have attended all for the past few
years.

STRETCHY TYPE OF HOG BEST
FOR MARKETING PURPOSES
MORE MILK AND MONEY FROM
CONTRASTING ASSOCIATIONS

That cows on which production
Citations give more milk and turn in a
bigger profit than untested COWS, was
recently shown by the United States
department of agriculture in publish
ing the figures of 12O sets of records
for 96 cow-testing associations.
The average annual milk production
of 21,234 cow-testing association cows
was GOT pounds, and the average
butterfat production 24S pounds.
These figures are about so per cent
above the estimated averages Of all the
dairy cows in the United States.
Cows having high production aver
aged high in income above feed cost
regardless of breed, age, weight, date
of freshening, and geographical loca-
tion.
The COWS having an average milk
production of $3.50 pounds gave an
average income of $42.25 over cost Of
feed, while the cows having an average
milk production of 1880 pounds
turned in an average income of $21S.19
over cost of feed. The average pro-
duction per COW in the latter group
was about four times as great, but the
| average income over cost Of feed was
nearly seven times as great as in the
other group.
"Cow-testing association records take
| much Of the guesswOrk out Of dairy
ing" says NJ. II. Keeney, dairy special
list at the state college Of agriculture.
CONFORMATION indicates performance;
but the Babcock tests, the milk scales
and the feed scales prove it. knowing
| the true feed and production records,
the good dairyman can practice seec-
| tive breeding, eliminate all low pro-
| ducers that will not respond to better
| feed and care, and feed the remainder
according to their known production.
"The elimination Of low producers
is important, but it is not the only
work OF the cow-testing association.
The Well-managed cow-testing associa-
tion saves many cows because it fur
nishes their actual records Of produc-
tion. 1t discouragcs the use of the
scoop-shovel method Of feeding grain.
Through the weighing and testing of
milk it let's the farmer know which are
the high testers and persistent mixers.
Careful Weighing and testing of the
milk has caused many an intelligent
dairyman to say: The cow thought
was the poorest turned out to be one
of the best in the herd'."

ALFALFA CROP OF MANY USES
Leads az Forage; Unsurpassed as
Hay; Has High Carrying
Capacity as Pasture.

No forage crop cultivated in the
limited States is used successfully in
so many ways as alfalfa. 1t is more
nearly a perfect forage than any other
GOD grown in this country. 1t is un-
surpassed as hay for general feeding
and has high carrying capacity as
pasture. With proper handling good
results can be obtaiLe1 with it as a
soiling crop. 1t makes excellent
silace and when ground into meal is
a good and easily handled feed. AL
falfa is so highly regarded as forage
that some persons have attempted to
create a demand for it as human food
Enthusiasts have tried to show that

MISTAKE WITH BEEF CATTLE
Manv Producers Handle Cows in Same
Manner as Hiqh-P reducing
Dairy Animals.

The function Of beef cattle Is to
convert cheap roughage into a prod
uct that can be utilized by man. Many
men entering the business of beef pro.
duction make the vital mistake OF
handling their beef cows in the same
manner that high-producing dairy
herd is managed, and, because they
fail to realize profit, condemn the
beef business generally. The same
thing would happen. however, to the
dairy business If dairy herds were SUBJ
tected to the conditions necessary for
profitable beef production. The only
difference is that few dairy herds are
ever placed under these conditions.
In managing herd of beet cattle,
the overhead expense in the form of
labor equipment and concentrated
feeds must be kept at minimum IT a
substantial profit is to be realized.

No Longer Any Demand for the Short
Compact Type as Vegetable Oils
Replace Animal Fat.

The fat or lard type of hog with
great compactness Of form and short
ness of limb has recently passed out
OF popular favor among American hog
raisers, feeders, and packers who are
looking for the more "stretchy' kind
Of hog approaching the bacon type,
according to Il. J. Thompson, professor
of animal husbandry at the North Da-
kota Agricultural College.
zone reason for this change is that
vegetable oils are coming to take the
place of animal fat to great extent
and the excessively fat hog is not in
such demand as it has been in the past.
People do not like too much fat in
their meat and the choice bacon and
cannot be obtained from the old lard
type hog" said Nh. Thompson.
Another reason for the change is the
fact that in the competition of pork
production the hog that can rustic
and get portion of his feed direct
from the field is most profitable for
his owner. Farmers have found that
the very compact hog is too clumsy to
compete with the more lengthy hog in
foragng. The "stretchy" hog can get
around better and has more room for
digestive and vital organs.
Fecundity is also lacking in the
very compact type. This type lacks
room to carry good litter and is
lacking i'll quantity and quality of
milk to nurse the young. They have
not the ability to move about without
danger of crushing the young pigs.
In England and Canada the bacon
hog has always been practically the
only kind raised. The compact type
was developed in America to suit the
conditions of the corn belt and is
known in other countries as the Am
erican type
Modern methods of agriculture de-
mand the elimination of much costly
labor, SO the hog of today and tomor-
row must do much foraging in corn,
alfalfa and sweet clover pastures, and
must be built with substantial bone,
long legs, great length of body, good
depth Of body, and strongly muscled.
Farmers in most principal hog
raising localities have made the change
In type of hogs but it is noticeable
fact that most North Dakota farmers
still select hogs for the old compact
lard type because they are unaware of
the change in type demanded by the
packers and the advantages to them
selves of raising the new type" said
Mr.. Thompson.

North Dakota Apple Trees Thrive

"One Anoka apple tree which was
two years old this spring produced 26
good apples and another the same age
produced 49," said A. f. Yeager horti-
culturiSt at the A. c., in discussing
some promising varieties of apples for
North Dakota.
The Anoka, an apple of South Da-
k0ta origin. has given better results
than any other of the large varieties
OF apples. 1t is unusual, Mr.. Yeager
says, for an apple tree to bear apples
at two years Of age.
Experiments now in progress at the
college experiment station are cen
tered on developing hardy varieties of
fruits suited to North Dakota. Selec-
tions from hardy varieties, cross
breeding, and similar work have al
ready yielded encouraging results, ac-
cording to Mr.. Yeager. Plums, rasp-
berries, apples, and other fruits are
being used in the work. Horticulture
lists predict that varieties spiendidly
suited to North Dakota conditions will
be developed in this state.
