SOME 0LD-TIME BIG CATTLE
One English OK, History Shows,
Weighed 800 Pounds, Another
4,340 Pounds.

With all the modern Improvement
In breeds of live stock it may be
doubted whether there is living today
steer or OK equal in size to some OF
the fat cattle Of olden times.
In 1916 there was disposed of by
rattle at Pratt's Old London inn, In
Taunton, England, giant OK of the
Devon breed that stood 10 hands high
and weighed 300 pounds. But this
one was not in it with the Durham OK
which earned modest fortune for its
owner, John Day, and brought the now
famous Shorthorn cattle into high re-
pute a little more than a century ago.
A writer in the Mark Lane Express
described this extraordinary animal
as aving weighed when two years old
$500 pounds, and when slaughtered
ut eight years old his carcass dressed
2,478 pounds, while his live weight at
that time was stated to have been
1910 pounds. He girthed II feet l
inch just behind the shoulders. His
owner exhibited him six years through
England and Scotland. having a van
for his conveyance about the country.
It was in 1907 that Days OK dislocated
his hip and had to be killed.
FavOrite, the sire of this bovine
wonder. was made famous by the pro-
digious size and remarkably fine form
of the steer. When Charles Colling Of
Darlington, who is regarded as the
founder Of the Shorthorn breed, sold
all his cattle at auction In 1910.

ment OF Agriculture.)
In dealing with contagious diseases
Of cattle the basic principle Of pre-
vention is to keep carriers of tnfec'
ton away from the herd. Next In
importance is maintaining the sur"
roundings in a sanitary condition. Fol-
lowing this the animals natural re-
sistance to disease should he increaAed
by natural and occasionally by artlti'
cial means. Ordinarily disease stalks
about the country only in the bodies
of diseased animals or attached to
some intermediate object; these may
include healthy or recovered animals,
contaminated feed and water, infected
cars and pastures, or the shoes or
clothing of some inquisitive person
who insisted on seeing the diseased
stock Avoiding such diseased AMI
mails and keeping healthy ones away
from carriers of Infection are the i'm
portant methods of preventing disease.
The lack of immediate action upon
the part of the farmer when he dis
covers animals that show symptoms
of disease or sickness often Is respon-
sible for the loss not only of his own
stock but for that of his neighbors.
At this time when every step should
be taken promptly to avoid losses and
to conserve production 1t is all the
more important that the farmeS with
sick cattle should get in touch at once
with the local veterinarian or county
agricultural agent.

Many farmers have their sows far

we're in northern sections during March

tect the sow from cold. Give her

On the second day a thin bran mash

moderately for the first week. A mix
ture Of two parts of corn and one OF
middlings may be fed in increasing
amounts until the sow is eating a full
feed. If skim milk can be fed in ad'
dition to the grain, there is nothing
better to make the SOW give full
flow of milk. Another good grain mix
ture for the SOW at this time is six
parts of corn and one of oil meal. II
skim milk is available, the SOW will
do well on four pounds of milk to one
If corn. A full grain ration for a day
should never be more than four per
cent of the sow's live weight. If the
SOW can be put on alfalfa, clover, blue
grass, or rape pasture, less corn will
be required. A corn ration of about
two per cent of the sow's live weight
with good pasture makes a cheap and
adequate supply.
