DON'T BREED TO A SCRUB SIRE. — O YOl' WISH, Mr. Farmer, to Improve the quality of your stock this year, or are you satisfied with the kind you raised last year? In the latter case, we are not writing to you at all; but If yon do wish to raise better animals this year, we have a very Im portant message for you. And hen* It la: IK)X*T BREED TO SCRUB OR GRADE STRES THIS SPRING? Just so long ns yon do you may expect the same old kind of colts and mixes and pigs. Whenever you begin breeding for a definite purpose you may expect better animals of all kinds— and not until then. We know that In many Instance* It will mean a little more ex pense and some extra trouble to mate the mare, the cow, or the sow with • pure bred animal of quality; but It will pay. In 19 raaea out of 20 It will make a difference that any man will be forced to recognize. We presume you want profits from your work; then remem ber that the man who moves along the lines of least resistence doe* not make the profit. The easiest way Is seldom the paying way. The extra profit that will put you ahead comes only from extra effort. And nowhere will extra effort pay you bet ter than in the Improvement of your live stock. Tills la the year to make the change. Don't have a colt, a calf, a lamb, a pig come to your farm this year with the mark [of an unfit sire upon It. Vou can't Improve your lire stock while you breed to scrub sires. of bit com s. H It the greatest aid to Intelligent and successful breed ing Oar* In Feeding Young Cows. No man can start breeding dairy cattle right unless he understands the feeding of dairy cattle. Tho ex cellence of our dairy breeds Is prob ably as much due to feeding as breeding. t The good dairy cow must be a large consumer of feeds, but If through careless or Ignorant feeding, she It taught while young to contort feed Into fat sho forms a habit w hich will be a permanent Injury to her dairy qualities. Dairy cattle should be grown on milk, grass, silage aud legume bays Of these they should haro an abundance. With these tho -a — I a .. ,1.1.. Is a small Kent. While receiving skimmed milk a llltlo corn and whoat bran may bo fed. but afterward a llltlo of that cheapest of all Southern food*, cottonseed meal, Is all the con centrate* needed. The Or»t step In the breeding of tlalrjr rattle Is to kill the acrub and grade hnlla. The second is to diapoae of all cow s that will not pnalure 300 pounds of butter in a year. And the third Is to feed the young stock, to the limit of their power* to consume grass, ensilage and legume hay a. I’oaauta ud Boy Henna Make Cheap Pork. !■ Bulletin No. IT. just published, the Oeorgta Experiment Station gives the reeulta of some pig-feeding ex periments. Fear lots of pigs weigh ing 71 to 10 pounds wero fed for 79 days, the first lot on corn and shorta for II days and corn only for 48 days, the second lot on corn and skim milk, the third on corn and soy beans, the fourth on uorn and pea nuts. The oorn was valued at 94 ceuts per bushel, the shorts at fl.87 per 100 pounds, and the skim milk at 20 cents per 100 pounds. The cost of an acre of soy beans was estimat ed at 92.38, and that of an acre of pwanuta at 9111. In arriving at the cost of thee* erope It was estimated that each would be worth $11 to the succeeding crop. To make a pound of gain on the n~si lot eest 9.1c.; on the second lot. *».Rc.; on the third lot, 6.6c., and on the fourth, 4.9e. The average dally gain per pig was .71 pound lor the corn and shorts pigs; .96 pound for the corn and skim milk lot; .7 pound for the corn and soy bean lot, and .9 pound for the corn and peanut lot It Is stated that the soy beans scarcely had a fair showing, as there »»i not a full crop, and none of the beans fed were well developed. In any case, the necessity of forage crops for making cheap pork la once more demonstrated. * “THK FARMER'S BEST FRIEND.” H»w to Keep It on the Farm and Constantly Add to tho Returns From Farm Work. Messrs. Editors: I bought a Gal loway spreader last February. It was shipped on thirty days trial, and having tried it, 1 found 1 could not utuiiitge my manure without it. It does the work splendidly. Wet, dry, or hard lump.*), ate put mil an u. i\. It does just w hut Galloway says it will do. Since 1 bought my spreader I car ry my manure from the stables to tho fitdd, put my macuine m go., and around 1 go. Then back to the stables for more manure and come n ifu I it After seeing the contrast In the grow lug crops the farmer who owns a machine aunts to come and go us many times us he possibly can. I just begin to realise me loss have sustained in the old method of bundling manure, such as compost ing, re-composting, and piling stable manuro up under shelter, all flre fauged and almost worthless. 1 do hope the time will come a heu ae farmers will consider the very best methods in handling our manures. If ae consider and are con vinced, let us put It in practice for (lie suke of worn-out farms. For several years I have been decreas ing my guuno bills and Increasing my home-raised manures. Some on< may think I am cranky after readinj my plans. For my corn, hay, pea vines, cottonseed, etc., I am no hunting for a buyer to sell direct but when I make an indirect deal ir THE BUSINESS MAN'S CREAM SEPARATOR The DE LAVAL is the business men's Cream Separator1, and the men who use cream separators as a business use the DE LAVAL. Ten years ago there were a doaen differ ent makes of creamery or factory separa tors in use. Today over 98 per cent of the world's creameries use DE LAVAL sepa rators alone, and no effort is longer made to sell any other kind. It means a difference of several thous and dollars a year whether a DE LAVAL or some other make of separator is used in a creamery. Exactly the same differences exist, on a smaller scale, in the use of farm ■ separators. But the farm user doesn't I know it. Nine times out of ten he can't 9 tell when he is wasting 150. or $100. a year I In quantity and quality of product through H the use of an inferior separator. ■ But every fa m user of a separator ■ knows that If it is absolutely necessary to I use a DE LAVAL separator with the milk I of a creameiy it must pay relatively well ■ to do so on the farm. No amount of arsru H ment can get around that conclusion. I The De Laval Separator Co. ■ 1S6-«»7 BAOAOWAV Wt-1T» WIUIAM BT. NSW YORK MONTRCAl J§ 4S t.
