o THe BEAUMONT ENTERPRISE WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER it. i LIVE STOCK Tha International Exposition. I Tha International Llvo Stock Expo sition will bo liuM at tho Union Stork. yurJu from November SiC to December Srt. Till importance of this exposi tion to the live ttock Interests of liotn tliu Untied Rial en and tho nomlnloo tl Canada cat. hardly bo overestimate ed. Tiio wri'r baa haen told by Can ellrtis If. many of thn Btock breed er on that ulilu of tho lino make more it-lo ovo- this show than do tho Amer ican thvmnelvcH. This, It to, In o licriwo tae Canadians appreciate the value of education In the matters rf )'v atoch raltiliiK. They ronlizo that tho exposition Ih on InHtructor In the mutter of breeding stork, an well at of feeding atoclt. It makci It pnssiul'j for live atock raisers from nil pnrta of the country and of tho continent to meet each other and compare notes. Not only tlilH. hut It shows tho live atock raised In tho different sections f tho country and undor different modes of treatment. Next to the Cuimdlans, ihe people of the North west show perhaps tho greatest Inter est In this pent, for they reallre that live stock mixing Is to be the great Industry of their part of the countrr or, at least, i sort of cornorstono of .tprlcnltiiro there. Tho cost of attend :'iik tho exposition Is not great, and a week spent In nttendanco on tho show Is ono of tho best paying weeks that a man nan record In his summary of "ihe yenr's work. The pulso or tho wholo II vo stock Industry is folt hero, iind truths are Impressed on the vis itor that bo gets in co othor way. if The Feed of tho Cow. 1 There are few of our farmers that follow tho praeMco of feeding slops to thn cows, as Is tho case In tho towns (mil cities where cows have little pas turage. Nevertheless mnny of our cows have neeoss to woods and oCVt herbage that taints tho milk In one way or another. Somo say tho flavor FMt'H through the cow and others say that it Is blown to tho milk on milk inir. Hut In whatever way It comes 1. In found In tho milk at milking time and Inter In tho buttor. Tho cows that have to depend on dry pastures at this time of year are tho ones that aro most apt to eat foul-smelling weeds. If they have fresh cornstalks or other cut feed thoy will not trou Mo tho weeds. Hut most of our farm rows are given no attention of this liincl and simply have to make their living from tho pastures the best they Suny. Wild onions havo an oil that certainly passes through the cow into the milk and tho samo Is said to be tho caso with wild garlic, if this Is so regarding these two weeds that cows eat, may It not be bo with some of the other weeds they eat, of which we know less than of theso two. Tl'.' weedy tusto In milk Is very obnoxious to some of tho consumers of wllk. If the fanner has nut-.Hhecp enough to keep tho weeds out of tho pasture It will pay to attack them with a scyMio. Future Sheep Supply. The feeders of sheep aro concerned in tho supply of that animal, especial ly those thut are engaged In tho feud ing of sheep for the final market. At tho present time tho great source of supply Is tho western raugo. Hut cr.i: that continue, to supply tho demand for sheep to feud in our feed lots In the coin belt? The answer must be a negative one. The ranges aro now producing all tho sheep they : re likely to produce, but the corn belt Is not proi'.i.Tlng nil the corn it is able to produve. Tho Improveni'-nts In corn cult in e nnd In corn seed enormously increase tho volunio of this kind ' food that can bo produced yearly and we slrill seo greater improvements In the ytars to come. This corn must bo for a long time yet used as tho finish ing food for stock including tho sheep. More sheep will bo demanded in the future both by the consumers Biid by tho finishers. It is evident that we must ralso mnro sheep on tho farms east of the Great Father of Waters. Irish Creameries Increasing. Tho number of creameries In Ire land is rapidly lncresliig. Ihe In ;rcase is among both the proletary and the co-operative. Of the former hero are now sou and of th luttrr 2'"'. Last year these COit creameries received over eighty million gallons of milk and produced over foil teen thousand tnrls of butter. Most of this found a rc-iiiy market in various part of Great llritnln. The quality of the butter from these creameries i-hows a tendency to improve In qi Ulty. whii h ll must do, as It Is brought into sharp competition with the luller nun Ih innsrk and from Canada, fctfti of which makes are lil;h in qmi4y These rreanii rles make tho pn.-A.T tion of I r i - ii ba'on easy, and this Bi- a huh reputation in tho English msr LtL The Sheep Pasture.

