ADDING VARIETY to RATION
Feeding Alfalfa Hay Before Cattle
Run on Pasture Is Especially Good
in Avoiding BIoat.

(By r. H. WILLIAMS, Animal Husband
man, Arizona Experiment Station.)
Stockmen have proved to their own
satisfaction that it pays to have some
alfalfa hay before cattle run on alfalfa
pasture. This is especially beneficial
in avoiding bloat and adding variety
to the ration. The animals seem to
get tired of succulent feed and wish
a variety. On this account it is al
ways wise to have a feed rack either
in the lane or in the field where the
animals may receive the dry feed.
Dairy COWS especially will relish few
bites Of the hay night and morning.
1t is simple matter to keep this hay
in the dry lot adjacent to the barn
where the cows may eat before md
after milking. Better gains will be
made in the young stock and also COWS
will yield more milk and do better If
allowed alfalfa hay while on pasture.

CAUSE OF DISEASED UDDERs
Bitter Taste and Rancid Smell in Milk
Traced to One Cow in Herd
Cases Of Sore Throat.

Dairymen have occasionally been
puzzled by a bitter taste and rancid
smell in milk, produced under SAM
tary conditions. It has been found
that such conditions can arise from
one cow in the herd with a diseased
udder and a bacterium has been fso-
lated as the immediate cause in the
milk. The bacterium credited as the
disturbing factor is said to belong to
the group lactis aerogenes. On farm
in wisconsin they found three cows af-
fected with mastitis to which was
traced the cause of 200 cases of severe
sore throat among the persons using
milk from the herd.

c1ent growth so that 'heifers may profit
ably be bred to freshen at two years
of age. 1t is seldom desirable for a
heifer to freshen at an earlier age.
In deciding upon the time to breed,
the size and development should be
given greater consideration than the
age, since it is important that the heif-
er have good growth by the time she
freshens. However, if allowed to be-
come too mature before breeding, es-
pecially in the case Of animals that
are heavily fed, there is sometimes diff
iculty in getting the heifers in calf.
1t is undesirable to have cows fresh
en- during the latter part of the sum-
mer, because their milk production
will be seriously hindered by hot
weather, flies, and dried-up pastures.
Rather than have he1fers freshen dur
ing the summer months, it is advisable
to postpone their breeding so that they
will freshen during the cooler season.

POINTS or BREEDING SHEEP

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agricu1ture.)
While all breeds have the general
form and characters of the type in
which they are classed, all purebred
sheep possess certain distinguishing
features which are inherent in the
breed and which receive the attention
of breeders. These breed characters
may have little value in themselves,
yet they are mark Of breeding and
give assurance that the animals will
breed true to type. Included in such
breed characteristics are such points
as size, color markings, presence or
absence Of horns, and popularity Of
shape. These differences make it es-
sential for the different breeds to have
different score cards or standards Of
excellence which give consideration to
these points. If one is selecting pure
bred sheep for breeding purposes, he
must know the breed type as repre-
sented by the excellence for the breed.
Score cards for the leading breeds
may be obtained from the secretaries
of the breed associations listed in
Farmers Bulletin 576,' Breeds of
Sheep for the Farm"
Whether one is breeding purebred
sheep or is engaged in grading up a
common flock, in the selection Of breed
ing stock he should consider the quail

These qualities are indicated by what

To be long-lived, regular, and pre-

maternal nature and present a femi-
nine appearance. The eve should

 IN EXHIBITION RUN
120 Miles Per Hour Made. Mechanical Trouble Forced Favorite to Pits, Giving
 Chevrolet Lead

The third big automobile race of the present season, at the Chicago speedway, June 22, resulted in a notable victory for the veteran driver. Louis Chevrolet. Fully S5oOo people, the largest crowd ever assembled at the Chicago track, watched the flying Frenchman, speedway champion of 1917, whizz around the two mile course in his maroon Frontenac 1oJ miles in 55 minutes and 29 seconds, an average of 109 miles an hour
 Chevrolet's victory was possible because of his freedom from tire and mechanical trouble. He assumed the lead early in the race and was never headed off, al- though closely pressed throughout by Ralph Mulford and Ira Vail
 At the start Ralph DePalma, Dario Resta and Louis Chevrolet ruled as favorites but mechanical troubles forced DePalma and Resta to the pits, allowing Chevrolet to pile up a lead which could not be overcome. His victory was also notable cne for the straight side or mo hook' type of cord tire, for his trusty F'rontenac was equipped with Goodyear cord tires of this type That racing drivers are discarding the old theory that none but a clincher tire would stay on the rim at racing speeds, is indicated in the use of thes traight side type by four of the noted drivers, Chevrolet, DePalma, Resta and Vail, at Chicago.

Since the discovery of neolin, a new substance used as soles on shoes, this product has attained worldwide distribution. From Australia comes a story that illustrates the difficulty that is experienced in introducing a new product into virgin territory on the other side of the world. To ad- vance the sale of this new sole in that country, the Goodyear Tire and Rubber company of Australia supplied calico signs to shoe repairmen, reading, "Ne- olin applied here.' Some of these re- pairmen stated that certain people actually thought it was sort of "shoe tonic" with which to varnish leather soles to add to their permanency. The insertion of the word "soles'' speedily rectified this, however, and established the idea that neolin was not a prep aration to be applied externally to shoes. but a high-grade sole itself

principle, officials found that such de-
 mands were in direct proportion to
 what certain car weighed, or ex- pressed in other words, directly pro-
 portional to the horse power of the en-
 zine.
 In devising a new formula for de-
 termining horse power, factors were in- troduced that favor those cars whose
 weight does not require a large en-
 zine to move it. As an example of
 the way the new rating works out.
 the typical four-cylinder car must bear only a 12 per cent increase in tax. the Light Six only a little over 20 per cent while the Big Six may stand fully S3 1-S per cent larger fee. When asked as to the effect this change brought about upon the Frank lin, Charles Denegre, Franklin dealer in this territory. pointed out that the horse power rating in this case re- | mained unchanged. and as a conse- quence the motor tax the Franklin laowner in Canada is required to pay is no larger.

Still further evidence of the efor.c of the automobile industry to cooperate with the government in winhing the war is found in the present movement of the National Automobile Dealers asso- citation to eliminate all repair work which the owner can attend to and thus release expert mechanics for war service.
 The last bulletin of the association rec ommends that Sunday work and night work be stopped and that automobile users be educated in the care of their cars and urged to keep them properly equipped with tools so that every driver can handle his emergency repairs with out calling for expert aelp.
 This curtailment of service will very likely go a long way towards making the future buyers of cars judge each car strictly on it's own merits rather than upon the reputation of the dealer

HOW CANADA PUT A WAR TAX UPON HER MANY AUTOMOBILES Franklin Rating Remained the Same After Change
 on Account of Light
 Weight

For sometime back many indications have pointed to the rapidly increasing popularity of the lightweight car, over heavier models, particularly in view of present war conditions, but not until recent action by the Canadian govern ment has the official stamp of approval ever been accorded light cars as class.
 In revising the motor laws to meet the new tax requirements, Canadians came to the conclusion that whatever increase was necessary should fall for the most part on those cars that made the maximum demands upon the nat ural resources, such as gasoline, rub Der, roads, and labor. Following this
