A well-selected breed of pure-bred for attle is a source of much pleasure as she well as profit, but to be successful do corn tails must not be overlooked. Many wou breeders and beginners are too care less. They keep no accurate records tlon of births, neglect their cattle, fall to pDi keep up the records, do not take prop ly a or care of their cattle in winter, and clat4 are often caught with a lot of surplus and Mnmerchantable bulls on hand and lowe -o buyers. Let me add that the only tfed way to dispose of surplus stock is by dcltdoes advertisting in some good ply farm and stock paper, says a wrfter whe in an exchange. Keep your herd in nice, healthy con- M dition, so you will not be ashamed to thre show your stock to prospective buyers. witi Make a yearly exhibit at a few leading mOt state and county fairs and present bre your stock in the most attractive fn T at home, as well as at the fairs In de- will scrlblng your sale stock to prospectij doU gam old. dwi this tan 0 A Pure-tred Herew ord bers . b maett or otoherwbe, nesrer overestimate the mferit of your soi thma a ke good every statement, and m sa very buyer aripplyend.

(By J. W. INGRAM) Sows should be retained for a num ber of years until their places can be filled with their equals. It is well known that the progeny from mature parents are superior to those descended from young progeni tors not fully developed. Boars and sows for breeding should be kept in a good thrifty condition but not fat. The writer has always been trou bled to keep his breeding sows from becoming too fat and consequently farrowing a small number of scrawny pigs. I once took a large sow to fatten for one-half the pork. I did not know she was with pig and fed her dl the corn meal and wheat middlings she would eat. Imagine my astonishment and vu tion when she had three little dwarfed pigs-not only smaller than pip g ly are when first farrowed, but dciated. Sows for breeding should . lowed to run with the fatt fed on corn but kept in a themselves and given a pl ply of slop made of eq wheat shorts, corn meal bran. Most young sows will three months old if allowed to-rsM with a boar, but eight or anelw months is as young as is breed them. -* The pigs from large-bodied, Q1 uss will be more in number aind double the sise of pigs sows when farrowed, and - same teed and cpre and ly weigh 50 per cent moh it aearS old. Not only this, but It stislg dwarfs the growth of. -seseiigs T things permanently and theb a~gs pla tan sood lse. sip the GOOD FEED-RACK FOR SHEEP W Grain Trough Placed seseath Sav Ch and Leaves, Most Nourlehing Part of Feed.

The amounts of nitrogen ausmi lated by the pea sad similar plants oa rather unfertile soils were frequently. so greatly out of proportion to the available supplies of nltrogen In these soils, that investigators had for i years sought to determine whether or not these plants possesed the power of assimilating the free nitroges of the atmosphere. The researches and experiments dt a number of German investigators, extending over a long period at years, have shown that leguminous plants an capable of takb lag up and assimilating the nitrogen of the ,atmosphere, and this property ,. is known to depend upon the pres ence of bacteria or minute micro. scope form life, whicdeh are eound t ia tutprcles or zer.xences occrriin quite profusely upon the roots of thrifty and vigorous plants, and s plants of this character.
