They are solid red in color, arid in conforma- tion incline more to the beef type than the dual purpose type. They are slow- er in growth than the beef breeds and they have. therefore. not become so popular throughout the entire country as their other qualities might lead one to expect.

Their color may be red, red and white. pure White or roan. HE Devon is a much older breed than the Red Polls. having been introduced into this country so early that they were popular in New England and parts of Virginia 3 cen- tury ago. At that time the cows were recognized as good milkers. while the steers were used both for work oxen and for beef. The Devon cattle are vigorous. hardy and good rusflers. A: MILKING SHORTHORN COW ORPHA AND CALI“ OWNED BY THE MINNESOTA 83° PERI NEXT STATION. In the United States the principal dual purpose breeds are certain types of the Shorthorn. the Red Polls. the Devons and the Brahman. or ”Indian" cattle. The latter, however. are not strictly dual purpose cattle and are or importance only in the extreme south. is in a position to manage a large herd the beef breeds will probably be more profitable. For the small farm- er who can keep only a few cattle and must depend upon those he does keep to produce milk and butter for his family the dual purpose breeds are possibly better suited. P :1“ these the most popular is the 0 dual purpose Shortborn. In this breed the characteristics of the boot bred Shorthorn hare been some- what modified in order to develop the milking qualities. The cows are longer [Prepared by United States department of agriculture.) HE high prices of meat that have prevailed for years in the United States have led men who hither- to have not thought or the matter to consider the possibility of raising beet cattle. For the man about to engage in this business one or the most im- portant questions is the breed he is to select. Beet cattle are divided into two general classes, the strictly beet breeds and the dual purpose breeds. For the ranchman and the farmer who MERITS OF THE BRAHMAN CATTLE. THE POPULAR SHORTHORN.

Selecting Breeding Hogs. In pig breeding selection should be made on the points of good broad back at the loin, well mated legs down to the hock and knee joints. There should be as thick meat on the inside as on the outside of the leg. with good heart team and straightness on the back from shoulders to ham. The hind half of the animal should be the largest and heaviest. for in that part lies the highest priced meat. The butchers and meat sellers select the thick backed heavy hemmed pigs. Cottonseed Meal For Horses. Cottonseed meat makes a very good supplement to a home's feed when fed along with corn. Experiments made at the Iowa experiment station show that corn mixed with cottonseed meal in the proportion of nine parts corn to one part cottonseed meal makes a very satisfactory feed for the working horse. Some men do not recommend feeding cottonseed meal to brood mares. In many parts of the south horses are fed cottonseed meal mixed with corn at about the rate of one part of cottonseed meal to five parts of corn when the animal is working. with the quantity increased for a horse on heavy work. it is probably not safe, however. to mix it with the corn in much greater proportion than one part or cottonseed meal to tire parts of cornâ€"Iowa Homestead. A very good dip can he made from crude petroleum by using tour gallons of crude oil. sateen gallons of water and a pound ot sort soap. A larger amount or soap may be necessary in some kinds of water in order to prop- erly emulsify the oil. The soap should be thoroughly dissolved In water be- fore adding the on and the mixture should be thoroughly churned. The quarters which the hogs are oc- cupying must always be thoroughly disinfected or the animals will rein- fec-t themselves unless shifted to fresh quarters. Where the true mange IS present every post or tree which the hogs have been rubbing against must be thoroughly dismt‘eetea with some strong disinfectant. Mangy. lousy hogs can never become a source at profit to the owner. They should by all means be treated tor these ailments. The Stock Boar. Exercise is one or the essentials in maintaining a vigorous. thrifty animal, and this applies to the stock boar in full. Some form of pen or run should be provided to give him sufficient space to take all the exercise he needs. If he 23!! be kept in a pen without a floor except where he must sleep bet- ter results in sound feet and legs will be noticeable. Heavy boars are often of little value from having been al- lowed to stand too long on a cement floor or even a plank floor. Here the feet will become dry and sorefrom the heavy weight of the body and the unyielding nature'ot the floor. He must have a good bed. which. when soiled. must be replaced with fresh material. Swine Afflicted With Skin Diseases Make Little Profit From Feed. Hogs sometimes get maugy. The skin becomes sore and (.‘l'ilC’kt‘d. and the hog is in a generally unhealthy condition. The first treatment for the mange is to give the animal a vigorous scruhhing with a brush. using soft water and soap. After the animal has been thor- oughly scrubbed it should be routed with some of the various coal tar dips which are on the market. These dips give very satisfactory results it used in accordance with directions. They should he warmed to about 110 degrees I“. to give the best results. In order to make the treatment ell’ective the hog must be thoroughly covered with the dip. lf the tank is used it should he completely immersed and should he kept in the tank about two minutes. It is necessary to repeat the treatment one or more times at intervals ot about. eight days. Where the mange ls prev- alent in a herd the whole herd should be treated. POUND CAW'BOY.

