 The replies thus far received show that inferior breeding and poor feed ing are jointly responsible for nearly two-thrdS of the runts among live stock. and indicate that at least per cent of farm live stock is commonly in the runty class. Detailed data on the times when runtiness appears, financial losses caused by runty stock, methods of prevention, when it pays and when 1t does not pay to raise runty stock are now being prepared by the department for distribution to the public

CARE AND FEEDING OF STOCK
Vermont Live Stock Owner Says Cause Of Runts Is Due to Neglect Dur
 ina First Year.

In contributing his experiences on the cause of runty live stock in a re- cent inquiry conducted by the United States Department of Agriculture, a Vermont farmer urges greater care in the early life of domestic animals. When people can be educated to the proper care and feeding of stock" he declares. the runt will be practically wiped out. The reason, perhaps, why there are not so many runts in pure bred herds as in others Is because the man who cares what kind of stock he keeps cares enough to care for them better" He concludes that one of the principal factors in the cause of runty live stock is the man who has the care of them the first year,
