Horses Want Regular Work.

There are few horses that are not quiet
with regular work; there are very few
horses that are really quiet without it.
The strong impulse to take exercise which
nature has implanted in all young healthy
horses, almost compels them to play, and
horse play is generally dangerous, and
often leads to the horse learning some,
thing, or getting into some mess that
makes him dangerous ever afterward
Thousands of timid persons who would be
immensely benefited by riding on horse
back or driving themselves about, are pre-
vented from doing so because they are
frightened with horses too fresh and too
playful to be safe. We have known such
persons afraid to ride or drive their own
good tempered buG playful horses to go to
a livery stable and hire horses that have
been sold cheap to the stable keeper for
real vice, but which were kept safe and
sober by the excessively hard work of their
wretched lives. No cruel overwork is
necessary with the good tempered. we'll
broken horse, bat long rests should be
strictly forbidden, as alike destructive to
efficiency, safety or pleasure.

A Happy Man Was Adam.
Wocbiprton POST

When you come to think of it coolly and
calmly after the lapse of all these years,
Adam and Eve were pretty fortunate
people, Adam never had to run dead
heats with the house dogs. He didn'
even have to sit in the parlor and talk
politics with Ewes father When they
quarreled and Eve climbed tree Adam
didn t have to write long letters and spend
hours of anxiety and postage stamps to
make it up. All he had to do was to sit
down under the tree and wait till Ewes
temper recovered its normal sweetness.
He never patronized confectionery stores;
he merely went to the nearest fruit tree,
plucked a nice ripe pineapple. and pre-
sented it with his compliments. Theirs
was a beautiful dream of welded life.
When Eve wanted a new dress, Adam
went to the nearest fig tree and got it.
And Eve never felt called upon to mend a
bursted button-hole or hel p Adam hunt
his collar button, or take all the blame be-
cause he stumbled over the rocking-chair.
1t was a monopoly on unauthorized COM
fort, and if Eve had only had enough fem
mime sagacity to lift up her skirts and
scream and run when she saw the snake
we wouldn' t be having all this trouble now.

penses that the large feeder pays out. 1t
is part of the farmers profits. What
comes from cattle feeding and how to get
it is part of his education. The younger
the steer, the greater the gain, consequent
ly early maturity is prime factor In feed
ing
The native cattle do not mature early.
Their ancestry was required to endure
rather than mature. They are losing
money Just now to all who touch them
We advise the farmers who need all that
can be made from their business to finish
their own cattle by all means. 1t is de-
partment of the farm that has been entire
" neglected by too many. Cattle feeding
as it has been managed in large yards is
not the most economical way. The average
gain is less than in small punches. The
hogs that follow will get disease more
rapidly. Winter work ON the farm should
require the summer help more nearly thar
it does at present. We have the finest
corn growing country ON earth, and sur
plus corn will always require consumers
on the farm. Behind the steer is, of
course, sire and dam, and the uses of the
dairy cow the necessity of the proper size,
that requires attendance by itself.
Cattle feeding belongs to the cattle breed
er. 1t has proht peculiar to Itself tha>
the average farmer can not afford to ovel
look. 1t teaches the value of improved
cattle as nothing else does. 1t is one of
the great forces that keeps up farm fertil-
ity. We have been doing it by proxy.
Feeders at home gathered cattle by hun
dreds, and bought corn by the thousands
of bushels and whether they made a profit
or not the farmers who sold to them either
corn or cattle lost certainly the amount
they sold of the farm, COW, Or young steers.
Feeders In states east of us have bought
our corn and steers and put them together.
Feeders in Germany do not want our thin
steers to finish. Feeders in Britain have
always fed our oil meals. All this indicat-
es want of knowledge on western farms
and want of enterprise. The dairy enter
prise of the state has not helped the feed
ing department of itself. When butter
becomes cheaper and other profits are
necessary, feeding will be suggested to the
minds of dairymen. We insist dairymen
feed their cattle more. Dairy papers gen.
orally overlook this feature of the farm,
this auxiliary to the dairy. When the
west doubles its cows for dairy uses, this
department of the farm will become i'm
perative.
