Carefully Prepared Wool
Receives Better Prices

Care in the preparation of wool
for market is one of the best ways
American sheepmen can increase
their profits whether they run range
bands or raise farm focks in the
opinion of C. R. Townsend of the
University of Nevada agricultural
extension service.
"Since wool is bought and sold on
clean basis, the shrink and man.
ner in which the feeces are sheared
and packed remains an important
factor in determining the value per
grease pound the producer will re-
ceive," Townsend states.
Sheep, of course, should be shorn
only when feeces are dry he says,
and should be protected from mois-
ture at all times while awaiting
shipment.
"a board floor, kept clean, is the
best surface upon which to shear"
Townsend added. ga dirty floor or
Uttered ground will result in the
wool's picking up foreign sub
stances, thus decreasing it's value.
Straw, hay, and chaff are particu-
larly Objectionable.
''Wool should be cut close, and the
fleece removed unbroken.
"Sheep should be tagged before
the shearing operation, and tags
should be sacked separately.
cite each individual fleece with
good paper Irvine, rolled with flesh
side out; this will result in a much
better and more attractive appear
ance of the fleece.
'All bury, seedy, black, gray,
dead, and cotted wool should be
sacked separately from clean white
wool. Yearling or lamb wool should
also be sacked separately, since it
is much lighter shrinking than that
of the main band, is generally sold
separately as original bag woods,
and commands higher prices"

SOW TESTING
IMPROVES HERD
Permits Systematic Culling
Of Low Producers.
BY H. G. ZAVORAL

BY III. G. ZAVORAL
Extension Animal Husbandman, University
Farm, st. Paul.
Swine raisers are realizing that
the perfect individual animal is only
one of the foundation stones of a
good hog business. Getting more
pigs per SOW and getting quick,
cheap gains from these pigs is
equally important. That is why SOW
testing is becoming as much a part
of the successful swine business as
butterfat testing has been in dairy
ing.
Sow testing is not difficult. 1t
can be carried out by the hog raiser
himself if he will take the trouble.
The procedure is this:
l.. Mark all the sows before far
rowing so that they can be identified
in records.
2. Within week after narrowing,
mark the pigs with ear notches, so
that each litter can be distinguished.
At the same time a record should be
set up for each litter, giving sire,
dam, and number of pigs of each
sex.
3. Each litter of pigs should be
weighed separately at weaving time
Csc days is the customary age for
making this comparison). The weight
of itters at Sc days is in itself a
very accurate basis for judging the
production of sows, although the hog
man can carry his records further
by getting separate weights on lit
ters at market time.
Having compiled production rec
ords on all his sows for the season,
the hog raiser is then in a position
Cd to Gull out the old sows that did
not produce well, and (2) to select
gifts from the best litters to keep
over.
For the breeder of purebred stock,
the records assume extra impor-
lance in determining the value of
boars. Already in many commune
ties, boars from tested herds are
commanding premium prices.

she said, "standing around making
an impression on each other"
He turned from the window, and
she was laughing at him as he had
thought, her mouth smothered with
her fingers.
'Come here minute" he said,
going toward her.
She twisted from the edge of the
table, as if to put it between them,
but she was too late. His rope-hard
fingers caught her wrist, and held
her as easily as if he had dallied
a calf to the horn.
LISTEN" he begged her. "Lis-
ten"
He caught her up, clamped an
arm behind her head, and kissed
her hard. Hard, and for a long
time.
So long as she was rigid in his
arms, fighting him, he held her F;
but when she stood limp, neither
yielding nor resisting, his arms re-
Taxed, and Jody tore herself free.
She dashed out at him like a little
mustang, striking him across the
mouth. Her face was white, all that
quick, irrepressible laughter gone,
as for a moment she looked at him.
A trickle of blood ran from Bill
Roper's lips, and made a crooked
mark on his chin. Then she turned
and fled.
When she was gone Bill Roper
stood still, sucking his cut lips. After
little while he went to the Win
dow, instinctively turning to open
space for his answers.
He could remember Jody Gordon
as a little tow-headed kid, before her
hair had darkened into the elusive
misty brown that it was now. Or as
colt-legged girl with scratches on
her shins from riding bare-legged
through the sage. Or as a peculiar
ly tempestuous, uncertain thing, nei-
Their child nor woman. But this
latest phase he couldn't understand
at all.
He picked up his hat, and for lit
tie while stood turning it in his
hands. Then he threw it in the
corner, and went searching through
the house.
Jody was in the tallest of the four
foolish towers. From here you could
see the town, and the slim, glitter
ing line of the railroad, connecting
these far plainsmen with a world
hungry for beef.
Jody said matter-of-factly, "We've
got to have more loading pens, Bill. "
Bills face broke into slow grin.
Abruptly he laid hard hands on dis
used sashes, and broke them open.

In frozen food locker, if temper
atures rise above zero, odors may

Nearly one-half of the 1000, 900
American youths between 16 and "a

All eggs produced by any one hen
tend to be of similar size, shape,
color, though they may vary some
what.
A recent study shows that 10 COWS
producing 300 pounds of fat annual
ly make as much profit as 10 200
pound producers.
When cows eat bitter weeds the
milk has an Objectionable odor and
taste.
Norway is reported to be feeding
woodpulp to cattle for fodder with
herring and fish meal added to give
the essentials of albumen, vitamins,
and minerals.
When a COW or a calf lies down
stubbornly and will not lead, try
holding it's nostrils tightly. This
usually will bring the animal to its
feet in short order.
