VALUE OF GOOD BULL
Must Have Good Breeding for the
Best Results.
Most Practical Way Is for DaIryman
TO Breed His Own cows-Impor
tant Matter Is to Find Results
Given In Milk Pail.

On the majority Of the dairy farm,
we ind herd of grade COWS. It Is
impossible for everyone to own pure
pred cows, but 1t is possible for all tc
Dulid up their herds to a standard
where they are practically the equa
of pure bred.
Every dairyman who is the owner
OF a herd Of grade cows should be
cognlzant of the fact that there is
nothing 80 important, SO far as i'm
proving the herd is concerned, as q
pure-bred bull that shows all of the
desirable characteristics.
1t is fact that the influences OF
the bull are equal to those of the COW
when both are of the same standard
but when the COWS are of low grade
the bulls influence is just as much
greater as his qualities are superior
to those of the cows.
However, If the bull be not up to
tne grade of the COW. the progeny will
snow a retrogression. says writer in
tne Farm Progress. Hence the i'm.
portance Of having a bull that is su.
perlor to the cows so that there NAV
De a continuous tendency toward i'm.
proVement SO far as the progeny is
concerned
Inc individuality of the bull repre-
sents 80 per cent. Of the breeding
Value OF the herd at the beginning of
system of breeding for improve
ment of the standard of the herd,
put by continuing after the first cross
and working until standard equal
to the pure breed is secured we must
admit that the bull really represents
lOo per cent. of the breeding value.
His superior qualities are what have
builded up the herd.
The most practical way for the
dalryman who cannot afford to pay
the high prices that breeders ask for
their pare-bred COWS to secure a first
class producing herd, is to breed his
pest COWS to bull of known virtues
and then raise the heifer calves. BY
breeding them properly it will only
be few generations until he will
nave herd that is practically as val.
liable as one composed of pure-blood-
ed animals.
Before beginning any system of
breeding the dairyman should ac-
quaint himself with the record of the
results given in the milk pail by the
bulls dam, for that is what he is
breeding for. Remember that the
bull will transmit any weak points
more readily than the strong points,
which is proof that the keeper should
know Just what sort Of ancestors the
bull may have had.

Test for OIeo.

A convenient test for oleo compared
with butter is to heat with lighted
match a teaspoon containing a small
piece OF butter, says the Wisconsin
Dairyman. II butter. 1t will froth
freely. but without sputtering. A piece
OF oleo under the same conditions does
not froth, but melts down like grease

much like oleo. because the fats which
produce the frothing have been most

Have Cause to Give Thanks,

If we remember what were the con-
ditions, circumstances, events and in
cidents of the first Thanksgiving day,
and allow thought to traverse even
rapidly and specifically the path of
blessing until this Thanksgiving day
of 1913, we shall have faint vision, at
least, of that for which the land should
offer praise. If we dwell only upons
the great benefits that affect the gen
eral welfare, abundant reason appears
why We should set season apart. as
semble in our places of worship, and
lay upon the altar our united Offering
OF praise. And this is not alone for
abundant harvests, for commercial
prosperity, for continued peace and in
creasing power; not alone for good be-
slowed, but thanks for evil spared: for
fires of trouble from which we passed
unframed; for the foods that threat
ened but did not overwhelm; for the
casting down that yet did not destroy:
for all calamities endured and over
past
Surely if ever land should in humil-
ity bring tribute from multitudes of
grateful hearts, ours should make this
a true Thanksgiving day.

BEST SPIRIT FOR THE TIME
Good Idea Is That Thanksgiving Is the
Noblest Work That
Man Can Do.

Thanksgiving: The act of rendering
thanks, expressing gratitude for favors
F.! or mercies; public celebration of d.
| vine goodness.
Thanksgiving day: A day set apart
| for religious services in acknowledg-
ment of the divine goodness.
BY nature man is religious; and
Thanksgiving day is an annual re-
hinder of this innate tendency. The
very first Thanksgiving and the man
ner Of it's observance are not very
well defined in history. Perhaps the
following paragraph will give as sue
clint an epitome as is possible at this
remote distance:
'The fishermen were ordered to
'scour the seas for SPOIL the hunters
to shoulder their matchlocks and
bring in such game as would allow
the Mayfower colony in more special
manner to rejoice together The re-
suit was supply of wild turkey, deer,
bear and game of every sort in such
abundance as amply to feed the colony
for week. They had as guests the
friendly chief, Massasoit, and 80 of his
Indians. The Indians contributed to
the feast five deer and a great basket
of OYSTERS This was the infEndnctian
of the young colony to its aiherward
favorite shellflsh, and the wemen
cooked them as they best knew how.
The menu of that immortal dinner has
not, alas been preserved, but it is
known that the two dishes most fully
appreciated by the Indians as we'll as
the Americans were the brown roast
turkey and the pumpkin pie The
great feast of the week was outdoors,
for the air was balmy and the sun
bright. Massasoit was there in all the
bravery of scarlet coat trimmed with
lace and a copper chain, given him
some time previous by Edward Wins
low. In strange medley of Indian
garb and a borrowing of European CO.'S
tune, cementing there the bond of
friendship with the white settlers
which held good Al years.
In 1921 Governor Bradford after the
first harvest made provision for the
colonists' rejoicing together with
praise and prayer In 1923 a day of
fasting and prayer in the midst of
drought was turned into thanksgiving
by the coming of rain during the pray
ers; gradually the custom prevailed of
appointing annually a thanksgiving
day after harvest. These appoint
ments were made by the governors
proclamations. During the Revolution
airy war a day Of national thanksgiv-
ing was annually recommended by con-
gress. For many decades the presi-
dent has annually appointed such
day and the governors of the various
states have supplemented the same.
Words are but empty things Since
actions speak louder than words
Thanksgiving is the noblest thanksgiv.
ing. To abound in thanksgiving is a
Scriptural injunction. See that We
do this" said Paul.

Happy THANKSGIVING Custom,

A woman who has an almost old
fashioned faith in Providence keeps
what she calls her thank offering
box" Into this goes through the year,
from one Thanksgiving to the middle
Of the following November, sum of
money for every accident escaped,
calamity averted or special joy.
These offerings are not confined to
her own escapes but each time some
member Of her family hobs up from
some threatened woe into the box goes
the money offering of thanks.
Not the same amount is given each
time, and rarely large sums, for the
woman is not rich, but nice little sum
is realized.
This is devoted to giving some one
a happy Thanksgiving day. 1t does not
always go into regular channels. AS
the woman says-the poor and hos.
pitals are usually well cared for in
holiday seasons.
