PUTTING ON THE FLESH

70 The past decade has Witnessed .
marked change in the methods en-
ployed by our stockmen in the pro.
duction Of beef. The large. free noun.
tain ranges have been cut into by the
forest reserves, and the ranging of cat
tie on these reserves is under the con-
troll of the federal government. Many
Of the large ranges have become more
valuable for agricultural purposes and
have been taken up by settlers.I1 This
has cut into the ranges very seriously
and has convinced the cattlemen that
II they are to continue in the business
they must change their methods. Here
,tofore the ranges were stocked with all
the cattle they would carry, keeping
the steers until four of five years old
before attempting o to market them.
This was fairly profitable SO long as
prices for beef were good and the range
grass was abundant. Present day con-
lditions,, however, have necessitated q
marked change. The market demand
for beef Cattle Of different class has
been RESPONSIBLE to d large extent for
the Changed conditions. The heavy cat
tie weighing from 1,4OO to 1900 pounds
were much in demand in former years,
but they are no longer desired. The
trade now requires light, handy weight
stuff, weighing from 1850 to 1880
pounds, and these weights should be
attained at from eighteen months to
two years. The new GAo.acre homestead
law win about Wind up the business.

DAIRY INDUSTRY IN COLORADO
By R. Mccain, Deputy Dairy
Commissioner

Colorado s many and varied indus
tries have all made splendid advance
ment in the past year. Dairying has
not only kept its place of prominence,
but has forged far ahead of previous
marks. This years growth has been
especially stimulated by the sharp do
mand for all lines of dairy products
at good prices. Sections where dairy.
ing has not formerly been followed
have gone into the industry. These
new dairy districts have taken to this
manner of farming on seeing its many
advantages in permanency and profit,
and Colorado's offering in way of eli
mate, feeds and market.
Many hundreds of good dairy cows
have recently been shipped into the
state, the larger portion of which have
been placed along the Arkansas valley
and on the western slope. Ten carloads
have been secured within the last six
months for the, territory adjoining and
contributary to one town alone. All
cows purchased have been brought from
the well developed dairy districts in
the central northern states, principally
Wisconsin, and have come from high
average producing herds. Good pure
bred bulls have also been imported With
these shipments. for building up TIE
new herds and the older herds alresdy
established. d H'ms. 9i
The increased dairy production of ths
state in the last year is fairly wen
measured by the per cent Of increase
of dairy products Manufactured by
commercial plants. This increase has
been 81 per cent over the amount man
ufactured during the corresponding pc.
riod the year previous. The building
of dairy product manufacturing plants
in the past year has amounted to $2le,-
900, or an increase of IS per cent over
value formerly invested. -Four new
creameries and five cheese factories
have been built. ".7o gyri
A comment might here be made on
the advance Of the cheese industry,
While it is yet very small and uudevel.
oped-so small, in fact, that we .lro I'm.
porting into the state some seven hua.

has been great incentive in the last
few years to the finishing of beef cat
tie on that product for the market. Uo
to, 10000 head of beef cattle are finish
ed each year on the beet fields and on
beet pulp and alfalfa hay and grain.
As the beet sugar industry develops,
which it will without question for some
years, and as our farmers get more ex-
perience in the proper methods of the
feeding and handling of beef cattle,
this branch of the feeding industry will
develop enormously. This winter has
been an exceptionally good one for
feeding cattle and great many Of our
leading farmers have engaged more or
less heavily in the finishing of good
stock. First class steers are finished
for market on the beet fields with
little hay, but without grain feed of
any kind. These steers at two and q
half years of age put ON two to two
and half pounds gain a day for nine
ty days on the beet fields alone. If the
feeders take these steers from the
fields when the tops are consumed and
put them on grain feed and hay Tor
thirty to fifty days longer, they always
top of the market.
Colorado has many natural ad-
vantages for the production of
high class beef cattle. No single
feed produced on American farms will
compare with well cured alfalfa hay
for putting gains on beef cattle and no
rough feed will combine so perfectly
with ground corn or barley to produce
a perfectly balanced ration for fatten-
ing steers. The average feeder steer
two years of age will make gain of
one and one-half pounds day on al
falfa hay alone and will use from
twenty-eight pounds of the hay to pro-
duce one pound of gain. They have
even done somewhat better than this,
but the average steer can easily be
made to do this under farm conditions.
Three pounds of alfalfa hay is equiva-
lent to one pound of corn, and nine
pounds of sugar beet pulp is the
equivalent of one pound of corn. fo:
fattening steers when combined with
alfalfa hay. u
Alfalfa hay and ground corn
meal makes most excellent ra-
tion for fattening steers. When beet
pulp is added to this ration approx
mately one pound more day can be
gained on two and three-year-old steers.
Many farmers have had excellent 1e-
suits from feeding steers upon alfalfa
hay and mangels, fed in the field and
harvested by themselves during the
earlier part of the feeding season and
later fed from the pits where the man
gels are stored. Many others have had
very satisfactory results from feeding
alfalfa hay on which has been sprca1
the refuse molasses from the sugar fac
tories. Some of these steers that have
never eaten pound of grain have
brought the highest market price when
put upon the market and returned a
substantial profit to the feeder. While
they would have given even better -e-
suits had limited amount of grain
been fed with the molasses and hay,
yet the returns were such that many
more farmers are engaging in the bust
ness of feeding steers in this way.

