Live Stock Fair at Chicago.

At the close of the world war now
in progress in Europe, the live stock
business of the United States will face
its greatest era of prosperity. The
reason for this is evident, for before
agricultural activities can be renewed
on the devasted farms of ridden
Europe, those farms must be restored
with horses and all kinds of breeding
stock, which the ravages of the war
have so materially reduced in num-
bers.
Where will Europe go to supply this
demand for horses, cattle, swine and
sheep? Who can supply these units
80 necessary for profitable agricul'
ture? America, and America only
And, to meet this demand for breed
ing stock, it behooves the American
live stock farmer to begin at once his
preparations to have his stock il
shape to stand inspection of foreign
buyers who will scour this country
when Europe lays aside the sword tt
take hold of the plow handles once
more.
Duriug the first week Of December,
there will be held at Chicago, Illinois
the largest exhibition of horses, cattle
swine, and sheep in this country, and
possibly the largest in the whole
world. 1t is the International Live
Stock Exposition, where more thar
450O pure-b bred fat animals, foremos
represeuta of all the well known
breeds of horses, cattle, swine anC
sheep, will face the judges in competi
ton for fortune in prizes. Glasses
of individuals, herds, and carload lots
will be shown, and champions anc
grand champions chosen.
What is the meaning of this great
gathering of domestic animalsz-thi'
aristocracy of the animal world m
to exhibit before the eyes of tS dt
lie the choicest product of Ma re
breeding, to bring forth the lw "
pieces of men who have made
breeding their life. work.
What does it do for the fortunate
visitor and spectator? If he has a
breeders love for animals, it cannot
fail to awaken in him desire to i'm
prove his work. The sight of these
excellent individuals is enough to in
spire anyone with desire to produce
even better ones.
Even for one who is nat Crtu9lly q
breeder of live stock, the Internation-
al is we'll worth visiting 1t affords
an opportunity to get away from
home, see some of the world outside,
and become acquainted with your dis.
tant neighbors. See what the other
fellow is doing to make better world,
land incidentally pick up some point
ers on animal breeding, which are
bound to be circulating where so many
experts are gathered. Take your
wife, daughters and sons along, make
it vacation trip for the whole family,
for you will find entertainment for
all at this show.
Reduced railroad fare will be in ef-
feet from all points to Chicago, which
affords everyone an opportunity to
see the big city on the lake as well as
this greatest of live stock exhibits at
reduced expense. Ask your Local
agents concerning these rates.

POOR LOCATION OF
TREES ON PASTURE
Plants Should Always Be Set on
Higher Portions of Field
Much Manure Lost.

From the United States Department OF
Agriculture.)
Perhaps one of the greatest sources
of loss of fertility from pasture soils
results from the poor location Of shade
trees and brush, according to tho au.
thor of the "Grazing Industry Of the
Bluegrass Region" bulletin recently
published by the department. Trees
and brush, he states, should always be
set on the higher portion Of the field
and not along the banks of running
streams, as so often is the case. With
good grass, the animals do net Craze
more than one-third Of the time; the
rest of the time is spent lying down OF
standing in the shade fighting flies.
Hence much of the manure that is
made does not get back directly on the
land that produced the grass. If the
manure produced while the animals are
not grazing is deposited on the tops OF
the hills, it's beneficial effects on the
grass may be noted for several rods
down the hillsides. 1t is easy to be
heve that if one-half to two-thirds OF
the manure is lost from pasture fields
and none is added, the crops must
gradually deteriorate.

There is each spring a scarcity of
good seed corn. This condition is all
the more regrettable, because it need
not exist; and it is rnuch more serious
than commonly supposed, because
many do not realiz7 fully the tremen-
dous loss to themselves and the coun-
try due to planting inferior seed. A
full stand of plants may be obtained
from inferior seed, but the yield will
not be the best possible. The loss is
due to delay or negligence. 1t can be
prevented by the selection of seed corn
in the autumn.
Seed corn that comes up but pro-
Guces an improbable crop is worth
less than seed that will not grow at
Gil, because a greater amount of labor
and the use of the land are lost. The
seed corn that produces the best crop
Is the cheapest. A bushel Of seed
corn will plant SIX acres. Seed that
gives an 1S-bushel increase per acre is
worth 500 to $40 more per bushel
Careful breeders of productive strains
of corn are needed in every commu-
nifty, and growers who do not care to
grow special seed patch and select
their seed with care should buy the
best seed obtainable. Do aot begrudge
your neighhor So bushel for properly
selected and dried seed of variety
which has made good in the neighbor-
hood, but refrain from paying a
stranger $5 an ear for seed said to pro-
duce 400 bushels to the acre.
To be first class, seed must be:
~ Well adapted to the seasonal
and soil conditions where it is to be
| planted.
(2) Grown on productive plants OF

GIVE INVENTIONS TO PUBLIC
Uncle Sans Scientists Gain No Per-
sonaI Profits From the Results
of Their investigations.

Uncle Sans experts are always
busy trying to invent some new way
of doing an old thing and doing it
better than it was done before. These
experts gain no personal profits how
ever. valuable their discoveries may
be, for the results of their work are
given to the public.
Twenty-nine valuable inventions and
discoveries were made by the scien-
lists of the department of agriculture
alone during the last fiscal year and
all were dedicated to the public.
In accordance with the policy of the
department, its workers, when they
discover valuable processes or devices,
obtain what is popularity known as a
public-service patent, the chief pur-
pose of which is to prevent anyone
else from patenting the invention. This
Insures to the public the free use of
these processes and the investigational
work of the department.
