How to Know Poetry.
We literates have been tanght to
rend poetry, and taught also that It
Is highly coinmeudahle to enjoy It. In
order to know what kind of poetry
ought to lie especially enjoyed. We read
other books, w ritten by critics. In or
der to understand what (he poetry
that ought to he admired means, we
read other b'Mks by professional
grammarlaiia. Ity the time1 we have
finished thla preiuiratory reading, we
are somewhat confused. We are In
doubt as to what poetry actually Is,
and how It differs from prose. In thla
predicament we fall hack on the print
er. If every line begins with a cap
ital letter, we assume that It is po

The good, rich, real to

Finianad Steer of Good Breeding
Bring Much Better Price Than
Scrub.
tie may find calvea more profitable.
While this Is regarded as the best
practice under ordinary circumstances,
there are advantages, especially at thla
time In feeding younger cattle, the
nrfnclpal ones being the obtaining of
a higher market price for the finished
steer, If of good breeding, and an op
portunity to hold for a longer period
of time when fattened with leaa lo&a
than the more mature steer."
GIVE HOGS' FEET ATTENTION
Bad Underpinning Are Often Due to
Lack of Trimming aa Wall aa
to Overfeeding,
When the new breeder la getting
ready to exhibit his hogs at the connty
and atate fairs he should pay atten
tion to the feet of the animals as well
as to fitting them. If the animals are
overfed, very often they have a tend
ency to go down In the feet. Bad feet
are also often due to lack of attention
as well as to overfeeding and poor
breeding. Animals thnt are not given
an opportunity to take a proper
amount of exercise on hard ground
are apt to show this trouble more than
those under ordinary conditions. In
trimming the toes the pig Is thrown
on Its side and with a sharp jnokknlfe
the ends of the toes can he pared off.
Occasionally the sole of the foot may
nred paring also, so that the pig will
walk fiat on the foot. Care should be.
taken to smooth up the Job and to not
cut the foot too deeply, so as to bleed
and cause lameness. The trimming
should be done at least ten days or
two weeks before the show.

BEEF PRODUCTION FALLS OFF
Nearly Half of Farmers Last Year
Operated at Los Similar Con
dition This Year.
Beef In the United States was last
year produced at an average cost of
14 to 15 cents, according to figures
furnished by H. C. Taylor, chief of
farm management of the United
States department of agriculture.
However, only 58 per cent of the
cattle concerned were produced for
that and 42 per cent cost more. Fifty
six per cent of the producers kept
these costs at 15 cents or less, so that
nearly half of the fanners producing
beef operated at a loss. 1920 figures
Indicate that a similar condition rules
and that production Is falling off con
siderably as a result, since no one
likes to produce at a loss.
Feeding prices and land vulues are
given as the reason for the falling off
of the profit. As a remedy for It Mr.
Taylor suggests keeping of better rec
ords of all farm accounts, elimination
of excessive marketing charges and
good management
SCREENINGS NOT POISONOUS
As Feed Substitute for Bran They
Can Be Fed to Sheep With
Much Advantage.
According to a recent report of the
U. S. department of agriculture, sweet
clover seed screenings are not poison
ous to live stock. They can be fed to
shepp to advantage, being a good grain
feed, but they probably are not so
good as bran. However, as bran Is
a marketable product and sweet clover
screenings are not. being an otherwise
wnste product of the farm, as a feed
substitute for bran It constitutes a net
saving of the cost of bran and Is there
fore of considerable value to the pro
ducer who can use It.