The table in the presence of enemies will have a great fulfillment at the be- ginning ot' the next age, when He will come in glory for Israel‘s deliverance. It will then be a feast of fat things, when He will take away the rebuke of His people from off all the earth (Isa. xxv, 0-9). For the believer there is always a feast, and we may be day by day satisfied with the fatness of His house and drink of the river of His measures. (1‘s. xxxvi, .8). It is a reâ€" proach to the Lord when His people are seen seeking satisfaction at the world‘s table. When truly anointed with the Holy Spirit we shall so enjoy the Lord and His fullness that there shall be an overflow for Others, but how few seem to overflow! Some one has said that with the Lord going be- fore (John K. 4) and with goodness and mercy following (verse 6) we are cared for as only heaven can care for us. Then to think of our forever home, from which we shall go no more out (John xiv. 1-3); only unbelief can make us sad. May our hearts ever respond to “Let us be glad and rejoice and give honor to Him“ (Rev. xix. 7). The expression “the shadow of death” is just one word and is found ten times in Job, four times in the Psalms and four times in the prophets. It may refer to the whole time of our sojourn here for we may be said to be always in the shadow of death, but: the believer can always say. “I will fear no evil.” for to the child of God death is always gain and very far better (Phil. i, 21. 23). Death is never spoken of as the coming of Christ, for, although death brings gain to the be- liever. it is always an enemy, the last: enemy to be destroyed (I Cor. xv. 26). In life or death, if we are His. He is always with us to guide. comfort. SUS' tain, protect us and assures us that. He Will never leave us or fail us (Deut. xxxi, S; Isa. xii, 10, 13; Heb. xiii, 5). All the shepherds, such as Abel, Ja- eoh. Joseph, Moses and David. were womlrously typical of the Good Shep- herd. and the women also. such as Rachel and Zilmoruh. who kept sheep, give us murh to meditate upon. but all renters upon Him who is altogether lovely and of whom our souls say, "My meditation of Ilim shall be sweet; I will be glad in the Lord" (Song v, 16; 1‘5. eiv, 3â€"1). The sequent-es of Scrip- ture are most interesting and helpful studies. and in Psalm xxii. xxiii. xxir, we have one of the most. wonder- ful. l‘s. xxii tells very fully of His sufferings, as if written by an eye- witness: speaks of His hands and feet pierced. Iii." garments divided and lots east upon His vestu re. and quotes some of the very words flung at Him as He hung upon the cross, but it also tells of the resurrection and the kingdom. PS. xxiii suggests Israel's glory in the millennial kingdom. and Ps. xxiv tells of the King of glory ruling the Whole world in righteousness. No one can truly say "The Lord is my Sliex'sherd" who has not seen Him dying in their stead. bearing their sins in His own body and received Ilim as their own Saviour (Gal. ii. :20; 1 Pet. ii, ‘24; John i. 12: Bull. i. (i. Tl. Then only can we be sure that we shall never want any good thing. for He who snared not His own Son will with Him also freely give us all things (Ps. xxxiv. 9. 10: lxxxiv. 11; Rom. viii, 32). It is impossible that such a Shop- herd could withhold from any of His sheep anything really good for them. This most familiar of all the psalms to many people is as farreaching as any and will have its complete fulfill- ment only in the kingdom when Isa. xl, 10, ll; Jer. xxiii, 5. (i; Ezek. xxxvii, 21-28. shall be fulfilled in the eyes of all nations. with every other prediction concerning Israel’s future glory. All the true shepherds and shepherdesses of the Bible are suggestive of Christ and Israel. with some reference also to Christ and His church. He is pri- marily the Shepherd of Israel. leading Joseph like a flock. dwelling between the chernhim (PS. lxxx. 1). He is also the Good Shepherd giving His life for the sheep and giving eternal life to His sheep, the sheep of His pasture (John x. 11, 27. 28: PS. c. 3). He is the Great Shepherd risen from the dead, by whom God works in His people that which is well pleasing in His sight 4110]). xiii, :20. 21). He is also the chief Shepherd, who. at the resurrection of the just. will give the crowns to those who have won them and among others the crown of glory to those who have faithfully lo“ the flock (1 Pet. v. 1-4). Pastures of tender grass and waters of quietness «Ps. ii, margin). such would 110 have us enjoy always if we would only keep close to Him and not stray away like a lost sheep, choosing our own pasture and causing Him to grieve over us. saying, “Oh. that my people had hearkened unto me and Israel had walked in my ways” (Ps. lxxxi, 11-16). Although none of His sheep can ever perish. they may wan- der and need restoration, as when Da- vid said. “I have gone astray like a lost sheep: seek thy servant.” or. again, ‘ lestore unto me the joy of Thy salva- tion” (1‘s. exix. 176; li, 12). He will be glad to lead us in the paths of right- eousness if we are only willing to be thus led. Thus only can we foretaste the kingdom and know something of its peace and quietness and assurance.
