\VaR \ a great demand for brnn. Yet

The above Is but an llIustrntion of
ho recldessnoss shown by many In
lho 1mylng of Coed.
'Vo heard of a man recently who ,
when oats were selling at about $20
( lor ton , ground thorn and fed them to
his dairy cows. ' That was certnlnly I
[ 111 absurd .thlng to do when protoln I
reeds In other forms could be bought ,
very much cheaper. The wise thIng
Cor him to have tlone would ho.vo been
to seU the oats antl put the money
Into other feeds , there Y saving sov.
eral dollars per ton on his oats In
adtlltlon to the cost of grinding.
H Is tntleed true that , ns sarno say ,
"a mon needs to have a IIbernl edu.
cation" to lenow just what feeds to
bu ; ) ' . nut It Is ulso true that the
farmer that expects to succeed In his
business In these days must malto
u study of his busIness to the same
extent as the city business man has
lo do. When farmers do that , the
sellers of feed will seIl what the
farmers really need to buy rather than
what w1ll malto the dealers the most
money. Deaiers In all kinds of goods
generally sen to the "Intelligent
trade" the things that have morlt , butte
to the "unlnte1llgent trado" they soIl
anything" that will yield n profit ,
wheqlel' It has merit or not.

The Dairy Laborer ,
In nn address to l\Ussollrl dairymen ,
Robt. Pothbrltlge said : Successful
dairying connot bo carried on where
labor Is short , or where the hired
help Is lacldng. In my travels I Hnd
this to bo D , grent complaint among
dairymen that they cannot get help ,
bllt I am slIro It Is mostly their own
fault , for I cnn name many successful
doh'ymen who have no dlfficuIt.y In
that line , hecnuse they IIro treated In
II proper and business IlIw mannoI' ,
911Ch as filit. wages , reglliar h lU's and
liberal trelltmcnt. Ho must compare
the 'eluh'y help with the clt . laborer
In wages ; they will vary In different
parts of the country In hOllrs of la.
bor : the cU ) ' man has Ills 10 hours
Jally IInd pay for overtime , \\'hereas
the cmntry man as a rille worles
longer hOllrs and no pay for oVCl'time.
This Is one of the great objoctlons
of the munVorllng on the farm , for
I have known b ) ' experIence thut

Will Prlcc of Beef Advance ?
Some of our beef maleers exvreSR
the bellor that beef w1ll , twenty.fivo
years hen co , be muoh higher tha at
the present tlmo. 1\101'0 than that ,
th07 assert that the general average
IIrlco for beet tlurlng the twenty.fivo
years to como \\111 bo very much
higher than tJurlng the twenty.five
years just past. Wo are nfraltl that
thIs w1ll prove true. It certainly w1ll
unless wo fintl some way of foetllng
beeves moro economlcaly In the future
than In the past. It Is deslrablo that !
the 1 > eolllo have an abuntlanco of meat
food , antI they cannot got an abul1'
tlance of meat food unless It Is cheap.
Let not the beef maltOr Imaglno that
he will bo the gainer by a greatly in.
creased prlco of beef In the future. It
beef becomes high , It will bo because
the cost of protluclng It has become
great. In the domain of beef maldng
there Is stIlI open competition , and
there probably will bo Cor a bood
many yenrs to come.
nut that the price must ndvanco

of our marlcct cattle are beIng pro.
duced on hlgh.prlccd lantI. On such
lands It Is becomlnJ ; every year a
greater problem how to so feed beeves
as to make money out of them.
There are a gootI many farmers a1'
ways going out of beef raisIng because
they have become dlscourl1getl at try.

maleo beet on hlgh.prlced land. 'Ev.

Fcedlng Unhusked Corn.
Farmers hnve been feeding a reat
deal of corn In the bundle and a good
many ncres , perhaps 10 per cent of
the whole crop , Is stIlI In the field
frozen down. After being forced by
the carly and violent winter to sus.
pend husking and then from necessity
feeding the machine harvested corn ,
In the buntlle , farmers have found
that It Is not a. bad way and many
will plnn to feed a considerable part
at the crop hereafter In this way.
IIusldng corn In the present condition
of the help question Is expenslvo
business , an 'wu ) ' . It Is not meely that
Carmers have found the best , most
economical way to handle the corn
crop for husking by machinery , but
many who have used the method
have recltoned that It has cost them
G to 10 cents per bushel to complete
the work. This Is too large a part of
the value of the crop to give for huslc.
Ing. I am fattening 21 steers by feed.
Inl silage ( made from well.matured
COI'1l ) once , clover ha ' once , and corn
bundles at night. 'fhey have done

Localijting Sheep Raising.

statistics of sheep population state
b ) " stnte. There Is at the present tlmo
no Incl'easo of sheep In any of the
slates east of the l\Ussisslppl river ,
though the population In that region
18 constantly on the Increase. No In.
erease In numbers of sheep means a
compa1' tlve decrease , us the supply
Is not Iteeplng paeo with the Incroas.
Ing demuntl. nut wo do find the
stutes along the foothills of the
Rocleles showing larger populations
of sheep every ) 'enl' . Were the range
there unboundetI , wo might loole tor a

that the limit of sheep population
there has been about reached. Ev.

DurIng the winter months the heatI ,

become possessed of sufficient farm

llead of the famll ' , but every intll. , I
vIdual member of It.
Having before me the lenowletlgo

well for him to obtain all Informa.

and as lIearlr as It can be ascer.

the past summer a numtJer of the od- j

estIng reading. l\lr. II. E. Heath , ed- . j
Her of the "Nobmska Farmer , " a
paper enjoying a wldo clrculutlon as
well as the conl1dence of Its sub.
scrlbers , after giving some Idea oC I
the extent of this wonderful country I
Ba's :
"Western Canada Is the last un. t
occupied and unimproved good agrl.
cultural land In America avallablo
today. "
He then discusses Its possibilities

"What-has been said about the coun-

To quote further trom Mr. Heath ,
he saye , referring to climate :
"These people ( sleepUcal ones ) do
not Iwow or realize tho.t altltudo
more than latltutle makes cl1mates ;
that large bodies of water , both fresh
and salt , that , novel' freeze over , exert -
ert a wonderful Influence on climate.
Another Inl1uence on cllmato , more
potent than t lOse named above.
which applies morc to the Alberta
district , Is the warm Chinook breeze
trom the Pacific ocean , which Is 600
or 700 mUes nearer than Colorado or
Wyoming. besides the Hocky Moun.
taln range Is not nearly so high nor
halt so far from the ocean as It Is
down In the States.
"In further con'slderlng the climate
of the Canadian prairies , we should
not lese sight or the tact of the In.
fluence of the raIns ; the total average -
age ralnCall for the season Is but 13.35
Incho'3 for the territorIes , and 17.34
Inches In ManItoba , and that the
amounts Calling between AlrU 1st and
October 1st are respectively 9.39
Inch s and 12.87 Inches or about threo-
fourths or the on tire rainfall. From
the middle of June to the middle or
July there arc over two hours more \ , f .

reason why Western Cannda. . wheat

of solar light , 01' longer period of sunshine -

ThIs extraol'dlnary rarJld growth or

"We do not wish It understood that
