HOW TO APPLY PAINT.

Greatest care should be taken when
painting buildings or implements
which are exposed TO the weather, TO
have the paint applied properly No
excellence Of material can make up
for carelessness Of application, any
more than care in applying it can
make poor paint wear well.
The surface to be painted should be
dry and scraped and sandpapered

brushed out, not flowed on thick.
When painting is done in this manner

Moose Jaw, Sask., Nov. 18th. 1907.
Writing from Moose Jaw. Saskatche-
wan, Mr.. S. X. Rathwall says:
II have much pleasure In saying
that on my farm this year had 500
acres in wheat, and 120 acres in oats.
My wheat averaged about % bushels
per acre, and | had 200 acres cut be-
fore the frost. which / sold at so
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,
Il got touched with frost but is worth
so cents per bushel. 1t will net me
$500 per acre, but l do not intend
to sell it at that price, as l can make
more money by feeding 1t to hogs.
"My oats turned out about Obushels
to the acre, and at 35 cents per bushel
will give me sl700 to the acre, not
counting seed, twine and labor.
"On 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"

HOW TO TREAT
POTATO SCAB

Potato scab Is well-known and
widespread disease which does an
immense amount of damage TO the po-
tato crop annually. Injury and conse-
'quent losses due TO scab remain very
large. in spite OF the fact that the
cause and efficient methods OF con-
trolling the disease have been known
for many years. The minute parasitic
organism which causes the disease
was discovered and described by Ro.
land Thaxter Of the Connecticut state
station in 1890. and several other sta
tious have contributed to the working
ont OF efficient methods OF treatment
OF the disease. The roughened, scab-
By. pitted surface OF potato tubers due
to scab Is well-known practically
everywhere that potatoes are grown,
and the use of untreated seed and the
too common practice OF reserving un'
salable. scabby tubers for planting has
resulted in an increase rather than in
a decrease OF the disease in many To-
calities.
In a bulletin OF the Maine station
w. J. Morse summarizes the more i'm
portant practical facts regarding the
disease as follows:
Crop infection on old land may come
from the soil. from the seed, or from
both. On new land the source is large
ly from undisinfected seed, Soil con
ditions. the application OF lime, ashes
chip dirt. etc. may favor the develop
ment Of seab. but are incapable Ct
causing IL.
Alkaline soils, the use OF stable ma
nure. lime, ashes and certain chemi
calls OF alkaline nature favor the fun
gus. Acid soils and certain othel
chemicals are unfSSorable 10 t.
Beets and the roots OF few othel
vegetables are attacked by the dis
ease, but the fungus may persist IL
infected soil for several years without
the presence OF known host plants.
Badly infested soils should be de
voted TO such crops as grains, grasses
and elovers for as long a time as pos
sible. Fertilizers favorable TO seal
should be avoided and "sourlng" tn
soil by green manurips is recon
mended.
On clean soils only healthy. disin
fected seed tubers should be used. Ma
nure containing uncooked scabby Do
tAtoes or refuse should be avoided

locomotion are attached 70 bones. and

motion produced by the action OF the

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

legs he cannot travel. and so derives
no benefit from his good parts Some
horses may be seen whose knees are
not straight. others when looked at
from the front show that their feet
are not in line with their legs. Such
animals are more likely 10 slip or
strike one leg with the opposite foot,
thus making themselves lame and un-
able TO do any work.
There are a great many Interesting
things about horse which cannot be
told here, but which you may learn at
home or from some neighbor who
keeps good horses. We will. however,
say something about horses feet. In.
side a horses hoof there are some
very sensitive parts resembling the
attachment OF the finger-nail and the
finger. When anything gets wrong
with the foot. these parts cause a
great deal OF pain and. even though
the horse is otherwise perfect. the
pain In his feet makes him too lame

feet, that are wide across where they

are not likely TO have this trouble.
