Hawk to the Western kStockmen and Cultivator, The ques- tion of whether or not it pays to raise these calves is not often asked, as, in general, these calyes are considered valuable, and ave raised as a matter of course. I have had experience witn these fall calves, and always raised them till withw the last two years, I shall nop raise any more of them except when the calf is a heifer, which I want to raise for a c This happens quite often as I always try to huve our brst fresh in the fall, ud I think it the only sure way of getting a good cow 1o raise and educate her myself I always raise a well-bred ~ heifer calf. The objections to raising a fall calf are (1) Such a calf is a gieat dealof extra work during a whole winter when the labor on a stock farm is most exadéting and confining 2, The skim milk made during the win- ter is worth more when fed tothe grow- ing pigs than it 18 when fed o a calf. 8. The winter calfis weaned in the spring and genevally turned out to grass without grain; which resultsin checking the calf’s growth, so that in many cases he will not come out at the end of the second winter as good as tho spring calves, or if ho does keop up good growth he is larger than yearlings und smotler than. two- r-olds, and so spoils the grade of tfm stoek cattle, a peint of no mean importance to a cape= ful stockman, I think all or avy of these peasons sufticient for leading to the disposal of the iall calf, which can always be done for all he is wo. th, s0 that the matter is only & matter of ¢onvenience and not one of making a 1035 or otherwise, - The 90-Cont store are diroct importe of dolls, toys, albumsand fancy goods. went its $110,000 in securiy | ? ! pawned the " COAL!
