N QOEEX UNCO OF CATTLE MARKET ' Sheep and Hogs Also Corns in for Their Share of Weird and S!"?gy Expresstone. "SUM" GULF hurkfhbf "Butcher Hob?" Are Meat Papular ?n# Must Be M Rl?ht Weight and Quality?"Mutton Bhaep" Art Fat (was and Wuthara. In the marketing of cattle, sheep and hogs, often queer terase are seed. Reporting the markets dally causes many a weird term to be coined and eventoally adopted Into the language. Here are given a number of common terms need in the courae of live atock . marketing. Even their users. In some Instances, will be enlightened as to the full meaning: Cattle Terms and Classse "Beef cattle" are the heavier, older, heifers or bulls, largely bought by the bigger slaughterers. "Butcher cattle" are usually trim . weight stock, either cows, or steers | or heifers, carrying good llesh weigh-1 Ing 550 to 1060 pounds and highly desirable for tpe city butcher trade. "Prime flnljhed" beeves are those that have been made strictly fat, gen-; erally of 0 to 12 months liberal feed j on grain, cake, molasses or other tried | rations "Ripe" is a similar term. 'Taney" beeves are those that have i the prime or ripe finish referred to' above and In addition carry full quality due to being high grade or pure bred stock. * "Good," "fair," "medium," "plain," "common" and "inferior" are terms applied to livestock In varying de grees of flesh, condition and quality as they range down the line under the grade of prime. 4 "Corn fed'1 beeves usually refer to cattle that ha.ve had two to three Prim* Finished Bhvm. months or longer ration of generous grain feed. "Short fed cattle" are those that hare had from two to three month* (time varying) of fairly generous ra tions. "Warmed np cattle" are those that hare been fed for a very brief period, generally three to six weeks?time | varying. "Orassers" are cattle presumably fitted for market on the range or pas ture alone. , "Canners" are poor thin anlgmls, furnishing only low grade meat salted only for marketing In the form of canned product. "Cutters" are animals one grade bet ter than canners, but yet not carrying enongh flesh to clans as beef types. "Scalawags," "shells," etc., refer to emaciated stock. "Heretics" Is a terra mostly applied to Inbred southern cattle between the Butcher Hogs. real and yearling stage, weighing gen erally ISO to MO pounds. "Slunk" is a prematurely born calf unmarketable. "Yearlings" refer to cattle beyond the j calf and under the two year class. "Heary yearlings" (southern) are stock generally weighing 275 to per-, hapa 4BO pounds. "Light yearlings" (southern) are cat tle generally weighing 150 to 275 pounds. . t ? ' I "Mnley" cattle are those that are without horns. "Dogey" catle ate line boned, trim southwestern stock, usually susceptible to quick finish an feed. A "quinine" steer In the trade par lance la a poor, inferior animal baring every appearance of disease, usually extremely Inbred. , ' "Sausage" or "bologna" bulla ale those not carrying flesh enough to be classed a# beef types. "Stocker" cattle are those suited fo go hack to the country primarily for further growth before being ready for I, feeding. Weights vary as to condl Hons, Often reaching up to 850 pound". "Feeder" cattle are those with sufil I clent growth and flesh tt? make them i sulwMs <or placing Immediately In ||e | foadiots. Weights usually 850 pounds SHOWING COWPEA IN 0*ATI0N Greater Variety and Larger Yield of Feed is Obtained and Easier to Cure. > CORN USED QUITE GENERALLY i ?:? Excellent Mixture fur Silage and la ?sing Extensively Uaed en Dairy Farm*?Sorghums and Kafirs J ,? t - I Prepared by lh* Ufiltvd stfttM Department it Agriculture ) Although the cowpea can be satia faetorlly grown alone. It la more ad vantageously grown for hay In com bination with other trops. When grown In this manner, not only la a greater variety'and larger yield of .feed ob tained. but the mixed hay la much mere easily cured and handled. Com is used quite generally with cowpeas, but only to a slighf extent for hay. The crop most widely used with cow pep* for hay Is sorghum, both sweet sorgliimys and kattrs. although other crops, such as sudfin grass, Johnson crass, soy beans and millet, are used #2' , Cowpsaa and Corn. The cowpea is an excellent crop to ;row with corn for silage, and It Is being used extensively for . this pur ;>ese mi many dairy farms, especially lit the northern part of the cowpea res. If grown with corn for other than .Huge purposes, cowpeas are allowed to ripen a fair percentage of pods vhich are gathered for seed and the >mnlnder pastured. This method noi >nly gives a crop of corn but also lUlflclent cowpea seed for sowing the next season, and the residue makes either u hay crop or a fair amount of gnsglng for stock. In many parts of Hie South, especially In the sugur ? ane districts of Louisiana, cowpeas instead of being pastured are harvest ed for hay after the corn has been gathered. ' Cowpsaa and Sorghum." Cowpeas grown. In combination with sorghum make an excellent hay or slhtge crop. As a hay crop this mix ture Is more easily cured than cow peas alone, constitutes a well-balanced nation, and Is relished by all klnd9 of .'arm stock. Both the sweet sorghums and the kafirs are psed. The Amber sorghum U most generally favored. yVhen grown In rows, the Sumac and orange varieties of sorghum are fully as good as the amber since'they grow larger and stronger plants. The whlp growing Witn Sorghut... poorwill, Irpn, unknown mid clay va rieties of cowpea require uboui the same time to mature as tile sorghums und therefore should be used In place ..f I lie earljei sorts. Harvesting with a mowing machine Is most satisfac tory. When sown "broadcast" for hay, the sowing is hest done with a grain drill on well-prepared land, the two kinds of seed being well mixed and sown'at the snme time. Usually the best rate, to sow is about one bushel of cow l>eas and half a bushel of sorgbum seed to the acre. Where the grain drill is not available for sowing, the cow tea seed .should be disked or harrowed In. and ,the sorghum should then be sown while the land Is rough, the ceil being covered with a drag bar ?o>y or weeder. Excellent ' results ale obtained by .owing cowpeas and sorghums togeth er in cultivated rews 2ft to 3 feet apart This method requires about to pounds of cowpeas and about one third of a bushel of sorghum seed to ?lie acre.
