Devoted to the Agricultural, Commercial and Industrial Interests of White County
Intelligent And Progressive
Agriculture.
The whole world over, the most
enlightened and progressive agri¬
cultural districts are found where
iiyestock provides one of the chief
sources of income. This is due to
several reasons. The livestock
farmer can not live from hand to
mouth, but must buy in a store of
feed for his animals throughout the
winter months. This same care
and thought is then carried into his
>lher activities. Under some sys¬
tems of farming the returns all
come in at once, which makes for
extravagance and idleness,with the
the result of poverty until another
crop is harvested. On the other
hand, under most systems of live
stock fanning, the income is se¬
cured several times during the year
The care and control of animals,
which are intelligent, tends to de¬
velop the best instincts in man and
make him kindly, self-ieliant and
trustworthy. The good stockman
grows proud of his sleek, well bred
animals, and derives a satisfaction
therefrom not measured in money.
With pride he may hand down to
his sons his reputation as a breeder,
He is also able to leave them fer¬
tile fields which he has built up
rather than robbed; a heritage left
by but few grain farmers.
In the esrly days, with land low
in price, pasturage abundant, and
feed and labor cheap, making a
profit from live stock raising was
easy. Conditions have now chang¬
ed. The great western fields no
longer ollef nett field; tree for the
taking, and hence throughout the
country fertile land has advanced
in price, likewise an increase in
cost of labor and feed stuff. But
the price of livestock products has
also advanced, so that satisfactory
profits may still be made from farm
animals. However present condi¬
tions call for a more intelligent
type of stock farming than has
ruler! in the past. Good profits are
possible only when all the opera¬
tions are planned intelligently and
with good judgment.
What branch of stock farming is
best suited to White county?
No doubt nine farmers out of
every ten would say cattle, and
they would be right.
What kind o( cattle; beef or
dairy ?
On this question there is a great
diflierence of opinion. In compar¬
ing stock farming with grain farm¬
ing we reasoned that where the in¬
come was secure more often, con¬
ditions were better. Will not the
same be true in choosing between
the beef and dairy cow? As land,
labor, and feed increase in price,
the dairy cow will more and more
displace the strictly meat produc¬
ing farm animals, for she produces
human food with far greater econ¬
omy than does tlie steer, sheep or
P'h'
The fattening steer when mak¬
ing a gain of i 5 pounds weeklk
produces in that time 1,13 pounds
of protein mostly in the form of
water, free lean meat. In the same
| time the cow yielding 30 pounds of
milk daily produces 7.67 pounds of
casein nnd albumen, or nearly six
times as much of the same sub¬
stance. While the steer is laying
on 9.53 pounds of fat, the cow puts
7.35 pounds of fat into her milk.
She also secretes 9.67 pounds of
sugar, against which there is no
j equivalent substance produced by
the steer. Changing this sugar
j to its fat equivalent fat equivalent the cow yields
more or than the
] steer. The steer stores 0.22
j of ash in his bones, while the cow
puts into her milk 1.57 pounds of
ash, or over six times as much.

It’s Better To Buy Than
To Borrow Your County Paper
Tlmt those in White county who
do not subscribe for their county
paper, the Courier, may avert u
iike or similar experience to the
one stated in the following lines,
we print this unfortunate alleged
experience :
“A man who was too stingy to
subscribe for bis home paper sent
his little hoy to borrow the copy
taken by a neighbor. In his haste
the boy run over a SfT stand of bees
and in ten minutes looked like a
warty summer squash. His fat her
ran to bis assistance, and failing to
notice the barbed wire fence, rati
into that, cutting a hole in his
atanomy and ruining it $5 pair of
trousers. The o.ld cow took advan¬
tage of the gap in the fence and
got into the corn field and killed
herself eating green corn. Hearing
a racket, the wife ran out, upse|
(our gajlon churn fulhof Geaiu
a a basket of tittle chickens,drown¬
ing the entire hatch. In her hasle
she dropped a $35 set of false teeth.
The baby, having been left alone,
crawled through the milk into the
parlor, ruining a brand new $25
carpet. During file excitement
the oldest daughter ran away with
the hired man, the dog broke up
11 silting hens and the calves got
out and chewed the tails off of four
fine shirls on the clothes line.—

pound fat steer fed at that station
At the same station a Holstein cow
gave in one year 18,405 pounds of
milk. The following table shows
the total nutriments in the milk
and the body of the steer:
Dairy cow vs. steer as producer of human food
Dry matter in Dry matter in
1 K405 hi mi!k 1250 .bs steer
lbs lbs
Protein substance 552 172
Fat 618 333
Sugar 920 none
Mineral matter 128 43
Total 2218 548
The steer’s body contained about
56 per cent water, leaving 548
pounds of dry matter, which in¬
cluded not only the dry lean meat
and fat, but also all other parts of
the body, horns, hoofs, hair, hide,
bones, and internal organs. In
one year tlie cow produced 2218
pounds of dry matter which was
wholly digestible and suitable for
human food. In that time she pro¬
duced enough protein to build the
bodies of three such steers, fat suf
ficent for nearly two, and mineral
matter enough for 3, besides 920
pounds of milk sugar, which is as
nutritious as I he same weight of
cane sugar.
The figures show the remarkable
efficiency of the cow as a producer
of human food. It is because of
this economical use of feed that the
dairy cow is kept on high priced
land. When land is cheap and
feed abundant the meat producing
animals should be kept, but when
the land becomes higher in value
and feed expensive, the farmer
should turn to the dairy cow.
