man, however, who can separate the
wheat from the chaff in the great guam
titles of printed political matter placed
before his eyes. 1t appears to be an
easy matter for every republican ed
itor to find any number of good argu-
ments to prove that every republican
office-seeker is the man for the place
and n saint to boot, while his every
democratic opponent is without doubt u
wolf in Sleeps clothing. a crook and a
man totally unfit to hold the office to
which he aspires. Partisan papers on

that every democratic candidate is a
paragon of virtue, II person whose pur-

generally as crooks, villains and trick

TIMBER NEEDED FOR FRANCE
May Be Drawn Upon for Sup
ply After the War.

France is beginning TO figure out
how to meet an anticipated shortage
in lumber and firewood after the war.
The destruction of forests by she'll
fire and the heavy demand for lumber
for barracks and road construction
combine to make n deficit of 100000
cubic feet annually.
Beyond the range of shells, on both
sides of the front, the military
woodsmen's axes have drawn heav-
lily on timber from the North sea to
the Swiss frontier. The consumption
of lumber will increase during the war
Mt the rate of 100000 cubic feet
year and for several years after peace
Is made, the demand will continue for
the repair and rebuilding of devastat-
ed regions.
The solution of the problem is con-
sidered To be question of Transports
ton, and of forest exploitation In the
colonies. Specialists have calculated
that French equatorial and western
Africa, Madagascar, Guinea and Hin
do-Chlna possess $4,000 square miles
of virgin timber land, which could
amply supply France, and several 9th
or countries with fuel and lumber.

PROPER SELECTION OF SIRE
One Of First Considerations In Breed
Ing Of Livestock--Pure Bred
Gives Best Results.

One of the first considerations in the
breeding of livestock is the selection
Of the proper sire. The influence OF
the sire is pre-eminent because he di-
rectly affects greater number of Off
spring than does the single female.
There can be no improvement or grad
ing-up process by the use of scrub
slres. Horse breeders should recog-
nize the fact that Ii is not n paying
proposition simply to breed mares TO
any stallion that may be available. A
sound, pure-bred stallion should be
used IL the best results are to be OBJ
tanned.
The sta,,.-n selected should con-
forDa us closely as possible TO the
breed and type of the mares that are
to be bred. Stations of pure breeding
are, by virtue of their unmiXed an
cestry, possess-I of greater prepo-
tency than are grades or scrubs, and
will therefore invariably impress their
offspring with their breed character
istlcs and individual merit.
A low service fee is too often the
deciding factor with many farmers
and mare owners in the selection of
sire. A low service fee ought never
to be temptation, but rather should
be taken as warning. A low fee Is
usually a sign of an inferior stallion
| Colts from inferior or scrub sires will
sell for much less than those sired
by the sound, pure-bred stallion.

SALT ESSENTIAL FOR SHEEP
Particulars Of Interesting Experiment

Of Big Value.

Quoted In France some years ago pro-
vides interesting information:
Three lots of sheep were fed on hay,
straw, potatoes and beans for 134 days.
One lot had no salt; one lot one-half
ounce each day, and the other lot
three-fourths ounce each daily. Those
that had one-half ounce gained Az
pounds more than those that had no
salt, and IL pounds more than those
that had three-fourths ounce. The
sheep that had salt cut IL pounds
more wool, and better fleece than
those that had no salt, and showed
much better results in both quality and
texture in the wool.

MULE AND HORSE SHORTAGE
War Demand and Few Number Of
Animals Bred Are Bound to Bring
About Higher Prices.
Clemson College Bulletin.)

More than million horses and
mules of the United States have been
used for military purposes in connec-
ton with the European war during the
the last IS months-that is about one
horse to every 20 in the country. For
some time before the European war
prices had sagged until breeders had
barely more than 30 per cent of their
mares mated. The war demand and
the few number of animals bred are
bound to bring about high prices for
horses and mules, not only during the
war but for several years after.
There are probably 10000 mares on
South Carolina farms, and only 1000
to 5000 of these are regularly produc.
ing foals. At least 1900 of these
mares should be regularly foaling.
To forestall the shortage and high
prices as much as possible, the logical
thing to do is to put every mare to

DRIED BEET PULP is
GOOD AS STOCK FEED
Almost Equal to Corn in Feeding
Value and Much Cheaper,
Says Colorado Expert.

(By CHARLES I. BRAY, Colorado Agri-
cultural College, Fort Collins.)
Cattle feeders should make consider
able use of dried beet pulp for dairy
cows and fat stock. Eastern dairymen
ship large quantities of dried beet pulp
for the use of their dairy cows, paying
much higher prices than need to be
paid in the West %he dry pulp when
soaked with water swells up to three
or four times Its dry bulk, and is then
as good a succulent feed as silage or
roots. Many of the high-record cows
in eastern herds have this dry beet
pulp as part of their daily ration.
For feeding steers, the dried pulp
is almost, if not quite, equal In feed
ing value to corn, though ii Is not
quite as palatable and cattle may not
eat quite as much of 1t. The sugar
factory at Brighton, Colo, is being
equipped with drier this year. Since
beet pulp is being priced at SO ton,
1t should prove a very economical feed,
as barley and corn will probably be
around S4S and $50.

SUPERIOR TYPE OF MUTTON SHEEP.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Weight always should be considered
In connection with age In market sheep
and with sex in breeding animals.
Sheep one year old and under are con-
sidered lambs on the market. Lambs
are desirable as butcher stock, because
they are in greatest demand by the
consumer and are most profitable to
the producer If he is raising sheep only
for mutton production. Weight Is In
fluenced by breed and degree of fat
ness as well as by age. Although plenty
Of weight Is desired, there Is objection
to great weight because 1t is likely TO
be associated with coarseness and a
low dressing percentage and give cuts
too large to suit the demands of the
retxil trade. Lambs weighing from
70 to so pounds are in greatest de-
mand. Mature wethers should weigh
over 90 pounds.
Form.
The point of view of the butcher
should be kept in mind In considering
the form of q mutton steak. AS the
most valuable cuts of meat are on the
hind quarters and loin, the butcher re-
quires a heavy leg of mutton and n
broad back with deep, full loin. In
order to secure this development in the
hind quarters there must be CORE
spending development In other parts
Of the body. The general form, then,
should be smooth and even, large
frame without heavy bones giving
plump appearance. Low-set, broad
forms generally have special devel-
opment of loin and leg and dress out
with relatively small percentage of
waste, hence are most desired by the
butchers. A full, smooth outline is an
indication of flesh which is thick and
even. Long legs, dropping rump, fiat
ribs and narrow chest with open shout
ders, giving a general angular and
