A driver should not become excited because
the horse does, nor try to use brute force against
brute force. In this case the strongest brute
generally comes out winner.

Young horses should not be overloaded nor
underfed; neither should older ones. weak
horse should not be worked beside . strong one,
since It Is difficult to properly equalze the draft

There is no better grain than rye for grinding
and feeding. 1t makes all young animals grow
strong, and ite price in the market is fully such
as to warrant the sowing.
ANY horse may be subdued BY q competen
horseman who is up in his business. A cool
common-eenec driver gets the most work out
team, whether it be pulling . load or driving
on the road. He never over-taxes his team
never overloads.i it with harness, does not try to
make trotter out Of q draft-horse, nor a road
ster out OF scrub-bred horse. He feeds vel
waters carefully, knows that everything abou
the team, harness, and wagon is correct, and
trains his team SO it will fear nothing 80 much
as to disobey the driver.
Those who have the Red Jersey hogs in the

all the horse needs when in health.

sheep under shelter 100 pounds of turnips are
required for making one pound Of mutton. II
fed without shelter the quantity required will
be $50 pounds. No wonder Western feeders,

is remembered that the climate is by no meanl
favorable to the cultivation Of this vegetable.

quently ends in loss. His crops are never sure,
sometimes they fall entirely, but he has steady
outgo for labor and frequently has to draw on
capital for payment. 1t is, therefore, wise to
make every provision against loss, otherwise he
may find hired labor unremunerative.
