Driving Horses.


Driving horses begins with the colt,
says the Ohio Farmer, and as he is bro
ken, that is the kind Of horse he will
make. If he is broken as a SLOUGH, that
is the kind he will be. 1t is just as easy
to break a colt right as any other way.
Some are in too big hurry. They Will
take green colt, hitch him up aud spend
as much time ia looling around with him
as it would take to break him as he should
be. Our idea is to have tho colt thor
oughly broke before you attempt to hitch
him up; that is, to get him SO he is not
afraid Of the harness SO he will stop when
you tell him TO. Teach him to back, 20
ahead, and net be afraid OF the tugs, even
when drawn between his hind logs Do
not whip him unless it is actually ntcessa-
ry. Better caress than whip, especially if
he is Of a nervous temperament Add all
the style you can, for that is what sells
for money. II your horse is broken as he
should be, you know when aud where you
can trust him without being kicked or run
away with, and If broken in a slouchy way
you can never trust him. Some like to
see nice horses, but are too "shiGless" to
have any of their owl. They are either
too lazy to take care of them or are too big
slouches to hitch them up as they should
be, to drive well. Some yell at their horses
as though they were deaf This does no
good, as it only aggrayates them and makes
them worse. Be gentle with your horse,
and he will be gentle with you. Do not
jerk him as though he had no feelings.
Imagine yourself in his place, with an iron
bit in your mouth and somebody jerking
at the rate Of five hundred pounds min
ute, as some Of them do when they get
mad, and swear because the horse has got
out Of his place. Stop aud think, is it the
horse or you that is to blame.

To BE- 4 Successful Farmer.

Many years Of experience and obserYa-
ton have taught that two things arc abso-
lutely necessary to profitable farming the
first settled policy, and the second thor
ough pulyerization aud manuring. What
is meant BY settled policy is that far
mer should ascertain the crops best suited
to his land, as well as to the demands Of
the market and having decided on these,
to stick to them through thick aud thin,
whatever the fluctuations IN price. He viii
fluid it to hit oftener than miss, which is not
the case with those who jump about from
one thing to another, with no settled rule
to 90 by. No man should ever engage in
special business Of any kind merely be-
cause some other individual has made mon
ey by it. 1t requires long experience to
grow aud market successfully any special
crop, such as broom corn, tobacco, etc.,
and we had better increase our experience
with such products as We know than to hy
to new ones, about the handling or cult
walton Of which We know but little or
nothing. II is in the better culture aud
manuring, 10 farming, that the greatest
improvements are made. The most effec-
tual way to lessen the cost Of production
is to increase tho yield per acre. There
are hundreds of farmers who for years
have been eultiya,ing forty acres of corn
for two hundred barrels, aud twenty acres
of wheat for two hundred bushels, aud yet
find it hard work to get along, To all
such we should say, put half the land in
clover aud give such cultivation aud fer
tilization to the other half as will enable
you to raise as much grain on the thirty
acres as you are now doing on the whole
sixty, And although this could not be
expected to be accomplished ia single
year, yet there is no question that time
would soon bring ii about. If you think
the sixty acres are too much for you to
undertake at once, try it on few acres,
and We will answer for it that after you
have harvested thirty bushels OF wheat or
seventy five bushels of corn to the acre on
these, you will be SO disguised with your
old practice of growing the third of it that
you will be very willing to increase the
area Of your heavier producing lands.

GREAsINd WAGoNs.-The plan Of
grcasing wagons by which Mr. Babcock, Of

One of the best things in the world to
give a horse, after ho has been driven, is
a quart Of oatmeal stirred into pail Of
water. Il refreshes and strengthens him,
relieves his immediate thirst, and prepares
his stomach for more solid food. Its like
the plato of soup before dinner, satisfying
and appetizing together.

Experiments in Germany shows that il
potatoes are fed to milch cows they should
be cooked. Raw potatoes will give larg-
er yield Of milk but less butter than cook
ed ones. In the case referred to, raw pc.
tatoes were first added TO the daily rutions
of hay, straw and other materials. The
result was that with raw potatoes the ra-
ton gave 1921 pounds of milk per week
yielding 81 pounds of butter, while with
cooked potatoes it gave 24sl pounds Of
milk, yielding 81 pounds of butter
