HINTS FOR FARMERS
Feed for Draft Colts.

AS soon as a colt will eat grain feed
him all he wants in separate box
from his mother. Oats, bran, molasses
feed and a little shelled corn and oil
meal fed once day will make great
Improvement in the appearance of the
colt. AS the colt grows increase the
feed. The feed won't hurt him, and
the more he is fed the quicker he will
become a horse. Many persons think
that because colt is little he requires
q small ration, but these same people
always kick about their colts being
runty and small, while their ncighbor,
who gives his colt plenty of feed, has
big boned colts, with good square
bodies to go with them.
1t is not Il saving of grain to cut
down on the feed of colts, because 1t
takes more than the feed saved to
bring them out of this dwarfcd stage,
and it is a we'll known fact that colt
can be made to weigh more by SyS-
tematic feeding than by feeding heavily
for awhile. then feeding him cut
down ration. then back to good feed

DiSling after harvest is now being
recommended by men of study and eX-
pcrirncc as an important preliminary
treatment of wheat land. The advan-
tagcs of this practice can be readily
understood when we remember that
usually at harvest the soil is free from
weeds and in good condition to plow.
Soon after harvest and before it can all
be plowed. and especially if there is
wet spell, the weeds grow and inter
fcrc with r.ie plowing. especially the
Russian thistle. What is worse yet.
they take away moisture which should
be saved for the succeeding crop. If,
on the other hand, there is drought i'll
stead of wet weather, with weeds or
without weeds, the land becomes too
dry for best results in blowing, and the
plowing breaks it into great clods or
else this operation must be deferred
until another good rain, which may
come or may not before seeding time
