TO SAVE CATTLE.
Movement Of Stock from Drought
Stricken Portions of Texas to
States.

! Trainloads Of cattle are being
shipped from the drought-stricken
portions of Texas to other points in
the south just as fast as railroads
facilities will permit, according to a
statement of the Bureau of Animal
Industry, United States Department
Of Agriculture, which has been work
ing to relieve the situation of the
Texas cattlemen.
Since July l, there has been moved
from Texas to pointsin the South
easern States more than $4,000 head
of cattle,and the department expects
that by the end of September full
ly $4,000 head will be so moved.
This movement was made necessary
because of the drought and other
conditions in certain parts Of Texas,
which threatened the loss Of valua-
BILE breeding stock Most of the cat
tie now being moved are females;
practically all were bought outright
by farmers and landowners in the
new territory. The expense Of the
work of supervising shipment of
the cattle, to the end of September,
will not exceed $4,000 which makes
the cost incurred by the department
for moving the cattle only about 80
cents a head.
Why the Work Was Undertaken.
Because of the lack of rain and
consequent lack of pasturage in
much of the range region Of Texas
the Department of Agriculture un-
dertook to open up to cattle raisers
channels of outlet for cattle which
could not be carried on the range any i
longer. Under the conditions as they
have existed in Texas the cattle own
ers first had to get rid of their OIL
der steers, then the cows themselves
which formed the very basis of the
herds. The department is doing
that it can to get these
cattle into regions Of plentiful for
lge, and has been using every posi-
BE agency; otherwise many would

Amateur Photographers To
Complete

New Orleans, La, Oct. Is, 1917.
To the Parish Chairmen:
The Louisiana Division of the
Womens' Committee had had numer-
Gus requests from the Ladies' Home
Journal, from Washington and va
rious states for pictures concerned
with the Registration and Food Con-
servation in louisiana
Our Press Chairman, Mrs. E. W.
Army, has thought out the following
unique plan: To start a competi-
ton between amateur photographers
for the best pictures taken on Regis
tration Day pertinent to the Regis
tration. Instead of offering the u.s.
ual prizes, the merchants will be
asked to give an order on themselves
to the winners of the prizes for some
article that would be appreciated by
men serving in the Army or Navy.
The prizes will not go directly to
the winner, but to the soldier or
sailor whom the winner would desig-
nate. This plan is unique, patriotic,
and will be a most wholesome adver-
tisement for the State of Louisiana,
as the pictures obtained thereby will
reach ali parts of the country.
A number of New Orleans mer-
chants have already offered prizes,
the list to appear in the New Or
leans papers, but we are anxious to
have Statewide competition, and
would be glad if you will
give it all the publicity possible in
your community.
The rules governing this competi-
ton are:
1. All pictures must be unmount-
ed.
2. All pictures must be sent in to
Mrs. E. w. Army, Howard Annex to
City Hall, New Orleans, La, not la
ter than Monday, October %.
8. The pictures will be judged by
q committee to consist of the exec
utive board of the Woman's Commit
tee and professional photographers.

A Complaint Which Is a Compliment.

The firm which has the contract
for the removal of garbage at Camp
Zachary Taylor has made complaint
that on account of the extreme linn
tied amount of food available, 1t
will be compelled to throw up the
contract. The contracting concern
had prepared to feed a lot of hogs
from the supplies obtained at the
Camp, and evidently thought they
had fat contract. The announce
ment of disappointment is one of
the best bits of news which has come
from the nationwide effort to save
food. With So, 900, 900 men In war,
most of whom would be glad to get
the scraps from the food which our
boys are now getting IN American
cantonments, it shows that the mill
tary powers are aiding the civilian
effort and sacrifice being made. We
had better begin to save at the very
beginning, and thus avoid dire want
at the end.

treatment is continued for long time
the animal may become permanently
Stunted.
Stunning an animal as the result Of
insufficient food may be only tempo
rary condition. An animal does not
lose it's capacity to grow as the result
of stunning. f. B. Mumford, dean Of
the Missouri College Of Agriculture,
cites feeding test at the Missouri ex-
pertinent station in which an animal
that had been stunted by poor feeding
to such an extent that it weighed only
200 pounds at twelve months Of age,
gained SAL pounds during the second
year. Only, SO pounds Of grain for
each pound of gain made were re-
CURED on this steer stunted during the
first twelve months. A steer that had
been generously fed during the first
twelve months Of his life gained only
500 pounds during the second twelve
months, and this gain was more expen-
sive than the gain made on the stunted
steer. The amount of grain required
TO make q pound of gain on the we'll
fed steer was as pounds.
It Is certain that stunning an animal
even for so long period as twelve
months does not destroy its capacity
to grow.

Live stock products are the result

growth. The younger the animals the

factors influence the tendency of an
animal to grow. Among these are age,

quantity and quality Of food. A given
amount of food will produce more
growth on young animal than on the
