Feeding : Cuttlewith HORN.
Feeding steers profitably with" "
hogs following the cattle on the av

various conditions. All of us ku
that hogs are a large source of pr <
in beef-making and that they natura
go with cattle when fed on corn , ; i
especially so where the cattle are
years old and over and are fed shel
or ear corn.
In feeding steers 2 years old never
over without hogs the waste could
materially reduced by grinding
corn , and I have known of several 1
of cattle fed in this way without h <

were well sold.
Young steers under 18 months <
will carry along fewer hogs than ol <
cattle even if fed shelled corn , the

From my experience and obser

would feed young cattle , fattening a
marketing them to weigh from SOO

fed to them after they reached (
pounds. Of course there would be c <

The chief cause of Constipation and
Indigestion is a weakness of ths Muscles
that contract the Intestines and Bowels.
Cascarets are practically to the Bowel
Muscles what a Massage and Cold Bath
are to the Athletic Muscles.
They stimulate ths Bowel Muscles to
contract , expand , and squeszs ths Diges

They don't help ths Bowels and Liver In
such z way as to make thsm lean upon
similar assistance for the future.

may be lessened each succeeding Urns
