Compressed Fodder.

strengthening begins this week all
over Montana, and taking the clip from
five million sheep will occupy the
greater part of next month, when the
bands will be taken to summer ranges.
Machines are used by the large COM
panies the shearers being paid cents
per head. and charged n cent for ty-
ing. If boarded they are charged 81
day. Shearers average 100 sheep a
day, and by working from south to
north, obtain several months steady
work.
The Dallas News says that breeding
stock in western Texas is being greatly
reduced by the spaying of heifers, the
Spur Company in Dickens county
alone. thus converting $500 into beef
cattle. The steady curtailment Of the
range area, and general desire to en-
gage in steer ranching are the reasons
given.
over four years ago a bale of shred
ded corn fodder was sent to the Wis
consin station. Last July 1t was open
ed and fed to COWS, who ate it readily,
the leaves being green and sweet. The
bale weighed about 230 pounds, was 81
inches high and IS inches in diameter
and appears to be a desirable way to
keep corn fodder.

Thru all the smoke and fire of
somewhat acrimonious controversy be-
tween factions one fact stands forth
most prominently Not word has ever
been said. even in the iiercest moments,
against the official acts Of Mr. Cummins
as governor of Iowa. He had won his
office thru a factionel contest that
hurled republicans at the political
throats of republicans and the old
struggle still goes on, altho with much
less ill-nature, but denomination
comes to Cummins unanimously and
without a criticism from men who
might reasonably be presumed TO
quickly see an error had one been made.
ONLY a week ago the opposition party
held its convention to condemn every
thing republican, yet no specific bills
of complaint did they present against
the republican governor of Iowa. To
perform two years of official duty be-
fore the watchful gaze Of such eager
critics and come thru with not CEN
sure of any kind to be met ought to
convince even the governor himself
that his administration has not steered
far from the right course.

Milk Products.

Machinery is being installed in the
Rosemary Creamery at Cooperstown.
n. Y, for the manufacture of two new
by products of milk-lacto and powder
ed milk. Lacto is substitute for the
albumen of eggs. and is much used by
bakers and confectioners, and in places
where fresh eggs are scarce. 1t is a
product of skim milk. and is made by
a patent process. Powdered milk is
made in two brands-milk flakes and
cream flakes. Milk flakes are made
from skim milk, and cream fakes from
Whole milk. These brands of powdered
milk are said to be superior to the or
binary condensed milk, in that they will
keep for any length of time in any
climate. 1t requires but the addition of

Demand for Brood Mares.

There seems to be scarcity all
over the country, says the Chicago
Drovers' Journal. of first class brood
mares that are trotting bred, and when
obtainable they command almost ex-
travagant figures. And while the best
are scarce, there is no over-supply of
the medium ones. either and they are.
for the most part, now in the hands of
breeders who know their worth. and
appreciate it, and will not dispose of
them even at higher figure than their
real value. While it is true that there
are many offered at the larger public
sales, as a rule the majority are not
what may be denominated as guilt-edg-
ed, but when they are fashionably bred,

The Strawpile
Curing a eaIky Colt.

l think the following method may
prove of some use to your correspon-
dent with the colt that inclines to balk,
If it is the collar ne is afraid of. If,
as possible, it is the bit, proper biting
as you suggest is what is needed. The
plan that / suggest does much the
same for horses shoulder as biting
does for his mouth. 1t accustoms the
shoulders to pressure, and that in such
a gradual way that the colt trains him
self and stands properly to his collar
from the beginning of his lessons in
harness. This method l find especially
useful for the overwilling, high strung
horse, not bred for draft. Fix a pulley
behind the horses stall or in some
other convenient place about as high as
the horses stiles, then run a rope up
over another pully and attach a light
weight TO 1T sufficient to keep the rope
fully taut. When fastened to the horses
singletree. which is attached to the tugs
in the ordinary way. tie the horse as
long as you can safely and securely.
The weight must be off the ground all
the time. The horse may come back
TO the end of his halter for a time
but he will gradually brace himself to
hold up light weight, it is more COM
Portable for him. This may be put on
the horse at feeding time, if nervous
horse, and taken off the first few times
before he has done eating. After
while increase the weight, but the more
nervous he is the more gradual this
should be done. When you are passing
by give the rope a pull, and put some
of your weight on it. He will soon brace
against it and mind that he does not
catch your fingers in the pulley.
II the horse has been badly baked
previously and his shoulders have been
hurt he should have set Of springs
on his tugs when first hooked, to keep
him from jerking his shoulders. If you
have not these take him out in the
yard with a rope on his singletree, and
pull him back on this as much or as
little as seems necessary. Then hook
him and back him up a few times.
Study his actions and do not start him
up until the right moment. The
chances are. however that he will have
become so Indifferent to the collar and
so habituated to standing up to it that
he will move quietly off.

Moss in Tanks.

An Illinois farmer says there are
three ways to prevent moss from gath
ering in water tanks. A sure way is
to clean them often. another is to keep
them covered, but the best is to occas-
ionally put lime into the tank. He had
been troubled with moss collecting in
his watering tank; he tried putting in
lime and he found that it cleared the
moss away, and now whenever that
greenish substance collect on the walls
of his tank, he uses lime to get rid of
it, There is little expense connected
with trial OF the lime method, which
is in it's favor.
