Good Animals VIII De Hard to Get
n Few Years Hence.
The large majority of farmers who
own horses seem to be quite anxious to
get rid of them, even at low prices.
Where the farm is mortgaged, and the
horses can be spared better than my
thing-else on the farm, this Is all right,
as 1t is better to lose the horse than the
home; but where it is not, we regard it
as very unwise and foolish, says the
Kentucky Stock Farm. In country
like ours, where one extreme follows
another, it is not wise to float with the
current or follow the herd From 1890
to 1890 we bred entirely too many
horses of all classes, and as a natural
consequence we are now suffering a
period Of low prices. Our next predica-
ment, IL all signs do not fail, will be a
great scarcity Of horses. We base this
opinion upon the fact that everybody
is selling and that very few are breed
ing. We do not believe there are more
than ten per cent. of the horses being
bred in the United States to-day that
there were six years ago. This can
not possibly help but produce great
Shortage, and this shortage in supply
gan have but one effect namely, to in
crease the price. AS 1t takes five years
to produce four-year-old colt, and as
the time cannot be abridged by any
possible means, and as the breeding be-
gan to fall off quite materially in 1893,
four years ago, the shortage is bound
to begin to manifest itself inside of the
next two years. The produce of mares
bred this season will not be four years
old, or ready for market, before 1909,
and between this and that time
we predict that there will be much
greater shortage of horses Of all-ldnds
than has been seen in this country for
many years.

DAIRY SUGGESTIONS.

The travelling dairy schools OF Cam
ada have done splendid work in rails
ing the grade Of butter in that coun-
try.
Brine sailing Of butter is wnsteful
and inaccurate. The most satisfactory
way is TO salt on the butter worker,
Weighing both suit and butter.
The power to consume, digest and ns-
simulate nutritious food is what is de-
sired Of the COW at maturity; and to
receive this the calf must be welt fed.
An old lesson, not yet we'll learned,
Is to have good ventilation in the milk
room, clean floors and walls, and to
hArbor nothing which will produce bad
odors.
The best product from daIrying
comes from the manufacture OF gilt.

TIE alfalfa hay furnishes a good deal
Of protein, making the necessity for
bran not quite so great as IL no alfalfa
were fed; on the other hand, bran Is
cheAp at seven dollars rer ton. The
eastern farmer would consider II al
most gift at such figures, and when
corn is 10 cents or less per bushel, or
less than five dollars per ton, nll COM

cows oil they will ent of the roughnge

PORTABLE PIG sTY.

John M. Jamison, I noticed several
portable pig houses which he loaded on
sleds and movehwhere he run his swine.
/ stole his idea, and l think improved
on 1t by erecting the sty on sled rum
ners, ready to hitch team to and haul
about,
The illustration shows the idea, which
Is simple. The runners are two by eight
inches, and eight feet long. The root
is made from 12-foot boards cut in
half. The width is six feet from out to
out, There are two cross ties, one at
each end of sled, with two uprights for
door, two by four inches; all parts well
nailed together. One of these houses is
an excellent shelter for brood sows, as
they seldom lie on their young. owing
to the ridged roof.
They afford excellent shelter, are
warm, dry, and will hold half dozen
2OO-pound pigs. When they get foul a
team will move 1t in few minutes to
q clean spot, and the accumulations
underneath and around it's last loca-
ton can be hauled away.
BY all means the farmer should raise
enough pork to supply his own needs
In meat and lard and to consume waste
which other animals will not eat

AL AROUND THE EARM.


In sandy soil deep planting is best
for potatoes.
If the hay is dusty, dampen it for
feeding to horses.
Pull the collars away from the horses
shoulders while they are resting.
Ashes may be considered as a special
fertilizer for potatoes, improving the
yield and quality.
Generally with flower seed, large or
coarse seed should be planted much
deeper than fine seed.
The most successful work of the farm
is done according to the season, rather
than by any other set rule.
It will be an exceptional case when
some soiling crop cannot be used to a
good advantage during the summer.
When the cabbage, tomatoes or sweet
potato plants have grown long and
spindling set them deeper into the
soil; down to the first leaf is usually
good plan.
II the full number of stock is kept
that the pastures will carry during the
best part of the growing season, some
soiling crop must be grown to help
out when the pastures fail.
One advantage with all farm prod
ucts and stocks is that If prices fall it
is certain that the lower quality drops
first and most, and usually is most DIFF
fcult to sell. There is always a sale
for the products of better quality
