. Saturday, march 37f 1909. THE DESERET PARMER 9 H 1 - . y endowed with a small surplus as the result of keeping the herd of cat tle in question. , On the other hand let us take this stimc herd of cattle into considera tion, with a manager who has a motive in view, one who is not satisfied with a small net earning but one whose ambition rests in taking the first step which leads to success, by securing his animals against all forms of dis ease. He is not contended with a yearly settlement but at once investi gates the merits of each animal, con sidering as the most important factor their physical condition, thus estab lishing a foundation for success. Each animal is tuberculin tested; all' reacting animals arc disposed ol ' and in this way he has insured his herd against the disease known as tuberculosis, but of what consequence would this be if other forms of disease were existing? Previous experience has taught him tjt that there is a disease known as con ) tagious abortion whose character is ' .of such an infectious nature as to ren der whole herds profitless. Fully understanding the symptoms of abortion he docs not take chances for the development of same but ex ecutes his ambition in administering the proper preventative, thus in the end saving him loss which would have otherwise (been incurred and at the end of the ye:, insuring him that he has been success ul in establishing n healthy herd which are netting him a large surplus over and above expenditures.

"I have 25 acres Beet and Potato land in Rexburg and 160 acres Dry Farm, one mile from: town, all under first-class farming condition. I have raised from is to 20 tons of (beets and 20 to 40 bushels of grain per acre. I would like to lease for a term of years, provided I can sell my horses and implements, which are all in good condition. I want at least half cash down on the stock and implements. Good opportunity for some family to get a beginning in an agricultural country, second to none anywhere and where there are good opportuni ties to buy land at reasonable rates. Good educational town, the Rick's " . Academy being situated here. None but experienced1 party need apply." JAMES GILLESPIE, Rex burg, Idaho. THE NEW VETERINARY BILL. After repeated attempts to secure for this state a State Veterinarian, who wiil have charge of the inspect ion of the diseases of live stock in the state, success came in the passage of House bill No. 82, by Mr. J. R. Porter of Morgan, during the clos ing hours of the last Legislature. The bill iprovidcs that the State Veterin arian shall be connected with the Agricultural College, and he shall be selected by the Governor and the Board of Trustc-cs of the College. Half of his time is to be devoted to State work and half of his time to the work of the College. Mr. Porter spent a great deal of time during the Legislative session in securing the enactment of this bill, and we congratulate him and the peo ple of the State on the fact that Utah has at last fallen in line with other progressive commonwealths, and that we arc hereafter to have the protect ion that will be afforded by the crea tion of this office. o AMOUNT OF BROME GRASS TO FEED. A subscriber at Rigby Idaho, sends in an inquiry regarding the amount of Bromc Grass (Bromus Incrmis) to seed per acre on dry landt If seed is of good quality and sure to be cov ered, fifteen pounds per acre will ibe enough. Weeds arc very likely to thrive among the grass the first year, but the- arc sure to be driven out as soon as the grass gets a fair start. The same inquirer desires some in formation regarding the best variety of ibarlcy for dry land farming. From tests made at the various experiment al arid farms in this state, it is evdent that the variety called "California" gives best results, though there arc three varieties, California, California Prolific, and Success, each of which have given good yields on these dry farms. For three years the Califor nia variety averaged 24.3 bushels per acre, while one year on the Juab farm it averaged 34.9 bushels. It is prob able that a small quantity of this seed can be obtained from Mr. Ste phen Boswell, foreman of the dry farm at Nephi. D TRADE IN YOUR B I INFERIOR SEPARATORS I M 15,000 American users of poor or worn-out separators M H B traded them in last year on account of new m H DE LAVAL CREAM SEPAIATOIS WM and there arc doubtless many more owners of such ma Klfl IH m chines who will be glad to know that while such old ma M H H chines have no actual value the DE LAVAL Company con H H tinues to make liberal "trade" allowances for them because m H H of the opportunity such exchanges afford for the most prac- H H IV tical illustration possible of the difference between good pU H I and poor separators and putting a stop to the sale of others HI H like them in the same neighborhood. Nobody is injured M H H through the rc-salc of these old machines as they arc simply m H H broken-up and "scraped" for their old metal value. H H Then there arc many thousands of DE LAVAL users BH H 9 who should know that they may exchange their out-of-date LI H H machines of from 10 to 25 years ago for the much improved, H H H closer skimming, easier running and larger capacity ma- M H Hj today. fl H H Write in a description of your old machine name, size and HH H BB serial number or sqc your DE LAVAL agent.
