PEA FED PORK.
Pfctnct to B of Dalicious Flavor, Tmh
dor. Sweet and Firm In Fat.
la January a Los Angeles (CaL) ship
per, hearing of the choice quality of
the pork from hogs fattened on peas
In the San Luis valley, went to Monte
Vista, Colo., and bought one carload
Of pea fattened hogs, sending theni
alive to Los Angeles, nearly 1.20O
miles. The pork from this trial ship
ment was found to be superior to
any ever before sold in that market.
Later more carloads were sent, and
up to June 1 105 carloads of pea fat;
tened hogs 8.400 head had been sent
from the San Luis valley to Los An
geles, and the buyers would have tak
en more if they could have been se
cured. The buyers report that upon
slaughter not a single diseased hog
was found.
Packers in Portland, Ore., hearing of
the popularity of pea fed pork in Cali
fornia, visited the San Luis valley
nd bought eight carloads of fat hogs,
hipping them alive to Portland.
In both Los Angeles and Portland
the pork from the pea fed hogs was
found to have a more delicious flavor,
to be more teDder and sweeter, with
the fat firmer, than that made from
any other feeds. Stockmen of Ala
mosa made through" the winter ship
ments of pea fattened hogs to Albu
querque, N. M., the pork meeting the
ame favor there that it did in Los
Angeles and in Portland. For the
year ending June 1, 1907, 18,000 pea
fattened hogs were shipped tut of
the San Luis valley.
The foregoing items occur in a state
ment credited to H. M. Cottrell of the
Colorado experiment station.
Farmers Growing Peas and Hogs.
Professor Cottrell further says: Be
sides these large demands already ex
isting, it is the opinion of the best
meat men in Denver that, if a regular
Bupply of pea fattened hogs could be
secured through the year, on account
of its flavor the pork could be sold
at an advanced price to the best
hotels, clubs and private families
throughout the east and south. These
shipments have opened a new era in
meat production in Colorado and have
started farmers all over the state to
raising hogs. The average price paid
the farmers on track in the valley for
200 pound fat hogs has been $13 a
head. Good peas sold in the valley
last fall at $0 an acre, the growers
making a profit. An acre of good peas
will make 400 pounds gain on fatten
ing hogs.
THE FEEDER.
Standing out conspicuously above all
other trade facts is the growing scar
city of unfinished cattle of the kind the
feeder wants. His specifications are
that they must show breed type and
carry flesh, and when they possess
these qualifications he is willing to
pay a good price.
Kvidently the east must go to the
west for material to fill feed lots or
quit beef making. Ultimately the
problem will be solved by breeding.
Cattle trade has gone on a permanent
ly higher basis despite skepticism.
"Keep your eye on the corn crop,"
was the reply of a stocker dealer to a
feeder seeking advice. "If you don't
have a killing frost until October and
the fat cattle market gets no serious
setback, everybody vrill want a few
cattle, and it will be the hottest fall
feeder market these money years."
Breeder's Gazette, Chicago.
High Priced Feed Lot Material.
From all points this year come com
plaints and predictions of a scarcity of
feeding lambs and cattle. While it is
Impossible to tell what the outcome of
any investmentvin feeders may be, it is
evident that lambs at $7 or better in
market are pretty high priced feed lot
material. As for cattle, the ranges are
In excellent shape, and a larger propor
tion than usual of the range output
will go for beef, and a smaller propor
tion will be suitable for feeders unless
taken at high prices for a short feed.
A few years ago we had a shortage of
beef because of a short corn crop, says
National Stockman. Next we are like
ly to have a shortage of beef because
of a short cattle crop, which is a kind
of scarcltj not overcome in a year or
two, as was the other one.
Rate of Gain on Corn.
One can count in a general way on a
eteer making a gain of one pound on
ten pounds of corn. If he is fed twen
ty pounds of corn daily, he ought to
make a gain of two pounds a day, says
a corn belt authority.
It Pays to Weigh.
It is now well established that those
feeding beef cattle with success and j
economy find it necessary to weigh the '
cattle every few weeks and adjust the
feed to their needs. By so doing much
larger gains will be obtained for a j
given consumption of food, and there j
Is no danger of the animal getting off I
feed. Concentrates are so expensive j
on the average farm that economy in
this direction is certainly essential. I
Andrew M. Soule.
Flesh on the Horse.
