Ut suggestions. as well as aNuounc-

marked change in the institute work
of the state in recent years, but the
change is not so much in the plan
as in the manner Of doing the work
Better preparation and keener inter

are local in a sense, they are much

This larger sense, tl-ey are the mag

Organization

One Of the chief virtues of the live
stock system on the farm is that it fits
almost any scheme of organization.
We talk much of diversified farming.
and yet it is not diversity for diversi-
ties sake that we want. We all admit
that the principle of diversion of labor
IS applicable in agriculture as else
where. 1t follows that a chief inter
est, be it alfalfa production, or wheat
raising, or beef production or potatoes
or whatsoever, is not only admissible,
but desirable. Having the thing of
chief Importance, and the industry of
second degree, the rest are fitted into
a perfect whole. Chief products and
byproducts and system of marketing
are all fitted together. Into any and
every system of farming livestock fits.
1t may be principle. 1t may be. sub
ORNATE, but it may be made to fit.
Those orchard patches in our valleys
may well be made to exemplify the vital
Importance of animal husbandry. Even
il your draft animals are confined to
one old mare, you may raise a colt,
which, when mature, may weigh ton,
and boost the family purse. Pigs may
produce the family meat and more. A
COW or two may yield a veal or two
besides the milk and butter for the
family, and more. Even when there is
not half acre of pasture, soiling crops
intensely produced may support the an
imals. 1t is not great estates with great
herds of horses and cattle to which we
may look as the source of supply, but
the small place with few head of an
imals.

BY Products

With the best breeding and the best
care and feeding, the price Of the prin-
cipal product well marketed may do
little more than return the labor and
capital invested with reasonable in
terest and no profit. The development
of manufacture everywhere has been
the history of the utilizing of the by
products. In no industry is this more
vital than in agriculture; and that part
of agriculture we call animal hus-
bandry is no exception to the rule. The
livestock itself may be by product,
or may be kept chiefly for utilizing
what otherwise would be waste. But in
the products Of the live stock we find
one of the most important considera-
tions of the system. | need hardly say
that the chief by product is manure.
Cropping in the cereals, hay, fruit, and
what not, with the sale and removal
from the soil, can have but one end
the impoverishment of the soil. The
feeding of the entire animal product,
whether Of pasturage or OF cultivated
crops. and the return of the same to
the soil by wise animal husbandry will
maintain and increase the fertility.
Every people must come to this system
or the soil will perish. Italy, France,
Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1913-03-07

Germany, Holland, England, and other
countries with increasing population,
have been able to maintain and increase
the productivity of their soils. We
have been a nation of MASTERS and have
impoverished and destroyed in a few
years the riches that nature had pro-
duced in long ages. Our densest popu-
lation and greatest civilization may yet
be found in the delta of the Mississippi,
where we may attempt to follow up
and reclaim part of the soil sent down
the stream to that low and malarial
land
No greater fraud has been perpetrat-
ed on the people of any part of the
United States than the conservation
fraud as applied and yet to be applied
to the Pacific Northwest Yet begin
ming in an awakening consciousness
that we are a nation of MASTERS as well
as a nation of spenders, and a desire
to atone for our sins, the movement at
least gave us word, a popular word,
Conservation, and this suggests that
one of the chief merits of livestock on
the farm is the conservation Of time
which it makes possible. The largest
source of income to the small farmer
is the income of his labor and that of
his family One hundred and sixty
acres of good land may be reckoned at
$4,000 Interest may be reckoned at
six per cent. If the farm is all paid
for and not under mortgage, the inter-
$3.50 The interest on the work stock
and tools might increase this, say to
5000; the rest must be the returns from
labor. AT $500 per day for 300 days,
leaving out holidays there would be
another 5000. This would give $1,000
year for the support and education of
the family and increase in wealth.
Most of this would, of course, not APP
pear in cash or be able to be measured,
but would appear in the living of the
family, leaving a small money surplus
perhaps, out most OF the increase IN
the property on the place 1t is clear
ly vital, therefore, that a full oppor-
tunity for productive labor be open,
for it is only favored few who do not
have the charges of the mortgage or
similar burden to bear. Now it is
equally clear that the livestock in
dustry alone opens up this opportunity.
Wheat farming offers on the average
not more than 100 days out of the 800
for productive labor. Other single
crop systems have similar drawbacks
They also make sharp demands for a
larger supply Of labor than that of the
family at critical periods and this calls
for outgo instead of income That the
family's own productive labor may be
spread out over as many days Of the
year as the merchants or the bookkeep-
er's or the railway agent s is the con-
sideration.

LIVESTOCK ON THE FARM


as we have IN mining Feed weighing

meat or wool, or butter or cheese.
weighing relatively small amount.
FROM another point of view. it is the
process of manufacture-the convert
ing INTO a valuable finished product the
rough, coarse material products of the
farm. Here great skill is needed first.
10 get large product out of the soil
9t the lowest cost; second, to avoid
the natural growth of the land to 90
to waste; third, to feed in such com
olnatlon and such variety as to get
the maximum result; fourth, to avoid
losing what has been gained.
The last point is the one wherein we
are the chief sinners.
Hogs are typical. The hog is all APP
petite. If he is healthy he will eat
three square meals day, or more, for
800 days in the year and grunt for
more. That is the hogs greatest
virtue. And it turns its feed to good
account too, for it has a mighty good
digestion. The hog is not very par
1t tastes good, and nearly every thing
tastes good to a hog-grain, alfalfa,
clover, weeds, and Stops 1t is a car
Diverous, herbiverous, and omniverous
animal. Yet it requires more care in
feeding than does the horse the COW,
or the sheep. 1t gains quickly from
feed, and loses just as quickly through
the lack of feed TO do it rightly, you
should SO adjust its feed that it gains
uniformly every day from the cradle
to the block. | know how sweet they
say the Arkansas razor back is, but
with you it is question of profit and
loss and you can not afford to raise the
razor back. Use the pig as a scav-
enger if you will, but supplement It's
net gains there with enough to give net
gains in its weight and in the weight
Of your pocketbook. Hog off wheat,
peas or corn, if you can do so profit
ably but do not let a day go by when
good gain has not been made
In the case of the lamb, the calf, and
the colt, up to the market age, the
same principal applies, but in differ
cnt way. With any sort of provision,
the summer, we'll begun, carry them
forward on the natural supply and
with little labor until winter begins to
change and limit the supply of avail
able food. In too many cases the ami
NAL is carried through it's first and sec
end winter on the range system The
stubble field and the straw stack do
their best to protect and sustain life
till the fields are green again. No
growth, no progress, only holding on
and a slipping backwards, day by day,
longing for the chinooks to blow and
the buds and grass to appear again
Animals eat to supply heat, just as the
stove eats wood. Before life processes
result in growth the heat supply must
be kept up. Barns, then, good warm
ones, we'll ventilated, sanitary, are the
cheapest investments in livestock pro-
Guction that the farmer ever makes
Economy of space, Of feeding arrange
ments, of storage, is high economy. The
same food stored in barns and silos
yields more than unstored in open
fields.