'. -a. -Jii a. ICrFI Mil Soft Bacon. If wo ar to maintain and devoVp our trado in bacon with Great Hrluln It U of the greatest importance that we pay strict attention to quality. Not only must our hogs be bred to give . tho desired conformation, but they must bo foil and niannged In such a ; way as to give tho doalred c.uallty. one of thn greatest defects In quality with which our packers havo to contend Is i a tendency of somo sides to turn soft j during the process of curing. Soft ncsa has cothlng to do with fatness; io fact, a thin aide la mnro opt to de velop softness than a fat ono. In a soft nldo, the fat is soft and spongy; and sometimes even tho lean Is affect ed. There nro all degrees of softness) up to a moro slight tenderness; but any degroo of tenderness detracts very much from the value of a side, and a really aoft sldo Is practically worth less. Tho percentage of soft shies Is Bomctlmos very high, even ns high as 40 per cent of tho total at certnln sea sons of tho year. It will, therefore, be easily understood that such a condi tion represents an enormous shrink age In value; and this loss Is hound t.i be reflected In tho prices paid tho farmer for Ills hogs, to aav nothing of the Injury to tho reputation of our ha con In Great Ilrltaln. This Is not a mntter, thereforo, which affects mero ly tho packer. It affects the baron Industry as a whole, and the farmer, sooner or later, must shoulder the loss. It Is Important, thoroforo, t'.iat the farmer should pay particular at tention to the question of quality. Ontario Station. The Kerry Cow. Tho Kerry cow Is being written about quite extennlvely In our foreign exchuuges, and It Is not improhablo thnt she Is among the breeds that will some tlmo bo known In this country. Whether sho possesses any points that would udnpt her to snmo particular re gions of this country Is a matter of conjecture. Perhaps in some of our more mountainous districts In th south and in the far west she ir.'iqhi supply a demand for u dairy cow that is poorly supplied at tho present time. Tho cow iia9 already csmimed consid erable lmpon'ouo ?n England on ac count of being small in slzo and being also ablo to thrive on poor short pas ture. Evidently sho has been devel oped under hard conditions. Some of her English friends claim for bcr that she will give more milk and butter ac cording to her weight and on poor pas turage t.hi.n any other breed of cattlo on the same kind of pasturage. On ihe other hand, the use of good pas turago seems to be against tho Kerry cow, ns she at once begins to take on flcEh and shrink In her milk. One man oays that the Kerry will live nnd do well where a Jersey cow would starve. She Is paid tov possess ono quality that certainly Is not comraon-j with cows and that Is the ability to regain her milk How when It htu been shrunk for months from poor feed. This Is a point In her favor, if It can bo established. The Kerry Is Bald to be very hardy and to bo able to pass tho Irish winter without shelter. Soclllty of Pure-Bred Hogs. It Is a great volnt In favor of pure bred hogs that they are moro docile than tho othors and less liable to run about. Tho fonclr.j of them is a com paratively easy matter whero tho fencing of the othors was a herculean sk. Thin point should bo of Itself sufficient reason for th farmer to pay little moro money and get puro hreds when be has tho choice of buy ing them or of purchasing others of tho mongrel sort with roving and rest less p.ocllvltioH. It la not a pleasant thlni; to have hogs always breaking out of tho yards and pastures and hav ing to hunt them up in the highway or tho neighbors' vegetable garden. The the common sorts are hard to drlvo and it is nrt easy matter to return Uum to their pens and yards onco they have broken out. The quieter iiiIiiihIs aro moro valunblo for food, . their muscles are tenderor. More over the quiet ones make better llso uf their tood and will make moro pounds of gain per hundred pound of h-ed than the other. The breeders of p-irc bred awino ar constantly select irg though unconsciously. In the di rection of greater docility and tract ability. Tho Interests of the brooders of pure bred win nd of tho farn-ors lit- along the sat fine. Dairy Associations. Most of our agricultural assi.
