Horse Talk.

BY Tim in the Farm Journal.
Did you ever notice the perpetual youth
that seems to invest real horse lover.
Young-old men, almost inevitably.
Contrast them with the old-young men
that ride wheels.
Give the growing children, boys and girls,
the vtalizing influence of a pony and
broaden their minds by teaching them to
love and care for it.
Now is good time to train the colts.
Do not train them in weak condition.
Let the training and feeding go together.
Bran and oats are the best feed for grow
ing colts.
If colt is particularly excitable and
nervous. substitute barley for oats.
Corn is too heating for a colt. 1t will do
very well for slow, hard work work done
at a walking gait.
horse must always be cool when fed
corn, as there is danger of founder.
A horse used to eating oats can be fed
when somewhat warm, but it is always
best to give rest before the grain is fed
pot-bellied animal is a poor recon-
mendaton for feeder. 1t shows no judg-
ment and no sense.
colt learns one thing at time and
should be under perfect control before it
is h1tched to a sleigh or wagon, and there
will be less danger of it's becoming fright
ened by smells
The colt will become heated easily and
there is danger of taking cold if allowed

When rubbing down the horses do it
Systematically so every hair will be stirred

When you have brushed the fetlock and

FARM NOTES.
From the Farmers Tribune)


The question of profit and loss assumes
greater prominence than ever. 1t is a
waste of time and money to keep animals
that do not pay profit over and above
the cost of food and care. Place a value
on the food they eat and the attention
they receive, including housing. and give
them full credit for what they yield, not
forgetting the value of the manure they
make, and strike balance. Few farmers
can afford, in these days. to keep live
stock of any kind for the fun of the thing.
If the accounting does not show reason
able margin of profit, therefore, get rid
of the Improbable animals.
Demagogues who are trying to array the
South and West against the North and
East upon sectional issues had better first
direct their efforts towards suppressing
the oranges; because the farmers in all
parts of the country through this organ
ization are learning that their interests
are not antagonistic one to the other but
that they have interests in common and
that these interests best be subserved
by, intelligent action. The country has
no use for these dema gogues and the
farming population everywhere should use
their efforts to drive this clap trap ele-
ment beyond borders.
The real value of a garden cannot be
known. adequately by those who are not
compelled to buy all garden products which
they use. We sometimes think lightly of
our privileges. 1t is very different, indeed,
to go out into the garden and pull up a
dozen or two radishes for table use from
having to go to the market and pay a high
price for the same; and SO it is with let
tuce carrots, green peas. and. in fact,
every product that the garden will produce.
Good roads would make dairy farming
more profitable and more delightful occu-
patton than now. The dairyman has to
travel good deal on the highway. and
the faster and easier he can get over the
ground the better. Rocks and mud are a
constant damage. Good, smooth roads.

What Is Needed.

men who can look beyond their own mar
row environment or outside of strictly party
lines and be able to estimate men and con-
ditions as they really are. No class of peo-
pie need this outlook and broadening more
than farmers, because the farmers as rule
confine themselves to their farms, their
church, and their party. Why not join the
grange and get off the farm for a few
hours once in two weeks? Leave the church
and party behind and come into the grange
meeting upon the broad platform of an
American citizen and learn that there are
good men who do not belong to your party
or do not attend your church and that
there are good farmers whose environment
is different from yours.

FEEDING Horses.

Hard working horses that are allowed only
a short rest in the middle of the day need
ground feed and not whole grains. They
are in tired condition then, and the stom-
ach is often unable to handle properly the
food put into it. Frequently the animals
are worked again before the stomach could
possibly digest half the whole grains swal-
lowed. By grinding the grains and mixing
little water with them, the horses can
very easily digest the feed, and they will
get direct benefits from the food within a
very short time Horses fed in the middle
of the day with crushed and moistened
grains will be in finer condition at night
than those fed whole grains. 1t is not a
difficult matter to grind feed in these days
Small hand machines come for the purpose
and also those that turn by horse power.
The latter are only needed on very large
stock farms, where a number of farm
ers cooperate to get their feed ground. The
amount saved will more than pay for the
extra labor and the cost of the machine
The other extreme of feeding animals finely
ground food at all times should not be
adopted, for that is weakening to the stom-
achs of the animals. Fine feed enters the
stomach in a mass, and forms a dough that
the juices cannot penetrate. By feeding a
little coarse food with all the fine feed the
two are equalized so that the stomach can
dispose of both at the minimum cost of
labor.-Farmers' Home.
