THE GOOD HORSE AND
HOWTO PICK HIM OUT
He for and Must Have Good
Muscles F. Marshall.

that in buying horses to draw heavy
loads we look for large and heavy
muscles; while in roadsters we must
attach Importance to the length of the
muscles.
The most of horses muscle is in
the hind quarters. This may be a
surprise to you, but the next tins you
have an opportunity to see horse
pulling a very heavy load, study him
carefully. You will be impressed
with the idea that most of the work
is being done with the hind legs.
When the hind foot is moved forward
the toe rests on the ground and the
leg is bent at the hook joint; if the
toe does not slip and the horse is
strong enough for his load the mus
cles above, pulling on the tendon fas-
tened to the back and upper point of
the hook, will close to the joint, or in
other words, straighten the leg and
cause the body to move forward. 1t
is by the performance of this act at
every step that the horse moves, al
though, of course, the strain on all
parts is much greater when pulling

very hard. This will also show The
necessity for having large, broad,
straight joints and legs that give t1e
horse the most secure footing -
Then there are some other thing >
that are desired on all kinds CT
horses. One Of these is a short bacl,
that is, short from the hips down to
the top of the shoulders 1.-THE withersI.
From what We have learned of tie
hind parts we see that the horse is
really pushing the rest of his body
along. If the back is short and
strong instead Of long and weak, the
whole body will move more easily and
rapidly in obedience to the force pro-
duced in the hind parts.
Although the, hind parts have most
to do with the horses travelling, we
must not forget that the front parts
are also very important. No matter
how much muscle a horse has OF how
strong his hooks are, if there is any
thing seriously wrong with his front

1t is almost impossible to imagine
that people could live without horses.
Certainly living in a horseless world
would be a sorry experience in con-
trast to our present enjoyment of
comforts and conveniences.
In the United States there are about
one-quarter as many horses as people.
Three-fourths of these horses are on
farms although, of course, there are in
the country a great many colts that
are to be sold to go into the cities.
To the horses that do the work on the
farms we are indebted for the produc-
ton of most of what we eat If we live
in the city, even though we do not
keep horses of our own, we are de-
pendent upon those of the grocery
man and the coal dealer to bring to us
the necessities of life. Who has not
noticed the butcher boy, jerking and
whipping his poor, thin horse in or
der to avoid the scolding he knows
he will receive if the housekeeper
does not receive the meat at the prop
er time?

kets, ETC., which have been in contact
with infected land or tubers.
Small amounts of seed are best dis
infected by soaking: (a) Two hours in
solution Of one-half pint formalfn to
Is gallons of water, or (b) one and
one-half hours in two ounces of cor
rosive sublimate dissolved in Is gal
Ions Of water.
For large quantities of seed, formal.
dehyde gas, generated by the use Of
potassium permanganate, is the most
practical disinfecting agent. Place
seed tubers in bushel crates or shall
low, slat-work bins in a tight room.
For each 1000 cubic feet of space
spread % ounces of potassium psr-
manganate evenly over the bottom of
large pan or pail in center of room.
Pour over this three pints of formalin,
leave room at once and allow to re-
main tightly closed for "a to 4S hours.
The corrosive sublimate Ga deadly

under the name of formalin, a 40 per

the potassium permanganate can be

sublimate costs about Is cents per

not less than So per cent. of Tornado

Treatment is therefore neither verJ
expensive nor difficult to apply &C

All muscles concerned with
are attached to bones. and
when they contract they cause the
bones to which they are fastened to
move The lower part of a horses
legs are nearly all bone, but the mus
cles in the body and upper part of the
limbs are attached to various parts of
the bony construction by tendons and
can thus produce motion of the parts
located some distance away. The
muscles we are discussing, when con-
tracted, are about three-Quarters as
long as when at rest. The amount OF
motion produced by the action of the
muscles of say one of the horses hind
legs, will depend upon the length of
the muscles and the length and the re-
lation of the bones to which they are
attached. The common idea among
students of this subject is expressed
in these words: Long muscles for
speed. short muscles for power" We
have already seen that long muscle
enables a horse to get over the ground
rapidly. A short muscle, however, is
not powerful because it is short, but
because in horses constructed on tha
plan the muscles are thicker, contain
more fibers, all Of which pulling to
| gether when contracted exert a mucl
greater pulling force than long. mor'

ferent kinds of horses. A horse is of
no particular value except for what
he can do To fulfill his mission he
must travel. II he can draw buggy
containing one or two persons at the
rate of ten miles an hour he is valu-
able as a roadster. Another horse,
that can draw his share of a load
weighing upwards Of a ton, even
though he moves slowly, performs an
equal amount of actual work and is
just as useful to his owner as is the
roadster. Since all horses are valu-
able because they travel, although at
various rates and under widely vary
ing conditions, it will be interesting
to make study of those parts of the
horses body directly connected with
his iocomotion.
1t is not difficult to understand that,
with the horse as with ourselves, all
motion is the result of the action Of
the muscles. About 40 per cent. of
the weight of an ordinary horse is

HIS WHEAT WENT q
BUSHELS TO THE ACRE.
He REALIZED $1s PER ACRE FROM
IT, WHILE OATS GAVE HIM
$f7 AN ACRE.

Moose Jaw, Sask., Nov. 18th, 1907.
Writing from Moose Jaw, Saskatche-
wan, Mr.. S. K. Rathwall says:
Il have much pleasure in saying
that on my farm this year 1 had 500
acres in wheat, and 100 acres in oats.
My wheat averaged about % bushels
per acre. and I had 200 acres cut be-
fore the frost, which l sold at S5
cents per bushel, thus realizing on
that wheat $500 per acre, not count
ing cost of twine, seed and labor With
regard to the other 800 acres of wheat,
it got touched with frost but is worth
go cents per bushe1. 1t will net me
$500 per acre, but I do not intend
to sell it at that price, as can make
more money by feeding it to hogs.
my oats turned out about 50bushels
to the acre, and at 35 cents per bushel
will give me $500 to the acre, not
counting seed, twine and labor
ION account of the late spring, a
percentage of the grain was touched
with frost, but on account Of good
prices, farmers will realize a fair
profit on their farms even this year.
We are as usual up against a short.
age of cars to get our grain removed"
