When horses are we'll fed they are

can rival. Solid food has, perhaps, q
good deal to do in the production Of

more. Without work no kind or GUAM

corn, but q great number of horses kept
in town receive nothing but oats and
hay all the year round.
For those that do only moderate
work these two articles. with a weekly

FARMER ANDPLANTER.,
BARNARD MANURE.


Oa Its Proper Management Much of Its
Value Depends.
The scientific basis upon which the
best aud most economical methods of
managing barnyard manure rest has
claimed much attention recently from
n number of the most prominent scien-
tific men of the old world. Recent eff
fort has besn-very largely directed to
the practical end of simplifying meth
DDS of management, and preservation,
for it is clearly understood that only
the fertilizing matter of barnyard ma
nure il In SO dilute and bulky form
that only the simplest methods of ma
nipulation can be profitably applied
to it. -
The object sought II a very simple
and definite one, but the means by
which it is to be attained must be de-
veloped by scientific investigation of
the most complex and comprehensive
kind. The changes which manure nm
dergoeA which It induces in the soil,
and which determine to large extent
its fertilizing value. are mainly the
work of micro-organisms A study of
these changes therefore requires not
Only most careful work on the part of
the chemist, but also painstaking
study of the bacteriologist; and since
the conclusions reached by these ex-
perts must be con firmed by actual tests
in the field, the investigation of this
subject furnishes an opportunity for
profitable cooperative work by at least
three departments of an experiment
station. tssS ll
Since the direct fertilizing value of
manure depends 30 largely on the nj
trcgen which it contains, it will be
found that the Investigators above re-
ferred to have given their attention
mainly to study of the availability.
changes and causes and prevention of
loss Of this element in manure. Z.
Probably the most interesting fact
brought ont is that coarse manure and
litter. especially wheat straw, contain
AN active Identifying organism. 1t

material il literally applied to
the soil, the available nitrates
present are; conyertsd into &un-

noted unless manure u applied in un-

subject Of great scienti6c Importance.
and demands that in the study of
methods of management Of manure the
effort should be made to develop sys-
TENS of preservation which will not
only prevent harmful changes in the
nitrogen, but also reduce to a mini
mum the activity Of the identifying
organisms, which may prove SO inju-
rious to the soil. Cultivator.

Breathing Up the setter.

There are many ways TO ''break up
. hen that is setting. the majority of
which methods, however, being cruel
and unnecessary. The best mode is to
have coop two, feet square and IS
inches high; with openings on top,
bottom and sides; that il the top bot
tom and sides, should be of Stats. 20 that
should the hen sit:on the floor Of the
coop it will be cool under her, the
open sides preventing seclusion. The
hen should be fed but once q day, on
lean meat and should have all the wa
ter.desired. Should storms appear the
coop should be under shelter, but 9TH
erwise it should be placed in the most
frequented place on the farm. Such
an arrangement is not cruel, as 10 the
case when ducking, ETC., is resorted to,
and the hen will cease to set in two or
three days. Better than this is to al
low the hen to set and hatch brood.
1t is her natural method of resting
from laying. and she will lay more
eggs in q year IL allowed to set, as ex-
Ferinents show that il hen is broody
and is broken up she will lay but
few eggs before she will become broody
again. hence it is q saving of time to
allow her to hatch and raise brood,
as the chicks will also be q source Of
profit. Mirror and Farmer.
A better way, and more convenient Is
simply to turn the hen out of the yard
for about three days. In some cases
four days are required. and

Now the size of the farm must depend
upon the man. Some men have better
management than others and have the
ability to oversee large forces Of men
and do business ON large scale. Such
men can successfully manage Q large
farm. A man who likes to putter
around by himself, and who has but
little executive ability, might do we'll

iorty-two cents and making an ad-
diiional loss Of forty-eight cents, or an
aggregate Of $l.27 per bale. While
the Southern farmers are willing to
lose $l bale by using the cotton
bagging to break up the bagging trust,
thry would hardly be: willing to con-
tribute 81 per bale to build up the
American Cotton Trust The loss of
Si.2i per bale on crop Of 8. 600, 900
would be an absolute loss of $ll ,43O 900
every year to the South farmers.
The round bales would be of immense
advantage to- the insurance and rail
road companies. but terrible blow to
the producer. While there is no aues-
lion That the round bale is better pro-
tectcd and more easily handled than
the square, 1t presents several serious
disadvantages to manufacturers who
use uncompressed cotton. In order to
work cotton to the best advantage it is
absolutely necessary to expose it to
Inc air before putting 1t in the machi-
merry, which is done in the Opening-
room Now, anyone who ever tried to
Tear up Il picker-lap will testify TO the ,
dlhlculty. a round bale Is at least six
times the density of the picker-lap.
An opening gang will. tear up, and
spread about two laps In the 'samd time
they can one square bale. You can
sec, therefore, at q glance how much
more time, trouble and EXPENSE the
round bale would require to open up
than the square.
The terrific PRESSURE to which the
round bale is subjected, instead of
being an advantage, as claimed,tia a
disadvantage, for It. Is applied to a
very thin layer of cotton instead of the
whole bale, as in the compress. and
the result is that the fibre, which
10 hollow is mashed fiat and thereby
| irreparably injured. - Il ':i:<
The. object in manufacturing cotton
Is to lay the fibre smooth and even.
