FEEDINc WORK TEAMS.

The problem OF feeding work teams
In way that will get the largest
amount of work out of them has al
ways been hard one. We may give a
team the best of care during the spring
months, but when the real hard work
Of the year comes along, the horses
have run down and are In poor condi-
tion for heavy work. The facts are, we
work horses too hard, and they are put
into hard service without being prop
crly seasoned. One of the largest users
of horses in Chicago keeps his horses
at work only four hours day. The re-
suit is his horses are always In the
pink of condition, and they last from
eight to ten years, while the average
life Of a draft horse on city streets Is
four years.
One should feed to get the greatest
amount of service. Corn and clover
should now be replaced with oats and
timothy or prairie hay. While oats
are as high as they are now, not many
farmers will feed them. But by proper
feeding of both grains and forage the
working efficiency of the team will be
Increased more than enough to make
up the difference in the price OF corn
and oats, ....

poN,r SILL rHE GRAIN.

The experience of farmers in Ohio,
indiana and sections OF Illinois should
emphasize the Importance of keeping
stock on our farms in order to keep
up soil fertility. 1t is stated that farms
In Ohio began to decline about thirty
years ago, and the next census showed
that live stock was declining In the
state at very rapid rate. What has
been the result. Look at the yields
Of wheat and other small grains. They
tell the story OF reduced soils better
than anything else. Besides this, farm
ers In Ohio are paying out more than
100000 year for commercial fertil-
!zers. What is true of Ohio is true
Of Indiana and southern Illinois. Under
BUR system Of cropping there is no way
under the sun to keep up our soils
without buying fertilizers or by feeding
the crops grown upon the farm. The
growing of COW peas In southern Illi-
nois and feeding more live stock will
help matters there. And since the
alarm has been sounded. thousands OF
farmers are turning their fields to
clover and alfalfa and are filling up
their pastures again with stock. .

ALFALFA FOR DAIRY cows.

There are two fundamental princi-
pies Of feeding which every careful
dairyman must keep before him, these
are succulence In food and the digest
ible nctriments In food. No other sim
gle food fills the bill, in these parti-
culars, quite so well as alfalfa 1t comes
on when the earlier grass and clover
crops are gone, and IL 1t is fed green,
right along until fall, the cows will 60
into the winter In capital condition, and
they will be more likely to keep UP
their milk flow during the winter. The
Erofit of feeding alfalfa IL best shown
when we compare II with mill stun. A
ton of good shorts contains about as
much digestible protein as 2,400 pounds
Of alfalfa hay. So with shorts costing
$50 ton, alfalfa hay 10 worth SIG q
ton. But the whole value Of alfalfa
Is not shown by the comparison, fol-
alfalfa may be cut three or four times
during the season and the total yield
Is frequently from four to five tons
per acre. Grow alfalfa and cut out the
big bills for mill feeds. y.

WHEN IS A Low FARE Low FAREa
cleveIand's. Old Street Car Company
Changed Mind at Crucial Moment
From Golfers Weekly.


The street railroad war in Cleveland
reached 4 climax at midnight on April
%, when the Cleveland Electric COM
pany abandoned it's service on the.
Central and Quincy avenue lines, for
which its franchises had expired -ust
before doing this it secured an in
junction preventing any of the allied
low fare companies from operating cars
on those streets, so that fifteen or
twenty thousand people had to walk
the next morning. A new tangle OF
litigation followed. .. #
Meanwhile the old company offered
to accept a new grant on those streets
on the basis of seven tickets for a
quarter-a. little over 3h cents per
ticket-with transfers to most of the
other lines in the city. A scramble foFi
consents of property owners ensuedl
the low fare people Offering SO per
front foot and the old monopoly "a.
The city council, acting under Mayor
Johnson's influence, voted on April 2a
to grant a new franchise to the Low
Fare company to operate In Central.
Quincy, Euclid and Superior avenues
1t also gave permission to the old
company to remove it's Central Quincy
tracks. .u
Although the Cleveland Electric COM
pany had persistently alleged that 3 w
cent fare line could not be run at a
profit, 1t made the rather inconsistend
assertion that its offer OF seven tickets
for quarter with practically uniyer-
sal transfers was really cheaper

Abroad this summer" said tour

Outram lived in Derbyshire, and in the
