u Youth In Its Golden Prime. A calf under a year old took tba eh:- pionship in the ladlTldaal steer Jam at the last International lire stock bow. A few years ago only the steer of mt u.l weight would bare figured anu.iig the possibilities in such a con te. ; -B::b.v beef" has become fa miliar phrase. The "light hog" has pu ..d It way to the front "Hothouse lai " Is no longer a great rarity. T'.iis rising feeling for the things of yo ill. the striking off Into a new path In limal production, may at first ap pear just a turn of the wheel of change, be behind the seeming fancy of the producers is solid reason. With the br niug up of the ranges the small farmers are tackling the meat produc In. --Dpos tion with vigor in the east and south as well as the west, and In ai: : it appears to be proved that the gains in weight are made at the least expense on the young animal. t cotch fashions, too, are now popu lar in beef circles, and Justly, for the Be tch farmers are notable feeders of animals for beef. From the standpoint of -luility and flavor Scotch fed beef holds a leading position In the most cr . c"al meat markets of the world. Scotch breeders of beef cattle encour age ? oung stock to develop early ma turing qualities, particularly in Aberdeen-Angus and Shorthorn districts. As these breeds are bred almost en tirely for beef production the tendency to take on flesh rapidly and mature at an early age Is regarded as the most Important point to be considered. Champion Young Angus. ' The cut, original in the Breeder's Gazette, Chicago, shows the champion yearling steer Andy, an Aberdeen-Angus, exhibited by the Minnesota col lege at the last international live stock how. Concerning the display of the Aberdeen-Angus at that time the Ga- CHAMFION YEABIiINO STKEB. zette remarked that, whether the long line of two-year-olds Is considered or the yearlings or the rare lot of calves, there was a fleshiness apparent in all, a maximum of beef and a minimum of waste, that presented ready explanation . of the favor in which the breed finds itself among the buyers for slaughter. Best Breed For Baby Beef, Why do we breed Aberdeen-Angus cattle? A firm of Delaware breeders have explained their reasons for so doing as follows in Rural New Yorker: We first began cattle breeding with registered Holsteius, but at the same time we put in the pasture one Angus bull and heifer and through the grass season gave no grain or feed of any kind. When we took them in for win ter our llolsteins were thin and poor, while the two Angus were fat and in fine shape for beef. We did not desire to go in the dairy business, as the ex tra work would interfere with our oth er work, but we did desire to keep cattle, for we must have manure to improve the soil. We found we could keep about two Angus to one Ilolstein on the same acreage and have them in good beef shape almost any time In the year. We decided this was the breed we needed, disposed of our Hoi steins and settled down on the Aber-deen-Angns. the best breed of baby beef cattle in the world, we believe. We nrc breeding them for stock to sell for breediug purposes' to be used either in pure bred herds or for grading up to a blsh standard the common cattle. We ulso find many dairymen who sell their calves for veal consider it profit able to use an Angus bull, as it will add abwt $3 profit on every veal calf at eight weeks old, no matter how small or common the cow. The small est Jersey cow will bring a calf worth f5 mere if sired by an Angus bull. A Live Stock Center. It is rumored that an attempt will be made to make Worcester, Mass., a center for the sale of New England cattle. According to New England Homestead, C. W. Wood, a large cattle breeder, says there are today within a radius of fifty miles of Worcester fully 1,600 head of Ilolstein cattle, and he Would favor Worcester as a central dealing point for breeders. J. B. Mar con, an extensive breeder, is quoted to the effect that Worcester is the best place to hold live stock sales in New England, where something of this char acter is sadly needed as an Impetus In improving live stock. Many of the farmers are too poor to buy the best in competition with the wealthy farm ers of central New York and the mid dle west. Curing the Tongue Twister. ' When a young horse persists In get ting his tongue over the bit take a piece of sole leather seven inches long, cut it diamond shape so the center will be two and a half Inches wide have the saddler stiff 'a it tight around a com mon bar bit. with points of leather ex tending up over the tongue, and yon will not be troubled, long about the ihorse gettirt his-tongue over the bit It is impos lbrc- to buckle a bit high enough in c horse's mouth to prevent this Uahit when once fonri&d, for I think that is all it is. M? ' rjBrantner in Breeder's Gazette, Chlcaga KONEY WITH SHstEP. Cray sf Plump, Scum! Lmh Tenet Bring Long Price. TbU to bow we bare made the most money with sheep on Woodland Form: The ewes hare been selected for their mnirinff properties, and have been bred early to good mutton rams of the short legged, early maturing type. They have had the ran of the pasture all winter and a good warm shed or barn basement to run in at night They bare been watched, so that when their lambs came, if it happened to be cold, they have been given attention. Small pens bare been provided them in which Iamb and mother might be placed for a day or two while they bare been getting acquainted with each other, especially if we happened -to be busy. Their mothers have been well fed and not overfed. They hare been fed on the right kind of food. That means something cheap and home