MORE RYE BEING PRODUCED
Greatest Increase Seen In 1917 and
191s-Farmers Becoming More
Familiar With Crop.
prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of AgrLculturel

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
More acres and more bushels of rye
were harvested in 1918 than in any
previous year in the history Of the
United States.
From 1s49 to 1909 rye production
in the United States was practically
stationary. From 1909 to 1918 the
production was almost trlpled, the
greatest increase coming in 1917 and
1918.
Five years ago there was approx
mately acre of rye for each p acres
of wheat in the United States. In
1918 there was approximately acre
Of rye for each 10 acres Of wheat.
The 1918 rye crop was more than
bushels.
The world production Of rye
amounts TO about one and two-thirds
billion bushels. somewhat less than
half the annual wheat production.
The United States department OF
agriculture thinks it probable, now
that farmers are becoming familiar
with the crop and its advantages, that
rye win have a permanently larger
place in American agriculture, and
that from an agricultural point Of
view there should be a further con-
siderable increase In production.

ing 30 per cent. The increase Of the
daughters of the good bulls mentioned
above occurred with remarkable regu-
larity. On the other hand, a poor bull
decreases the production of his daugh-
tiers.
Note the following results of using
a scrub bull:
The dam produced. $500. .145 pounds of fat
The daughters of The bull
and this dam produced. .126 pounds Of fat
The granddaughter of the
bull produced ............ SO pounds Of fat
1t is only when the lifetime-produc-
ton records of all his daughters are
compared with those of their dams
that the full value Of the bulls services
to one generation can be known. In
addition his influence on the herd
will be noticeable for many genera
tons. This illustrates the great value
Of good bull. The damage done by
an inferior bull may be equally great
No other argument should be neces-
sary in urging that every association
be particular in selecting bulls.
Real Value of Bull.
All pure-bred bulls are not equally
valuable. The daughters of some are
inferior to their dams, while the daugh-
tiers Of others greatly excel their dams.
The only way one may know the real
value Of the bull is to compare the pro-
duction records of his daughters with
those Of their dams. 1t takes at least
three years from the time the bull is
put into service to obtain some of this
information, and very often the farm
er has disposed Of the bull a year or
more before the end Of that time.
When he finds that the bull has inn
proved the herd, his search for the
bull may end in the stockyard or with
the butcher 1t is seldom that such a
bull is found again. If he still lives
and is being used, it may be at con-
siderable distance from the original
owner. Since the two do not meet, the
second user has no means of knowing
the worth of the bull. Thus many valu-
able bulls have been lost and inferior
ones used instead. In the bull asso-
citation this cannot happen, for all the
bulls are kept in the association until
thoroughly tried. The poor ones are
then sent to the block and the good
ones kept and judiciously used to their
full capacity to the end of their useful
ness, which may be II or Is years. This
advantage alone is enough to repay all
the trouble and expense of forming an
association.

MORE AND BETTER CHICKENS
Owner Of Common MongreI Flock
Will Soon Apologize for Its Exist

Prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
1t will not be long before the owner
Of common mongrel flock will apollo
gize for its existence. This is the opin-
lon of the poultry-extension worker of
the United States department of agri-
culture who is a leader in the cam
paign for more and better poultry on
farms in south and southwestern Ar
kansas. In many parts of Arkansas
the Importance of better poultry and
more efficient management is being
recognized by progressive business
men, commercial organizations, bank
ers and others and they are active in
their moral and financial support in
cooperating with the government anS
state extension forces in their efforts
10 convince the farmer that standard
bred poultry properly managed is a
paying industry. and that the old
barnyard mongrel hen must get out
of the way for standardized, uniform
f1ocks.
The county agent Of Drew county
mas placed 5O pens of one male AMI
four females each of pure-bred Bar
red Plymouth Rock and Rhode Island
Reds on so farms, in charge of boy
and girl poultry-club member. The
Monticello Chamber Of Commerce and,
the banks of Monticello have advanced
the money to purchase these pure
bred fowls and have assisted in their
distribution. In addition to the 80
pens Of chickens, over 100 sittings
Of pure-bred Matching eggs have been
secured for the club boys and girls.

When conditions render it feasible
small fiocks OF poultry should be kept

peciHsJy in the suburbs of large cities.
4 Sc need for this extension of poultry
raising is particularly great where con-
sumption exceeds production, as in the
northeastern states. Through utiliza-

ment of AgricuIture.)
In all bull-association work the in
huence of heredity is recognized. Since
like tends to beget like in production
as well as in appearance, there is lit
tie danger that the pure-bred bull
whose ancestors for several genera
lions have been first-class individuals
will inherit or transmit the qualities
of some inferior distant ancestor. If
he is also well formed, strong and
healthy, he will almost certainly in
crease out of all proportion to his cost
the income from the first generation of
a scrub or low-grade herd. In fact the
time may come when it will be pos
sible to eliminate all bulls except those
whose dams are in the advanced regis
try. If the best bulls were used to
their full capacity in pure-bred herds,
and If only good pure-bred bulls were
used in the ordinary dairy herds, the
income from the dairy business could
be vastly increased. If possible, all
bulls used should be from advanced
registry dams with a butterfat record
Of not less than 400 pounds. The dams
should be from high-producing ances-
tors. The bun should always be SUI
periOr to the best cows in the herd,
and all cows should be well bred and
carefully selected.
Improvements Due to Sire.
Few organizations have been in OPP
GRAFTON long enough for the producing
daughters Of an association bull to be
compared with their dams. The fol.
lowing figures, however, received from
an association at New Windsor, Md,
show the improvement due to the sire
and the average butterfat production
OF daughters Of association bulls COM
