Tho question a beef cattlo man "should ask hmsolf Is not "Can 1 afford to uso a good purebred bull?" but "Can I afford not to uso ono?" this year. Of tho twenty-threo million dairy cows in tho United States only a small per cent return a profit to their owners at tho ond of each year, ac cording to tho University of Nebr aska Agricultural Collogo. Thero Is ono cow In tho world with an official record of over 37,000 pounds of milk produced In ono year, or an average of over 12 gallons a day for 3G5 days. Thero aro hundreds of cows that have produced under official supervision ovor 20,000 pounds of milk In a year or an average of over 7 gallons per day. Thero arc thousands of cows that produco at least half this a mount, yet thero aro millions of cows that aro consuming as much feed and roquiro as much labor and attention as thoso that are producing 10,000 pounds of milk or less a year, but yiold only nbout 5,000 pounds of milk. In a report from Wisconsin to the Department of Agriculture, photo graphs of tho registered Holstoln bull, Eggler Mercedes and four of his daughters are shown. These four daughters avoraged 82 lbs. of butter fat more than their dams. This Is an average of 35 per cent in ono gener ation that can bo credited to the bull. Eggler Mercedes was sold as beef for $160, and his former owners would consider him worth $2,000 if they had him back. Tho report asks, "Who will invent a workable system to keep these good bulls in a community?" A workable system, has already been in operation in this country since 1908. Tills sy stem is the co-oporativo bull associ ation and by means of it bulls are kept in a community until their value can bo recognized. Extension special ists and county extension agents of tho University of Nebraska Aglcul turnl College have organized several such associations. Boot cattle aro bred by few mon for pleasure most breeders arc do ing so for profit. Tho fact that beef cattlo raising has lately been a losing proposition does not mtfan that It will contlnuo to be so for any great longth of time Tho near futuro will witnoss greater returns for those pro ducing beef cattlo. Good beef cattle nro those meeting tho requirements of tho butcher, who is tho final Judge of nil block ani mals. Tho butcher wants a steer that Is lowdown, square, compact, fat and thick fleshod. Scrub sires rarely pro duco such animals, as thoy themselves do not hnvc these dharnotcristlcts. Our purebred beef slrus today aro tho products of centuries of Intelligent breeding for individuals, possessing lowdown,. compact, broad, thlck-flosh-cd bodies. To try to make money rais ing beef cattlo nt any time without using good purebred sires is a waste of time, says tho University of Ncbr. nska Agricultural -College. Scrub sires usually produce small rangy steers that aro thin fleshed ovor tho back and lokis. Wlillo tho good purebred sires produco steers that aro less rangy and with moro meat along tho back and loins where tho butcher wants it, as ho can soli this meat easily to those who. aro will ing to pay a premium for such cuts. How long and nt how many pounds pressuro sholild various meats bo cooked In tho pressuro cooker? According to tho University of Nob raska Ag7icultur.il College, this ques tion is not easily answered, for many factors influnco tho time of cooking. Among these aro tho weight, shape, and size of tho piece to be cooked, tho amount of bono it contains, and most important of all, whothor it is old and tough or young and tender. In gonornl, a large, thick piece of moat which is rather tough should e cooked about 15 mlnutosxto tho pound at 15 to 20 pounds pressure. Ono of tho most tender outs, however, such as n leg of lnmb, would roquiro only 10 minutes to tho pound at n pressure of 15 to 20 pounds. When meat is cut into small pieces 3 for stow, It does not mnko any dlfforenco in tho timo of cooking whothor tho amount of meat is 2 pounds or 7 pounds. At 15 to 20 pounds pressure, 30 to 50 minutes, depending upon tho tough ness of tho meat will bo long e nough to cook It. This applies also to chlckon cut into pieces before it is cooked. Over cooking Is nover desirable and should bo avoided when meat Is cook ed in tho proasuro cooker. Othor wiso flavor and juiciness aro suro to bo lost oven If tho moat docs not ac tually becomo hard and dry and nl- togthor undesirable. :o:- Ab a result of rather careful trials conducted turnout tho last 5 years in western Nebraska, tho University of Nebraska Agricultural College rec ommends tho use of good dry land grown seed potatoes that aro relative ly freo from disease in the irrigated sections in tho western part of the state and throuout eastern and contral Nobraska. Potatoes that -have been irrigated ono year have been found to bo worth approximately 10 less for seed purposes than dry land grown isced potatoes. Tho potatoes which havo been irrigated two years are frequently worth 20 to 40 less than good dry land grown seed poNtoM. In Scotts Bluff county in 1021 a num ber of growers planted a total of 8 carloads of western Nebraska dry land seed potatoes, 1 ctarloads of which wcro cortiilecV The growora estimated that they gained at least AO-AI7T A3 ETKA PAIR OF GLASSES FOR THE Havo you a good pair of glasnos fcr sport wear?
