DOES THAT COLT FOLLOW?
If So, Fix Up Stall Where It Cannot
Hurt Itself and Teach It to
Stay at Home.

If colt is left behind right in the
start there will be very little trouble
If on the contrary it has been follow
ing for time it will be likely to make
a vigorous effort the first few days to
continue the practice. hence the stall
should be in good shape. The mare
will soon become accustomed to the
practice, and you will be surprised to
find how much more satisfactory, as a
work animal, she is. You will not
have to be constantly on the watch
when the lines are laid down lest the
colt get tangled up the checks and
cause a runaway or other serious
catastrophe. You will be saved the an
noyance of having II get in front of
the tongue or of one of the horses,
causing it to swerve from its proper
course, and Of its getting on the wrong
side of the fence when you go through
a gate. The crops will also be saved
from the effect of its capers. The colt
is much better off in a cool, dark stall
away from the pestering flies than out
in the hot sun trailing back and forth
across the field or along the highway.
The colt Is safer from accidents in a
good roomy stall and IL the mare is
turned to grass at night 1t can get all
the exercise 1t needs. It will soon be-
gin to eat II there Is a little hay in
the manger while the mother is out.
1t will not only thrive much better
when cared for in this manner. but will
soon draw less heavily upon the mare
for support, allowing more OF her en-
ergy to go to the farm work.-Prairie
Farmer.

PRACTICAL FARM NOTES.

The economic value of all foods de-
pend upon their digestibility.
An animal must be kept in good flesh
and thriving to make it grow.
1t is very desirable to put the early
lambs to maturity as soon as possible.
One Of the first things to be done on
stock farm is to improve the pastures.
The rearing and feeding of live stock
is the salvation Of impoverished farms.
The greatest profit in agriculture lies
in keeping every acre actively produce
ing.
Young and growing animals require
a food which will make muscle rather
than fat
The farm teams accustomed to heavy
work should not be driven on the roads
rapidly.
Sheep need and must have plenty Of
grains and variety of fodder to fatten
rapidly.
1t is ever true that the good milk and
butter COW will turn her food into milk
and butter and not flesh
The highest welfare of all domestic ami
mails requires that their food be not only
wholesome, but nourishing. g.-Soldiers

Road Work for Convicts,

Il may never be governor again"
said David r. Francis, in an address
to the recent good roads convention in
st. Louis, "but If | were to be,
would surely put convicts on the
highways. 1t might cost the taxpay-
ers a little more to work the states
prisoners on the roads than it does
to keep them locked up, but the ulti-
mate results would probably be more
profitable to the state than would be
the results from any other use that
they could be put to. The outdoor
work would be good for the convicts'
health, and would, therefore, Accord
ing to the best authorities, exert 4
stronger influence upon them than in
door work does, and the products Of
their labor would not then come into
competition with the products of FREQ
labor. Kansas City Journal.

Good Feed for Dairy Cows

Sooner or later We are going to have
trouble In some of our western states
on account of fermented foods fed
dairy cows and the unsophisticated
state of some of the men engaged
in enforcing dairy inspection laws. Wo
heard recently of the attempt by an
assistant dairy and food commissioner
to stop the feeding Of waste from the
distilleries. Now, distillery waste.
brewers grains and silage are all
more or less fermented, when they
come to the cow, but they are good
feeds for all that. Sauerkraut is n
partly fermented food, but 1t is served
on all our tables, and no one finds
fault with it because of its partial fer
mentation Review.

Turkey Hen Is Peculiar.

The turkey dislikes to lay her eggs
where hen would select She loves to
steal on to thick brush, or a secluded
spot In a fence-corner. For this reason
q barrel containing some nice straw in
some secluded spot, or some straw
placed In fence-corner with q few
boards and some brush set over 1t as a
shelter, will tempt her to make her nest

Baxter 6 Co.'s Cotton Letter.