riculturalist reports the cost of pro duction of potatoes this year has ranged from ss7 to $l36 ga acre. with yields ranging from so to 46o bushels an acre. The present ruling price re- ceived by the farmers near New York is S1.5o bushel The man who spent .s135 an acre and secured the top yield nets s540 an acre over cost of production, or four times the money he laid out.
 The average farmer raising potat- oes for the market is getting 200 or 250 bushels to the acre, or $500 for the s135 he spent in production. He is thus netting from STA to $1 bu- shel on his crop. A Kansas agricul- turist has computed the ordinary pro- fit to the farmer on bushel of wheat sold at the government price of $2.20 to be from 79 to 99 cents bushel over production. Yet we sympathize with the farmers, We'll, it may be true that only hog can be hog. but there are farmers who come pretty near being hogs also.-Progressive- Miner.

SOLDIERS COST
 $500 F. Q. E, CAMP

SEATTLE, Nov 21.-To put Wash ington's draft quota of 7,296 men in camp cost the government close to $65,000, or an average of $8.90 a man. This information has been ob- tained by Maj. Albert Noodle, chief of draft and registration in the office of the adjutant general, and forwarded to the war department at the request of the provost marshal general.
 The figure includes all the expenses of the registration and selection up to December 1 of this year. Among the varieties of expense covered are printing mad supplies, rent of offices. clerk hire and payment of draft board members. About balf the members of local boards claimed pay, which is at the rate of 4$ per each day of actual service. Those who claimed pay worked on the average of fifteen days aomnth, making the average monthly compensation of draft board members $6O, or $50 when those who did not put in claims of included.
 More than 3O,000 men were ex- amined to obtain the states quota.

RUNNING A daily paper in a town of thirty or forty inhabitants is a greater strain than the imagination can conceive of. Despite the fact that every act of John Doe and Richard Roe is chronicled assiduously, the re- suits when compiled in type are so small as to be negligible. Nearly ev- cry coast town in Alaska has been practically evacuated this winter, thanks to the policy of conservation and the ravages of the war. If re- porter could only write up the Snow birds and the Dogs, an eight column paper could be quickly filled, but alas. our prominent citizens have seen their names in print so often they are like the man who ate mush three times a day for six months.-it gets rather wearisome.

VERY STRANGE

Nearly every paper issued by the food administration contains some thing about the necessity of saving flour for Europeans and eating corn meal mush at home, or something like that. Mir. Hoover says our allies do not find cornmeal as palatable as flour and adds that they do not un- derstand its preparation.
 Now it strikes us as very peculiar that the allies cannot take a written or printed recipe for mush and make mush. Their dislike for mush has nothing to do with us. There are many things that we don't like either; such as digging down in our pockets to pay our taxes due to the war, and wheatless, meatless and potatoless days and pay the barber two prices for haircut; but we take our medi- cine without turning up our noses.
 Since the war began, Europeans have learned a good many things; can they not, by assiduous applica- tion to a matter of vital importance to us, with a recipe in their hands, learn how to make and eat mush?-- Progressive-M Miner.
