wholesale and retail markets in Chicago
and other cities which are supplied from
the large houses at the Union stock yards,
and may be considered standard for all
the great packing centers of this coun-
try; and since most American wholesale
markets are supplied from these centers,
the classification may be regarded as
standard for the country. 1t should be
borne in mind that the classifications are
those of the wholesale meat trade and
not of the live stock market, and that the
weights given refer to dressed carcasses
and cuts, and in no case to live animals.

Raising Beef Cattle in the South

The work of eradicating the Texas
fever" tick is progressing satisfactorily
in the south; every year new areas are
/ freed from the tick and with the pro-
gress of the work there comes an added
interest in all kinds of cattle production.
When the ticks in one section of the
country are exterminated, renewed in
terest begins to be Immediately mani
tested in the beef cattle business, as the
southern farmers now realize that the
Texas fever tick has been practically
| the only drawback to the cattle
business in the past When the tick is
/ finally extermined no section of the
/ United States will be better suited to
beef production than the south. because
of its mild climate, long grazing season
and cheap lands.
There are many reasons why the south
ern states should raise more beef. First,
the south, under the present system of
farming has thousands of acres-and
good ones, too-which are not being used
at all. Statistics tell us that only about
40 per cent of the tillable or arabic land
of the south is being used. Sixty per
cent of the land is lying idle and returns
to<the owner not cent in wealth. All
of the lands cannot be used as cotton
lands, because, first there are not
enopgh people to work the lands in any
such way. and second, many of these
acres are not suitable for cultivation. In
fact, many acres that are now under cot
ton cultivation should be turned into per-
manent pastures and grazed with live
stock No state can become wealthy
when only 40 per cent of the land capital
is being used The grocer, or the banker,
or the hardware merchant, could not pos
sibly make a profit on his business If
he used only 40 per cent of his capital
And the farmer cannot hope to be sue
cessful in his operations until he begins
to make use of at least reasonable

Breeders, feeders, or investigators who
consider only the cost of production and
the market value of the live animal, ig-
noring one of the most important fac
may thus fail to follow the most rational
lines of Improvement in breeding and
feeding. With an understanding of meat
trade requirements it is possible for a
stockman to judge the carcass yield and
quality of his animals as intelligently as
buyers at the stock yards, because his
knowledge of the feeds used, length of
feeding period and gains made are es-
seitial in making such estimates as the
apparent form, condition, and quality of

cessful when only $4,000 out of possible
$4,000 is being used.
Then again beef cattle should be more
generally introduced because Of the good
they do in building up and maintaining
soil. Under the present system of cotton
farming the soils are becoming poorer
and poorer With the Introduction OF
cattle the soil will begin to be built UP.
A third reason why beef should be
more generally produced In the south, is
that there is demand for it, and the de-
mand should be met in order that the
money be kept at home. At the present
time the south produces but a small pro-
portion Of the meat that her people con-
sumo Packing houses are now being
built throughout the south, and good
markets are assured for the beef animals
which the farmer produces.
Beef cattle are peculiarly suited to no
into the farming operations Of the south.
The farms are large, and many acres
are not being used because of the lack Of
sufficient labor. At present there is no
better way TO put the whole farm TO
work than by introducing beef cattle into
the system of farming. They require but
a small amount of labor in addition to
that used upon the average cotton farm
The hog, while he deserves a prominent
place upon almost every farm, cannot be
made to use all of the large uncultivated
areas on the farms, for he is Aot strictly
a grazing animal Many farmers who
have the large uncultivated areas are not
now sufficiently skilled in the handling Of
live stock to introduce sheep or dairy
cattle, as the sheep and dairy business
require more skin than the beef business.
Then, too, the dairy business requires
an increase in the mount of labor used
upon the farm; and the labor item is one
that many farmers are trying to reduce.
