FARM AND GARDEN.
Three Elements which Are Abso-
lutciy Essential To Success

Three Elements which Are Abso-
lutciy Essential To Success.
In these days of specialties farm
ing is much more divided than former
ly; we have fruit farming, dairy farm
ing, duck farming and egg farming.
OF those who have attempted the pro-
duction of eggs on large scale few
have succeeded. The chief cause OF
failure with those who have not been
successful has been that they seem
ingly undertook IL with the idea that
all they had TO do was TO multiply the
small flock with which they did well
by 100 or 1000 TO get 100 or 1000 times
as much profit. Multiplying the num-
Der OF hens Is the very smallest factor
of success in egg farming.
The first element in successful egg
farming is small 1ocks; the second is
economical housing; the third. facili-
ties for handling and cheapiy caring
for the floclxs. The hocks being small,
each one can be cared for and treated
as though IL was the only one on the
place. The houses should be warm
and convenient for the birds and the
attendant. II will be much cheaper 10
limit the range OF the hoclxs by their
own free will instead of by fences or
runs. To do this, place the houses at
short intervals apart-ten or twelve
rods-and have them of different col
ors and with different surroundings. so
each may be readily distinguished by
It's occupants when they wish TO seek
quarters" at night or for laying.
One of the most successful egg farm
ers in this country arranRes the houses
of his hens along streets. ten rods apart,
through his farm. Half OF the 120-acre
farm Is used as hen yard one year and
the other half cultivated. The next
year the houses are moved over 10 the
cultivated half and the hen yard used
for cropping purposes. The houses are
built on stills which form runners, and
good team is used for moving them
IN the spring. During the summer they
are moved their length every week; in
this way the houses are kept sweet, as
the soil where they are TO stand Is
plowed before the houses are moved.
The object of this Is to keep the houses
healthy with fresh soil as an absorbent
of the droppings, which renders the air
pure without the labor and expense OF
daily cleaning, and also fixes" the
fertilizing elements in the droppings
and enriches the soil for next years

HORSES DECREASING.
Good Animals VIII Re Hard 40 Get
a Few Ncnra 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 mortgnged, and the
horses can be spared better than any
thing else on the farm. this is all right,
rs IL is better 10 lose the horse than the
home; but where II is not, we regard it
as very unwise and foolish, says the
kentucky Stock Farm. In country
like ours, where one extreme follows
another, il is not wise TO float with the
current or follow the herd. From 1880
TO 1890 we bred entirely too many
horses OF all classes, and as a natural
consequence we are now suffering q
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 cam
not possibly help but produce great
shortage, and this shortage in supply
can have but one eifect--namely, 10 in
crease the price. As il takes five years
10 produce a 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
10 begin 20 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 1902,
and between this and that time
we predict that there will be mufh
greater shortage of horses of all kinds
than has been seen in this country for
many years.

NOTES FOR SHEPHERDS.

Use large, well-built rams.
When sheep are feeding on rape they
need salt.
When sheep are exposed TO storms
they suffer loss.
Sheep husbandry is about the easiest
pursuit I'm agriculture.
Aim to produce uniformity in your
flock. Breed carefully.
Sheep industry i'm the Dal<otas Is all
the time growing in Importance.
improvements in the sheep breeding
business will help the northwest
greatly.
Bean straw is highly recommended
for sheep, and anybody can grow beans,
and grow plenty Of them.
IL Is recommended 10 sow rape seed
at the rate OF three pounds In the corn
field at the last cultivation. Rape is ex-
cellent for sheep.
We look for the time when sheep hus-
bundry will assume something like its
old-timc Importance and proftableness

John NJ. Jamison. noticed several
