BROWN Sc CARPENTER, KDITOIU) AND PtiaM.lt.IUI. L. P. WINTER, Contributing Editor. A GREATINDUSTRYFOR CO WETA The South will not be what it should be until the majority of her farmers be come breeders and feeders of livestock. This does not necessarily mean that they should keep a large number of animals, nor does it mean that all our farmers should go into live stock raising as a business, but it does mesn that no country can succeed to the full est extent until the farms are well sup plied with live stock. It goes without saying that well-bred animals are the profitable kind, whether it be cows, hogs, or other stock; and, generally, money expended for founda tion stock is the best money the far mer can spend. It often provides the means with which to buy a farm, or lifting a mortgage on one already bought. In the past many inferior animals have been sent Into the South by Northern breeders, which for a time bad a tendency to discourage our far mers. The fact that ttyta section has been used as a dumping-ground for culls in many instances, together with very high freight rates in shipping sin gle animals from the North, has pre vented live stock farming—especially cattle-rsiBing — from developing os rapidly as conditions would apparently warrant; but at last the South is com ing into her own. Mr. R. F. Shedden, of Atlanta, by persistent advertising has put Raymond, Coweta county, Ga., “on the map.” This thriving town has rapidly grown into a prosperous manufacturing cen ter. With the same firm faith and en thusiasm for live stock, he is likewise putting it on the live stock map—and especially as the very center of the shorthorn cattle industry of the cutton belt. , Shorthorns were selected on account of their adaptability to Southern con ditions, and because of the absolute necessity for a dual purpose breed in the South. In this class stands the short horn alone and unoqualed. The short horn cow is the type that will return the double profit-producing elements of milk and beef, and when her usefulness is ended she may be easily fattened and made to yield a fair return on the block. If cattlo-raising is to be highly profita ble our efforts must bo with cattle of this type, which exist, and has existed for a hundred and fifty years, In the shorthorn breed. The South iB being developed into more small farms and farm-owners, who must (and will) keep live stock. It is not profitable to keop strictly beef animals that give only enough milk for the calf, nor is it wlso under general 'conditions to keep cows solely for the milk. A combination animal is required ‘to fulfill the needs of our section. No <cow meets that requirement so accep tably as the shorthorn. Shedden Farms will hereafter be headquarters for fine shorthorns. In developing this business on a big scale no expense will be spared in breeding and collecting animals that will meet the requirements bb Bet forth above. In this work Mr. Shedden has associ ated with him men who understand the needB of the South, and aro capable of assembling and distributing cattle of the right kind and at tho least possible expense to the purchaser. Many cattle will be bred at Shedden Farms, and those brought in will be shipped in car lots, thus placing them in the vory heart of the South at tho lowest possible cost. They will be brought right to the door of the farmer, where he can select for him self, with a big saving in freight rates. Another great advantage is the fact that the American Shorthorn Breeders’ Association is backing up every animal offered for Bale, which assures the far mers of the South that they will get good-value for their money, whether they visit the farm or not. Mr. T. G. Chastain, one of the best- known cattlemen in the South, and an expert judge of shorthorns, has lately been appointed Southern representa tive of this association, and will per sonally inspect and approve every ani mal sent out from Shedden Farms. Such an opportunity has never been offered the Southern farmer before, and money invested in such cattle is worth more to many farmers than bank account. The cattle secured for Shedden Farms will be bought for cash at the lowest figures, and those raised will be grown as economically as can be done any where in the world. They will be kept in large numbers and of all ages, and handled in such a way that tine animals can be sold as low as $125 each. These animals are such as frequently sell in the North at from $200 to $250 each with long-distance freight rates added. The farms are under the direct man agement of Mr. C. W. Fowler, formerly of Marietta, Ga., who is a natural born stockman, with a lifetime experience WHAT CATARRH IS It has been said that every third person has catarrh in some form. Science has shown that nasal catarrh often indicates a general weakness of the body; and local treatments in the form of snuffs and vapors do little, if any good. To correct catarrh you should treat its cause by enriching your blood with the oil-food in Scott’s Emulsion which is a medicinal food and a building-tpnic, free fromalcoholoranyharmfuldrugs. Tryit. Scott A Do woe, Bloomfield, N. J. C. W. F.OWLEB. Experienced stockman now In chxraro of Shedden Fermx. at Raymond. both in the South and across the coun try in the corn belt. He has been at it since he was 10 years old, and last year bred and sold more prize-winning hogs at Meridian, Miss., Birmingham, Ala., Macon and Augusta, Ga., than any other five breeders combined. He is no less a lover of the blocky shorthorn, which he says (b “king of the cattle world and the salvation of the South, so far as cattle are concerned.” All orders and communications will receive his personal attention. We are proud of Shedden Farms. We are glad they are located in Coweta county, and hope every farmer in the South who can will visit the farms and see for himself the vast advantage of owning cows such as are bred there. If President Wilson doesn't get rid of Postmaster-General Burleson and John Skelton Williams, Comptroller of the Currency, before the campaign opens he will have a lot of explaining to do before the people. These eminent worthies appear to labor under the de lusion that they are the mainstay of the Administration, and are making aBorry mess of it. Liven Up Your Torpid Liver.
