One of the most remarkable, and an ab- ‘Solutely true story, Is that of a “Yan- kee’s” artificial leg which came into the possession of a Confederate offi- eer. Marching in the parade the other day was Capt. J. N. Ballard, wear- ing a leg that originally belonged to Colonel Dahlgren of the northern army, and which Captain Ballard has been using for approximately sixty years. Colonel Dahlgren, after losing a leg in one of the. earlier battles of the Civil war, repifieed it with a costly artificiak one; He later fell mortally wounded jn s gkirmish at White's tavern, near, Ri o 1864, at the . 3 hands of J..E.. tuart’s men.

The phrase “baby beef” has been In existence for many years. At first it was to some extent a term of re- proach, but any stizma attached to it has worn off, and it is now part and parcel of modern farming. Baby beet is early maturity in con- centrated form. An animal that loses its calf flesh may yet be finished at a fairly early age, but-it will never make baby be¢f. Thelatter; in addition to ‘early maturity, must cembine qual- ity, -finish and thickness of flesh. There are many cattle that cannot be fattenéd early; breeding will play itst part:dn this as in other things. Experiments carefully planned and carrfed out have demonstrated that young animals will give a greater- re- turn in beef for food, and can, there- fore, be more -econcmically fattened than older ones. The advantage Is from 25 to 50 per cent in favor of the younger anl- mal. This fs quite sufficlent margin to Induce many who have not yet es- sayed baby beef to try it. It has an- other advantage in being ready for the market at-any time, and cun be sent off If trade 18 good or held back if prices are low.
