C'l-IOOSING STOCKERS.
The prospects of continuing high
prices for beef will influence many
young farmers to feed crops to cat-
tle, and they can lay a food founda-
tion for future profits by ibfelllgently
selecting their feeders.
The ability to select stockers and
feeders which have within them the
possibility pf making prime steers is
one of the first and most important)
lessons for the young stockman to
learn. |
Profits in steer-feeding come as
much from intelligent selection and
purchase as from skill in feeding and
management. The importance of in-I
teliigent selection and buying of
stnckers and feeders of good qualltyl
is realized when one considers the
fact that it is seldom possible to
produce, at a profit, gains which do
not increase the value per pound cf

Farm Life. They should possess
straight top and under lilies and
should be low at the flanks, forming
good depths and roomy barrels, but
not pouchy, The general form should
be low-set, deep, broad and com-
pact rather than high, gaunt,|
narrow and loosely-made. The
flanks should he low and legs short;
animals of this fsort almost in-
variably pass as strong constitutions
and are good feeders. lt shfluld be
remembered that the stocker and
feeder, thin in ilcshjand largely witn-
out. internal or surface fat, affords
the best possible opportunity of det-
ermining tbe coverings of natural

with low flesh, beingespecinlly care-
ful to avoid great prominence in
hips, tail, head and shoulders. Avoid
rough, open shoulders, sway bucks
and long, coarse heads with small
eyes; Short, broad heads and short,
thick necks, indicate tendencies to-
ward beef-making.
'A large prominent eye is to be de~
sired, as this denotes that the anim-
al has a quiet disposition, which all|
feeders know is so 'desirable in al
steer intended for the feed lot. The,
distance between the eycs and horn
should be short and the horn should
bc flat and of medium iineness. The
lower jew should be heavily coated
with muscle. The muzzle, lips and
mouth sho ld be large, but not
coarse. Thes desirable characteris-
tics of beef f rm, quality and con-i
stitution, should be discovered in
well-bred grades of uny of the Iced-
ing breeds. The _ young stockman
should give more attention to the
selection of the individual than to
the breed.

DOES RIOHNESS OF
CREAM AFFECT MOISTURE
Much has been said and written in
the dairy press and in our text
books on the effect of the richness
of the cream on,the moisture con-
tent of butter, and there appears to
considerable confusion as to the-real
importance of this one factor. The
average American butter-maker holds
that the richer thecream the more
water will there be in butter. The
Danish ,butter-maker, on the other
hand, claims that thin cream _tends
toward butter with higher moisture
than rich cream.
EFFECT OF RICHNESS
OF CREAM
Nineteen churniukl. Wi“f°I`» 17 PW"
cent. to 2! per cent. fat in cream,
18.47 per cent. moisture-
Ninerffen churnings, WiD£9r, 29 pe!
cent. to 30 per cent. fat in cream,
15.86 per cent. moisture.
Four churniugs, summer, 37 per
cent. to -18 per cent. fat in cream,
14.45 per cent. moisture.
Our own experimental results have
convinced us that this factor of rich-
ness of cream has no import-
ant bearing on the moisture
content of butter. and that
its effect, if there is any, is
indirect only. ln one series of exper-
iments made in summer, the butter
from the richer cream contained less
moisture, while in another series of
experiments, made in winter, the hut-
ter from the rich cream contained
more moisture. These findings sug-
gest that the moisture content of the
finished butter is effected by this
factor only in so far as it influences
the condition of the butter for the
working. Other conditions being
equal, the richness of the cream in-
fluences the length of time and ease
of churning. This in turn may, or
may not affect the firmness of the
butter granules, according to the
season of the year and temperature
of the churn room. In a cold churn
room the longer churning of thin
cream tends to make firm granules.
The firmness of the butter granules
ailects the amount of water in the
churn and the per cent. of water rc-
tained on the working process unless
the latter is controlled by the but-
ter maker. Firm butter mixes with
and holds water less readily than
soft butter.
- Attention is further called here to
the fact that there is n limit of low
temperature and thin‘cree.m that will
vfeiluse 141.00 results- It frequently
happens where thin cream is churned
at a very low temperature, that the
churning process is prolonged to such
an extent as to partly destroy the
,grain of the butter, making 9, selvy
body. In this condition the butter
tends to take up and retain excessive
moisture.
These findings also help to explain
why the results and opinions of dif-
ferent investigators nnd huttermak-
ers are at variance. It is evidence
that these contradictorv conclusions
were arrived at through the failure
of Qie .butter maker on both sides or
the Atlantic to take into careful con-
sideration all the conditions under
which their results were obtained.-

CULL THE OOWS.
Almost daily there comes to our
notice new cases where weighing
milk and testing cows has ‘saved dol-
lars to the dairymen. More particu-
larly is this true of the man not
specializing particularly in dairy
catt1e,, but keeping a few cows for
milk on 9. mixed farm. There are
thousands upon thousands of men
just so situated in Canada today,
and thousands of them are keeping,
one or more “boarder" cows which”
the fair or hlgh~prod clng cows in
the herd. Just weigl? the milk from
each cow for a while, and determine
whether or not it is -going to prove
profitable to keep some of the
"strippers" over winter. Their car-
casses are worth a good price this
them and fill their places with milk-
ers.

ercise, and will give him the privil-
ege of association with other hurled,
writes a stallion owner in .'l‘he,Nor’-
West Farmer. It will do away with
the solitary confinement and ireegu-
lar attention of which he is other-
wise the recipient.
If under ordinary conditions, at the
close of the breeding season, a stal-
lion is pressed into regular service
and accustomed to work gradually.
he will be the better for it in the
end. Association with other horses
will then come to he a regulefoccur-
icuce, und the obnoxious actions so
common to stallions in harness will
become less frequent. '
If conditions are such that a. stal-
lion cannot be worked, a large pad-
dock offers the next. best opportunity
for exercise. 'l‘he difficulty encoun-
tered in such s method is that hors-
es. particularly drafters, will not
take enough exercise of their own free
will.
Oats should constitute the basis of
the grain ration for stallions. The
efficiency of the grain may, in many,
cases, be increased by the addition
of one-fifth or one-sixth bran. Roots
of various sorts ure palatable and
succulent and often improve the stal-
1ion's allowance. Barley has been
vcry successfully used as a part of
the grain ration. Some complaint
has been made against the use of lin-
sccd meal, and the writer would not
advise its use, except in limited qua-
ntities. Good sound bats with a
small portion of bran make the belt
to $25; Ontario bran, $22, 'in begs;
shorts, $24; middliugs, $24.

Aifcnlicn fo Horses Teefll
There are many horses of all ages
that arc not thriving Well, although
consuming a reasonable amount of
food, and their owners are at a lose
to account for it, and often spend
money in conditioifpowclers, stock
food, etc., without result, The ani-
mals do not show symptoms of ill-
ness. but simply do not thrive, and
have not thc spirits or energy they
should have. The cause in the mn-
.iority of cuscs, will be found in the
mouth, either there is faulty denti-
t.ion or there are irregularities ofthe
teeth. The subjects do not require
medical treatment all that is needed
is intelligent attention tothe teeth.
We any “intelligent attention" as in
many cases unskilled or ignorant in-
terference does much more harm than
good. It requires a man who thor-
oughly understands ths anatomy of
the mouth, and has the necessary in-
struments aud skill to correct what-
ever is wrong.
