Growing Calves for Beet.

In order that calves may be qualified for the production of baby beef. that is, fattened and matured for market between one and two years of age. they must have quality and good finish. The consumer does not want the un- finished yearling. and the calf that does not have quality will not take on a high finish. Neither will the calf lacking in early-maturjhg qualities fatten properly during the latter part of the feeding period, but instead it will use most of the feed which 1t con sumes for growth. The feeder should keep this in mind and first determine compete on the fat yearling market. and if he decides that they are not. they should be finished with coarse feeds and marketed later.
 The deep. wide-bodied, thick -fieshed calf with short legs and an abundance of quality as indicated by fineness of hair. texture of skin. smoothpess of flesh, and general refinement about the head and other parts of the body. is the type best suited for making prime baby beef. Uniformity in size, weight and color should not be overlooked either. because such factors are an ad- vantage in marketing. These points are of great importance in selecting caives that viii make rapid gains and return the most pounds of meat for the amount of feed given them.
Tombstone epitaph., 1918-03-24

pean war and the consequent depletion of sthe European supply of cattle. the task of meeting the increasing de- mands for beef and beef products, to a large extent. has been put upon the people of the United States.
 The exports of dressed beef and beef products have increased 177 per cent during the last three years. The short age of beef abroad. like the shortage of other meat products, doubtless will be accentuated as the war progresses.
 Beef production can be increased in the settled farm areas of the nation. and especially in the South. Ii can be increased everywhere by preventing the loss of flesh by calves during their first winter and keeping calves grow ing during this period so that beef anil mals may be marketed at earlier ages. thereby requiring the maintenance of fewer stocker cattle and making pos sible the maintenance of larger breed ing herds; by using a larger propor- ton of bulls on the range to insure larger calf crops; by using good bulls only: by reducing the tick-infested areas as rapidly as possible; by elimi- hating as far as possible the losses from disease and predatory animals ; by transferring animals from regions of scarcity of feed to those where there is an abundance of feed by pro viding a more ample supply of winter feed and better shelter, and by utiliz- ing all roughage produced. either as fodder. hay. or silage, and supplement- ing these feeds with more nitrogenous concentrates and less grain.
