Keep Stock In Good Condition. The profit of farming, says the American Cultivator, depends more in these days upon the kind and condi tion of farm stock than on any other one factor. At theapproach of winter comes a matter of the greatest im portance. It used to be common to kt auimals run down in flesh at this season, not purposely, but because the farmer thought that as long as cattle t - and sbe4p could get a living on;frosted grass it would be a waste to take them into the barn and feed them grain, But it is much more easy to retain tat and flesh on animals than it is to re gain either after a period of starvation. During the running down process there is a weakness of vitality, and especial ly of the digestive organs, until, at last, even an abundance ot the most nutri tious food does the animals no good. Animals past their prime, and whose vitality is naturally small, suffer the worst. We have seen old sheep and ! even old cows get so poor in the fall that the most tender care during the winter could not save them until the spring. There are extreme cases, of course, but it is reasonable to suppose that any falling offin condition must result 4 in some loss. Not that animals, es pecially those intended Tor breeding, should be fattened. Fat is not thrift. It is the hearty, and in young animals, growing condition, that should at all times be fostered. There should al ways be an abundance of nourishing food, enough to properly distend the stomach and give.the digestive organs abundant exercise. This is especially necessary for animals bearing young, and that for a reason not often con sidered. The ability to feed well, important as it is known to be, is large ly hereditary. We see this in all ani mals bred especially for their fattening . characteristics. Take the most thor oughly bred shorthorn cow, herself an “ excellent feeder, falling into the hands ot a careless, negligent farmer, and half starved during the time she is bearing her calf, and what is the re sult? Nine times out of ten she will bear,a scrub, inheriting not the thrifty characteristics of either parent, but bearing through life the condition im posed upon it during its parental ex istence by the starvation and suffering *• of its dam. We have been much impressed, while visiting fairs this year, with the ttmt 'the excellence of iflbttU, no matter liow thoroughly it is fired, must, after all, mainly depend on the time and skill given to the care of it. Men some times say that people make for themselves their condition in life. If this be true anywhere it is especially so in stock growing. A careful, skil- friT'and intelligent farmer" will have good stock, even though he does not indulge in fancy or expensive strains of thoroughbred and registered stock 1,000 But, in the olden times, when pedi- grees were unknown, the.difference in (arm stock ot the good farmer and of ( the lazy and careless one was nearly as marked as it is , now. The good farmer’s stock grows better, while the others as steadily grows poorer. Even for milk production, as is well $ .known to most farmers, a hearty, thrif ty cotidition is quite as important as it is for the production of fat. No cow was ever a good milker, or. of much value for dairy purposes, that was not a good feeder. We may say the same of any animal bearing young. The size, vigor and vitality of the unborn animal are fixed l>y the condition of . jts dam while bearing it fin ...VM. - tout!
