Improved broods and better animal husbandry oflei the soundest solution to the problem, says tho Nebraska College of Agricul ture, in fostering a campaign for tho uso of purebred sires only. . Corn costs tho same whether fed to pure ''feus or scrubs, hut thoro is a grout difference when tho animal is fin ishcd for thc market. Livestock profits aro tho resiilt Of good breed ing and good care. Tho average arm with equipment moans an investment of from 810,000 to $50,000. It is no longor profitable to grow high priced grain and 'feed it to low prnln .ti..!fc.

Youmr, County Agoul Mr. Orvillo Legg, of Dakota City, one of tho best Hampshire swine breeders in Nebraska, is offering a special prlzo of $10 to tho winner of the Hnmpshiro pig club in this coun ty. This makes a total of .110 to bo distributed in tho county. AH hoys and girls from 10 to 18 aro eli gible to join this club or that of nny other breed. Several of our sheep men arojilnn ning to put their wool in tho Stnto pool. It Is also very probable that s6mo wool from outsido tho county will bo sent hero to bo shipped with ours. Tho shipment will- likely bo mndo about Juno 10th. This method of handling wool netted Iowa farmers from 10 to 12 conts more por pound than was received by tho men who did not pool. Full particulars will be furnished on application to the Fnrm Bureau office, Frank Tomson, editor of "Short horn in America,"" says, "If all tho pui-ebrcd Shorthorns in tho United States . gathered together, thero would ( ., be two lie ad for every quarter i...ion in Iowa." If all the pedigreed cattlo in the United States were gathered together there would only be ten head for every quarter section in Iowa. Still many people are afraid that tho raising of pure bred cattle is being overdone. Some won't even use a pure-bred sire. Are you among that numW? If you uso nothing but purebred sires on your form let tho( Farm Uureau know and thoy will "present you with an emblem that is being used over the state.

At' present prices' of corn and oats each aro worth more than threo cents a pound.

These last feeds are bought forthoir protein contents, or to balance the. ration as wo generally say, Corn is very high in carbohydrates but low in protein. Protein is especially needed in tho ration of growing ani mals, as it is a musclo building ma terial. It is also needed to soma ex tent in fattening mature animals. Milk contains a largo amount of pro tein so that these concentrates sMouid at present prices form apart of tho grain rations fed to dairy cows. Corn contains .7.5 per cent pro tein; oats 9.7 per, cent iihtf shorts 12.5 per centj oil meal 31 per cent and tankngo or meat meal 00 per cent.
