A horse that never gained his lib
erty by breaking his halter never be-
came halter puller, says a practical
writer. Poor halters or brides have
always been the cause of horses ac-
curing the habit of breaking loose.
1t is, therefore, of the utmost impor-
lance that whatever a colt is tied with
1t be beyond his power to break. If
the first few attempts to free itself are
in vain there is very little danger of
the colt trying the experiment soon
again. When horses have once be-
come accustomed to breaking loose
the best way to break them is to fasten
them securely with strong straps or
ropes and then give them an oppor-
tunity to pull away until they get tired
of the sport. A few lessons of this
kind will sometimes break them of the
habit. As the habit is one of the worst
that horse can contract every pre-
caution should be taken to prevent it,
or when once contracted it should be
broken up as speedily as possible. =

A WRONG IDEA.

A number of farmers are of the
opinion that keeping poultry is only
a matter of habit and convenience to
them. From force of habit in their
surroundings they feel obliged to
keep few hens, and never give a
thought to them otherwise than con
vsnience ON the farm. A great mis-
take is made by tnes3 conclusions,
and if they would stop and think of
what has been and is being done with
the business hen, L am confident they
would not have this wrong idea of the
poultry business. Many farmers are
realizing dollars today through their
attention to the poultry business.
When we know that each hen should
give net profit of at least 81 year,
and then multiply this by the num-
Der of hens that could bs kept, it
does take long to form a conclusion.
Add to your income the amount that
you could realize by attention to your
fowls, and you will be surprised at the
result. A careful thought on this sub
iect will be to your advantage. Amer

be marketed better. The more concen.
trated and the less bulky the products
when they are sent to market the less
the cost Of getting them there.
One advantage in keeping variety
Of stock, and especially where d vari-
ETY. of crops IRE grown, isthat better
opportunity is afforded Of using all of
che products of the farm in feeding
them, and by having q good vyriety of
products the stock can be fed to a
better advantage. Where the most is
to be made out of the products, and
at the same time the fertility of the
soil be maintained, it is not so prch
question of whether or not stock u,
to be kept, but rather to detesaline
what kinds should be kept. This is a
question that must very largely be de-
termined by tho farmer himself; his
taste, the character of his soil and his
location as to market being taken into
consideration.
One point, however, should be re-
membered and that is il is not SO
much overproduction that makes low
prices as it is the low grade of the
larger per cent. that is placed on mar
ket; this at least implies the keeping
of good stock.
With good arrangements the manu-
rial product that can be secured by
the feeding out of the various farm
products to stock will pay all the cost
of feeding and caring for them. OF
course in this all reasonable care must
be taken to save and apply to the best
advantage.
The real cost of the stock should be
the value of the feed and the value of
the stock when feeding is commenced.

FOR Farm AND GARDEN.


Every farmer ought to have a pair
of farm scales. not to supersede his
own judgment as to the weight OF
stock, but to test it. If he does not
have the scales the farmer is always
at a disadvantage. The butcher and
speculative buyer are constantly exer-
cising their judgment in guessing at
live weights. 1t is one of the ways
in which this ability to Judge cor
rectly is increased. The farmer who
weighs his stock frequently can always
tell nearly what it is worth to market
if he is fattening it. He can also
know better which kinds of feed bring
the best results. Home and Farm.
