NOTES ABOUT HORSES.

The horse has been known TO exhibit
hatred to particular men, and home
sickness.
A fence is not good protection from
cold and storm, or a straw stack very
succulent food.
Too much feed is as bad IL not worse
than too little, especially when the
horses have but little 10 do.
The colt should be well cared for and
well fed from the day of his birth until
he is a mature horse ready for market.
First impressions are most lasting in
man or beast. Animals can never be
made TO unlcarn habits which are once
acquired.
A few feeds Of bran mash, carrots or
other roots, given to a horse of his
feed OF slightly ailing. will generally
bring him around all right.
IL we would fattcn the work horse
for market. we take him off his oats
and bran and put him upon corn and
oil meal. just SO are we learning much
about feeding cows for beef or milk.
Good mixers are invariably thin, while
others with the same food get fat and
produce less milk.-Southern Cultivs

of the Rhodes and the Riddle mills was
followed Monday by the resumption OF

SUGAR BEET CULTURE.
Nebraska Farmers Are Making the Crop
Pay Fairly Well.

Nebraska Farmers Are Making the Crop
Pay Fairly Wen.
The live question among farmers now
is what can be done to make farming
pay? II sugar beet growing pays in
Nebraska may IL not be made profitable
in other grain-growing states? Ii is
an interesting question. What, then,
arc they doing in that state that is
taking the lead In this industry? The
season is so far advanced that pretty
close estimate of the beet-sugar prod
uct may be made, and the output of
the great Oxnard factories is expect
ed TO reach n total of 100000 pounds
from $4,000 tons of bcets. This is about
twice as large n field as that OF 1895,
ard nearly three times as great as that
of 1894. At the same time the number
of farmers who have cultivated beets
has increased with like rapidity. In
1894 only about 500, and in 1895, 1900
engaged I'm the business, but the pres
ent year the number reached about
2,oC0. The average yield has been about
ii tons OF beets to the acre, and the
price per ton has ranged from four to
seven UOildfs. nc lulitT AiEhIt WAS
paid for beets that contained the re-
markaLly high per cent. of 20; the lower
price was given for those that graded
only 10 per cent. OF sugar. The amounts
received by the growers ranged from
$44 TO SIT per acre. The average amount
OF beets grown by each farmer was
only about 81 tons, showing that less
than four acres were planted, on the
average But the profit from this small
area wa from $3.50 to $o0o-more, prob
ably. than that derived from all the re-
maindcr Of the farm.
1t is an interesting fact that in all
the foreign sugar-beet growing coun-
tries. including France, Germany and
Russia. this industry is steadily increas-
ing. IN the lnst-namcd country the in
crease last year was nearly 20 per cent.
over the amount grown In prev GUS
years. The subject Is certainly we'll
worthy of consideration by our farm

RACK FOR CORN FODDER.

being careful to keep the center full
and well tramped so IL will turn wa
ter perfectly. A rack lGx32 feet should
hold good-day's threshing, or about ~
acres of ordinary fodder, without maxi
ing the rack very high. Racks are made
by setting posts in the ground and
mailing on fencing, beginning four or
FIVE feet from the ground and running
them as high as necessary. To keep
the thing from spreading. the wires are
tied together by putting wires across
and twisting them together with a
stick TO tighten them. Around the rack
. manger is constructed with fencing
boards and posts for the cattle to eat
out Of
The sketch herewith will serve TO
show the principle of constructing; IL
shows n small rack which is very con-
venient for feeding straw or hay in the
yard, rs well as for fodder, when II il
made on IA larger scale. Tho lower part of
the manger, being the opening for
heads of cattle TO pass through, should
he boarded up tight for feeding fodder
The railing about the opening should
be strong pole or a hardwood 2x4.--

A Kansas city Bank suspends.

Kansas City, Mo-, Dec. 1.-The Mis-
souri, national bank closed its doors
Monday morning. IL was classed as
one OF the strongest institutions in the
southwest. The immediate cause was
the withdrawal OF $4,000 In one lump
10y Helm, the wealthy local brewer,
whose action was quickly followed by
others. The last statement issued by
the bank showed deposits OF 81 .56l 900,
and cash and exchanges amounting TO
$4,000. Two causes are assigned for
the suspension. One is slow collections.
The other and the prime reason is that
taere have been discussions among the
directors. These were of such a char
acter that they finally led TO n clashing
with the government, and il was
thought best TO close the doors OF the
bank and have things Strengthened out.
The bank had between 2,2O0 and $500
depositors, most of them for small
amounts. and there are probably 100
stockholders OF the concern.

Some Valuable Hints About shreddinE.
Storing and Feeding.

Combined corn huskers and fodder
cutters or shredders were used TO linn
tied extent in this section OF country
some years since. hut think none are
used now. Imperfections in material,
workmanship. and in principle of con-
struction. as then made, and the ex-
pense of operating, will account for
their failure TO obtain a foothold
among the labor-saving~ machines OF
oni country. All except the last of
these objections have been overcome In
the latter machines, which are now be-
fore the public.
For several years past all the shred
ding that has been done in this section
has been with the common snall-grain
hresher-mostly with old machines.
While they do not do the work quite as
well as the special corn machinery
now in use. the expense of purchasing
the latter is avoided by the use of the
tLresher.

all the trees the same distance apart,
the fence, with the two by four-inch
posts, can be removed by taking out
the keys that hold them on, to any por-

This makes n very substantial and
