Post But in Alaska, which is looked
upon as the coolest country on earth,

there is an island where frost has
never been heard Of. This is Middle

of islands close to the Japan current.
There the temperature is always mild.
Twenty miles away on the other side
of the islands, it is nearly always
freezing-in fact, is a country of such
varied climate that almost anything

SEVERAL DANGERS
IN BREEDING EWES
Lamb That Is Bred in First Year
Will Remain Stunted-Muctl
Food Is Wasted.

1t is natural that lamb should put
in its first year in growing, both in
height and breadth as we'll as in vol
tribute to this end. When the lamb
is bred, much of the nourishment in
tended for itself must go toward the
nourishment of the foetus. For that
reason the development of the mother
is retarded, and, in fact, is never
again resumed to anything like the
degree first seen.
A lamb that is bred in the first
year will remain stunted. Even it's
wool will fail to make anything like
normal growth. The first years wool
crop is usually counted on to be the
largest, but it is little to boast of if
the lamb is bred Like tissue, wool
requires feed to promote it's growth,
and when the feed has to be used for
other purposes the wool does not
grow.
1t may be argued that heavier feed
ing of the lamb would overcome these
objections, says New York Farmer,
but as a matter of fact there is max
imum amount of feed that the not
yet fully developed digestive system
of the lamb cannot handle, and be-
yond this amount the food is voided
from the body in an unassimilated
state, without doing the lamb any
good. Rather will it exhaust the ener-
gies of the lamb still further to han
die this mass of food from which it
cannot derive any benefit.
II an unusually fine lamb resulted
from the breeding of young ewe
then there might be some reason for
sacrificing the growthiness of the
mother; but as matter Of fact, quite
the opposite condition holds true in
! the majority Of cases. An immature
eve seldom produces sturdy lamb
Her offspring is usually lacking both
| in size and vigor and seldom proves
! to be a growthy. prolific animal.
The reasons for this are obvious:

Cattle raising for beef in Argentina.
especially in the temperate zone, is a
much more favored industry than in
the United States The climate makes
1t possible for the entire life Of cat
tie to be spent out of doors without
shelter and generally without shade
of any kind. Alfalfa grows most lux
uriantly, and the suitability of very
large acreage for the growth Of that
crop and Of other nutritious indig.
enous and introduced legumes and
grasses, together with cheap land and
labor, makes it possible to produce
beef cheaply. To any one unacquaint-
ed with the possibilities of the coun-
try, the degree of fairness which the
cattle acquire on grass or alfalfa
alone is marvel. Corn feeding as a
supplement to pasture for beef pro-
duction is extremely rare. Beef-mak-
ing in Argentina at present there
fore is practically a strict pasture
proposition.
There is quite an extensive area
we'll suited to, and at present partial
ly used for, the growing of corn, but
as yet, and probably for some years
to come, this product will be either
exported or used for horse, dairy COW,
and pig feeding. Only the flint varie-
ties are grown generally. It is evil
dent that the natural advantages Of
Argentina enable her cattle products
profitably to compete as they are
already doing. with the grass cattle
and lower grades Of native beef pro-
duced in this country. North Amer
lean corn-fed beef, so long as the sup
ply lasts, doubtless will continue to
command a premium over Argentina
grass cattle in the market of the
world. Although Argentina eventual
ly may develop the production of
corn-fed cattle which her soil and
climate render quite possible, it is
probable that the domestic demand
In the United States by that time will

First, the lack Of competent develop
ment of the mother and the some
what imperfect functioning of her va
rious organs; and, secondly, the ex-
istence of such conditions of affairs
that the food which should go to the
nourishment of the foetus must be
utilized in part for the upbuilding and
growth of the mother.
A flock in which practice of
breeding young ewes is made deteri-
crates rapidly, and in a short time
understood, weakly and ungrowthy
sheep will be found in 1t. The man
who desires to maintain size and
growth in his sheep, to keep up high
wool yield and to improve his flock in
general should not yield to the some
times great temptation to breed his
young eve lambs.

Unnamed Heroine.

The anniversary is responsible for

absorb, and indeed already absorbs,
practically the entire amount of beet
produced here, thus rendering our ex-
port trade. and consequently foreign
competition abroad, an unimportant
factor in the industry. The chief con-
try should be not what effect will
South American competition have
upon our export trade, but what ef-
feet will the possible importation of
South American beef to the United
States have upon the production of
beef cattle here.
That corn, and likewise corn-fed
cattle, can be produced in Argentina,
Uruguay, and some other South Amer
lean countries is an assured fact. The
extent to which it will be fed to cat
tie, however, is limited by the rela-
lively small production of corn and
further by the fact that it is a new
industry and will not gain favor rap-
idly because it involves more crop
ping and labor and considerably more
expense.
1t is significant that the expansion
of cattle raising in Argentina has
ceased and largely because grain
growing is proving more profitable
than cattle raising. The beef product
will be much improved but the supply
available for export doubtless will not
increase more rapidly than the com
bined factors of increased population
there and among nations consuming
her surplus, and the relative decrease
Of beef production elsewhere. South
American beef surplus will be in
strong demand obviously countries
willing to pay the highest premium
for it will secure it. Again, the cost
of production is sure to increase with
increased cost of labor and land.
Under such conditions 1t is not antici.
pated that the business Of raising
beef cattle in the United States will
be menaced permanently by Argen-
tine.