raised and full of milk. That means alfalfa hay, of coarse. Well, these ewes, eating alfalfa hay, with a very little grain, are fall of milk, and the Iambs thrive from the start The sur plus of milk is taken away by band right at first so that they will not suf fer from engorgement Starting the Lambs. Soon they are plump, playful little rascals and wishing something to nib ble with their own teeth. Then they are Inducted Into their own special apartment where, right close to their mothers, they find troughs filled with grain with oats and corn and clean, fresh bran, and with little racks of fresh alfalfa or red clover hay. These troughs are cleaned out every day and the surplus Is given to the mothers. Thus they thrive like weeds until grass comes In the spring. When grass first comes they are kept shut away from It until after It getsstrong and sweet Then they are turned out and the grain is fed out of doors. Sometimes we have made the fattest lambs on grass, throwlLj ear corn out on It as we would to the pigs. Of course, we have to fence a corner where the lambs can get the grain and the ewes cannot We like to put out rollers In the creeps, so that the lambs may squeeze through and . not hurt themselves, and pretty soon the shorn ewes are nearly aa small as their lambs. i Selling the Lambs. Managed In this way,, we have sold our crop of lambs in three lots. One In April, and they averaged eighty pounds and brought a long price; the younger ones going again In May, and weighed above eighty pounds, and the very latest and the culls went in June, and they also averaged above eighty pounds and also brought good price. W. B. Wing In Farm and Fireside. THE SHEPHERD. When fed In large flocks the sheep should be driven from the feed yard during the time the racks .are being filled; this will overcome the tendency to overcrowding and prevent injury to the sheep from the wagon and team. The quantity of silage to be fed should be governed largely by the appetite of the flock, but it is not usually ad visable to feed over three pounds per head daily. For sheep weighing 125 pounds about 2.5 pounds of silage and 1.5 pounds of hay will be ample; and if one-half pound of grain or bran be fed slightly less hay will sufllce. If grain Is fed it is not a proper plan to mix it with coarse feed, as the sheep are inclined to root out and waste this feed in their efforts to get the grain. In Western Oregon. Sheep husbandry in western Oregon Is conducted on lines that would be a revelation to many farmers. In the matter of pasture, land Is plowed and sown to wheat about Oct. 1, and, in a normal season, by the following Feb ruary a luxuriant pasture will be fur nished for the ewes and lambs or for fattening sheep. It Gives Vital Tone. The effect of salt on the health of the sheep is not generally understood. Its effect is to give tone to the organ Ism. The ash of the blood of a healthy sheep contains about '60 per cent salt, and the ash of urine 33 per cent. The scarcity of such an important constituent in the blood means a re laxation of vital energy. Lambs For Early Market. Corn meal is an excellent feed for young lambs that are to be fattened quickly. After this comes bran. Lin seed meal may be fed in small quanti ties. The Sheep's Foot. Don't neglect to trim off any over growth of the horny part of the foot Manure and filth will accumulate and trouble likely follow later. While ex amining the feet don't fail to have sharp shears at hand to trim off the tag locks that are an annoyance to the sheep and mean a loss of wool. Hog Cholera. So far as I am able to learn, the farmers in our state as well as the farmers in other states have not as yet secured any remedy which will cure hog cholera, says Professor Wj J. Kennedy of Iowa in Rural New York er. Personally I do not think vthat such a thing exists as a remedy which will, cure without fall all cases of hog cholera. We have had a little experi ence on the College farm with hog cholera, and we always used preven tive measures to overcome the same. I think that when hog cholera is in the neighborhood It Is a very wise policy for every farmer who owns hogs to use disinfectants very freely. He should' divide up his hogs into small lots and feed them on rations of a thin, sloppy order. ' Skim milk is very good at this time or a thin slop made of water and wheat shorts. By all means avoid the heavy feeding of corn. HUNTING THE WALRUS. The CUMrae ef the MeraJ Are She. ff Rest Killed With Axes. , - Whalers begun to turn their at tention to valroa catching about the year 1868. During the first part of every season there is but little opportunity to capture whales, they being within the limits of the icy barrier. As a result much of the whalers' time during July and Au gust was devoted to capturing wal- ruses. ' ! Men would be landed on the Alas- . fca shore in June and left to watch for the aimftla to haul up on the 9 beach at certain points. According - to the government reports, the wal rus must either come ashore or get on the ice to sleep. When a herd is well ashore one or two old bulls are generally left on watch. The best shot among the hunters now creeps up and by a successful rifle shot or two kills the guard. Owing to their very defective hear ing the noise made by the rifle does not wake them. The gun is then put aside and each hunter, armed with a sharp ax, approaches the sleeping animals and cuts the spines of as many of them as possible before the others become alarmed and stam pede for the water and escape. The white hunters rarely make use of anything but the two long, curved tusks with which the animal is equipped and which average