ERRACING SIDES OF HILLS

Terracing the sides of FARMLAND
Aflls to prevent washing Of the soil is
. profitable occupation at any time of
The year but particularly so during
the fall when the farmer Is not very
busy. The cost of the work often will
not exceed the water damage of a

Aeld responsible for much of the worn

Factors Influencing Prices
Given. Outlook for
Market Brighter.

For some time the cattle market has
had the farmer with Il few head OF
cattle and the feeder with many head
on his hands guessing. Conditions
have been so unusua that they have
been at a loss 10 know what to do
and many have become discouraged
sold their stock and quit Others are
still watching and hoping for better
days and the following article on rae
tors influencing the market by ~ L.
Jordan, marketing specialist, for the
University of Tennessee Agricultural
Extension Service will no doubt be OF
interest to every cattle owner. Mr..
Jordan states that the time Old eco
nomic law of supply and demand is
influencing the present cattle marker
very effectively. The supply of beer
cattle has decreased very materially
during the past eight Nonths, which
would with a nor1nal}outlet or demand
tend to increase prices. But as a mat
ter of fact instead pf the demand
being normal ii has also decreased.
II the demand for beef or the consump-
zion of beef had only decreased IL
proportion to the decrease in supply
prices would have tended to remain
about constant or at least hgher.
But the decrease in depand has eX'
ceeded the decrease ig1the supply
hence the marked drop i1.the price OF
beef cattle at 67 of the largest caltle
markets of the United States during
the past eight months.
Total receipts for first eight months
If 1921 we're 12,223,3S3 IS compared
Jackson County sentinel. (Gainesboro, Tenn.) 1914-current, 1921-11-24

with 13,S70,900 during the first eight
months of 1920. This is Il decrease
Of 1,647 COZ. or 11.9 per cent. Stocker
and feeder shipments from stock
yards amounted to 1745,06S for the
first eight months of 1921 as compar-
ed with 2,200794 for the same period
IN 1920.
A detailed study of the receipts OF
cattle at the 81 leading markets of
the United States shows that the re
ceipts of beef cattle for each of the
first eight months of this year have
been smaller than the receipts during
the corresponding months of 1920.
These figures are rather interesting
when we consider the tendency to
market cattle early this season, due
30 financial condition of farmers
which have caused them TO sell early
10 meet loans at tho banks, and the
dry weather which has cut the pas
lures short in many sections, One inn
portant factor which helped bring
about decreased receipts at the mark
OF has been the shortage Of cattle In
the northwestern states. such as Ore
gon, Wyoming, Idaho, Utah, Montana
and the Dakotas, due to forced liqui-
dation of cattle In the drought Of
t91S19 and the severe winter of
1920 and the financial stringency.
This shortage ranges from 10 to as
high as 40 per cent in these states
according to good authority. The de-
cline in prices of cattle from the high
prices of early 1918 has naturally
caused decrease in cattle production
On an average throughout the country.
Another reason for the decreased cat
lie receipts at the markets is that Of
the emergency tariff placed on cattle
hon Canada. Last year Canada
shipped into this country three hun
dred thousand head Of beef cattle,
while this year the receipts from that
country Will no doubt be very small
swing to the emergency tariff.
Factors influencing Demand For Beef
Some of the factors influencing the
demand for beef are unemployment,
reduced rates. decreased exports,

DAIRY COW IS
GREAT SOIL BUILDER
Proper Saving and Using
of Manure Determines
Value.

The value and importance Of the dal-
~ COW as soil builder can hardly be
over.estimated and the proper saving
and using of the manure is the princi'
pal factor which determines whether
or not the dairy farm grows richer OF
poorer, says c. A. Hutton, dairy spe-
cialist. Division Of Extension. Pract-
cally all of the fertility contained in
manure dropped in the barnyard and
around creeks and other watering
places is lost. Where manure is piled
under the caves of the barn or in I'm.
protected heaps In the barnyard, enOr'
nous losses occur from fermentation,
teaching and washing away.
In order TO receive the greatest val
ue from manure 1t must be protected
from rain and spread on the soil as
quickly as possible after 1t Is made
A very shallow, covered, concrete pit,
into which the'wagon or spreader can
be driven for loading is all that is
necessary. A good manure pit can be
built for a few dollars, and every
dairy farm should have one. Plenty
of bedding should be used to absorb
all urine, and the manure from the
dairy barn should be placed In the pit
when 1t is not possible to haul 1t to
the field and spread daily. If the
cows are dehorned and plenty of barn
room is available they may be allow
ed to run lGoSe in HE barn or coNc;e
shed. Where at least rs square feet
of floor space Is allowed for each COW
and plenty of bedding is used the
cows can be kept clean with less la
Dor than when kept In stalls. In this
system the manure Ia allowed to &C
cumulate In the barn until such time
as is convenient for spreading on the
land and 1t is preserved with the least
possible waste, since all the urine is
absorbed, and the tramping prevents
loss of ammonia, or nitrogen, by ex-
clusion Of air. Where this system is
used the hay and coarse roughage
are fed In the "loose-cow" barn or
covered shed, while the silage and
grain are fed In separate milking
barn. This system of handling the
herd and caring for the manure is
we'll liked wherever II has been tried.
Dairy cows should be kept In the
barn when not In the field. Much ma
nure will thus be saved and the cows
will be protected from the cold winds
and rains. They will give more milk
for the same amount of feed consum-
ed than they will IL exposed to bad
weather. Manure Is one of the most
valuable by-products Of the dairy
herd, and too little consideration is
given to its care and use on the aver
ae dairy farm.
The dairy COW brings in a steady,
cash income throughout the year; she
returns the greatest amount Of human
food for the same amount of feed
consumed of all animals known to
man: she is a safe and profitable In
vestment and great soil builder.
Let's keep more and better dairy
cows and take better care Of the ma
nure. Make the necessary arrange.
ments for caring for manure before
the winter months arrive.
