FEEDING CATTLE
FOR FIRST TIME
Profit Depends on Steady, Con-
sistent Gains From

Those who are feeding cattle for the
first time this season should remember
that getting bunch OF steers on full

months time High-pressure feeding ia

ordinary rations and the animal must
gradually get accustomed to the

consistent gains throughout the feed.
ing period. Most feeders prefer to
start their cattle on grass. giving a
few stalks Of fodder corn a day to
each steer and gradually increasing.
The change is then made to snapped
corn fed in the hunks, the final change
then being made to husked corn or
whatever form the grain is fed in.
Every time the ration is changed
such changes should be made gradual
ly. This applies especially to the first
few weeks in which the feeding ia
started and to the latter period of the
feeding operation. when there is the
more danger Of getting the stock on
feed. And remember the proflt in
feeding cattle depends on steady, con-
sistent gains. meaning good returns
for the feed consumed. every time
they get on feed meaning Just so
much lost time.

OF MOST PROFITABLE BREED
OF SWINE IS DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE
Many People Say Rase the Breed You Like Best and You VIII
Be Successful" but That Is Not Always the case-Expe

The question OF which breed Of
hogs to raise in order to obtain the
biggest profit. has proven very seri-
GUS one with many farmers. Some
people say, raise the breed you like
best, and you will be successful"
but that is not always the case.
The following experience of a Mary
land man may help other swine breed
ers.
From an experience of over 30
years In hog raising during which time
l have tried almost all OF the popular
breeds have settled upon the Berk-
shires and their crosses as the most
profitable hog for me. Thirty-one
years ago l broke away from the ra-
zor-back, and invested in a pair OF

that they we're too small for profit.

L.., pays OF the Ranches.

The day OF large ranches in Texas
is passing away, but there are still
four with an area Of over one million
acres each and quite large number
Of over 100000 acres. Much of this
land is bought as low as 20 cents per
acre. and is now worth "a to 81 per
acre. These ranches are being con-
tinuaIly divided up into large farms.
Last year over one million acres OF
ranch lands were sold to small set
tiers for general farming purposes.
