CLOSE CHICAGO STOCKYARDS
HOOP AND MOUTH DISEASE

Chicago, Nov. A. Chicago Union
stockyards, the largest cattle mark
ct in the world, which has been in
continuous business since 1865, was
ordered closed tonight for several
days because Of the prevalence of
hoof and mouth disease among the
cattle.
The immediate effect suspension or
der will be to stop shipment of cattle
and hogs to the Chicago market which
amounts almost to 100000 head daily.
This alone, outside of the meat pack
ing industry, amounts to a daily bust
mes of $l,2OO,OOO and affects dis
rectly and indirectly $4,000.
The stock yards, it is Officially
stated, remains closed about ten days.
About $4,000 head of animals now on
hand will keep the packing houses
busy three Of four days, after which
time, according to the president of
the union yards, the entire packing
industry in Chicago will come to a
standstill. In ten days it is planned
the yards will be thoroughly rid of
contagion. The closing of the yards
becomes effective November 9Th, and
will continue until November 10th.

COUNCIL MEETS

regular business was transacted. A
letter from a Minneapolis concern,

receive franchise to furnish the city

that they yer kept out of these
places.
Life preservers were received Tues
day and will be put in place along
the river for service.
The report of the treasurer was

the treasurer of $173.28 and by war
rants $2,663.56. Cash on hand No.

resulted in Il saving Of $3.50 for every
100 pounds Of butter and 20 cents for
every 100 pounds Of milk obtained
from the herd. In Nebraska 2.41
pounds Of beef were produced daily on
a full ration Of corn and alfalfa as
against only 1.4S pounds on a ration
of corn and prairie hay.
In popular practice alfalfa hay has
been found so satisfactory that ap-
proximately four-ffths Of the country's
crop is consumed in this way. There
are however, other uses to which it
may be put. Notable among these Is
its value as a soiling crop. After each
cutting it new it's growth with great
readiness, and there is practically none
of the danger from bloat which makes
it somewhat Instantaneous as pas
ture for cattle and sheep. Hogs, on
the other hand, are more apt to injure
the stand than to be injured by 1t.
AS ensilage alfalfa is perhaps not as
satisfactory as in other respects. 1t Is
apt to be Shiny, and the percentage Of
loss from spelling is frequently appre-
ciable. The readiness, however, with
which the hay may be cured and uti-
liked renders the making of alfalfa into
silage ordinarily unnecessary. On the
other hand, within recent years alfalfa
meal has gained considerable popular
ity. This meal is ground up either
alone or mixed with other concentrates,
such as molasses, bran and corn chop.
1t can be fed with less waste than the
hay. and the cost of transportation Is.
of course, very considerably dimin.
ished when shipments for large dis.
tances are necessary. Since a pound Of
alfalfa hay contains NJ more nutri.
ment, however, after 1t has been
ground up into meal than it did before,
there does not seem to be any particu.
lar advantage in the process when the
crop is intended for home consumption.
Among the minor uses for this very
useful crop may be mentioned feed for
all kinds of poultry. Alfalfa meal fed
in a mash as a part Of the daily ration
tends to keep up egg production dur
ing the winter. and in the summer
cline it may be cut green and fed to
the chickens, or they can be allowed
the range of an alfalfa field. The crop
is also Of service in connection with
the honey industry. The number of
times that the alfalfa field comes into
blossom in one season makes it pos
sible for bees to gather successive
crops Of honey, and statistics indicate
that heavier yields of honey are Sc
cured in those sections which have the
largest acreage of alfalfa.

BIG TIME AT

A big jubilee was held at Manning
on Tuesday night to celebrate the re-
tanning Of the county seat. The
Fowler stage left the city late in the
afternoon with a six piece orchestra
which furnished the music. Such a
large crowd gathered for the dance
that the men were divided into two
groups, the reds and blues. Only
one group could appear on the floor
during a dance, thus each group al
ternated dances. Not until about 3
o'clock in the morning had the crowd
lessened so that all could dance at the
same time. Refreshments and enter
tainment were free, and the Man
ming supporters proved themselves
royal hosts.

