NEW BREEDS OF LIVE STOCK
Columbia Sheep Are Particularly
Adapted to Range Conditions
New Type of Horse.

The United States Department of
Agriculture is developing types Of live
stock believed to be more useful than
some now represented by present
breeds.
Range sheep breeding conducted in
Clark county, Idaho, is resulting in
a type which has become so fixed as
to warrant its classification as a breed.
These sheep, known as Columbia
sheep, are particularly adapted to
range conditions and are believed to
be profitable both for mutton and wool
production.
A new type of American utility
horse is rapidly being established, in
cooperation with the state, at Buff
falo, Wyoming. Among the character
istics of the type-possibly entitled to
the term 'breed'-are activity,
strength, endurance, and reasonable
speed. The horses are believed to
meet a demand for general farm and
ranch work, delivery purposes, and
for certain classes Of military serv-
ice.
Poultry breeding at the bureau
farm, Beltsville, Nd, shows progress
in the establishment of a e breed
of fowl. Certain characteristics, such
as white plumage and yellow legs and
skin, are now well fixed, but there is
still considerable variation in the type
and in color Of eggs The birds de-
veloped this year show improvement
over those Of a year ago.

JOINT OWNERSHIP OF SIRES
Nebraska Live Stock Owner Lists
Among Other Purebreds Frac-
tional Ownership Of Jack.

Enrolling recently in the Better
Sires-Better Stock" movement, a live
stock owner in Fillmore county, Neb.,
ustedln addition TO female stock. one
bull, three boars, five rams, and one
half interest in a purbred Kentucky
Jack. The fractional ownership of
purebred sires is common, the Depart
ment of Agriculture has found, among
persons desiring to improve the quail
ity of farm live stock, but who have
an insufficient number of female an
imals to warrant owning purebred
males in all classes. Fractional Own
ership of one purebred male is much
more desirable than the complete
ownership of several scrub or grade
sires.

paSturing forage crops, sheep could be
successfully raised without danger Of
infeStatiOn by stomach worms or 9TH
er internal parasites. Experiments in
the last four years to test the effect
of feed at breeding time upon the size
of the lamb crop have shown an In
creaSe Of 1873 per cent of lambs pro
duced by increased nutrition Of ewes
during mating season for both Belts
vile and Middlebury. This is an in,
crease Of 25.9 per cent in the Belts
vile flock and $50 per cent In the
Middlebury flock.
In experiments with 100 Western
ewes at the Middlebury farm to test
the effect of running sheep in perma-
nent pasture upon the growth Of
weeds, and the carrying capacity Of
the fields, it has been demonstrated
that sheep are benefited in cleaning
pastures of weeds, but that 1t must
be accomplished gradually and should
not be Overemphasized as a reason for
engaging in sheep raising,

The people OF Easton were never
