NEVADA COUNTY FARM FRS UNION COLUMN
::''':'':'':' By J. M. Thomas :':' MAINTAINING DUAL-PURPOSE
 QUALITIES

The dual quality cannot be proper ly maintained in animals that are not regularly milked from year to year and from generation to generation. Those who allow their calves to suck
 the cows have no right to the claim
 that they have dual animals in their herds. Such animals cannot be pro- duced in that way. When, therefore, the breeders of Shorthorns and Red Polls, who do not hand-milk their COWS, sell the leaner ones with the claim
 that the leanness is the outcome of the dual quality, they are so far de ceiving the buyer. The leaner ami mals in such herds are usually the in- ferior ones, and those who buy them
 with the idea that they will prove high-class as dual animals will be badly disappointed. True dual-pur- pose cattle are those that have been bred from generation to generation for the combined purpose of producing milk and meat. The sires used in such herds must not only inherit and possess good feshing qualities, but they must be the progeny of good milking dams and grandams. It will not suffice to choose beef sires pro miscuously. The difficulty in finding dual sires is one of the greatest ob- stacles in the way of breeding dual purpose cattle. The true dual herd must be hand -milked. In no other way

Do you feel tired, have you a sallow complexion, constipation, headache, bad breath, sleeplessness or cidcles around your eyes? If so, you are un- doubtedly suffering from some liver complaint.
 Perhaps you don't feel very badly now, but delay is dangerous. To al low your liver to continue out of order is to invite a serious chronic illness.
 Whenever you have the slightest symptoms of liver trouble, stop it inn mediately. You can do it harmlessly and mildly by taking Liv-Ver-Lax, the natural vegetable compound that is replacng calomel everywhere. It has all the effectiveness, not the eff feet of calomel. Insist on getting the original Liv-Ver-Lax, bearing the like ness and signature of L. K. Grigsby, which is guaranteed to give satisfac- tion or money refunded. For sale by Hesterly Drug Store.

can sufficiently free and prolonged milking qualities be maintained.
 The dual idea in cattle has also been greatly harmed by the tendency on the part of those who opposed the idea to class all mongrel cows indis- criminately as dual-purpose. Such a classification shows conclusively that the men who made it had not a correct conception of what dual-pur- pose cattle are. They confounded the idea with that of aimless and unscien- tifc breeding. Because the average production in a state was low they at tributed the fact to the extent to which dual cattle were kept on the farms. Thus, for instance, in the great dairy state of Minnesota, where the average milk yield per COW is only 4,000 lbs. per year, the low average thus pro- duced has been attributed to the ex- tent to which the dual COW prevails in the state.
 The facts are that there are only a few herds of dual-purpose cattle in the state bred on proper lines. The bulk of cattle are mongrels. There are among them cows that would fur nish material from which to build high h-grade herds possessed of good dual qualities, but time will be called for to accomplish such building.- Thomas Shaw, Ramsey Co.,, Minn., in Breeders Gazette.

HEAVY EXPORTS OF COTTON AND GRAIN TO EUROPE.
(From Manufacturers Record)


 Tn view of the published statements 4o inc effect that it is impossible to cot ships to carry our cotton and arain abroad, it is interesting to note tho+ for the week ending January s th;s wear the exports of raw cotton ag orecated 343,613 bales, as compared with 227,965 bales for the cores nonding week of last year, and that for the week ending January 2, the lost week for which full statistics of o11 orain are available, the total eX- rorts were 8, 641, 70S bushels, com pared win 1, 57O,4O5 for the cores nonding week of 1914, showing that during that week the export of grain from this country were almost double the amount of the corresponding week of last year. For the same week of this year the exports of flour aggregate 29S.6O1 barrels, against 177,239 bar rels for the corresponding week of last year.
 The exports of wheat and corn for the week ending January 9 were Ill., O47.25O bushels as compared with G. 46S.00O bushels for the corresponding week of 1914, showing steadily in- creasrg gain in the volume of grain shipments
 These statistics indicate how the ex- ports of cotton and grain at present are running far ahead of the same time last year, and are indicative of the availability of ships to take care of our foreign trade and of the heavy demand in Europe for grain, flour and cotton.
 It is true that the rates of freight are high but the price which is now being paid to he farmer for grain is also so high that some Congressman are even beginning to discuss the question of putting an embargo on grain shipments-a wholly uneconom- ical proposition.
 Owing to the fact that but little cotton was exported early in the sea- son, foreign shipments to September 1 were only about one-half as large during the same period in 1913-14.
 The enormous exports of wheat, which last week exceeded 10,000,000 bushels, show the urgency of Europe's effort to secure an ample supply. These heavy shipments at the prices prevailing will add largely to the prosperity of grain growers, though they will also add to the cost of living in this country.
 The high price of wheat and flour emphasizes the necessity for the South to plant as largely as possible of 1oodstutfs and feedstuffs. 1t should prepare to double it's corn crop, while decreasing it's cotton crop. It must also give immediate attention to in creaslng it's production of hogs and cattle and garden stuff, or else it will pay heavy penalty for it's failure to do so by having to pay exorbitant pnces for all Of it's food supplies.
