sheep .. Pasture 1mprover..

From a bulletin issued by the South
Dakota experiment station we take
the following: I'VE are convinced that
the addition of five or six head Of
sheep for each COW will tend to in
crease the productiveness Of a very
weedy pasture nearly II not quite to
the extent Of the amount consumed by
the sheep. After few years, when
the weeds have been exterminated, the
relative number OF cows may be in
creased, but of course the proportion
Of cows to sheep as well as the total
amount of stock that can be profitably
kept upon given area will depend
upon the nature Of the soil and the
vegetation, the locality, the climatic
conditions, ETC."

Horses Injured by Millet.

In some tests conducted by the North
Dakota station it was clearly demon
strated that millet hay when used en-
ttrely as coarse food is injurious to
horses-frst, in producing an increas-
ed action of the kidneys; second, in
causing lameness and swelling Of the
joints; third, in producing infusion of
blood into the joints; fourth, in de-
ytroying the texture of the bone, rem
herring it softer and less tenacious, so
that traction caused the ligaments and
muscles to be torn loose.

CARE OF FARM HORSES.
The Cause, kVevention and Cure of
Mud Fever.

The Cause, kSeventiOn and Cure of
Mud Fever.
Mud fever is product of the autumn
and winter months. 1t is likely to be
extremely prevalent among horses
some seasons unless precautions are
adopted to prevent its occurrence says
an English correspondent of American
Agriculturist.
Innumerable cases of mud fever are
due to the practice of washing the
bodies and legs of horses when they
come In from work. The wisest thing
to do is to scrape off as much of the
mud as possible and leave the remain
der to be brushed off when it becomes
dry and powdery. The sheath and
dock, however, may be sponged and
dried as usual, for the cause of mud
fever seems to be the application of
water to the hair of the body and
limbs.
The symptoms of mud fever are a
heat and tenderness of. the skin and a
sort of pimply eruption underneath the
coat. The latter will not lie down and
in severe cases comes off in patches,
while the eruption increases until sore
places appear. The affected animal
will often go lame and may not be fit
to work for some time if 1t is a bad
case and not taken in time.
The first thing to do when it becomes
clear that it is case of mud fever
is to give the horse a dose of cooling
physic and to cut off his supply of
corn by placing him on a diet of
mashes and soft food. If no improve
ment is perceptible professional adj
vice should be sought.

ANNUAL INSURANCE MEETING.
Stockholders. of Farmers Mutual Fire In
surance Co. Hold Big Meeting.


Judging by the large turnout at
the annual meeting of the Farmers
Mutual Insurance Company of the
Town of Red wood Falls last Satur-
day, Redwood county farmers are
alive to the Importance of carrying
their own insurance by the mutual
plan. About $50 stockholders OF
the company we're present az the
meeting, almost every township in
the county being represented.
When it is.considered that last Sat
urday morning started in with a
small blizzard. the large attendance
is the more notable.
President Steele called the meet
ing to order with short introduc-
tory, congratulating the stock
holders on their going an entire
year without an assessment, and
commanding the interest shown by
their large attendance. -
J. A. Larson was recognized by
the chair, and on behalf of Mayor
Black made a clever address of
welcome to the members of the con-
vention, asking them to come again.
To this Secretary A. D. Stewart
replied, assuring the Wabasso PEG
pie and Mr.. Larson that they had
become converted to accepting Wa
basso as the place for the annual
meeting, as it was not only central
ly located, but possessed a most
homelike and comfortable hotel for
the entertainment of visiting stock
holders.
Secretary Stewart read the annu
al report which appears herewith
He subsequently called attention tt
several changes relating to policy
forms and statements, one of then
being the insurance of wheat II

not been pointed out in the discus
sion, by Ex-president Bredvol
! and others, that change of nam
might involve inyalidating policie

other stumbling block was the pre-
vision of law making it compulsor
