Show THE SAUNA SUN. SAUNA, UTAn - Breeders in Move to Improve Stock Marked Interest Evinced in Idea Throughout the Nation. With URGENT Senator Capper was greatly amazed when told by a reporter that one of Washingtons most dashing debutantes was going to marry one of his oldest constituents. Meeting the young lady later In the day at the Chevy Chase club he ventured to take her to task. Why, that tottering old millionaire already has one foot In the grave, he expostulated. Yes, retorted the debutante, but he cant move the other one on account of rheumatism, so Im going to help him. the steady Increase in the number of enrollments In the Better Sires Better Stock campaign, sponsored by the United States Department of Agriculture for the Improvement of domestic live stock, there Is also developing a widespread Interest In Improved female stock. This Is brought out In a report covering nearly 12 years. Within this period 17,555 stock owners definitely signified their intention to use only pure bred sires for all their live stock. The report shows that these per- sons own nearly 2,000.000 head of breeding stock, both male and female. All the males are pure bred, but the females, as listed on the enrollment blanks, are classified as pure bred, cross bred, grade, or scrub. The camenpaign is intended principally to sires, courage the use of pure-brebut it is noteworthy that for every pure-bre- d sire owned by the participants including all kinds of live stock, except poultry there are 6 fefemales, 2 cross-brepure-bremales, 9 grade females, and 0.4 scrub females. Department specialists point out that these ratios indicate noteworthy live stock improvement. The ratio of 6 pure bred females to every sire is convincing evidence pure-brethat persons who begin to improve their live stock by Introducing purebred male breeding animals soon acquire purebred females as well. In the case of poultry the ratio Is still higher, being 14 pure bred females for male. each pure-breThe report shows also a list of 44 counties, each of which has more than 100 participants in the Better Sires Better Stock campaign. A new development in the campaign is a simplified form of enrollment blank which will eliminate henceforth the necessity of. listing breeding stock. The new blank is less complex in other respects also and has been designed particularly for the convenience of busy county agents and other extension workers engaged in live stock improvement activities. It carries illustrations of the certificate and barn sign which the departe users. ment grants to The blank likewise provides a space in which stock owners may request current publications on animal breeding. The report shows the progress of the campaign up to July 1, 1931, and is available to Interested stock-mecounty agents, and live stock officials. d TOO MANY ARMS d d Im always mixed up with some girl, although I try to use my head.

There are no religions or sects at the present time, 80 fur as we have been able to learn, which, according to our calendar, observe Monday, Wednesday and Thursday as the Sabbath. Even a large portion of the Mohammedans, particularly those in Turkey, have abandoned Friday In favor of the Christian Sunday. Many years ago some, writer made the broad statement that every day In the week Is set apart by some people as their Sabbath. He enumerated the holy days of the peoples as follows: Sunday is observed by most Christians ; Monday by the Greeks; Tuesday by the Persians; Wednesday by the Assyrians; Thursday by the Egyptians ; Friday by the Mohammedans, and Saturday by tbe Jews. This is a curious hodgepodge of fact and fiction. The enumeration is absurd, because the Egyptians, Greeks and Assyrians (whoever they may be) are nearly all Christians or Mohammedans of one sect or another. Evidently the writer, In order to prove his point about the perpetual Sabbath, included certain ancient religions now defunct. At any rate, his assertion abmit every day being the Sabbath of some religion is still frequently repeated by careless writers as representing an interesting fact.

This period is hastened and passed over with no lessening in the efficiency of the horse If the owner takes an hour in the spring to clip him. Imagine yourself doing a heavy job in warm weather and wearing your overcoat! Yet that is no more than the farmer expects of his horse when he puts him to the plow and harrow while still wearing the cold weather blanket of hair. But the horse isnt the only beneficiary. Hell pay for his clip with more work. He can be cleaned in half the time and a more thorough job of cleaning done. The clipped horse assimilates his food better and that means he requires less feed. He rests better and his actions show he feels Steer Classes Unchanged Oh, Dear I In many states a hunting license entitles you to one deer and no more. I see just like a marriage license.

The plan to classify steer competition at the international live stock exposition by weight rather than by age has been temporarily abandoned, according to Secretary B. H. Helde. The classification by ages will be maintained at the 1931 exposition as in the past. Purchases of prospective show animnls by exhibitors prior to the suggested change and the granting of appropriation by breed associations on the present basis are the reasons for not making any change this year. This years show will be held November 28 to December 5. Fall Pigs In order to make good gains on the fall pigs and to bring them through the winter months in a thrifty condition, they need to be given a good start Strong, vigorous young pigs are well on their way towards making profits for their owners next spring. They should not be weaned until eight or ten weeks of age. Also, if they are trained to eat grain in a creep away from the sow, they will lose little flesh at weaning time. Keep the beds dry an' provide quarters free from drafts. Dry feeding Is better in winter than slop. Seed in Fall for Lawn There will be fewer anxious moments about the fate of the new lawn if it is seeded in the fall with the coming of fall rains, says S. W. Decker, of the floricultural division at the University of Illinois. Early fall seeding gives time to make a good, deep root growth and be ready to withstand the winter. Late fall seeding after October 10, is not recommended, as the alternate freezing and thawing will heave the shallow-rooteplants and they will disappear. d Q mtfui JxwJl CONTEST CLOSES MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, MIDNIGHT Assist Horse to Shed Coat by Clipping Him better.
