Obviously, therefore, It will not be profitable ordi narily to put on this high priced finish when there Is every assurance that it will not command a high price ln the market On the other hand, on a well bred steer this last hundred pounds may make him a market topper, and the result in this case may Justify the high finish, though the latter part of this may be made at a high cost The relative supply and cost of grain and roughage to be disposed of are factors which should ln a measure de termine the length of the feeding pe riod. Cattle for short feeding are usu ally In higher condition at the begin nlng of the feeding period, and there fore tbe proportion of grain to rough age consumed is greater than with cat tle fed for a longer period. Where feeders wish to dispose of large quanti ties of roughage the feeding period is necessarily longer than when a larger proportion of concentrates to roughage is to be fed. In a general way, there fore, it may be said that tbe low grade steer should be used for a short feed only, while In tbe case of the well bred, fleshy steer a high finish will usually bring the surest and largest profits. In the case of tbe individual who raises his own feeders and carries them to a finish there is only one type that can be bandied at a profit on high priced landnamely, tue steer that in herits fleshing tendenclea Such cattle are the outcome of clearly defined breed characteristics, having In color and conformation the stamp of one of tlie great beef breeds. It does not dis count the sound doctrine which re quires that corn belt farmers ral3e only a good type of feeders to say that when feeding cattle are put into the feed lot from outside sources It Is, un der certain circumstances, entirely prac tical to use steers of rather inferior grade If these are bought right and brought to a nicely warmed up condi tion on the cheaper sorts of feed raised on corn belt farms. -- The American Guernsey Cattla club was the Srst organization of its kind to establish an advanced registry on the basis of a year's production of butter fat No ani mal of any age can get Into this advanced register that does not pro duce more than COO pounds of but ter fat In one year. The average of the thirty-five leading Guernseys ln the 1912 list was over 707 pounds of butter fat Not everybody can own such cows because they do not exist in sufficient numbers. Yeska Sunburst, the Guernsey cow shown, is one of the good ones. She Is own ed by IX. O. Qriawold of Wisconsin. Hog Mulch For Orchard. A Michigan man uses bog mulch and handles It very successfully. At least be calls it a bog mulch. Ills land Is not particularly good. He cultivates ln tbe spring and seeds Canada field peas, sometimes using a small quantity of oats. When the peas are pretty well formed be turns ln 200 bogs. They do not touch the trees, and by the use of movable fences be has been able to switch them from one part of the orchard to another until the entire crop Is fed down. lie furnishes his hogs with a little corn and then turns them to market as a byproduct of bis orchard. . .The orchard la well cul tivated by the rooting of the bogs, and a large amount of humus Is available to plow under the following spring. Orange Judd Farmer. and albumen in the buttermilk con tained ln the butter and so cause ran cid or putrid butter. Fermentation begun in cream does not eease ln butter. It may go far enough to break np the butter fata, causing ill flavored butter. Odors get Into the butter, or they may get into the milk or cream and then be imparted to the butter. The greatest source of bad flavor is from cream that has not been properly cared for. Milk, cream or butter absorbs odors if kept ln a fruit or vegetable cellar or In a musty, 111 ventilated room. Even musty wells or ill venti lated caves impart peculiar flavors. One of the moat common disagreeable flavors Is known as "weedy." The cause is laid to feed, but ln most cases It Is due to rapidly growing organisms which get into the cream from unclean surroundings. To prevent bad flavors in butter great caro must be used in milking. In handling the milk and cream and in making the butter. Everything used must be kept in a sanitary condition. Milk in a clean, well ventilated burn, using caro not to raise dust The milker should wear while milking a clean apron or a pair of overalls. Uten sils, Including the separator, must be washed and scalded after each milk ing. Use milk utensils with no open scams. The milk must be removed from the barn immediately after milking. Cream will keep best If kept in a clean. well ventilated room, preferably a separate milk house. Warm and cold cream should not be mixed. HAMS OF FINE FLAVOR.

Hoard's Dairyman says that the best way to seal a silo Is to put a consider able quantity of water into tbe silo after It Is filled with silage. This way of sealing a silo was discovered by accident a beavy rain on an un covered silo furnishing the water seal. It was feared that much silage would be ruined by tbe water, but when the owner began using tbe silagre he found a very thin layer of silage rotted, whereas before the rotted layer bad been many times as thick. Now this owner always seals bis silo by cover ing tbe silage with water. Stock Ought to Havo Grain.

Directions For Curing and Smoking According to a Famous Recip. After the bogs have been killed and the meat thoroughly cooled the fresh surface Is sprinkled with flue saltpeter until the meat Is white, says the Farm Magazine in describing a good recipe for curing bams. About three or four pounds of saltpeter are nsed to 1,000 pounds of bams. Fine salt la then rubbed over the entire surface, and the hams are packed ln bulk net deeper than three feet. In ordinary weather they should re main thus for eeieral days, at least three. Then break the bulk and re mit with fine salt and again rack. Each ham should remain ln bulk at least one day for each pound of weight The bams are then hung op and gradually smoked for thirty or forty days with hickory or red oak bsrk. When the smoking Is complete they should be repeppered and placed la canvas bags to guard against vermin. Tho hams cured as indicated improve with age, and are considered about perfect -Hogs Netd Much Wtr.
