BONEMEAL In THE HOGS RATION.

One of our subscribers writes ask
ing us if the bonemeal used in COM
mercial fertilizer is the same bone
meal that is sometimes used in feed
for hogs. In answer to this we would
say that in some cases it is the same.
All kinds of bonemeal are used in the
manufacture of fertilizers, but not
all is suitable as feed for swine.
Bone meal from glue factory which
has gone through a process in which
acid was used is not suitable for feed.
But any bone meal, especially green
bone, that is ground finely enough,
can be fed Steamed bone meal is
good.
At the Missouri station bone meal
was fed with corn to hogs in fatten-
ing test with very good results.
About an ounce of the meal was fed
to each hog per day. At the Nebraska
station four lots of pigs we're fed to
determine the value of wheat shorts,
tankage, and steamed ground bone as
supplements to corn meal. These
hogs we're pastured on alfalfa and for
this reason the lot fed on corn alone
made about as satisfactory gain as
any, although the lot which was fed
bone meal in addition to the corn had
the strongest bone. Shorts strength
ened the bones some and tankage with
corn produced much stronger bone
rations are given or skimmilk or good
pasture, all of which supply ash ma
terial it is doubtful whether bone
meal is of much value other than for
the purpose of strengthening the
bones. Independent Farmer.

ONE GOOD BOAR.

Many herd OF hogs owes it's prom
inence and outstanding character to
the blood of one boar Most of the
are laid by individual sires The
history of herd, flock or stud is
often the history of single sire. One
frequently hears an experienced
breeder remark that the best invest
menth he ever made or the beginning
of his business was a certain boar,
bull, ram or stallion.
So true is it that sire of marked
breeding powers is the builder of a
herd, we are surprised at the timidity
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1912-10-15

with which men sometimes approach
the purchase of such an animal. Of
course they cannot know, excepting
in rare cases, whether he is what
they ought to have or not; this can
be settled only by actual trial. But
in any case it is time that farmers
and breeders attach more Importance
to sires as the makers of history-and
money.
1t takes nerve TO pay long prices,
in comparatively slack
times, for sires; but our observation
has been that the men who do it
usually make money. Many breeders
will recall that the late B. R. Pierce
paid the reported price of SO, 100 for
the Angus bull Prince Ito at public
sale a dozen years ago. Mr.. Pierce
often said that he was the cheapest
bull ever bought. This is one of
many similar instances showing that
high priced sires of marked breeding
powers always are bargains in the
long run.
It is not necessary that sensational
prices should always be paid for such
animals; it often happens that they
are secured at sacrifice values. Many
a herd building boar has changed
hands several times at a mere per-
centage of his value, judged on the
basis of his breeding record. Many
man has failed to appreciate or de-
velop a celebrated sire. 1t pays to
give a boar a thorough trial before
discarding him. And if he makes
good in impressive fashion the wise
man will hold him at a prohibitive
price.
If man will keep his eyes open.
study herds and types, and give due
attention to pedigrees, he will almost
inevitably discover truly great herd
boar in the course of a decade. 1t he
does, his fortune is made. Once a
whole herd is stamped with the out
standing excellence of a constructive
sire, the owner is sure of a brisk and
profitable trade, and place in the
history of live stock improvement.
1t is for this reason that we so often
repeat the old truth that the sire is
the over-topping consideration for
the breeder who aspires to distinc-
ton. The wise man is always on the
lookout for better sire than he owns,
and he quite often finds what he is
looking for, and is able to purchase
it at bargain price. Berkshire

IS THERE A REASON?

The epidemic of a germ disease
which broke out in Kansas and spread
to Missouri and Nebraska is a live
stock lesson to every farmer, breeder
and livestock man.
Without the slightest warning, the
deadly germ swept off half million
dollars in horses; left the farmers
with their crops helpless and idle in
the fields, and made the Kansas barn
yard and field disease ridden dis
trict into which no outside horses can
safely be brought. The farmers are
terror The total loss can
not be expressed ia dollars and cents.
The farmer of today evidently can
not stand prosperity of health among
his animals. 1t takes a Titanic dis
aster to make the steamship lines put
on lifeboats, or an Iroquois fire to
make theatres provide asbestos cur
tains. Just so it requires a million
dollar loss in horses, time and crops
to teach the farmer that it pays to
spend a few dollars to sterilize and
disinfect his barnyard and animals.

.LARNED CONCEDED TEAM EVEN CHANCE

AUCKLAND, Nov 27.-Among the
passengers by the h. NJ. S. Zealandia,
which arrived from Vancouver today,
are Messrs. w. A. Larned, Beales C.
Wright, and NJ. f. M'Loughlin, the
American tennis players, who will
take part in the Davis Cup matches.
To an interviewer Larned said 1--WE
are fairly fit, and will do our best to
keep up the American end Our
chances? oh, no good asking me to
call it an even chance. think we
have that"
How about preliminary ties? Do
you think they should be played in

liza. 1t would probably mean killing
, the competition, for we could not get
the men to come over for ties. There
may be something in the argument
that it would be fairer for the home
men, but l am satisfied that if such
condition were imposed it would
practically settle the Davis Cup as an
International contest"
Us there anything in the talk Of
reserving the cup for American and
English contests in future, if you
take it away?"
Certainly not in America. We
should be right out against any such
proposition. In the first place, such
reservation would not be in the
best interests of the game; then the

Davis Cup, as an international Cup,
would lose a very great deal of its
value. 1t would in reality cease to be
an international cup. You can take
my assurance, so far as America is
concerned, that there is not going to
be any such condition introduced into
playing for that cup. 1t may have been
suggested in England, but | have not
heard of it. There was a proposition
to institute competition between
England and America, but it fell
through. The conditions of the Davis
Cup were framed after very careful
consideration, and l believe them the
best that could govern the competi-
ton"
Speaking of tennis generally, Larn.
ed said it was pretty popular in Amer.
lea, and there was very keen interest
there in the approaching contest
There was very little difference be
tween the American and English
styles of play although he appeared
to be of the opinion that Americans
were developing a more dashing game
than across the Atlantic. The best
women players of the States were tc
be found on the Pacific slope. The
present four top-notchers were al
Westerners. One of them appeared
to possess an endurance and strength
of stroke which would puzzle most
males. She plays like man, and will
be heard of a good bit soon.
Larned knew nothing of the Amer
lean players movements after the cur
contest. He added that they had no
been asked to go to Australia yet.

He states that the Kauai Athletic

that special effort will be made to
secure Honolulu entries for the diff

Hopper, who for a long time held
the Hawaiian high jump record, ex
poets to get into training and take an
other crack at his conuueror at the
last Lihue meet, Hans Fassoth.
Hopper jumped in this event with
out training, and after having been
out of the game for four years. Not
withstanding this, he cleared the bal
