TRIMMING THE FEET.

One must be very careful about the feet
of show animals. Overgrown hoofs are a
great eyesore, and sooner or later are likely
to throw the animals off in their hooks and
hind legs. They should be frequently dres-
sed, kept clean and in good shape. The fol-
lowing tools may be used in this work: A
heavy wooden mallet, an inch and half
chisel, blacksmith's pairing knife, a rasp
and file. BY the careful use of the same
the feet OF any animal may be kept in good
condition.

FARM < LIVE STOCK NOTES
y r. g. MInkIsr, N. j. Experiment Station.

Two carloads Of live stock arrived at the
College Farm last week to be used in the
Judging and demonstrating work during
the short courses which commence at New
Brunswick on December 3. Standard types
OF the various breeds were selected and will
serve as splendid specimens for score card
practice. The famous Jersey bull, Rex, of
River Meadow, is included in the ship
ment and be is conceded to be one of the
grandest bulls Of the island breed. He has
never been defeated and has marched
through the Eastern fair circuit three years
in succession. The value Of pure bred sires
in the dairy herds of this State is beginning
to be recognized as never before, and the
students and farmers who arrange to attend
these courses will be privileged to see and
study some of the choicest types to be
found.

II is strange financial situation when
manufacturers, with orders to fill, and
ample capital, must close their works be-
cause they, cannot get money to pay their
workmen. 1t is strange condition when
a great firm like DuPonts Powder Co. must
pay their workmen in checks, and merchants
refuse them in payment of store bills. We
have had panics in the past, but none like
this. What's the matter?
Gloucester County Democrat. (Woodbury, N.J.) 1878-1932, 1907-11-28

concerned. Is is economy to give each
animal its food allowance as nearly at the
same hour each day as possible. The diges-
tive system Of the animal adapts itself to
receive food OF certain time. If the food
is not furnished at the usual time, the ami
NAL begins to worry. and as a result, re-
quires more food to produce given amount
OF gain or milk. Grain feeding twice each
day, morning and night, is sufficient for
mature animals, with the exception OF
horses and swine and better results are OBJ
tanned by the practice of feeding three
times, making the heavy grain feed at
noon and of roughage in the evening.
GROOMING.
This is the most necessary part OF the care
of animals intended for the ring 1t is just
as essential during the last three months as
careful feeding. Cattle which haye been
well bedded and kept clean can usually be
gotten into good form by about three
months grooming. 1t is half the battle in
showing cattle to have their coats in good
condition, and stock owners who fail to
have their cattle in the very best possible
form need not expect to win in strong COM
petition. If you wish to shed the coat,
this may be done by the use of warm
blanket. II one is not sufficient, use two.
The blankets need not be kept on except
during the day. In addition, wash the
animals at least twice week with carbolic
soap and tepid water. This will cleanse
the skin and do away with all dandruff and
other scurff In grooming, use a good soft
brush and piece Of thick flannel or cham
ois skin, and the skin will soon become soft
under this treatment. The curry comb, if
used at all, must be used very lightly, as
| it. is likely to scratch and irritate the skin.
A skillful user of the cloth does his rabbing
| in quick manner, as then it is much more
effective. Constant use of good flannel
cloth is the only sure and safe way OF Sc
curing soft and shining coat of hair. In
putting on the final touch, nothing is more
effective than the use Of the bare hand in
rubbing. A good coat of hair and soft
mellow touch cannot be secured in week.
1t will take at least two months of faithful
work.
Gloucester County Democrat. (Woodbury, N.J.) 1878-1932, 1907-11-28

In the care of farm animals, the atten-
dant should remember that quietness and
contentment are always conducive to the
best results in both meat and milk pro-
duction. This being true, every effort
should be made to avoid disturbance Of
any kind. Loud talking, barking dogs OF
the clubbing of animals are all very costly
to the owner of the animals. Too much
attention cannot be given TO the question
OF water supply. All animals should be
supplied with an abundance of pure fresh
water. Ii is very expensive business 10
allow animals to become real thirsty. Such
treatment not only worries the animal bnt
causes the animal to later on drink an alb
normal amount of water which usually
deranges the digestive and secretiye organs
and causes an unnecessary waste OF tissues.
In the successful management Of farm
animals, other things in addition to the
supply Of food must be given due consid-

st. Petersburg, Dec. 13.-Gen.
Kuropatkin testified yesterday at
the TRIAL NY court-martial of
Lieut.. Gen. Stoessel and other
army officers of high rank charged
Wish needlessly surrendering Port
Arthur to the Japanese. and
what he said made sensation in
the courtroom.
He declared that the Japanese
could have taken Port Arthur by
assault in the early days of the
war. The defences were then so
incomplete, Gen. Kuropatkin went
on. that the fortress must have
fallen at the first vigorous attack
but the slowness of the Japanese.
and the resistance made by the
army in the field gave the Rus
SLAMS time to improvise defense
work. which would have with
stood the Japanese for months.
On the whole Gen. Kuropatkin g
evidence was favorable to Gen.
Stoessel.