It does not occur to most of us that
flesh is just as important a factor in
horses as in beef cattle, with this dif-'i
ference, you can put your cattle in the
feed lot, give them highly concentrat
ed feed and fatten them rapidly; then
when they are ready for the block the
deal is consummated. But with horses
it is not quite the same, and the ques
tion of condition is even more impor
tant, because it is not fat only that
they need; they must have firm flesh
'and muscle to withstand the breaking
period and to enable them to stand
the work required of them later on,
and to fatten your horse is only the
first step toward marketing him, says
William Anson in Farm and Ranch.
POST PULLER.
No Digging or Hand Labor Required
With This Machine.
An easy and practical method of
pulling fence posts by which all dig
ging and hand labor are eliminated is
shown in accompanying cut. Take a
plank four feet long and one foot wide
and make a V shaped notch in one end,
nailing on several -fcrosspieces to pre
vent splitting. This plank used to
POST PUIiIiKE IN POSITION.
change the horizontal draft to the ver
tical, "explains a writer in American
Agriculturist.
1 Place one end of chain around the
post close to ground. Incline the plank
against the post so the lower end of
the plank will be about one and a half
or two feet from the base of the posfc
Place the chain in the notch of the
plank and start the team, and the post
will start upward with surprising
speed aud in a few seconds will be
clear of the ground.
In moving fences the chain should
be attached to the rear axle of the
wagon, so the posts may at once be
loaded and hauled to the new location
of the fence.
SWEET POTATOES.
Jersey Yellow Is a Fancy Variety and
a Good Keeper.
For a number of years Vineland fan
cy sweet potatoes have brought top
prices in New York. The sandy soil
in this vicinity, when a .10 per cent
potash fertilizer is applied, produces
bright yellow sweet potatoes. The
shape and size of the potatoes grown
on sandy soil depend mostly on the
variety, but quite largely on the sea
son or condition of the soil. A rich
garden soil will produce a large crop,
but not "fancy" sweet potatoes. Some
years only a few set, and these grow
large. Shape, size, color and quality,
and especially color, are very impor
tant items. It is usual among the best
growers, to save some small potatoes
for seed, selecting from hills that show
no disease and bear potatoes of the
desired shape.
The Market Favorite.
The Jersey Yellow variety produces
the fancy sweet potatoes so much de
sired in the New York market,' but
these are troubled by the disease call
ed stem rot more than the larger,
coarser looking Big Stem variety. The
Jersey Yellow is, however, a good
keeper and is now most generally
grown, says a writer In Rural New
Yorker.
Owing to the fact that sweet pota
toes grow rapidly at the latter end of
the season, harvesting is put off until
after the first frost by many growers.
Several kinds of diggers are in use
a one horse plow, the scoop digger and
other diggers. The harvesting of the
crop is laborious in any case. The po
tatoes are placed (not thrown) in piles
or rows while hanging together. They
are then sorted into half bushel or five
eighths baskets, hauled to the, cellar
in low wheeled wagons and the primes
and seconds stored in separate bins.
Often the cellar under the . dwelling
house is used as a storeroom.
The Sweating Process.
About three days before beginning to
store the crop a fire is built In the
stove or furnace and the temperature
of the cellar raised to 90 degrees or
over and kept there until all the sweet
potatoes are in and have passed the
heavy sweating process. The cellar
should be ventilated, preferably through
an open window or one partly open at
the south end. After a few days of
this high temperature the cellar is al
lowed to cool gradually to about 70
degrees and kept there or sometimes
lower.
What Horses Prefer.
Horses prefer timothy cut when the
seed is well formed, but not fully ripe.
As this class of stock Is unfavorably
affected by. laxative feeds, late cut tim
othy is also preferred for them on ac
count of its favorable effect on the di
gestive tract. In the case of cattle lax
ative feed Is rather to be preferred,
says a writer in Orange Judd Farmer.
Cattle also relish timothy when it is
cut rather green; hence for cattle
timothy should be cut about the time
it is in blossom. Any time from a day
or two before the first bloom till a day
or two after the second bloom will an
swer. The yield will be slightly larger
at the later stage.
Fruit For Storage.
Fruit for storage should be picked
while yet firm, as fruit that has ad
vanced to a stage of ripeness to be
best for eating will almost invariably
"break down" and even if it looks well
when taken out will be decayed at the
core, says Farm Journal. Some grow
ers of high quality fruit pick their or
chards more than once, gathering the
fruit as soon as it Is well colored, leav
ing the poorly colored and immature
fruits until they have become well col
ored. Rye For a Cover Crop.
Eye sown in October for a cover
crop will usually have time to make
sufficient growth to keep the land
from washing during the heavy spring
nuns.
COMPACTNESS.
