generation of cattle raised should be
better than the preceding one. This
can be accomplished by selecting the
best heifer calves each year to take
the place of barren, shy-breedng, and
old cows, and buying better bull each
two or three years. All other calves
produced may be sold either as wean-
lings at six or eight months old, as
finished as baby beef at sixteen to
twenty months. or as fat steers at an
older age. The system employed
depends largely upon the pasture
and feed available, transportation costs,
and the market price of milk and
cattle.
The systems of handling beef-breed-
practiced are "beef," "baby beef" and
"dual-purpose." In the first two sys.
TENS calves run with their dams un.
til weaned, the cows not being MIXED.
They differ in that cows intended for
producing calves for baby beef gen
orally receive better care because Their
calves are to be fattened shortly after
weaving, which makes 1t necessary to
give them good start on milk
The straight beef system Is primarily
adapted to the range country of the
West and South, which Is too rough
dry, or sandy for cultivation. Where
the climate permits, pasture is de-
pended on the year round. Some cot.
tOnsed cake may be used during I'm.
usually bad weather or periods of feed
shortage. Where snow covers the
range a part of the year, hay Is put
up for winter feeding. Little grain Is
fed, except where grain sorghums car
be grown. From southern ranges the
cattle are usually sold as stockey at
every age from weaving time to ma
turity. Recently many fat calves have
been going to the slaughterhouses.
From the North and West large part
Of the cattle go to market grass-fat
as three-year-olds.
Baby-beef production Is a highly
specialized business and is adapted to
regions where there Is q plentiful sup
ply Of fattening feeds together with
good pasture for the summer main
tenance of the breeding herd and nurs
ing calves. The corn belt Is the best
place for this system, but II Is prac-
ticed to some extent In other places.
When to Finish Baby Beef.
If spring calves are to be finished as
baby beeves, they should be taught to
eat grain before they are weaned.
They should 60 into the dry lot ut the
end Of the pasture season and be ready
for market by June or July. II possible
they should have good pasture for
couple of weeks inter weaving. Fall
born calves should be kept on grain
when they IRE turned on pasture In the
spring. The quantity of grain should
ne gradually increased throughout the
summer and fall so that they will De

weeks before. Corn was selling
around IS or Is cents, corn as good
as that which had brought 81 a year
or two before. But the things
which Walter Morgan was buying to
feed and clothe his family had not
gone down in proportion
They had fallen off, perhaps, 10
to 20 per cent. The price of the
things he raised and sold had been
cut in fifth or sixth.
Can't Even Pay Off Help.
He needed S14S to pay off his
corn huskers. 1t would take from
500 to 800 bushels to pay the bill,
at the prevailing price; whereas a
short time before rs bushels would
suffice He did not have the money.
Nothing doing" was the answer
of the banker when a loan of $14S
was requested.
"All right, then" said Walter
Morgan, in sheer despair. I'm
through. Take the corn. I'm done"
He had almost reached the door,
when the banker called him back.
The loan was made. But Walters
heart was no longer in his work.
He knew that the end had come.
1t was through no fault of his. For
some reason the bottom had
dropped out of everything; the
world was no longer dependent
upon the farmer.
On Dec. %, 1921, closing-out
sale was held on the farm leased
and worked by Walter Morgan for
the past four years. There were
few bidders; mainly men represent
ing creditors and handful of stolid
neighbors, wondering when the
same scene would be re-enacted on
their places
The cows for which Walter Nor
gan had paid 500 were sold that
day for s35 to $4S head He had
5000 bushels of corn. The day was
not far past when it would have
brought him $4,000. 1t went for
S2,40O, at so cents a bushel. His
oats went at 25 cents. The calves
brought $50 head; better than he
had expected, with dull heart

pounee on the rest. There was not
enough to go around.
When Walter Morgan took that
2s0-acre Iowa farm in 1917 he was
worth $4,000, earned by hard work
When he quit the farm Dec. 20,
1921. he had lost everything and
was $4.237 in debt. These are ac-
tual figures.
The banker charged off 81 ,237 TO
profit and loss on account of Walter
Morgan the next day. There is no
hope of ever recovering anything
on it. And Walter Morgan had
worked hard-harder than ever be-
fore in all his 40 years of life.
And his wife had worked. And
the Riddles had helped. And they
had prayed.
That night a I0-word telegram
went out from the little town where
Walter Morgan had traded for four
years. 1t was addressed to his
father, on the old home farm, down
in Missouri. Il read:
