A Fine Milking Shorthorn 
A remarkable incident in American live 
stock husbandry is reported from Penn¬ 
sylvania. Mrs. L. D. May, whose pic¬ 
ture is shown herewith, sold a Shorthorn 
bull at a private sale for $3,000. A pic¬ 
ture of this bull, Glenside Roan Cyrus, is 
shown on this page. He is what is known 
as a milking Shorthorn; that is, he be-

Mrs. L. D. May, Breeder of Shorthorns 
longs to the type of that breed noted for 
its dairy quality, and also having beef¬ 
making ability. Mrs. May is said to op¬ 
erate a farm covering 700 acres, with 100 
head of milking Shorthorn cattle. In 
these days of live stock depression, the 
sale of this bull for the price mentioned 
is remarkable. The milking Shorthorns 
have a fine reputation as dual-purpose 
cattle, and this figure is a record for the 
season.

Experience in Feeding Apple Pomace 
I live near a wmall mill, and during the 
past season I fed the entire crop of apple 
pomace. This mill made about 325 bbis. 
I feed it to my herd of 14 cows and four 
horses; horses become very fond of it, 
as well as cattle. I do not have a silo, 
so cannot give you any experience on that 
line. I can say that the cattle are very 
fond of pomace, and have seen the cows 
to eat the apple pomace first when mixed 
with a dairy ration; also to leave corn 
nubbins and eat pomace first. The New 
Jersey Experiment Station informs us 
that pomace has about the same feeding 
value as corn silage. JOHN K. kineiiart.
