ether extotiNlon forces. The demon
StratorH Kliowed how to remove horns
with clippers ami saws, and with the
Hoe of caustic sodn and caustic potash
to prevent the growth of horns on
calves. Dehorning chutes, for holding
attle while being tit-horned, were also
instructed by the demonstrators, who
emphasized the Importance of using
them instead of resorting to audi prac
tices as throwing the animals with
ropes, tying them to fences or similar
n.ethods which are unsatisfactory. In
a number of cases farmers were per
mitted to dehorn one or two animals
1o become familiar with the operation.
The method of dehorning depends la
ch case upon the nice of the cattle,
f-joclaljsts of the department say.
Xtemonstratlons with young calves
flowed how the growth of horns can
t prevented by properly applying
austlc soda or caustic potash. Older
wives and other cattle were dehorned
either with the saw or clippers. While
rllppers remove the horn more quick
ly and with less pain to the animal,
Hie saw has the advantage of not
crushing the horn, especially In the
case of old animals whose horns are
ard and brittle. Neither does the
mw cause as much bleeding, since by
lacerating the blood vessels Vt causes
a clot of blood to form quickly.
MO PLACE FOR SCRUB STOCK
Animal le Wasteful ef Feed and Own.
ere Leber Pure-Breda Are
Worth Mere te Keep.
Prepared by the United Slates Depart
ment ef Agriculture.)
S nib live stock is no longer fit for
I erpetuation In the United States. A
tomb la wasteful of feed and wasteful
e-f Ita owneVs labor. The scrub animal
bat served Its purpose aa a connecting
link between the old obsolete method
.f farming and new progressive nietb
cds. Thousands of farmers In this
country already have discarded acrub
stock and are better off because of
that decision. Pure-breds are worth
more to keep and are worth more to
tell. The scrub animal has been use
ful as a connecting link, but our aim
from now on should be to make the
fcrub extinct and to make It the nils
lug link so far as live stock Is con
cerned. That cannot be done Immedi
ately, but It Is the goal toward which
we should work.
FEEDING SILAGE TO HORSES
Limited Quantity May Be Given If
Care Is Exercised Cannot Con
sume Large Amount.
Silage may be fed to horses In II ra
ited quantity if care Is exercised, but
a horse cannot .consume the large
quantities of roughage used by the
teer or cow, and the amount of silage
given to horses on full feed must be
very limited.
Livestock
INOTES
More beef cattle might be raised
profitably on many farm.
Heavy feeding does not always pro
fiuce proportionate gains.
Coruiueal, boiled potatoes and but
termilk make a splendid ration for the
growing pigs.
e e
The first requisites in raising stock
la a good feeder, let aa aay, a Judtdotu
feeder, and a well-born calf.