about five pounds to the pair. If time permits, however, the flesh is boiled and the oil saved. To many of the Eskimos, especially on the arctic shore, the walrus is almost a necessity of 'life, and the devasta tion wrought among the herds by the whalers has been and is yet the cause of fearful suffering and death to many of the natives. The flesh is food for men and dogs. The oil also is used for food and for lighting and heating the houses. The skin when tanned and oiled mates a durable cover for the large skin boats. The intestines make waterproof clothing, window covers and floats. The tusks are used for lance or spear points or are carved into a great variety of useful and ornamental objects, and the bones are used to make heads for spears and for other purposes. In addition to hunting the wal rus themselves the whalers also pur chase from the Eskimos the tusks, or ivory, that they haxe secured. New York Sun. Not Infallible. Harriet Martineau, the English author, was shrewd and practical and had what men are pleased to call a "masculine intellect." But she was not always correct in her de ductions, a fact 1 illustrated by the following anecdote, told in her "Memoirs," by Sir Charles Murray, who was then the English consul general in Egypt: One afternoon we met at the villa of my old friend, S. W. Lark ing, on the banks of the Mahamou dieh canal. In the course of our stroll through the garden we came to a small gate, the pattern of which was new to Miss Martineau, who was walking in front. She stopped and, looking at the gate in an attitude of intense ad miration, exclaimed: "How truly oriental ! What won derful taste these easterners have in design!" She went on, and as Larking and I followed through the gate he whispered to me, "I got it out last week from Birmingham." Queer Ideas of Beauty. The amiability of Moorish wom en strikes me greatly, writes an Englishwoman in Morocco in the National Eeview. I visited some the other day, and they were full of kindly interest. They liked my fair hair, they liked my clothes. One old crone suggested how lovely I would be were I to paint my cheeks a brilliant red, stain my un der lids coal black, adding three black vertical lines on my forehead and one in the middle of my. chin; also stain my teeth with walnut juice, my hands with henna! ' I therefore rubbed my cheeks with my handkerchief till they turned crimson. That amused them high ly, and they laughed and said 1 needed no paint, but did need hen na and blacking! Another woman gazed at my waist and groaned, ex claiming she would be ill had she a waist as small as mine. ..- No Benefit. A well known actor, lying on his deathbed, '"according to the. physi cians, was approached by a . brother Thespian, who said : "Blank, old man, you. are long for this world yet. ' We are going to get up a -benefit" The dying man of . tragedy lifted himself up by hi left elbow and, shaking his long index, finger of the right hand in the visitor's face, hissed: "Benefit! - Benefit! Benefit! Oh, Shakespeare! Now indeed do I know that; death is at hand. My time is . come. A bene fit! Goodby,--oldbpy., See that I am decently buried. But no bene fit!" New YoBk Preesr Died, Saturday morning, Oct. 19th, 1907, at their borne one mile east of Monroe, Thomas Ellsworth, the little son of Mr. and Mrs. R. . Brabham, aged 5 months and 18 days.

Time to Call a Halt Before a Pan ic Comes. The business spirit is crushing out the sweeter element of home life. We are in danger of a great commercial decline, be cause men, as a whole, think only of get' ting wealth. There are thousands, both men and women, who do not take time to eat prop erly. They rash through life, and as a result we have an- age of indigestion, nervousness, irritability, sleepless nights and morose dispositions. With the discovery of Mi-o-na tablets, there is no longer any excuse for one to have ill health from stomach weakness. Mi-o-na strengthens the walls of the stomach, stimulates' secretion of the di gestive juices, regulates the liver amd re stores muscular contraction to tbe intes tines and bcwels, so no laxative is need ed. Sick headaches, palpitation, bad taste in the mouth, . yellow skin, irritability, coated tongue and melancholy are a few of the many distressing results of indiges tion. Mi-o-na never fails to dispel all these troubles. (Graham & Wells sell Mi-o-na in 50-cent boxes, and guarantee to refund the money if the remedy does not give complete satisfaction. 89 91 Real Estate Transfers.

There is au old saying that "there is nothing new under the sun," but there is, and the people of Yamhill county have tound it. A dispatch from there ells of it as follows: A suggestion is made that tbe women of the apple raising fam ilies of the county be asked U give an apple banquet to the editors of the county papers who have so loyally boosted so many fairs and functions held in tbe country. The barquet will take place at noon Saturday, Novem ber 2, and will consist of all manner of "apple fixings," ao ple pie, apple dumplings, apple cobbler, apple salad, apples bak ed, scalloped, fried, stewed, roast ed and in, every way in which apples have been used as food, and in new and tasteful dishes that may be invented and all washed down with apple cider. It is proposed to entertain edi tors and their wives tree. Others will pay 50 cents, and will be presented with a souvenir dish and fork and 10 ballets. They will be requested to taste any and all dishes at the banquet . and vote one ballot each for the 10 best articles entered for the con test. Big prizes will be given to the ladies who furnish the best dishes, according to the votes cast.
