The condition of the farmers of the
 United States Is fast assuming a marked change For over a century the American farmer has been com pelled to stand the brunt of all con- ditions, financial and otherwise, but today we are witnessing revolution among the hardy sons of toll that bids fair in the end to be of untold benefit to mankind in general. 1t has been a remarkable fact in the past that an agriculturist was com pelled to accept prices for his prod ucts as dictated by the market jug gler and if he complained he was confronted with the old cry of sup ply and demand But MT. Farmer has learned that when he desired the law of supply and demand did not apply Therefore, as he was con- pelled to accept any price offered for his product and compelled to pay any price demanded for that which he de- sired to purchase. Not having voice either way in the transaction, it became question with the farmer how to regulate the injustice. So We find him today working along lines similar to the trades unions; and by cooperation and organization it is only question of short time until we find the farmer placing his own price upon his products, thereby insuring him a fair return for his labor-The Labor Unit.

Peel and Get RaW-Arms Affected, Too-Gave Up All Hope of Cure.
Quickly Cured by cuticura.

T suffered from eczema on my hands, arms and feet for about twelve years, my hands and feet would swell, sweat and itch, then would become callous and get very dry, then peel off and get raw. 1 tried most every kind of salve and ointment without success. I tried several doctors, but at last gave up thinking there was a cure for eczema A friend of mine insisted on my trying the Cuticura Remedies, but I did not give them a trial until I got so bad that l had to do something. I secured set and by the time they were used l could see a vast improvement and my hands and feet were healed up in no time. I have had no trouble since. Charles T. Bauer, Volant, Pa, Mar. II, 190S."

The Demand For horGes.

While the horse markets are not very active even with moderate re- ceipts, still good horses are selling they belong. Increased business ac- tivity will undoubtedly bring about better horse market The financial and industrial depression has inter- fered with the trade for both busi- ness and pleasure horses. Fewer business horses were required; and as the ones on hand were too ex- pensive 10 keep in idleneSs a good many of them were thrown to market, thus cutting out part of the de- mand for fresh horses. Many busi- ness men ill their efforts to econo- mize have either. disposed of their pleasure horses or refrained from in vesting in them. The automobile has undoubtedly displaced good many horses of both classes, but as the public learns the cost of Keeping au- tomobiles, their rapid depreciation in value and their often infirmities there is a reaction in favor of the horse among people of moderate means, who are learning that it is not best to go too fast or too far in spending money or in getting about. We have known several cases of such reaction even when the preference was for the motor. When business improves the horse market will improve natur- ally. And as it is it looks pretty good compared with only few years ago.-National Stockman and Farmer.

Farmers Educational

About Swine Production.

It is sometimes claimed that pork production cannot be made a profit able business in the South since corn has advanced in prices It is often said that the farmer can buy his pork cheaper than he can make it. But it must be remembered that pork has advanced in price as well as corn, and the cheapest side meat now costs from 10 cents to 125 cents per pound and that hams and shoulders cost from 15 to 20 cents per popnd Corn has advanced in price more rapidly than has pork, but the South is in position to change her feeding meth ods when corn as a sole feed gets out of reach. The Southern hog prices are higher than at either the St Louis or Chicago markets. At the present writing prices all over the South are substantially higher than they are iu Chicago. All condi- tions here are encouraging for hog production We can grow the corn, We have the best markets as far as prices are concerned in America, and we can grow many kinds of pasture crops, the crops which cheapen pork production more than any oihre feed.
 1t is generally considered tha. there is no other feed equal to corn for pork production. This is true, pro- vided the corn is used judiciously. If it be fed alone for any length Of time, there are few feeds which are poorer than corn, but if fed ia com bination with other feeds it's use is to be highly commended, and it can be used to great economical advant- age, too, even though it sells on the market for 70 cents per bushel.
 The hog is not adapted to living on corn alone, and when we require it of him we are forcing him to do a thing which is not consistent with his nature. Man likes mixture of feeds or a change in diet. so do the lower animals The hog in it's wild state is not compelled to live upon one feed alone When wild and free to make it's own choice he is omniy erous, feeding upon roots, nuts, fish, grass, fruit, snakes, and in fact but few feeds can be mentioned that he will not eat if he be given the oppor- tunity. Our domesticated hogs have inherited the tendency to select their foods from variety of substances, and when we enclose them in pen and feed but one feed We can feel assured that we are not allowing them to reach their highest possibili- ties.
 Probably those who claim that pork cannot be produced in the South at a profit mean that it cannot be pro duced on corn alone at profit. If so, that is entirely correct Experiment. al data show that pork can rot be profitably raised and finished upon corn alone when corn sells for 70 cents per bushel.