Thet . Incompact Horse Gooa
Easily and Tiroa Early. ' : j
Id all horses of general utility the
quality known as compactness Is the ;
primary requisite. . No hunter can pos
sibly be good without it, no hack rides
well without it, no harness horse can
be properly balanced without compact
ness, and no Shire horse is worthy of
Its stable room and bulky forage with
out full development of this important
symmetrical characteristic In horpee
It la of overwhelming Importance. The
word compact means closely and firm
ly united, firm, solid, dense, structure
well connected. Its effect on the work
may be illustrated by a hypothetical
horse whose chief fault Is his incorn
pactness. Imagine two men carrying a long
ladder. The stumbllig and falling of
the front man cannoc be prevented or
influenced by the hinder man. So
with the Incompact horse whose long,
weak back severs rather than unites
the connection between the two ends.
And with either fore leg in trouble
down he goes with such violence as
ruins him for life. Supposing the long
backed, weak horse escapes actual fall
or serious damage, he is still, highly
incompetent, because he always goes
like falling, especially when tired, and
a very little work will induce this
early weariness. I suggest that own
ers and breeders should avoid this
most miserable type of animal. His
hind legs are ever behind him in com
pany with his tail, and his head be
comes the fifth limb,- which too often
props him up. This explains the ef
fects of incompactness.
How a Horse Proves His Quality.
A Short, strong back, with long quar
ters and shoulders, will in a well bred
; animal produce action in principle not
j unlike the kangaroo. Notice the horse
! in harness. Driving last week my
good harness horse pulled hard, his
hind legs seeming to be ever forward,
and with a wheeled dogcart he cheer
fully did each measured mile in less
than five minutes. He carried himself
on his hind legs and had a fore foot
tripped the weight of the frontage of
the horse temporarily or momentarily
would have been borne by the hind
- leg.' The hind leg measures one inch
more i than the fore, and it is much
more powerful. The muscles which
drive it are the most powerful in the
entire body, and the motor nerves
which convey their energies to these
muscles are the most important forces
in the entire animal. Compactness
would therefore Bave a horse from
falling, the hind leg alone coming to
the rescue.
This applies to allotypes of light
. horses,' and a cart horse is a bad walk-
er unless the swing of the hind leg
be long and-good. In this respect ev
ery horse proves his quality when
walking by planting his hind foot far
in front of the fore foot print. W. K.
Gilbert, Canada, in National Stock
j man.
THE SHEPHERD.
J For the man who has no sheep an
economical and profitable method of
starting the flock would be to purchase
; the so called old ewes which have
; been discarded from the flocks . of
sheep men. Many people consider a
ewe old and undesirable when she at
tains the age of five years. Such a
ewe if a good breeder will not appear
! so nice to the eye of the visitor as
j the two or three year old ewe. Still,
If her udder is good there is no rea
1 son why she would not be profitable
; from a breeding standpoint until she
is eight or ten years old. She' is just
the kind of an animal for the begin
ner in the sheep business to handle.
During the month of September and
the' early part of October of each year
there are thousands of just such ewes
sent to our markets, where they are a
drug. W. J. Kennedy.
A Very Little Corn, Please.
Concentrated and stimulating foods
are unsuited to sheep. A very little
corn will do with other grains, says a
sheep 'feeder. Corn makes the sheep
feverish, Inflames the udders of the
ewes and makes a big show of milk,
which is actually inflammation and
swelling. It also makes the lambs
weak. The feverish condition dries
the wool, makes it brittle and checks
Its growth.
No Need For Tears.
There will be a death loss among
feeding lambs no matter how careful
ly they are fed. Care will greatly re
duce this .loss, however. The writer
has had as low as 2 per cent and as
high as 8 per cent. If no more than
4 per cent loss is sustained, no one
need shed tears. F, E. Wing.
Mutton Chops.
Do not shut the sheep up too closely
on cool nights, as they may suffer from
want of air if at all crowded, advises
Farm Journal.
Sheep need to be kept dry. They
need very little protection from cold,
but damp fleeces are to be guarded
against.
Count the sheep every day. Yoa may
save a sheep by it. Go among them
every day with some salt or dainty.
When the wool on the sleep's back is
not soft and oily, something Is wrong
with that sheep. Better loot: into the
matter and do what you can tc, make
her well again.
More Hothouse Lambs Needed..
The conditions afforded by New
Hampshire offer an excellent oppor
tunity for the production of early
lambs for the Boston market. The de
mand for early or "hothouse" lambs
is increasing every year, and the prictfl
J-pald for them should encourage our
sheep raisers in this phase of tt-e in
dustry, says F. W. Taylor of the state
experiment station in American Culti
vator. V. '
