question which was put to Profes-
soF G. ". Barnes, farm advisor on
live stock Of the Agricultural Exten-
sion Service of the University Of

answered that fat cattle between the
ages Of one and two years, weighing
between eight and eleven hundred
pounds, are used.
They must be well bred and Of fine
quality. Such cattle can be finished
quicker and are the only class Of
cattle which can be used in the pro-
duction Of baby beef. The cattle TO
be used for this purpose should not be
allowed TO lose their baby flesh or
baby fat. They must be kept f1eshy
from start to finish, for when they
once become run down, it is a difficult
proposition to have them finished for

New York, April 23.-Two hundred
million dollars is what this country
will receive from the European bel

$21, 785, 976. January's exports of
these supplies were $40, $50 and
