Poor feeding kills many young

Poor growth and lack Of thrift

The Aorxa Situation.

ne f10fHo ottudkobs-
The longer the war continues in Eu-
rope, the more evident it becomes that
the United States must for many years
to come furnish our own people the
heavy draft horses they viii need Ana
il Is very probable that when the war
Is over. a number OF European couh-
tries will buy literally OF our best
draft horses for breeding purposes.
Much Of the fighting in France and
Belgium has been in the heart OF the
heavy horse breeding district. A large
number of the breeding animals were
moved out OF the country as rapidly
as possible. and taken TO the south and
west Of France. But the continuation
of the struggle no doubt is making II
necessary to use an increasing hummer
OF the better draft horses. While the
same condition does not prevail IN
Great Britain. yet their horse stock IL
rapidly being depleted. ~
The sensible course for the breeders
Of this country to follow is not only to
breed the very best quality possible In
draft horses. but to perfect county or
district organization. agree upon some
one breed in each district, and set
about producing the very highest quail
ity OF horses Of that breed. In some
counties this work is already under
way. II should be taken up seriously
in every district in the corn belt.
Where there is but one main breed
in the district, il is much easier for
horse buyers 10 go into that district
and pick up full carload OF horses OF
uniform type and breeding: and the
growers will get a substantial increase
in price because OF the saving thus
made for the bu"er. The question OF
breed is not OF so much Importance.
The vital thing is that the animals be
the very best possible OF that breed.
The farmers ri any county in the
corn belt can made that county famous
and can enrich themselves by getting
together, agreeing on plans for com
munity breeding. and working them
out intelligentiy.-Wall Farmer.

Iowa Buying Many Stock Cattle.
Recent reports from the various live
stock markets in the middle west show
the state of Iowa to be- liberal patron
OF the cattle pens this spring. Stock
cattle are being shipped into the state
in large. numbers, consequently the
pastures will carry their full share of
beef and dairy cattle once more. Iowa
feeders were extremely cautious q year
ago on account of the prevalence Of
foot and mouth diseaee in so many
parts OF the country, and as result
hundreds Of pastures thruout the state
were not grazed in 1915.
Indicative OF the impetus given ny
the elimination Of the foot and-mouth
disease are few figures from the
Kansas City market reports. Durins
the first three months of 1916 Iowa
buyers purchased 432 carloads Of stock
cattle against 25g carloads for the Same
period IN 1915. Sales for the month
of March alone this. year were 20a car
loads against seventy zone carloads last
