Ya1ne az Enrare crnns-

Dry pastures and hot weather bring
little terror to the farmer who has
planted literally of such crops as will
give forage in midsummer. The early
sweet corn is in condition o feed and
the sorghum is coming into lead With
these crops to supplement the pastures,
the live stock will receive little check
in the production of meat and milk
from lack of food during the hot wealth
er. If stock is compelled to hunt for
living all day in weed fields with little
grass, loss may be expected, one that
viii be difficult and expensive to make
good later on. The hogs and sheep, as
well as the cows, will appreciate an ex-
ira ration during the warm days. While
the stock is running ON pasture, If
shade, food and water are together,
noon is an excellent time to do this spe-
cial feeding. At this time of day the
animals will be in the shade near their
watering place, and extra feed may
then be given without disturbing them
in the cool morning and evening when
they enjoy feeding on the grass. A
check in growth, whether in summer or
winter, is always an actual loss to the
owner.-EXchange

if given daily in addition to other prop
er food, and as they grow older this
amount may be increased, with nearly
a corresponding increase in weight
gained. To exchange a pound of grain,
costing about one cent, for a pound of
lamb worth fifteen cents seems to be
trade that almost any farmer would
be willing to make, but we have seen
those who boosted that they never
bought any grain. They did not raise
lambs or chickens, sold but little and
bought less, and saved money, but we
would not have accepted their farms
and the money they had accumulated
and agreed to make the farm as good
as it was when they received it, Such
farmers are usually robbers, robbing
the land of its fertility, robDing their
families of the comforts of life, and
their children of the pleasures of youth
and nearly all that is desirable in life,
unless the children forsake the farm
and establish home where they may
earn more. expend more and enjoy
more of life.-New England Home

The Hanpr Truck Farmer.

Truck farming differs from the grow
ing of ordinary field crops in that not
so much land is needed for this work;
hence the location of the home can be
found in the suburbs of towns and
cities, where both the advantages of
city and rural life can be enjoyed. This
is my ideal home. A man upon such a
truck farm is king, surrounded by the
best influences of earth, away from the
temptations and excitement of the city
and close enough to take advantage OF
its schools, churches, water. lights, etc
He is in touch with the great pulsating
heart of nature, her invigorating at
mosphere, her balmy sunshine, pure
water, the song of the birds, the hum
of the bees and the aroma of the flow
ers What more enticing surroundings
could man need to lead a pure and
happy life, which is the ultimate OBJ
ject and aim of human ambition when
simmered down to its elements Farm

Poor Work IN Shedding.

Considerable complaint has been
made against the corn shredder because
the shredded material especially the
coarser parts of the corn stalk were not
properly cut to pieces. Pieces of stalk
from six to ten inches long formed the
greater part Of the waste that accumu-
lated in the hangers. Much of this ma
terial, if reduced to fneness. would be
eaten by stock, and a great deal of
actual feed could be saved. However,
1t is true that portion of the stalk can
hardly be reduced by the shredder and
cutter head sufficiently to be eaten by
animals. q grinding process that
brushes as well as cuts is necessary to
do this. But the common shredder may
be made to do much better work than ii
has done the past season.
Where the shredder has started fresh
with sharp, keen knives, firmly set, the
thrashed material was made a great
deal finer than after the machine has
been used for a considerable length of
time without the knives being sharp
eped. Shredder owners are doing great
injury by allowing such careless work.
Instances are known where the knives
of the shredder have not been looked
after during the entire seasons work.
Such poorly cut up fodder brings the
shredder init, disrepute; and the dis
tricts that have been imposed upon will
likely have very little fodder shredded
the coming season because the machine
did not increase the value of the fod-
der. -Indianapolis News.

Porto Ricans Up to Date.

Every well-read American knows, of
course, that the real business of post
master is not to collect, ship, receive
and deliver mail, but to run caucuses
and conventions. Have not the news
papers from Wayback told us so? Is
not the system a subject for discussion
at every mugwump convention? Well,
the Porto Ricans are not slow learners
of the real facts that lie underneath the
surface of things postal. Several of
the postmasters in their villages have
been visited by representatives of the
local party committees and warned in
the most idiomatic provincial Spanish
that if they do not "get out and hustle
for the organization" they will lose
their jobs. Washington Post.
