These fiz- ures indicate that the good steer car- ries a. greater percentage of the. high- pricd cuts and a Jower percentaze of thé ' medium priced and cheap cuts than does the medium steer, although the animals may be fed similar ra- tions. This divergence in meaf make- up at market time must be attributed to_breeding. ¥ 3 What is true of the beef animal is dlse true of dairy cattle in that econ omjeal . production of milk and butter- fat devend larg: upon selection in breeding. No farmer can afford scrub livestock in these dayvs of high grain and forage costs. It is a tax on the consumer as well as the farmer. CLEANLINESS AN ENEMY OF POULTRY DISEASES Cleanliness is of the greatest im- portance "in keeping lice and mites, fleas, and other Insects under control, and should have the closest attention. ‘The poultry houses, roosts, dropping boards, brood coops and all other places that the fowls or chickéns occu- py should be kept clean. An abund- ance of light and fresh air should al- 80 be provided. While these things camnot be depended on to keep away lice ‘and mites, yet thev make it eas- fer to determine when the pests are present and help to keep fowls heal- thy 3nd vigorous, making them better able to withstand and to fight off the attacks of lice .and mites, Sick or diseased fowls -are always the first victims of these parasites. which makes it important that the fowls be kept healthy. TYPHOID AND THE FARM.' “Typhoid fever is peculiarly a rural disease.” This statement comes from the United States Department of Ag- riculture and is, therefore, authorita- tive. Nearly anyone who will stop and think will recognize the truth of the statement put it is equally true that such has not always been the case. It is true even now of manv European ‘countries where water supply and sewage disposal have been neglected. Typhoid was once a scourge. of the cities. It thrives best in dense popu- lations if given a chance. The statement brings home the fact that sanitation has not been carried to the farms as effectively as to the city. Perhaps this is hardly possible but certainly rural sanitation is not entirely hopeless. - Soil ' pollution, doubtless, is the prin- eipal reason for high typhoid infection in the country. Wells have been es- tablished. with a view to convenience rather than sanitation. Three out of four according to the government au- thorities, are located within seventy- five feet of the house and in the direc- tion of the barnyard. In many cases drainage ig toward the well rather than away from it. . The United States Department of Agriculture at Washington has pub- lished 2 bulletin on Sewage Disposal en the Farm. It should be of value to apy farm owner who has occasion te suspect the souree of his water sup- ply. Few wells are tested regularly for purity, although this state. along with many others, is amply supplied with facilities for making such tests THE Cow AND WAR. During ‘the werld war. Amerifan exports of milk products increased considerable more than three fold. In 1914, 70,000,000 pounds of milk left the United States. In' 1919, the -total was 2.550,000000. It was not raw milk, of course, but for the sgke of comparison the United States De- max of Agricuiture has reduced the figures to pounds of milk. Butter and cheess “constituted the two items making up the total in 1914 In-1919, there was a big added 1ten€x of condensed milk—something more than half the total, These figures hold an interest far New England dairymen, especially so in light of the fact that Europe hopes to get bagk on a pre-war basis so far as dairying is concerned within the next two years. . At present, milk consumption per capita in the United States is far be- low the normal of public heglth stand- ards. The loss of Xuropean trade weuld not be feit by American dair: , if the home demand were any- thing like what - it should be.
