CLIP YOUR HORSES
EVERY YEAR
European Farmers Treat Their
Horses Thus Twice a Year.

Horses should be clipped at least
once and sometimes twice a year. 1t
has been demonstrated number OF
times that every horse should be
clipped. In Europe farmers and horse
owners generally clip their horses in
the spring, and sometimes in the fall,
but when the horses are clipped in the
fall, they should be protected by a
blanket or other covering If allowed
to stand in the open air any length of
time, especially If they have been do
ing work Clipping seems to put new
life into the horse, as it relieves him
of the extra coat and readily permits
the cleaning brush to do its work prop
erly so that the pores are open and
free at all times to rid the animal
of waste matter, for which the nat
ural outlet is through the skin pores.

HORSE ASLEEP TWO WEEKS
Animal Does Not Awaken After Slid.
ing Down Side of California
Mountain.

San Bernardino, Cal.-Charles Muir,
a mine owner of Wild Rose canyon.
has horse which went to sleep two
weeks ago and has not awakened
since. That it slowly is coming out
of its repose, Muir says, is evident by
its increasing susceptibility to the re.
port of shotgun, with which he has
daily tested its power of hearing.
More than two weeks ago the horse
was lost and when found it was in a
gorge. Muir discovered where it had
slid down a steep side of the noun
tain. The animal was bruised, but
was led back to the Muir place. Muir
threw a forkful of alfalfa to the ami
NAL, but the next morning was sur
prised to find the horse still standing
where he had left it. The feed had
not been touched.
Muir discharged shotgun close to
the horse and a slight jerk of its head
indicated that the noise had been
heard, and this had been kept up
daily. Teamsters believe the horse
strained or Jared the nerves which
control consciousness.

For generations men have watched
this plant and have realized its i'm
portance. They have seen its tre-
mendous yields west of the Missouri
river and in the arid state, and many
farmers realizing its value have tried
to grow it in the eastern and central
states. Unfortunately, some portions
OF the country are not naturally adapt
ed to growing this plant, and there
have been many failures, which have
discouraged the farmers. We are glad
to note now, however, that scientific
study of the subject appears to have
solved practically all of the troubles,
and that it is possible to grow this
plant In any state in the Union, and
to make it succeed in splendid condi-
tion even where the soil is not natural
ly adapted to it, Men are doing this
all over the country to-day, says c.
b. Wing in the Farmers Review, max
ing their soil right where it is not
so naturally, and their success Is in
spring. Entirely too much mystery
has been made of the growing Of al
about trying it, simply because jones
recommends one method and Smith
another and the uninitiated are uncer-
tain as to what the proper way really
is. Alfalfa really requires four things:
Lime, drainage, inoculation the condi-
We think we have stated the condi-
tions in the order of their relative i'm
portance. We believe there have Leen
more failures throughout the country
owing to the lack of sufficient lime in
the soil than from any other single
cause; and we feel sure that the inter
est that is now being taken in the
question of lime, and the number of
men who are using lime on land on
which they contemplate sowing alfal-
ia, will result in very large increase
in the acreage of this plant. Formerly
it was supposed that there were al
falfa belts" throughout the eastern
and central states which were the
only places in which alfalfa could be
successfully grown; but this theory
is now rapidly becoming obsolete, be-
tions sufficiently to permit splendid
success with alfalfa IN every state in
the union, and this in the face of the
fact that many Of their localities were
very ill-suited to it's growth. 1t now
seems to careful observers that the
reason why alfalfa succeeded so splen-
didly west of the Mississippi river is

Not the least of the benefits derived
from the rural mail by any means is
the responsibility it creates for the
maintenance of good roads in COM
munities that desire the service. At
Atlanta, Mo-, the government revoked
a rural route because the people
would not keep the roads along the
route in good repair 1t is not possible
that there are many communities in
Missouri where the people would part
with their rural mail service rather
than exhibit the enterprise necessary
to make the roads accessible for the
mail carrier. If it is understood that
there will be no mail service where
good roads are not maintained, as the
governments policy at Atlanta ap-
pears to indicate, then hail to the
rural mail carrier as the advance
agent of better roads and consequent
ly q better day!-Exchange.
