FOR MORE AND BETTER LIVESTOCK
Handling Cattle
(By j G. Haney, Agn Exhn. Dept, international Harvester Coz

1t is coming to be realized more
n more by every farmer that his
continued prosperity will depend
largely upon diverstfying his farming
operations; that is, in being independ-
emit OF Any particular line Of his oper-
atoms. SO that failures in one will not
particularly embarrass him. It is
readily seen from observations in all
sections, that the farmer who diyersi-
fies his farming operations is most
prosperous, and Is enabled to keep up
the production Of his land much long
er than especially the strictly grain
farmer. While the production Of cat
tie in the United States has increased
slightly for the past few years, this in
crease has no nearly kept up with
the demand due to increase in opu
lation. Consequently there is a better
outlook for raising cattle at the pres
ent time than ever before.
Raising Cattle.
While it would be most desirable
to begin handling cattle by raising
your W stock, in many cases this is
possible or practical, That is,
many farms are SO situated that they
can grow feed for handling stock dur
ing the winter, but would not have
sufficient land to furnish pasture DUR
ing the summer. In such cases the
cattle needed for consuming the sur
plus feed might be bought to greater
advantage than attempting to raise
them. In other cases, where much
land Is available for pasture, 1t might
be advisable to raise cattle and sell
them to those who have grown the
feed. Where possible to do SO, the
feeding of Tome grown cattle is most
satisfactory.
Buying Cattle.

be utilized for silage. It has been de-
.termined by carefully conducted tests,
that grown cattle can be wintered, and
not only made to maintain their
weight, but make some gains, on a
small amount of silage and such
roughage as good straw or corn fod-
der. If alfalfa hay is available they
VIII do much better. Twenty pounds
OF silage n what wheat or oat straw
they would eat, has more than main
tanned the weightSof breeding cows.
UtilizingI Feeds Available.
1t is advisable in every case t plan
on utilizing such feeds as are avail
able. In this small grain region,
straw is perhaps most abundant Of ali
the surplus feeds, such as silages or
small amountssof alfalfa hay, is avail
able to go with this, excellent results
may be obtained. This is especially
true II h precaution is taken to cut
the oats a little on the green side.
and then at ~threshing time to add al
bushelTo SO of salt to each straw
stack. Many farmers are making this
q practice. That is, In threshing the
straw which they expect to use for
feed, they have a boy stationed at the
blower, or have some one else to see
to this. and throw In occasional hand
fuls Of salt. In this way It is evenly
distributed through the stack, and the
straw is made much more palatable.
With. little silage and good oat
wintering good cattle. And lie it il
realized that q great deal OF the farm
llandNof the northwest must be treated
occasionally with acultivated crop,
land perhaps seeded down to grass al
alfalfa. there should be plenty OF good
feed available on every farm for q
nice bunch Of cattle. !.

Epitter Indictment Of the war lords
who have brought such misery on the
German people and. despite all pro-

is voiced in the Arbetter Zeitung of

the great Krupp factory:

Thus runs asletter from a soldiers
wife to her husband. How many
other women will be writing similar
letters to their husbands at the front?>
must the recipients of such let
tiers feel when they see from the pa
pers how they are lauded as heroes
and how much Is being talked at fes-
t1val banquets about the thanks of
the Fatherland. Those thanks never

GERMAN ARISTOCRACY
NEEDS NO FOOD TICKETS
Aristocracy in Germany still does
not know what food shortage means.
The Munich Post says:
The gilded youth and their gildedi
elders. the aristocracy of money and
of birth, 'untroubled by such things
as food tickets. have long had a gold

Palace restaurant.

bated breath of prominent person

who were loudest in their appeals to
the people to suffer n hold out. Yet
these very patriots declined to forego
the least detail Of exquisiteness In the
arrangement Of their dinner menus at
Herr P%eterhaus elegent establishment.
r'It was due to the influence Of these
aristocratic guests that
Peterhaus obtained his provisions
from the market as freely as he chose
and without the silly Formally of tic
kets or permits. Two butchers were
kept constantly employed by him for
his own needs-and all this at a time

OATS AND CORN
CONTROLLED BY
BEARS FRIDAY
Absence Of Frost Quickly
Causes Heavy Selling
Pressure.

Chicago, Sept. 21.-Bears took con-
troll of the corn market today owing
chiefly to the fact that threatened
OPP. The market closed unsettled, ga
to l lao net lower. Oats finished 1-2
to'7-8c off, and provisions UP 5 to SO
cents.
Almost complete absence of the
frosts which had been looked for re-
suited in a good deal of selling press
ure as soon as the market opened. A
forecast of generally fair and warmer
weather added force to the sentiment
rent, too, of freight congestion at Bal
timore and that the government had
taken over corn In neutral vessels
lying at the seaboard. Assertions,
however, that the Dutch government
was making progress toward tonnage
arrangements with the United States
rallied the market q little as the day
came to an end.
Oats descended with corn. Large
primary receipts and talk of an en-
barge at Baltimore acted as a weight
on the market.
Receipts of wheat to date r still
heavily short Of last years figures,
Notwithstanding an increase Of $4,000
bushels for the week at Minneapolis
as compared with a decrease there of
100000 bushels a year ago. On the
other hand. fall seeding is much fur

in production at home and in our
insular possessions. So that af-
ter. deducting all the exports we
have left over for domestic con-
sumption around 400 million
more pounds of sugar than we
had left in the year before the
war.
One influence that could really
OBJECT the sugar market so as to
raise prices does not seem to have
attracted much attention. Ii is
the destruction of sugar cane and
refineries in the Cuban insurrec-
tion, where considerable damage
is reported to have been done.
But the extent of this influence
is not yet calculable, and in any
event, it has nothing to do with
price increases up to the present.
Prices shouldn't be raised in
such a situation. They should be
going down. III
