As the experiment progresses light may be thrown upon the dual-purpose type. In selecting beef cattle the breeder has usually chosen the fat steer as his ideal, and varies from this type only far enough to secure evidence of masculinity in the male and of femininity in the female, in other respects selecting each sex upon the same basis. The dairyman has used the type asociated with high production in the female and selects the bull as nearly to that type as Ms sex will permit. By using beef bulls from high-producing dams, and selecting cows upon their ability to produce, a double standard may result, one for males and another for females, rather than a dual-purpose type, which is a compromise between two ideals.

As the majority of the cows range in age from 5 to 8 years, many of them never having been even halter-broken, all of them having suckled calves and none having been hand-milked, their first year's performance at the pail will not represent their actual producing capacity. Probably many similar difficulties will be encountered before the experiment has settled dawn to a smoothly-running basis. Every precaution has been used to see that the experiment will continue through a long period of years. This is essential, because under the best of conditions 6 years are required to replace a mature breeding herd with their offspring. When time is taken to select a definite type from the orieinal herd, 20 years, the proposed duration of this experiment, may prove to be insufficient.

In that time, however, some indication of the trend of the herd should be evident Prof. W. A. Cochel. aim timjr kivit juu new uupa.

best beef herds in the United States and Canada, each one of which had produced at least one calf decidedly above the average of the herd from which tne cow was Each cow must have a sound, well-balanced udder and must have produced more milk than her calf was able to take during the early part of her period of lactation. Following this method of selection a variety of types has been secured, some individuals of which would not pass muster under the critical eye ot a judge looking for beefiness in a breeding female. Represented in the foundation stock are the herds of Cowan of Virginia, Carpenter Ross, Edwards and West of Ohio, Robbms and Silyerthorne of Indiana, Edwards of Canada, Brown, Forbes, Kreigh, Kilgour and Prather of Illinois, Leonard of Missouri, Saunders of Iowa, Kane of Nebraska, and Hill and Tom-son of Kansas. Many other herds are visited where suitable cows were found, but the owners refused to sell them. In a few instances correspondence indicated that the breeders were not particularly interested, but in the majority of instances the most hearty cooperation was secured, and animals were allowed to leave the farms with which the owners would not have parted in any other circumstances.

It will be noticed that the majority of the cattle come from the cornbelt and from herds which have made a reputation in the showyard and saler-ing. Individuals from the Augusta, Clipper, Mina, Secret, Gwendoline, Jealousy, Duchess of Gloster, Clara, Narcissus, Roan Lady, Marr Bessie, Orange Blossom, Lavender, Loyely and several Scotch-topped families are included in the foundation stock. The purpose was to secure cattle from herds and from families which were noted for the production of beef cattle. The cows were assembled at Manhattan, where they will be carried on pasture until calving time. So soon as calves are dropped they will be from their dams, placed on 726-208 N.

A eood ration consists of a mixture of equal parts ensilage and roots (two to three pounds), clover or mixed hay (two to three pounds) and a grain mixture starting at half a pound and fin ishing at one and a half pounds per day. A good grain mixture for this purpose consists of oats and bran, two parts each; linseed oil cake, one part, to which may be added toward the end of the fattening period two parts of corn. DREW THE LINE. Mr. George S.

Clason of Denver spent a year of his time and thousands of dollars investigating the free homestead lands of Colorado. He found out where these lands were located and what they were suited for. He found good, free homes waiting for tens of thouanads of families. He found new settlers making good in every part of the state, -ie lund that It was not necessary to irrigate to raise good crops. In fact he found out so many things of such great value to everyone who wants a farm, home that he decided to write a book and tell all the people about it Mr.

Clason's new book, "Free Homestead Lands of Colorado Described" Is the most complete and reliable guide for the settler ever pubksed of any western It contains 320 pags of maps, illustrations ana description. In this book you find an accurate, detailed description of the land In every township containing vacant land in the state, describing the surface, soil, timber, distance from railroad, elevation above sea level and cash value per acre. A careful study of this book gives you sufficient information to choose intelligently one of the most valuable pieces of land In the entire state. More than this, it tells you how other settlers are succeeding and what is accessary for you to do to succeed Just as well. Wlthi i the past forty days sixty families have secured excellent 320 acre homesteads in one township, only four miles from the railroad, because of Mr.

Clason's research work. We have secured a limited edition of Mr. Clason's nook, "Free Homestead Lands of Colorado, Described" in paper cover. The same book that thousands have been glad to buy at $2.00 per copy.

A junior and senior calf will be castrated each year and be developed as show steers. Thus the value of the calves on a beef basis and the ability of the cows to produce milk can be determined.

The bull to be used at the head of the herd is Matchless Dale, a son of Avondale and the sire of the Hrst-prize junior and senior Shorthorn steer calves and reserve champion at the 1913 International, the first-prize senior calf at the 1913 Royal, the champion steer 'of all breeds arid ages at the 1914 Denver show, and the first-prize steer calf at the 1914 Kansas State Fair, the only exhibit made last year. The first prize on the two-year-old Shorthorn steer, the first prize on the calf, and the first prize on the herd and the championship for steers wre awarded to the get of this bull at th 1915 American Royal. In other words, the head of the herd is a tried Shorthorn bull of beef tvpe. As an individual he would, if fitted, rank among the best aeed bulls of the breed. After the experiment ha3 progressed sufficiently, each year the best rnilk producing cow will, if possible, be bred to the Shorthorn bull whose calves have won in the get of sire classes at the International.

In this way it is hoped to keep the best beef blood in the herd and provide a check on the general matirgs. The ultimate pvtboss of the experiment is to determine whether or not beefiness is an attribute of sex. and in what way it is related to functional development. A careful study of the pedigrees of International and Royal championship winners indicates that a championship bull is apt to produce champions.
