BRYAN DEEPLY GRATEFUL.
BEEF FOR THE
SHOW RING.
To produce a beef animal for show
purposes it is not sufficient that the
animal be given a few weeks of train
ing at the end to round him into prop
er condition. It is tnseullul to com
mence the training of the animal at
birth. For beef purposes it has been
my experience that the calf from au
Angus cow, sired by u while or roan
Shorthorn bull, hiCa glve.i ije best sat
isfaction. I aim to li:ive llm calf born
some time between Den. 1 and Ibu Ins!
of January. This will get (be calf
Into proper condition, so that be will
derive the benefits of Hie early seed
in the spring.
From birth until August the calf Is
allowed to run with the mother. The
cow Is milked twice each day, so that
a supply of milk will be maintained
for the calf as long as desirable. When
six weeks old it is given a little lin
seed oil cake and yellow turnips.
About the middle of May the cow and
calf are turned into the pasture, where
they are left until the 1st of August.
Tho calf is then takeu from the moth
er and put Into a box stall, which is
kept well bedded with clean, fresh
straw.
The calf is suckled twice each day
and given plenty of green feed. In
the morning I give him also a little
linseed cake and in the evening a lit
tle grain, consisting of equal parts of
If Elected Will Not Seek Second
Nomination.
Fairvlew, Lincoln, Neb. William
J. Bryan, when he received ths an
nouncement of his nomination as
Presidential candidate of the Demo
cratic party, said:
"The Presidency is the highest of
ficial position in the world, and no
one occupying it can afford to have
his views upon public questions
biased by personal ambition. Rec
ognizing his responsibility to God,
and his obligation to his countrymen,
he should enter upon the discharge
of his duties with singleness of pur
pose. Believing that one can beit
do this when he 1b not planning for
a second term, I announce now, aj I
have on former occasions, that, If
elected, I shall not be a candidate
for re-election.
"This Is a nomination plainly from
the people, and my obligation will
be purely to the people. I appre
ciate the honor more because It oame
not from one person or a few per
sons, but from the rank and file, act
ing freely and without compulsion."

used." If tronbled with indigestion

oats and bran. Ills exercise consists
of an hour or two each afternoon In
an open lot. After Sept. 1 I also feed
him a few turnips.
About three weekB before the open
ing of the show I commence to give
the calf more personnl care and train
ing. Ills feed continues as before,
but his exercise Is all taken at the
rope's end. Each afternoon I lead him
up and back a half mile lane. lie Is
allowed to travel at bis own leisurely
pace, but Is required to keep moving
and to keep his head held up. After
this he Is given a lesson In standing,
turning around and starting at the
snap of the whip. Through this means
he soon loses all shyness and will feel
at ease when led Into the show ring.
Each day, usually In the morning, I
sponge him off with cold water and
blanket him, thus encouraging the
growth of the hair. :
A few days before' bo is expected to
be shown I polish his horns, oil his
hoofs and curl his coat of hair. To
polish his horns I first go over them
with the rasp, followed respectively
by the emery, sandpaper and a piece
of glass. This treatment is applied
but the first time, and each day fol
lowing I polish tho horns with R
pumice stone and a little olive oil.
Ills feet are trimmed and a little oil
n nd lampblack occasionally applied to
give them n darker appearance. To
curl the hnlr the calf is first sponged
off with cold water until his hair Is
thoroughly wet.
Now, beginning at the head nnd
win king back, I comb his coat straight
down. Next I turn the comb edge
wise and draw a series of parallel
lines the long way of the animal. This
Is followed by combing lightly from
the bottom upward, which leaves the
FINISHING SHEEP.
B
To Reach Perfection They Must
Properly Fed From Birth.
Scientific men give to the feedei
various formulae for the proper bal
ancing of the rations or food given to
live stock which Is termed a balanced
ration, or, in other words, a certain
quautlty of food the chjjuileal con
stituents of which balance In correct
proportion to the supposed require
ment of the animal which consumes
them. Like all scientific principles
when used in practical work, it needs
in addition to the scientific, a thorough
practical knowledge In order to obtain
full benefit from the Information thai
science has placed In the bands of the
feeder. What Is suitable for an nnl
mill at one stage of Its development la
not necessarily so at another. In deal
ing with tho finishing of sheep, how
ever, It may at once be said that, no
matter how skillful the feeder may
be, he can never bring sheep or lambs
to a proper finish that have been in
their earlier, days neglected or allowed
to waste and become poor.
The essence of the first class carcass
or the perfectly finished sheep or lamb
is that it should never lose during any
portion of Us career that fine touch
which only those that have been fed

hair In long, horizontal rows of curls.
The hair Is neatly parted in the mid
dle on the forehead and backward
over tho neck to the shoulder. This Is
repeated each day until the day of tho
show. On tho morning that lie Is to
be shown I polish his hoofs and horns
and curl his hnlr. He Is not given
much feed, ns this would give him a
pouchy appearance. After this he Is
glveu a short walk and Is then ready
to be led Into the show ring.
To handle nn animal In the bIiow
ring requires a good denl of skill and
ndeptness. A poorer animal, well
shown, quite often takos n bluo rib
bon over a better one poorly shown. I
aim to keep the fore feet of tho ani
mal on a little higher ground when
possible. Tho head of the animal
must at nil times bo held high nnd
when standing should stand evenly on
all four feet. The showing Is, of
course, the climax of the whole thing.
I try to keep one eyo on tho animal

Flocks Tht Py.
It Is not necessarily the largest flock
that nets the largest profits. A smaller

loafers may pllo up the net gain much
faster even If the gross Income should
be decreased.
Excellent Health Advice.
Airs. M. M. Davidson, of No. Ht7
Uifford Ave., Sau Jose, Gnl., says:
"The worth of Eloctrio Bitters as a
goneral family remedy, for headache,
biliousness and torpor of the livur aud
bowels is so pronounced that I nm
prompted to say a word iu its favor,
for the benefit of those seeking roliof
from suoli afflictions. Tiior is more
health for the digestive organs in a
bottln of Elcctrio Hitters than in auy
other remedy I know of. " Bold un

straight on from birth can give. Thf
breeder who Is toiost successful Is the
feeder who brings his sheep to the
greatest degree of perfection, is the
man who feeds regularly with au
Increasing quantity of food, In ac
cordance with the consuming capa
bility of the sheep, straightaway from
birth, and Is the man who exhibits the
most perfectly finished animal.
It Is singular but true that for out
ordinary market requirements it is fai
more difficult to finish our sheep so as
to realize the highest price than It is to
finish for the show or for exhibition.
I'or tho latter one cannot well get the
anlnuil too fat, nor can It be overfed
so long as the (Inn and good touch
remains, but with tho ordinary market
the demand at the present time Is fot
the animal that Is deep In Its flesh,
with a good handle and n moderate
supply of fat. This market condition
needs great care In feeding. W. It. Gilbert.

Feeding a Coach Stallion.
I feud our stallions during breeding
season about ten quarts oats nnd eight
quarts bran nnd ns much timothy hay
as they will eat up clean per day. I
always feed them throe times a day
and a bran mash twice a week. During
the nonbreedlng season I cut the oats
down If I do not want the horse for
show purposes. All our stallions get
two hours walking exercise a day. Al
