lore ATTENTION PAID
TO BEEF CATTLE

Louisiana farmers are giving more
ttention now to beef cattle than ever
,efore, according to DR.. G. E. NeSom'
,uperintendent of live stock extension
ervice, L. s. U. This is evidenced
" the fact that during the month OF
august 264,OOO head of cattle were
tipped in the twelve parishes where
ick eradication is in progress
This indicates that there are at least
I million head Of cattle in the state
f Louisiana The great bulk OF
hese are common scrub cattle, many
1erds of which are being graded up
" the use of pure-bred bulls. Last
year most of the cattle produced Tor
ale were sold directly off the pastures
md ranges, and went to other states
TO be grazed and fed for the markets
Ehe average quality of these cattle was
ow, and the inexperienced feeder
would have found it difficult to fatten
them for market at profit, especially
where he had to buy any considerable
quantity OF the feed. Those who pro-
iuced and fed good baby beef and
butcher steers generally made fail
profits.
The live stock extension service Of
L. s. U. desires to aid the cattlemer
of the state in producing a better class
of cattle, and, wherever conditions
are favorable, to encourage them Il
feeding at least part of their pro

somewhat at length on the part taken

Chicago last June to unite on a pres

Mr.. Roosevelt as saying in 1913 that

that 81 will never abandon the princi-

pledged ourselves and / will never

FANTASTIC GOLDFISH.
Some Curious Shapes Produced by the
Experts Of Japan.

Some Curious Shapes Produced by the
Experts Of Japan.
japanese fish breeders took advan-
tage of one of natures pranks to obtain
this much decorated goldfish. Years
ago Jap found in his aquarium fish
with two tails. He was so well pleased
with the novelty that he undertook to
make it the basis Of new type. Thus
the one accident by nature became the
grandfather Of race of two tailed fish.
We call them japanese fantails.
Not satisfied with the double tail. the
breeders next set about molding the
bodies of their fish into round balls.
Breeders first picked out the fish with
the shortest bodies and bred them ev-
cry year by painstaking selection. Fish
with shorter and shorter bodies were
produced until today the accepted type
of japanese fantail has body as
round as ball.
Not all fantails are alike. One with
the ends Of the tail cut off fiat is called
the square tail. Another with slight
inward curve to the edges Of the tail is
called veil tail. A third, with a deep
cut out tail, is named the ribbon tail.
All these varieties have long tails and
fins. You will recognize them instant
~ when you see them in an aquarium
floating about like bits Of lace in the
Philadelphia North American.
