There is no making of good baby beef without good feeding from the start. The young calf starts out with the habit of putting on fat. Usually this is lost and tho habit does not again return till the steer has reached maturity and stops growing In size. That Is what has brought us into the habit of waiting for steers to mature before attempting to fatton them. Baby beef must be made by the process of so feeding that the animal will put on fat as it goes along and so at half the age of tho ordinary steer is fit fof the market. It will thus be seen that the feeding must be excellent and that no untoward accident must be allowed to come in to change the course of events. One such untoward circum stance is cold quarters in winter, with dampness and bad ventilation. No ar tificial heat is necessary, but the quar ters In which baby beef is being grown should be sunny and well ventilated. The pure air only can supply the oxy gen the animal needs in performing the functions necessary to growth. It is usual to dispose of baby beef at from 12 to 18 months of age, at which time the weights will run from 800 to 1,200 pounds. Cattle a Farm Should Carry. There Is such a thing as overstock ing a farm and there is such a thing as understocking it The amount of cattle a farm should carry will de pend on the amount of rough feed that can bo or Is produced. Enough cattle should be kept to consume all tho roughage, and anything short of this is less than the farm should carry. Cattle are tho means by which we take the grass, straw and cornstalks and change them into meat and milk. The number of cattle a farm should carry will depend in addition on the arrangements for taking care of them. It would hardly be wise to keep a largo number of cattle If there was no provision for finishing them on grain when the proper time of doing so arrives. We beliovo it is true that in the main more of our farms are understocked than overstocked. The pastures are frequently overstocked and so are the great western ranges, but most of our farms could carry much more stock than they do, if proper arrangements were made. The man that follows mixed farm ing can grow crops and feed them on his own farm, thus sending off the farm only the things that take least of the fertility. Too little attention Is paid to the matter of the quality of the dairy bull. Needs Them In His Business.
