Purebred  or  Grade  Dairy  Cows 
On  page  1275  there  is  an  article  on  the 
dairy  business  by  F.  L.  Allen.  The 
writer  states  a  “well-bought"  purebred 
cow  worth  $500  will  produce  a  calf  worth 
$100.  No  doubt,  this  is  true  if  the  calf's 
sire  was  a  $5,000  bull,  but  how  about  the 
service  fee?  Also,  if  the  calf  was  well- 
marked,  good  limbed,  etc.  It  is  not  un¬ 
common  to  see  an  advertisement  in  the 
agricultural  papers  of  a  purebred  bull 
calf  with  good  dam  and  sire  records  “for 
sale,  first  check  for  $25  gets  him.”  A 
man  with  a  purebred  herd  of  Holsteins 
frequently  finds  out  that  the  milk  sta¬ 
tions  and  creameries  arc  not  so  anxious 
little  condition  powders.  Then  we  paid 
10  cents  a  head  for  shearing,  which 
amounted  in  all  to  $71.74,  leaving  ns 
$1,855.48  for  our  own  feed  and  work,  or 
$18.10  net  for  each  ewe,  and  we  have  her 
yet.  We  believe  every  farm  should  grow 
its  own  feed.  That  is  what  a  farm  is  for, 
and  all  else  our  stock  gets  is  a  little  for 
a  relish. 
The  above  calculation  of  the  sale  of 
lambs  must  be  explained.  We  selected  17 
of  the  very  best  of  the  ewe  lambs  at 
shearing,  and  kept  them  for  mothers  in 
future.  They  were  more  valuable  for 
wool  and  meat  than  their  mates,  but  we 
do  not  know  how  to  make  a  safe  caleula-

HORSES 
Spider  in  Cow’s  Teat 
DAIRYMEN  in  Central  and  Eastern 
New  York  have  found  a  remedy  for 
this  ailment.  It  is  another  of  the 
many  uses  for 
3.1,  while  the  grades  will  test  3,6. 
If  he  and  his  neighbor  both  keep  24 
cows,  it  is  true  he  will  have  12  cans  when 
his  cows  are  fresh,  and  his  neighbor  only 
nine  cans.  It  costs  something  to  milk  and 
haul  that  extra  three  cans,  also  his  feed 
bill  will  probably  be  a  little  greater,  and 
his  investment  is  certainly  much  greater. 
The  question  is,  is  his  net  profit  any 
greater?  The  dairymen  in  this  section 
keep  grade  Holsteins  as  a  rule,  and  it  is 
not  because  they  all  are  unable  to  have 
purebreds.  Some  have  tried  and  gone 
back  to  grades. 
Nearly  all  the  colleges  and  agricultural 
papers  strongly  advise  purebred  cattle, 
while  the  farmers  watch  the  neighbor 
with  purebred  stock  and  are  satisfied 
with  their  “good  grade"  grades.  I  am  re¬ 
ferring  to  Holsteins.  This  is  a  subject  of 
which  only  one  side,  the  purebred  side,  is 
discussed,  and  for  anyone  to  say  anything 
in  favor  of  grades,  places  him  as  a  typi¬ 
cal  “hick”  lacking  education.  Why 
doesn’t  someone  take  sides  with  the 
grades?  Because  the  purebred  men  have 
something  to  sell?  ernest  e.  prosseb. 
Orange  Co.,  N.  Y. 
R.  N.-Y. — All  right,  let  us  give  the 
grade  cow  a  chance  to  prove  herself.  All 
those  men  with  grade  cows  will  be  found 
keeping  a  purebred  sire  anyway.  Tub 
R.  N.-Y.  will  welcome  such  a  discussion. 
We  think  the  purebred  cattle  can  hold 
their  own  in  the  argument. 
Exact  Returns  from  Sheep 
I  have  read  W.  W,  Reynolds’  article  on 
“Money  Returns  from  Sheep."  As  I 
have  a  flock  of  40,  I  am  somewhat  inter¬ 
ested.  I  have  sold  my  wool  and  lambs, 
latter  as  hothouse  lambs.  I  cannot  figure 
over  $10  per  head  for  my  ewes.  Will 
you  ask  Mr.  Reynolds  to  give  the  price 
of  wool  and  lambs  this  year?  T.  T.  a. 
Pomona,  N.  Y. 
Our  108  ewes  all  had  lambs  and  some 
of  them  twins,  nut  with  the  loss  of  weak 
ones  and  excusable  neglect  at  lambing, 
also  a  few  late  ones  lost  during  Summer', 
there  were  but  101  at  a  year  old.  That 
is  a  good  per  cent,  tor  fine  sheep  the  way 
the  average  wool-grower  handles  them. 
The  204  ewes  and  lambs  sheared  2,015 
pounds,  or  five  pounds  more  than  a  10- 
pound  average.  Wool,  2.045  lbs.,  at  83  1-8, 
$681.60;  lambs,  7,848  lbs.,  at  9%e., 
$745.56;  total,  $1,427.22.  We  bought 
during  the  year  a  ton  of  bran,  two  bar¬ 
rels  of  salt,  four  bags  of  oilmeal  and  a

length,  weight  and  color  of  wool.  Every 
year,  until  this  one,  we  have  culled  the 
mothers  and  sold  off  the  poorest,  but 
sheep  are  too  scarce  this  year,  farm  labor 
too  poor  and  high-priced,  so  we  will  in¬ 
crease  the  flock  and  devote  more  ground 
to  sheep.  They  are  more  congenial  than 
some  hands  that  help  us  at  Timothy,  corn 
and  wheat. 
T.  T.  II.  must  riot  think  we  are  proud 
of  our  gain,  on  the  contrary  it  is  poor. 
Those  lambs  came  during  a  period  of  two 
months  while  they  should  all  have  ar¬ 
rived  in  one.  We  want  no  more  late 
lambs  nor  uneven  bunches.  The  late 
fellows  cut  down  the  average  in  meat 
and  wool,  and  some  are  short  on  vigor 
daring  the  Summer.  Our  average  at  a 
year  old  was  but  78  pounds  after  clip¬ 
ping,  and  it  should  have  been  more.  Then 
the  whole  bunch  ran  together  until  wean¬ 
ing,  and  would  have  done  better  if  they 
had  been  divided,  and  the  average  of  10 
pounds  of  wool  is  too  light  because  some 
of  the  ewes  ran  as  low  as  seven,  and  the 
lambs  which  go  from  10  to  15  must  help 
them  up. 
T.  T.  H.,  growing  hothouse  lambs,  op¬ 
erates  differently  from  the  writer,  hut  no 
doubt  more  profitably.  We  keep  the 
lamb  a  full  year,  while  his  stays  but  a 
few  months.  Ours  get  nice  treatment  un¬ 
til  the  grass  comes,  and  rim  there  uutil 
weaning,  in  August,  and  are  getting  oats 
now.  They  will  pile  away  a  lot  of  clover, 
fodder,  Alfalfa,  corn  and  oats  before  we 
realize  on  them. 
Since  I  have  replied  to  T.  T.  II.,  I 
wish,  if  he  is  also  in  dairy  work,  he
