_ ING BEEF CATTLE

(BY E. S. Archibald, Dominion Ex-

In his address on beef raising bc-

foro thc Short Course students, Mr. Archibald advised that in districts where this industry was suitable, tc select large, roomy Shorthorn cows, that would give a fair amount of milk. ns well as produce a good bccl steer. and when once a man had mado a start to grade up his herd, hi should stick to one breed, and oni only. Onc of the chief causes of fail ure in the production of good bee cattle in Canada, has been the mik ing of the breeds. He advised a mai to grade up steadily, always using L pure bi-ed sire of good beef type, thai was offspring of s fair milking cow. He pointed out very carefully thai it docs not pay to feed small, under sized steers. Dairy steers, it is true rnake_ gains equal to beef animals but when killed it was found that they lacked in the valuable cuts, thai

A little of this migh be put into the milk pail after th little animal was through drinkin; his milk. This practice would ge them to take quite a hit of the grain and at the same time prevent then' from looking for something to suck a habit which often became chronif and ruincd the calf. This mllturi was very palatable and gave very good results. Meal should not lv boiled, as it generally makes it lesf digestible.
