V. GRBGORX, Agricultural 2Divi•rion, Iot.ra .Sate College Copyright, 1899. by American Press Association THD science of breeding is very complicated, but there are somo points that should be un- derstood and followed by ev- ery farmer. No matter how well stock may be fed and cared for, if they do not have the inherited capacity to transform their feed economically into milk or beef or power they will al- ways be "scrubs." On the outer band, poor feeding and care may make a scrub out of an animal which has the inherited ability to develop into some- thing much better. To attain the best results breeding, feeding and intelli- gent care must go hand in hand. Pure bred stock not only have the ehility to make much more prontabte use of the food given them, but they also add greatly to he appearance of :be place. A pasture dotted with well bred, uniform calves, colts or sheep marks the owner as a progressive farmer. There is a great deal more pleasure, too, in caring for good stock ban there is in vainly trying to get unprofitable animals into market con- lition. The first thing to consider in start- tng in with pure bred stock is what Flo, XXIA--THE WAY A. PAT BLITf AIT itAr• IsCUT UP. :Note the high prices of the ha,'k and loin.] breed to select. Do not make a hasty =hoft: e, for nothing wili `ruin your . hances of success more certainly than frequent changes from one breed to another. Select your breed with care and then stick to it. All the leading breeds have good points, and the mat- ter of selection Is more a question oat individual preference than anything else. 1n beginning with pure bred stock the best plan for the average farmer to follow is to purchase a pure bred male of the desired breed and proceed to grade up his herd. There are two, principles of breeding that should be' kept in mind In this work. The first is the old law that "like produces dike." In the main this law holds good, and, other things being equal, the offspring will resemble the parents. The second Is the law of "atavism," or the tend- ency of the offspring to take after some remote ancestor. This is where the value of the pure bred sire comes in. His ancestors for generations have been animals of the same type as him- self, and hence there is little chance of his progeny differing from this type to any serious extent. This long con- tinued breeding along a certain line gives to the pure bred animal an abil- ity to reproduce his type that the grade sire lacks. This ability is Balled prepotency. Because of his great prepotency a pure bred bull when mated to grade cows has mach more influence over the characters of his offspring than the mothers have. This is most striking- ly sbown when a polled ball is mated to horned cows. Nine out of every ten of the calves will usually be polled. It is the same with other characteris- tics -the ability to quickly turn corn into high priced beef or to use the feed for profitable milk and butter produc- tion. Of course if the cows are pure bred also there Is less chance of the cages resembling some inferior • ancestor on their mother's side, and improvement will be more rapid and certain. The cost of an entire herd of pure breds is very great, however, and profits will come more surely by the grading up pian. After this has been carried on for a time, so that the farmer has some experience in breeding and car- ing for high class stock, a gradual start in pare bred females may be made by buying a cow and calf or a few yearling heifers. As the offspring of these increase the member oe pure breds in the herd the grades can grad- ually be disposed of until an entire pure bled herd finally results. In the selection of a sire to begin grading tap a herd it is important that he be of the type 'which It Is desired to reproduce in the olfspring. The most important things to look for is a beef bultare constitution, form, quality and thick fleshing. Of these constitution Ls probably the moat important, fie a bull that is strong in this point will have the ability to Aire a large num- ber' of rugged, healthy wives.

The back and hind quarters of a beef animal are the parts that produce the high priced meat, Great width all along the back, especially over the loin; good spring of rib, plenty of depth and short legs are points that should be looked for. Long legged bulls are usually narrow and rangy. The legs are of little value as meat, so the shorter they are the better. Quality is shown by fineness of bair, pliability of hide and not too munh coarseness of shoulder, head and bone. An animal with good qual- ity will furnish a better grade of pleat, and there will be less waste in killing. Thickness of flesh is one of the most important points to look for. Sy this is meant not fat, but the nat- ural covering of lean meat. Fat can he put on during the feeding Period, lint lean meat cannot. An animal that is thickly muscled at the begin- ning of the feeding period will fur- nish a carcass that will be well mar- bled with streaks of fat and lean, while another on the same feed will put most of his fat on in the form of allow, These same points are the essential ones to look for in the selection of a ram or boar. Strong constitution, wide, deep, blocky form, fine quality t and thick fleshing are just as impor- tant in these animals as in the bull. t Of course It will be impossible to find an animal that is perfect in all points. If the females in your herd ere badly lacking in any particular be sure to select a male that is espe- cially strong there. On the other band, a slight weakness on the part of the sire in a place where the fe- males are especially strong may be overlooked. An animal that has any very serious faults, however, should not be considered for a moment. Daley bulls lack the fleshing and compactness that characterize beef animals. Low setness and extra width of back are not so essential. Constitution, as shown by a deep chest, wide on the bottom and a roomy barrel, is important. A clean head, smooth shoulder, fine limbs and pliable skin show the quality that is so necessary in a dairy animal. The most important point Is prepotency. A strong chest, masculine head and targe rudimentary teats are all indi- cations of this. The best way to fore- cast a dairy ball's prepotency, how- ever, Is to look up the milk and butter producing recortes of his dam and aranddams. A bull out of a high pro- ducing cow will almost certainly be- get heifers that will be high yielders. The most important points to look for in draft horses, which are the most profitable kind to raise on the farm, are power and endurance. Pow- er is indicated by size, compactness and heavy muscling, especially in the hind quartets. Endurance is shown by a strong constitution and fine qual- ity, especially of limbs. Strict observance of these points in the selection of a sire of any kind will give you an animal that will in a few years bring about a great improve- ment in your herd. Pedigree should not be neglected entirely in picking out a sire. Its chief value is in show- ing that the animal is pure bred and that his ancestors were of the type which yon wish to develop in your herd. To determine the latter point, however, requires a longer study of herd books than most farmers have time for. If you put the chief stress upon the individuality of the animal and file tete pedigree away in a drawer where it can be referred to when nec- essary you will not go far wrong.

Constipation is caused by the eating of indigestible food, irregular habits, the use of stimulants, spices and as- tringent food, and strong drastic pur- gatives which destroy the tone of the stomach and the contractile of the lower bowel; therefore, when the liver is in- active, and failing to secrete bile in sufficient quantity, constipation is sure to follow, and after constipation come piles, one of the most annoying troubles one Gan have.
