BREEDING OF CATTLE
DEPARTMENT RKIM.dK* TO SQM IS
* QUESTIONS ON THIS INTER
ESTING SUBJECT.
EEREFORDS FOR BEEF
About 100 of This Brood ai<V Shorl
borim Hove lieeoiitly Boon Im
ported Into the State.
Questions. —1. What is being done
to secure for the farmers of Georgia
pure bred cattle that have been so thor
oughly acclimatized that they will not
die prematurely upon the fanners’ hands':
2 Would it not pay some enterprising
person or firm to establish a stook farm
and keep pure bred cattle that have be
come immune ugainst the diseases that
have sausod such discouragement to the
breeders of improved cattle in Georgia?
3. Could not the Prison Commission
do something ou this line by purchasing
a herd of pure bred cattle for the pur
pose of selling them between the ages of
2 and 12 months to only those persons
in Georgia who will bo bound by law to
use such cattle for breeding purposes
alone, and m this state ?
A nswEK —l. The Agricultural Depart
ment, in co-operation with Mr. Wade of
the Sonthorn railway, Mr. Sawtell, Mr.
T. H. Martin, Dr. Hunnicut and others,
caused to be brought to Atlanta during
the late Interstate Fair more than UXJ
Hereford and Shorthorn beef cattle of
from four to 12 mouths old. Coming
from an infeoted section of Texas
they are considered acclimatized ami
immune. Some of them were pure
breeds and others from threo-fourths to
seven-eighths pure breed. Judges pro
nounced them as tine buof cattle as wore
ever exhibited in a southern state. Prob
ably oue-half of tho Herofords were
bought at choap rates and sold at from
$35 to $5O each. About three-fourths of
those cattle were sold during the fair in
Atlanta and the remainder at the Val
dosta fair and distributed over various
aeotions of the state. Good results are
hoped for from this fresh imix>rtatiou
and distribution of improved cattle.
Answer to 2 and 8. It has been sug
gested by some of our correspondents in
terested in this subject that the legis
lature might well appropriate a reason
able, fund and authorize the prison
commission to purchase for the pri-xin
farm near Milledgeville a herd of pure
blood beef cattle, to be sold while be
tween the ages of 2 and 12 months to
only thoso persons in tho state of Geor
gia who will bind themselvos to uso such
cattle for breeding purposes alone and
only in this state. Wo think this a good
suggestion.
Hero we would urge that Hereford3
be brod for beef and kept separate from
the Jerseys, which should be reserved
for dairy purposes. It should bo remem
bered that the pure dairy strain is far
removed from the pure hoof strain.—

DAIRYING IN GEORGIA.
Outlook Is More Encouraging Thau
Ever Before.
The dairy outlook for 1000 is more en
couraging in Georgia than for any time
in the past and those now engaged in
the business may well enter upon the
uew season with moro thau ordinary
confidence. Never before lias this state
had more enthusiastic men at the fore
front of the dairy interest. They are
reaching out for new methods aud bet
ter equipment in evory branch of this
great industry. The dairy herds are
being continually improved. It is true
that there are yet many poor oows found
in the dairy herds, but the day of the
“scrub” oow is rapidly passing.
We are finding out that only the best
breeds are worth the keeping, and Geor
gia is now putting upon the market

W. S. LANIER,
Statham, Qa. %
United States. Wo were gratified to
learn at tho recent meeting of the Dairy
men’s association at Griffin that an ex
hibit of Georgia butter won the silver
medal in a contest with the world’s but
ter at the Paris exposition. The butter
was made at the creamery iu LaGrange.
Ex-Governor Hoard of Wisconsin, who
has made dairying a life time business,
was present at tho Griffin meeting, and
delighted his audienoe of more than 500
dairymen from different sections of our
state, by saying that he could see no
reason why Georgia should not forage to
the front of the dairy states of tho
Union.
If the Georgia legislature will now
give the dairymon an up-to-date veteri
nary surgeon, and make provisiou for
tho enforcement of the dairy laws now
on the statute books against the manu
facture of bogus butter, we see no rea
son why Georgia may not within the
next decade make long strides toward
the fulfillment of Governor Hoard’s pre
diction. State Agricultural Depart