New York. January 16-In the Liver pool market today there was rise of about points. The reports from many districts indicate that mills are gradually conforming to the changed conditions by advancing the quotations for the goods. It Is no time now to interpose objection to the advance in cotton. Receipts are falling off every day It is quite cer- tain that we shall shortly run behind last years total and the expectation is that as the season progresses the deficit will be so low that those who calculated on crop like the last will appear in a ridiculous light and those who looked Tor much over ten million will be dis appointed. Opening prices were about to 10 points higher. Cables were good. The movement next week is expected to show falling off from last years fig ures of at least 55,000 and possibly 50O0 bales Expectation was that the port receipts today would be about 22 0O0. against 31,000 last year. The LiverpooI stock Is still behind last year. Interior receipts were considerably behind at most towns today. The market was cas- Ter after the opening sellers were very cautious especially as the war scare seemed to be passing away. And spots were grimly held.

THE CABLES COME HIGHER

New York, January 1s.-The cotton market opened firm at an advance oi to Il points, following higher cables than expected, and estimates for continued light receipts. On the advance. however long cotton was offered freely, and there appeared to be only limited demand so that the market ruled rather quiet, developing sagging tendency that soon carried prices back to within point or so of last nights finals. The declin- ing tendency was encouraged by. the ac- tions of the New Orleans market which also made disappointing response to the cables.
 Receipts at the ports today were 2o,- 7ss bales, against 31.472 last week, and S0STs last year. For the week 1bo,ooC bales, against 1s2.so1 last week, and 22 TIT last year. Today's receipts at New Orleans were s2s2 bales, against 77S7 last year. and at Houston s42l, against 57Si last year.
 New York, January 16.-Cotton steady; middling. IS soc; net receipts. 100; gross receipts, 6S61; stock, 71,1S6.
 Total today and consolidated: Net re- ceipts. 20,7s8; exports to Great Britain, 450o; exports to the continent 4s,6So; ex- ports to Mexico, 30; stock, S39S30.

By c. w. Lee & Co.
 New York, January 1e.-There is one thing about this market more prominent than any other, and that is the absence of confidence on the part of the average trader. This is something very new for the cotton market of 1903-04. There Is no short selling. The confidence shown by bears is lacking. They are whipped and have no courage. This partly accounts for the pe- cular market; but this Is not the lack of confidence we mean. It Is peculiar that everytime receipts are small and prices get up little, cotton Is Tor sale. Tha stronger the position the more cotton for sale. Heretofore the strongest position the greater the buying. This calls for com ment and there are several exceptions. One Is that news has been already dis counted. Another Is that the outside trade seems growing smaller. The big men don't care 10 load up on a narrow market It is often fatal. New Orleans appears to be selling. It may be that all this cotton will be taken and prices move on up. But as long as the situation is as it 1t, we can't advise buying. Cotton Is now in a very peculiar position, and mistakes will be fatal. This market is to be watched very carefully, and is not to be trusted until big buying takes place and prices begin to advance easily Receipts appear to cut no figure at the moment

 New York, January 1s.-The market has been extremely dull and professional all the morning surprisingly so in the face of the activity in the Chicago mar ket which would seem to give color to war talk. We believe that the buying of steel stocks Is for very strong interest with view to advancing these considerably. The short interest in the market is fairly large and if there is any definite change we rather expect 1t to be in the nature of an improvement

 Chicago. January 16.-Chicago markets have been active with the exception of provisions. Wheat sold at the highest price on this movement. Not so much on war news as on the strength of the cash situation, No. red wheat bringing a good premium over the May option at Chicago. There is not much export bus mess on Saturday but a great deal of cable inquiry.
 Corn was strong and the best reports show that the crop will be 140,00O000 bush els below last year and that most of the crop that is coming in will grade poorly. There is some selling of provisions by packers and while they may be slow in joining the procession yet they are un- doubtedly intrinsically cheap.