COWS---MORE PROFIT
Careful Selection and Breeding I'm.
proves the Herd.

Careful Selection and Breeding Inn
proves the Herd.
The farmer who wishes to reap 3
large profitable harvest of grain sows
pure seed. He does not use all of the
seed, even though it be pure. He
makes as good a selection as he can
find of the seed that is of a pure
strain, good type and free from dis.
ease. He next Sits and culls until
the best is secured before he expects
to plant, reap and increase his yield.
The man who picks his best cows
from year to year will be improving his
herd and raising the standards as the
years go by. The thing that counts
is for every cow in the herd to give
more than she takes. To do this the
cow has to have the ability to con-
vert her food into milk-a tendency
that is developed in cows only
through long years of careful selec-
ton and breeding.
The best authorities on breeding
agree that by crossing the common
COWS with a dairy sire it will improve
the production Of the offspring to the
extent of about fifty pounds of but
terfat per year. With such results 1t
will take only a few years to build
up a profitable herd. If the output of
butterfat on ten ows be increased
fifty pounds each per year it will
mean a total of 500 pounds and at 30
cents will be an increase in returns
of $3.50 without considering the value
Of the increase in production Of milk
and the added value of the COWS.
Fewer COWS with a higher produc-
ton, less work and greater profits, Is
a good rule for the farmer with COWS
to adopt.-G. L. Martin, Professor of
Dairying, North Dakota Agricultural
| College.

PROTECT COWS FROM colo

Should Have Shelter at Night During
Late Fall.
During this time of the year cows
are often unnecessarily exposed to
cold weather. This is especially true
during the nights of late fall and early
winter. It is a very easy matter to
cause a whole herd Of cows to lose all
Of the flesh and vitality put on dur
ing the summer in just q few nights.
It is a mistake to let cows and young
stock lose in weight so early in the
fall. There will be a considerable part
Of the winter during whichsit is diff
cult to protect them.
The writer does not mean that cows
necessarily should be closed up in a
stuffy barn over night. They. how.
ever, should have shelter, or at least
protection from the cold northwest
wind. a shed having provisions for
holding feed is ample.-Professor G.
Larsen, South Dakota State College.

Now for the windlass get a round

correspond strictly to the beet type.
Much can be determined by the kind
of head the steer possesses. 1t should
be short and compact with large muz-
zle. If this is the case the body will
develop likewise.
While we like to see a fine bone in
the finished animal, often the medium
to coarse boned steer, because of
more vigor and constitution, will make
enough greater gains to Offset the
higher price the better type n will
bring in the market by virtue Of this
greater quality.
One of the best evidences of a good
feeder outside of form is the condi-
ton OF his hair and skin. Good soft
hair and skin with a mellowness be-
meath is invariably associated with a
steer that will make good gains and
place his flesh we'll.
Uniformity of color and breeding al
ways adds value to a bunch Of stock
ers and feeders, and the greater the
breeds in a feeder the more apt he is
to conform to the desired type.

VEAL CALVES-The merit of a veal
calf is based upon age, condition and
weight. Age and flesh are the most
important considerations. The breed
of the calf makes no difference as to
his value, for the reason that it is
often difficult to distinguish the breed
they represent.
An eight weeks calf weighing from
40 to 100 pounds, with faultless finish,
represents the proper qualifications
for q good veal calf.

fered some resistance and called for
help. He was not relieved of any
money but was dealt a number of
blows before the robbers departed. A

this and it is thought that the Williams

PASTURlN0

Alfalfa needs no special treat
ment to aid it in coming through
the winter in a healthy, vigorous
condition, provided the stubble
is not pastured off down to the
crowns.
Never should alfalfa be pas
tured down close late in the fail,
says G. e. Thompson, assistant
In farm crops ut the Kansas
Agricultural college. That leaves
1t so exposed that the hard
freezes Of winter will injure the
stand. If not Kill it out entirely.
Late faI! moving ordinarily does
