Steers Sell Well.
To further substantiate the facts,
the live stock is a very profitable side
line for grain farming and is being
successfully carried out in this section
at Arvilla, recently sold on the South
st. Paul market at $3.50 per cwt. A
single steer which recently, topped the
South st. Paul market at $500 per
cwt. was also bred and fed in this
section of the country near Warren,
MINI. This steer was a pure bred
Polled Durham, two years nine
months old, weighing 1900 pounds in
South st. Paul and brought the own
er a net sum Of 1924. The weight Of
this animal and the quality he pos
sessed as, indicated by the price he
brought, emphasizes the fact that
good blood will tell and hat at least
pure bred sires are necessary to pro-
duce market toppers.
Hogs Are Profitable
Hogs have been equally as profit
able as cattle and many instances
could be cited showing that farmers in
this section of the country who have
started in the hog business are in
clined to increase rather than de-
crease their breeding operations. A
local farmer in reporting his expert
ence with hogs. said:
Il recently shipped a carload of 80
hogs of my own raising to South St.
Paul which Melted me about $4,000.
The better bred of course were the
best individuals and I would like to
buy some more pure bred sows."
Many similar instances might be
quoted showing the proitableness of
cattle, hogs and sheep on grain farms
in this section of the country.
While these instances show con-
clusively that live stock has been very
profitable to the men who have been
producing it under ordinary condi-
tons, no doubt it will prove more
profitable in the future when better
facilities are provided for handling it
on the farm and with the completion
of the new packing plant in this city,
it will greatly improve marketing and
ave a great amount of money to the
farmers of this section in the way of
shrinkage, commission, terminal
charge, yardage and freight.

MANY Of these cow have proved
to be good mixers, and had advant-
age been taken Of this there could
have been a very substantial income
derived from this source. But 1t was
our idea to handle these from a beef
production. standpoint. and 1t is our
intention 10 feed out the calves,
keeping some Of the best for breeding
purposes, and letting the poorest cows
go. We believe that in all probability
these cattle will show a greater re-
turn per acre from the corn and al
falfa and pasture utilized than will be
secured from grain crops on the aver
age.
This trial at least indicates how
quickly q bunch of cattle will in
crease, and also that there need not
be any great expense gone to in pro-
viding sheds, as they have been win
tered in a straw shed that will not
cost a dollar for each head of stool
that it will shelter. This shed is 80
feet wide and 80 feet long, and will
easily accommodate a hundred head
of average farm cattle.
During the winters, owing to the
fact that we have had a silo, we are
able to utilize the corn crop secured,
to the best advantage. In fact, the
cattle are fed some silage every day
from the time they are brought in

FIRST SALE YIELDED $4,000
National tuberculosis Association,
Which Sponsors Sale, Will Place
65o,ooo,o0o Seals on Sale to
Finance the Fight Against
tuberculosis.

The Red Cross Seal-as millions or
Americans know 1t TO day, Is an agent
of happiness and health. 1t was orig
mated In 1907 by Miss Emily p. Bissell,
of Wilmington, Delaware, who learned
through Jacob Rils Of somewhat SINH
lar seals that were sold in Norway for
the purpose of raising funds with
which to fight tuberculosis.
Miss Bissell persuaded the Ameri-
can Red Cross to take up the Idea with
the result that seals were sold In
limited number Of communities In
1908. The sale yielded revenue of
approximately $1,000. The Red Cross
then decided to issue the seals each
wear and to turn the proceeds over to
the National tuberculosis association
and its affiliated societies for the pur-
pose of financing the campaign against
tuberculosis. The number OF seals
sold in America increased by leaps
and bounds until in 1917 the total
reached 1s0,O00,000.
This year the seals are again on
sale beginning December l. More
than half a billion seals have been
printed for distribution to state and
local agents. In addition to the
seals Health Bonds" in denomina-
tons ranging from $500 10 500. 90
are to be sold In lieu Of seals to
large contributors, who do not send
out sufficient quantity OF mail In
December to make use of all the seals
they would like to purchase. The
combined quotas Of all the state or
ganizations call for more than $780,
600 to carry out the intensive educa-
tional campaign being conducted by
the National tuberculosis Association
and its 1000 affiliated societies.
The intensive sale of these seals
represents practical demonstration
OF every lesson that has been learned
regarding scientific distribution. Ex-
perts OF the highest standing In sales
management have co-operated TO the
extent OF assuring those interested
that every resident OF the United
States will have an opportunity TO buy
Red Cross Christmas Seals.
