Extracts from the Report of the
Department of Agriculture,
Upon the Numbers and Values of Fariu
Animals for January auil February 1SS6.
The return* of the number of liaises
indicate an interest in horse-breeding
of late, which i* due to the steady dr
maud for serviceable animals for draff
purposes and for the farm and road.
A gradual improvement is noted by 'be
introduction of famous breeds of Euro
pean draft horses, especially the Nor
man and Percheron. and to a consider
able extent the English Shin-horse
and the Clydesdale. It is evident
that the every day walking h ose
of Anu-i tea is to be a heavier ami st i ong
er animal than lots been seen hen-to
fore, and that the exportation of liai
ses may in the future conduce to the
stability of prices and the profit of
breeding.
Almost every State makes some in
crease. Most of the Atlantic Stales
allow an increase of about 1 per cent .
as well its Louisiana, Texa*. and 1 ! 1 i
nois ; New Turk find Virginia, 2; mid
about the same rate in Arkansas, Ten
nessee, West Virginia. Ohio, Miehieun
and Wisconsin. The States of the
Mias ouri Valley, with rapid advances
in settlement and population, show a
much larger rate; Nebraska, an in
crease of 10 per cent., and Dakota of
13. T iiere is also a considerable ad
vance on the Pacific coast. Theie Inis
been a large increase in the Rocky
Mountain region, as horse ranches ate
becoming numerous and prolitable.
The total increase in tile United States
as estimated, aggregates 310,083,
The number <d mules lias not ad
▼anced faster than population, but th>
increase is distributed with swine irieg
ularity, being greatest in the States
ami Territories between the Mi-sissip
pi and the Rocky Mountains. The ag
gregite increase i* placed at 80,0-1.
The number of cows has decreased
somewhat in Vermont, New York, and
Ohio, on account of low prices of dairy
products. Elsewhere there has gener
ally been advance with increase of pop
nlation, while there lias been incu-ase
more or less marked in the dairy States
of the West. In the South the increase
is general though small. In the'aggre
gate a showing of 330.606 more cows
than last year is made.
Coming to sheep, it must be observ
ed that sheep husbandry is in a period
of deeper depression than any other uni
mal industry of the country. The re
suits of this inquiry manifest a loss of
about two million sheep. It is esti
m*ted that Pennsylvania has lost in
one year a fifth of her flocks, or neatly
three hundred thousand sheep. The
loss is the more serious, as it.falls main
ly on a region peculiarly adapted by
Hs grasses and irregularities of surface
for sheep farming, which has long stood
in the fore front of improvement in
wool growing. The decline is nlmust
universal east of the Mississippi.
In swine there has been a small in
crease in the record, dne rather to a
better enumeration of the stock ef
the rapidly developing regions of the
Missouri Valley rather tliau to actual
increase. In most of the older States
there is noticed a small reduction ; for
two years past the supply per capita is
less than formerly. The reduction in
values, to which the falling off in ex
ports contributes, tends somewhat to
this decline in numbers.
The decline in horses, mules, and cat
tie has been in progress two years. In
sheep and swine it was noticed i n the
January report of 1884. The extent of
the reduction is greater iu this return
than in that of a year ago. It averages
only about 3 per cent in horses and
males. It is about 8 per cent in cattle,
11 per cent, in sheep, and 15 per cent,
in swine.
Last year the aggregate decline in to
tal values was small; the present Valu
atiou is $91,266,121 less than last year,
notwithstanding increase in nambers
of horses and cattle. The grand ag
gregate is $2,365,159,862, against
$2,428,425,983 a year ago, showing a
reduced valuation of nearly 4 per cent.
There is a small aggregate gain, how
ever, in horses and mules. The rcduc
tioc in values of milch cows amounts
to $22,917,570 ; $32,426,039 in all other
cattle; $15,516,783 in sheep; and
$29,831,789 in swine.
While d umbers have increased, ex
cept of sheep, in two years past the ng
gregate valuation of fat iu animals is
less by something over $100 000,000.
It is not improbable, from piesent nidi
cations, that some improvement in val
lies may occur duriug tbe coming year,
though great changes in this diuctiou!
should not be expected. While fluctu
ati ms ate inevitable depression follow
ed by elevation, there is tome reason
to suppose that lower levels of valtta
tion will obtain than in the pa-t two do
cades.
Parker's Tome kept in a home is
a sentinel to keep sickness out.
Used discreetly, it keens the blood
pine, ami the stomach liver and
kidneys in working order. Coughs
and colds vanish before it. It
builds up the health No wise
mother will be without it.
