Tho FnII Coli.

Each year finds greater number of fall
colts in this country, and each years expe-
rience with them favors that plan of breed
ing. In advocating the practice of fall
breeding the Orange Judd Farmer makes
the following good points The autumn
months are preferable to July and August
rs a time for dropping foals. The battle for
life in mid summer is great deal more
difficult for the colt than many would be-
lieve. The hot sun aud flies are not the
only objections against the practice of sum
mer breeding. 1t is more difficult to regu-
late the diet of the dam in summer in the
pasture than in the fall On the average
farm with the harvest absorbing time and
attention in July, one fourth, at least, of
the foals in this month are permitted to die
from neglect Loss of dam, too, is not in
frequent where parturitou occurs in the
pasture at mid day, with the thermometer

more severe, but neither extreme in wealth
er is a time to be Indifferent in the least de
gree TO the brood mare aud her young. As
n rule the colt on many farms will begin
life almost as well in October as in the
months of May or June. The mother can
often be spared from heavy work better
then than in spring and summer More
time can be spared in the winter weather to
attend to feeding both dam and colt Judi
ciously. And defects in the colts health
are more readily noticed, where it is kept in

colts care for proper growth.
The fall colt, too, is handled more and
is more completely acquainted with a man

colt The latter at six months to a year
old in winter has often grown shy from a
wild pasture life, and this shyness is not
overcome except 10y special and protracted

The ECONOMY of Nea,ne.-.

Half an hours drive through almost any
AGRICULTURAL district is sufficient to show
that some farmers, at least, esteem as lost
all time which is spent in putting things to
rights about their buildings and premises.
Farm implements lie exposed to the wealth
err wherever they chance to be dropped.
Fences exhibit dilapidated and infirm APP
pearance, and some, perhaps, are wholly
broken down and useless, Shingles and
clapboards hang or tlutter in the breeze, and
chimneys are sometimes seen which are
only kept from lettering to their ruin 10y
makeshift stays and braces
A state of things more or less like this
sometimes exists where the crops are found
to he well titled and harvested, with the
uniform result of good profit. Happily,
cases of such extreme sloveniness are not
frequent, but they are 10y no means un-
known. and the tendency to neatness and
systematic care is still SO far from unlver
sal that "a word or two upon the subject
may not be amiss.
In the first place, the prudent farmer is
not to suppose that time spent in these mat
t.rs is pecuniary loss To himself. 1t is
only the poorest economy which allows
farm tools To lie out III the fields or else

Try Motto Cough.

A physician who is connected with an
institution which contains many children
says There is nothing more irritating
to cough than to cough. For some time
| had been so fully assured of this that
recently determined if possible, for one
minute, at least, to lessen the number of
coughs heard in certain ward in the hos
pital of the institution BY the promise of
rewards and punshments, | succeeded in
inducing them simply to hold their breath
when tempted to cough and in Il little
while | was myself surprised TO see how
some Of the children entirely recovered
from their disease
Constant coughing is precisely like
scratching wound ON the outside of the
body; SO long as it is done, the wound will
not heal. Let person, when tempted to
cough, draw a long breath and hold it uu
til it warns and sonthes every air-cell aud
some benefit will soon be received from the
process. The nitrogen which is thus re-

The En-iIage Que.,ion--.En.t stand West.


The following letter from Prof Sanborn
of the Missouri agricultural college to DR..
Hoskins of the Waterman touches upon two
subjects on which the opinion of the pro-
fessor is worth noting
Dear Dr.. HoSknS Your editorial shows
that we do not stand far apart on the en-
sage question. When it is admitted that
ensllage is "A choice of methods with prac-
tically the same outcome with a given
amount of food, or even slight gain, then
l have no more to say. When a man builds
with belief not far removed from YOUR
position, l offer no suggestion but you
know that four fifths of the sios have gone
in with exaggerated views of their value,
and many of them would never have been
constructed if the builders had had Just
idea of their value. Now, so far as my po-
sition is concerned, it was based upon the
view that a deep fallacy was being taught,
which would lead enterprising men into
costly investments who are in a financial
condition that would deter them from the
venture if truly informed Some one had
to stand against the tide in their interest,
and receive the jeers of those who affect
to despse so-caled scientific men, although
please to note that those same self styled
'practical' men offered more fancy specu
lations in two or three years on the action
of a slo than science would want to be re
sponsible for, or is responsible for,
Your picture drawn of the dark side of
farming is more deeply true of the mass of
farmers than the friends of agriculture
care to admit or dare to own even to them
selves The fact cannot be disguised that
farm capital and labor are receiving less
than any other form of capital and labor,
equally faithfully applied. | see no good to
come from Disgusting it, but harm. | can
not perceive that farm capital is being much
better paid in the West than in the East
Living may come some easier here, but un-
less industry becomes very much more di-
versifed. the condition will not remain So
After original fertility is gone, which occu-
pies but a brief period, and land values
have ceased to rise (they are on the decline
now, the returns of routine farmer are
meagre, and give "a second generation of
farmers of perhaps not as successful and
broad a type as the first,
