SHR|NAGE Of WEIGHT OF BEEF CATTLE IN TRANSIT

The shrinkage or loss in weight of beef cattle in the course oi shipment from western farms and ranches to the markets has been made subject of special study by The Department of Agriculture, and what is believed to be the first authentic information on this sub- ject has been compiled and pub lished as Bulletin 25. The inves- tigation covered three years in various cattle-raising sections of the West. The cattle were weighed at the point of loading, on arrival at their destination, and again after having rest, feed, and water. The weight was also taken when the animals were sold. The records include the weighing of Texas and Northwes tern range cattle and calves, and of cornfed, silage-fed, and beet-pulp-fed cattle. In all, 265 shipments were weighed comprising over Io,ooo cattle.
 All cattlemen know that when their stock arrive at market they are usually lighter in weight than when they started. This loss in weight is called shrinkage. It is due to excretions from the alimen- tary canal and from the urinary organs, and to moisture, given off by the lungs in breathing. A portion of this loss may be re- gained at. the market by the food and water taken into the system. This is termed the fill"
 The shrinkage of cattle Tn tram sit is such a variable factor that no one can say definitely how much it will be during a journey but by the use of very large num- bers of cattle an average shrinkage will be obtained which may be used as basis for estimating the amount of shrinkage on cattle shipped under similar conditions.
 The net shrinkage (that is, the difference between the weight at the point of origin and the weight of the animals when sold at the market after taking the "fillD was found in the departments investi- gations to range all the way from I5 to 75 pounds per head, or from 2.r4 to 7 per cent, depending upon the length of time and other conditions. The time that the cattle were in transit varied from less than "A hours to more than 72 hours. The normal shrinkage may be regarded as from 3 to 6 per cent of live weight
 The extent of the shrinkage de- pends upon various factors, among which are the conditions at the time of shipping and the treatment during the drive to the loading pens; the length of time the cattle were held without feed and water before being loaded; the nature of the fill before loading-the greater losses occurring when this consisted of succulent grass, beet DulD. or silape. the weather and

climatic conditions at the time of loading. while in transit, and at the market; the character of the run to market, greater shrinkage naturally being caused by slow, rough runs; the time of arrival at market.
 The shrinkage during the first 24 hours is greater proportionately than for any succeeding period of the same duration.
 The difference between the shrinkage of COWS and steers is not as great as is ordinarily sup posed. Steers will usually shrink somewhat less than COWS of the same weight.
 The shrinkage of range cattle in transit over 70 hours during a normal year is from 5 to 6 per cent of their live weight. If they are in transit 36 hours or less the shrinkage will range from 3 to 4 per cent of their live weight.
 The shrinkage of fed cattle does not differ greatly from that of range cattle for equal periods of time. Cattle fed on silage have a large gross shrinkage, but usually fill so we'll at market that the net shrinkage is small. Pulp-fed cattle shrink more in transit than any other class of cattle, and also show a greater net shrinkage.
 For long journey the common method of unloading for feed, water, and rest is to be preferred to the use of "feed and water" cars.
 Cattle should be weighed before being loaded wherever practicable, since comparison of this weight with the sale weight will show the net shrinkake. Moreover, this weight at point of origin may be of material benefit to the shipper in case of wreck or a very poor run to market.
 There is no way of entirely pre- venting shrinkage in the shipment of cattle, but by iudicious care in handling and feeding the cattle just previous to shipping the shrinkage .may be lessened. If cattle are to be in transit for 24 hours or longer, it is a good plan Ito feed about two bales of nice bright hay for each carload few hours before loading.
 When care is used in trailing the cattle to the loading pens, not driving them too fast nor too far in a day and giving them five or six hours day to graze on the way, long distances may be cov- cred with no apparent injury to the cattle. On arrival at the pens lit is we'll to give the animals a light feed ot hay with a little water or allow them to graze a short time before loading, them, unless the grass is very luxuriant. An excessive fill of water or green fodder or grass just before loading is not good for cattle, as it may cause them to SCOUT in transit; then, too, they will not stand up ! as we'll in the cars.

the boys revelations were of such a

was made to witness the most terrible

An American artist friend of Earle,
who Is living in Paris, received a letter
from Earle the other day in which he
said that his chief motive in trying to
keep Harold in his possession was to in
sure that the lad would be educated ac-
cording to American, rather than
French, ideas. and that when he ar
rived at mans estate he would retain
his right to American citizenship. TT
is my insistehce upon this point said
Earle, that has incurred for me the

he will be able to choose between French
