PUREBRED BEEF. 
There are many farmers who seem 
to think that purebred cattle are too 
much pampered, too highly fed and are 
too delicate for average farm condi¬ 
tions. Such is not the case, for pure¬ 
bred cattle receive only such care as the 
average farmer can and should accord 
to his live stock, and so far as high 
feeding is concerned, only a few show

animals are so treated, and they not to 
the point of injury. Owing to their 
rational treatment, almost all purebred 
stock are constitutionally strong and 
vigorous, and are quite capable of giv¬ 
ing a good account of themselves on 
the pastures and in the feed lot. The 
ultimate object of all purebred beef 
cattle breeders is the production of ex¬ 
cellent beef, and as soon as all beef pro¬ 
ducers are convinced that purebred 
cattle can make good, in competition 
•with grades and scrubs, in the feed lot 
PRIZE ANGUS IIEIFER. Fig. 35. 
and on our pastures, there will then be 
an unlimited demand for purebred cattle. 
In our county there is a young man 
who has stocked up with Angus cattle 
with the object of raising purebred beef. 
There are three excellent herds of An¬ 
gus cattle here, and by watching the 
local cattle sales this young man was 
able to secure the foundation of his 
herd at quite low prices. lie is raising 
these cattle under ordinary farm condi¬ 
tions, but keeps all his females regis¬ 
tered. so that there need be no trouble 
A FINE ANGUS COW. Fig. 36. 
about registration should he get sale 
for some of his young stock for breed¬ 
ing purposes or sale for some of the 
steers to feed for the fat stock shows. 
However, for the most part he has so 
far made the production of beef his 
prime object, and expects to continue 
to do so. He recently sold several for 
beef at 25 cents per 100 advance over 
prices of other cattle at the time these 
were sold. 
This young man has quite excellent 
females, close relations of the cattle 
shown in the pictures, and he further¬ 
more can breed to some bulls of na¬ 
tional reputation if he wishes. The 
cattle shown in the pictures, Figs. 34, 
35 and 36, are all prize winners and 
very good types of the Angus breed. 
Such an example and, experiment, one 
might say, as described above cannot 
help but be a good object lesson for 
any neighborhood. It will show what 
such cattle are capable of, and will 
show that the registration of an animal 
does not necessarily imply that it is 
too fine to make profitable beef. 
Now, do not get the impression from 
this article that our Angus cattle here 
are good enough for the shambles only, 
for on the contrary our cattle are top- 
notchers, as these pictures show, as the 
records of the various State fairs am 
of the International will prove. It is 
quite a luxury to have some purebrec 
Angus cattle to finish for beef, but un¬ 
less one raises them they are not to be 
had, and even Angus grades are hare 
to secure, because their owners do not 
care to let them go. They fatten sooner 
and command better prices when sold 
than common stock. High grade cattle 
are more profitable than the commoner 
kind, and if one raises his own calves 
and is not interested in dairying, why 
not raise purebred cattle for beef? Do 
not think that purebred cattle are too 
fine or too costly for you on your farm, 
for if you are capable of succeeding 
with common stuff you really deserve 
the best, and you will find that pure¬ 
bred cattle are well suited to your con¬ 
ditions. w. E. D.

TURKEY RAISING. 
On page 908 Mrs. E. J. R. gives us 
her method of turkey raising. Her 
statements as to breed, culture, etc., are 
correct, but as to the White Holland 
variety being more domesticated than 
the Bronze, I think she is in error. I 
have bred the latter for years, and they 
scarcely go out of sight of the buildings 
during the entire season or, I might say, 
a quarter of a mile away. A neighbor, 
who prides herself on her Hollands, fre¬ 
quently finds them half a mile or more 
away, usually trespassing on the neigh¬ 
bors’ farms. However, if fed morning 
and evening ration regularly either will 
usually be on hand at meal-time. But 
there is one drawback to the Hollands; 
their carcasses when dressed will not 
command as much, by three to five cents 
per pound, as the Bronze; at least that 
is the situation here in the New York 
and Albany markets, and in fact specu¬ 
lators shun them entirely if they can 
secure other varieties to supply their 
needs. There seems to be a color to 
the flesh that does not attract the re¬ 
tail trade. Nevertheless they are pretty 
and showy on the lawn, but for profit 
as well as home-loving birds I would 
choose the Bronze every time. o. w.
