Effects of Drainage.

BY means of drainage of land the
various chemical actions which take
place through the action of the atmos-
phere on the surface soil are carried
down to greater or less extent into
the subsoil. for as the water level is
lowered the air enters from above to
fill the cavities Of the soil. BY drain
age, also, the depth to which roots
will penetrate is increased. for the
roots will not grow in the absence Of
oxygen, and rot as soon as they reach
permanent water level.

Mules for Market.

The advantage Of mule over a
horse Is he can be taught to turn short
er, thus preventing the breaking down
Of vegetables or other plants. He can
go in rougher places, is not affected
by heat as bad as the horse and re-
Quires less attention in the way Of
currying, rubbing, etc. His feet
being smaller, he can walk closer to
the row Of growing plants.
To make good mule worth from
$50 to $50 at weaving time or $40
to $16O as a 2-year- old, he should be
foaled from a large mare in April or
May. He should run with the dam
until October 1. then be weaned. At
this time he should be at least 80
inches. Put him in ashed with plenty
Of light, and feed oats with clover and
timothy hay. Two much corn fevers
the legs and produces scratches. The
next summer he should have access to
pasture. with a little corn each day.
until cold weather. when he should be
brought back to the barn. At or 211
years old he should be 16 hands high,
fat and ready for market.

Stick to Your Business.

stick to Your Business.
1t is the man who hammers away
that succeeds. The last two years
have given great hog prices. Many
rushed headlong into the hog business.
The hog market is very discouraging,
as result Many will call the
business Improbable and will, perhaps,
undertake the growing or feeding of
some other class of live stock.
1t takes time to be prepared to
handle hogs properly. and the man who
does it in profitable way will not lose
money when the prices are low; and if
he sticks to the business, the rising
tide that Is sure to follow every de-
pressed or glutted market will reap
him nice profit.
The same is true in regard to the
raising of any class of farm animals.
Cattle, sheep. hogs and horses have
their ups and downs in the market.
The winner in the end is the one who
chooses the class of animals he likes,
prepares himself to take care Of them
well. uses good blood. and continues
business through adversely as well as
during the balmy days Of prosperity.
Generally speaking when everybody
sells out and prices are low, is good
time to stock up: when everybody
turns buyer, and hogs, cattle or sheep
are eagerly sought for. 1t is good time
to sell. The sure. certain road to a
good income is to choose line Of work
and follow it closely. The other oper-
ations are really side lines and can 60
