pasture For Eoals.


There is far more in arranging about
pastorage than is often supposed. A
pasture may be good for calves and
COWS and poor for foals and horses.
In respect to the pasture deemed best
for foals a Kentucky exchange advises
as follows:
1t is not required to have for such a
purpose what is known as rich land.
Very rich land produces rank grass,
and this is not the sort to make fine,
strong bones and muscles of the firm
and enduring sort. Foals raised on
such material will be pretty sure to
be lacking in spirit. being slow of
movement and deficient in wind. so
that when placed in harness to be re-
CURED to go at moderately fast pace
something not likely to be done except
by frequent application of the whip
they breathe heavily, sweat much and
soon tire.
The best soil for foals is one that Is
dry. Sometimes this is secured by
natural and at other times by artificial
causes. If the soil abounds in rocks
scattered about and that are a foot or
more in diameter, they are not Objec-
tionable, but small stones are faulty,
because the foals in running are liable
to strike them and so injure their
hoofs. The grass on the lands needed
for foals should be sweet and tender
Thus every part of the animal grows
as it should.

National Income and Outlay.

Before the money which the people
of this country contribute annually to
run the government has been trans
ferred from the individual pocket to
the chests of the disbursing agent sew
eral committees have a hand in esti-
mating and deciding on the amount to
be raised and how it shall be expend-
ed. That these committees do not al
ways work in coordination is evident
whenever important financial measures
are before congress. Each department
of government has q committee, and
its estimates come before the commit
tee on appropriations, finally to be TAX
en- care of by the committee On ways
and means. Recently the chairman of
the committee on appropriations de-
clared that the committees on military
and naval affairs are asking for near
~ as much money as either Germany
or Great Britain expends on account of
war purposes, yet our establishment
is smaller by fer, notably in the size
of the army, than the establishments
maintained by those powers
That the above announcement was
startling one is evident from the APP
peal which followed from the same
source. The chairman concluded with
the statement that the government can
rely upon the patriotism and loyalty
of the people, who are at all times
ready and willing to sacrifice their
property in defense of their govern
ment Evidently the people are ex-
pected to make the sacrifice blindly.
They may learn exactly how big an in
come is wanted, but take chances on
knowing where the money is to go.
Perhaps more systematic govern
ment regulation of itself and fuller
publicity of the nations business
would help to sustain public confidence
and stimulate deeper loyalty to our in
situations.
