EXPERTS Advise Cattle Experts.

AS q lCSulI III - dpPlO "
the general assembly, the fight on the
cattle tick in South Carolina is to be-
gin at an early date. During the seven
area of 1913, 1902 square miles has been
ment of agriculture has been cam
~paigning against the tick fever, which
annually kills more cattle in the South
than all other diseases combined, an
arear of 1913, S02 square miles has been
freed from the tick. Details Of this
work against a disease that is estimat-
ed to cost the American farmers $40,-
000, 900 a year are printed in a new
circular of the department of agricul-
ture entitled, Effects Of Tick Eradi-
cation on the Cattle Industry Of the
South"
Now comes the question, What plan
is best for farmers in these redeemed
areas to improve their stock? The
following are some OF the depart
ment's suggestions in brief:
Carpeting Pastures:
!. Get Bermuda or carpet grass
started on all pastures. Improve the
pastures further by sowing some les
pedeza and bur clover on the uplands
and some aisike clover, white clover
and paspalum .dilatatum on the bot
tom lands.
Q. Grow more hay and other forage
on which to winter the stock; or, if
a farmer has as many as so or rs
cattle, erect a silo.
8. Bring in good bulls Of the beef
breeds to use for grading up the ma
tive cattle. Do not try to raise pure
breds to begin with. -
4. If not able to buy a, bull for in
dividual use, form a bull club and let
each member buy stock in the bull
and place him on some central farm;
or let one mar buy the bull and the
others obligate themselves to breed
their cow to that bull.
5. Form a community club or a
county live stock association so that
members may exchange bulls every
two years in order to get the maxi
mum service from a bull without
breeding him to his offspring. The
members Of a club should agree on
what breed they want to use and all
get bulls of the same breed in order
that the community may develop a
trade and make a reputation as grow
ers of this breed.
s. If the bull is young, do not let
him run with the cows, but keep him
in . separate pasture and give him
'oTe feed each day so as to keep him
growing.
T.. Do not let a young bull serve a
cow but once. One service is often
better than a half dozen.
8. Heifers of the beef breeds should
not drop calves until they are at least
80 months of age and should be bred
accordingly.
9. Breed the cows so as to calYe
during February, March and April.
The natural sequence of the forma-
ton of community clubs for breed
ing and raising cattle will be the CO.
operative shipping to such markets
as show the greatest demand for the
class Of cattle to be sold. In counties
where the farmers are largely rails
ing n breed of cattle it is not hard
to induce buyers to come, provided
there is considerable stock for sale.
One county might make a specially Of
raising cattle for stocker and feeder
purposes, while another might finish
the cattle in the feed lots if conditions
for this are favorable. The quality Of
cattle should improve constantly, and
if 1t does the prices paid for them will
also increase.

result was that Of great blessing to
the people and joy in the heart OF
Zaccheus. az He was obedient, Joy
ously and promptly. The genuineness
of his transformation was evidenced
by the way it affected his pocketbook.
He made abundant restitution and
gave beautifully to the poor. The

PLAN TO ABOLISH DEATH
PENALTY HAS LOST OUT

PORTLAND. Nov. 0.-Returns on
the amendment to prohibit the exc
cution of the death penalty in Ore
gon fell below the line Of safety Sun
day and the final defeat of the meas
ure is now practically assured. Lake
county, whose figures were not in
cluded in the computations yesterday,
has given negative majority against
the bill of probably more than 500
votes, The result in that county as
estimated by the Lakeview Examin-
er on the basis of the incomplete
vote, is given in a telegram to The
oregonian as s66 no and SIS yes.
In addition complete returns were
received from Douglas county. which
was represented in the figures yester-
DAY by an incomplete count. This
added several hundred more to the
negative majority. although the early
returns had indicated that the am
endment had broken nearly even in
that county.
Official returns from Tillamook
county also made a slight change in
the totals.
The majority as II now stands
against the bill is 1867. These fig
ures are practically complete from
all counties in the state except NAL
heur and Grant. from which no re-
turns on this measure have been re-
ceived, .-,,
II is not impossible that these two
counties will overturn the apparent
majority against the bill. but 1t is un-
likely. In the two counties there are
1883 registered voters. but Il is not
probable that more than 5000 votes
were cast Telegraphic requests to the
county clerks at Vale and Canyon
City dispatched by the Oregonian yes.
terday for figures on the amendment
failed to elicit a response, II may be
that the fate OF the measure will not
be known absolutely until the state
vote is officially canvassed.
