GOOD QUALITY SIRE
OF BIG IMPORTANCE
Influence Of Male Is Greater
Than That Of Female.
Figures Collected by Department Of
Agriculture Show Economy Of Be-
ginning Improvement With
Use of Purebred Sires.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Although the sire and the dam con-
tribute equally to the heredity of an
animal, the influence of the sire in a
herd or flock is much greater than any
one of the females because in practical
~ all cases a sire is the parent of a
much larger number of offspring than
the dam.
Figures kept by the United States
Department of Agriculture, represent
ing the proportion of males to females
on more than 5000 farms in As states,
show that the male has from IL to 30
times more influence than the female,
among all classes of animals, in de-
termining the character OF the Off
spring.
These ratios are based on more than
million head of breeding stock listed
with the department in the Better
Sires-Better Stock" campaign
The figures show that on the aver
age farm where purebred sires only
are kept, there is one bull to Is cows !;
one stallion to nearly 20 mares; one
boar to Is sows; one ram to nearly 80
ewes; one buck to 25 does; and one
rooster to q hens. These figures
show at once the economy of begin
ming improvement in animal breeding
with the use of purebred sires.
The history of the natioq-wide move
r. L
ever. that the use of purebred >fe-
males quickly follows the. use of pure
bred males. More than one-third Of
the female live stock and more than
two-thirds of the female poultry listed
In the better-sires campaign are them
selves purebreds. This promises much
more rapid improvement in the quality
Of the. country's live stock than if pure
bred sires alone were used.

MAKING HONEY FROM HUBAM
Iowa Specialist Says It is Of Excellent
Quality and Has Fine Color
and Body.

Hubam, the annual sweet clover de-
veioped at the Iowa experiment sta
ton, Is the best of the sweet clovers
for honey production, according to w.
A. jenkins, apiarist, OF Shenandoah, Ia.
He says that the honey made from HUI.
BAN is of excellent quality and has a
fine color and body.
Mr.. Jenkins planted some Hubam in
1921 and has found that it keeps
blooming from June until frost comes,
and that it gives bees something to
work on when other clover is gone.
Forty-four hives of bees owned by Mr..
Jenkins made a total of 1882 pounds
of honey from. Hubam clover during
the period from July 25 until the end
Of the season last year. During 1922
he got practically as good results.