Chickens as ScaVenuerS,

A few days ago when 1 was prepar- doing it in the field, but as not many of the hens had found the buckWheat field, as it was considerable distance from the poultry house, I decided to haul the buckwheat to the barn before threshing. There is always more or less shattered grain in threshing gather it up. If this shattered grain is where the chickens will find it they will work for it from morning until night. They save all the shat tered grain, and if there is any grain left in the straw it will not damage until spring So the threshing ground will furnish the chickens profitable employment for several weeks, as they will scratch the straw over and over
 Buskwheat is an excellent poultry feed, anyway, and it seems to st!mu late egg production. When 1 am blow ing sod land in the winter and early spring l encourage the chickens to follow the blow for worms and bugs. This serves two purposes-the insects are good for the chickens, and if they are not destroyed they are injurious to the crops-A. j. Legg, in Amercian Farm World.

Anent the much-talked-of cotton shortage, the Texas Trade Review sensibly remarks: The worlds pro- duction of cotton for mill consump- tion in 1907 amounted to 16,512, 1885 bales, whereas the consumption dur ing the year ended August 31, 1908, was 1S,S56,519 bales, fact which indicate the years growth was inad- eouate to the requirements by about 2,240,000 bales. This shortage was made up by drawing from accumu- lated stocks. This inadequacy, how ever, should not be taken as a nor nal one, for there are reasons out side of the ordinary demands for the increased requirements. In other words, there is no guarantee in the shortage to the planter for any large increase in the acreage for the com ing year, although the visible supply of old cotton was small at the begin ming of the season. The only way to make and maintain good prices is by limitation of output. It is not the great bulk of the crop which makes panic prices; it is the pres ence of a small overplus that ruins business.

Grade poultry before marketing. If you have lot of fat hens. a few old hens, persistent breeders, and some cocks to dispose of grade them according to size and quality Good hens in the same coop with old birds and broodies will not raise their qual- ity. but they will be dragged down to the level of the poorest bird and cocks detract from the appearance of the entire coop. There is no good reason why a uniform price should be paid for all chickens.

Hired Man and the Horse.

Every man who works on a farm ought to know how to care for horses By "care" it is not meant that he should know just enough to feed a horse, but he must know how to take care of mare in foa1, how to break a colt and how to feed it to the best advantage He chould know all about horses feeC and something about shoeing, too.

The only danger to the horse breed ing industry is their scarcity, says comes that the price of a good horse is as good or nearly as great as a motor van or automobile, then the people will buy the cheaper article. But that time is distant if the horse breeders keep busy.

Grade Cows For Farmer.

It does not seem unreasonable for the breeders of pure-bred animals to claim that they are the most econom ical producers of dairy products, and that they will give larger and better returns for the amount of food con sumed than grade dairy cattle, but for the common farmer who finds it part of his farm economy to grow and develop his own dairy cows, l believe that high grades will prove fully as well adapted to his require. ments as pure breds.

The experiment station at Raleigh has for the past six months been con ducting some extensive experiments in feeding cotton seed meal to mules and horses. Throughout the state the ration commonly fed to work stock is corn. This is a very undesirable ration from the standpoint of it's heat ing and fattening qualities ard it's excessive cost A small amount of cotton seed meal added to the corn ration would certainly improve it's efficiency according to the protein content of cotton seed meal One and half pounds of cotton seed meal added to the ration for the day will as q general thing be eaten quite freely, although in some cases horses and mules have refused to take it in this amount. Others almost entirely refuse to eat it under any circum- stances. These cases, however, are quite rare. Some animals are quite greedy for the meal, eating it in it's pure form. This has been observed in the work carried on at this station. It is the intention to carry oh this work until practical rations are work ed out. The endeavor now is 10 de termine in what amounts cotton seed meal can be most satisfactorily fed. and the feeds with which it will most satisfactorily combine. Later we hope to give some definite results as to the feeding of cotton seed meal regarding it's special advantages in mu,e and horse rations, both from the standpoint Of efficiency and tinan- cial saving to the farmer.-R $.

 MIGHTY GOOD COUNTRY"

No stronger or better evidence can be given of the merits of a country than that which comes from the testi- mony of the settler who has deter mined to succeed. This is why we reproduce the following letter, which speaks for itself. These people were in- duced to go to Western Canada through the solicitation of a Canadian Government agent, who secured for them the low railway rates.
 "Carma3 gay, Alta, Canada, 12-15'0S.
 MT. c. J. Broughton, Canadian Gov ernment Agency, 135 Adams Street, Chicago: We had audacity enough to tackle the proposition of buying four sections of land in Southern Alberta, thirty miles east of Clairsholm and heading up on the Little Bow, and our two bcys each got a homestead ad- joining. We fenced three sections and the two homesteads, and built house, barn, corrals and granary, and have since enlarged some of these build ings. We have broken 200 acres of land, " lich has been sowed to oats and wheat. During the severe winter of two years ago the winter wheat killed cat somewhat, and our crop yielded only ten bushels to the acre, to the acre. In this country we must be prepared for storms and cold, at times 20 to 50 below zero, yet on the whole the winters are mild; and while there are exceptional crops, it is fair to say that the average farmer can depend on having yield in average years of from 20 to 25 bushels to the acre for spring wheat; and winter wheat il our immediate neighborhood yields from 25 to 30 bushels to the acre on the average
 We lave now quite a bunch of horses. over 50 in all, about $50 sheep, after having sold 40 for mutton this fall. We have 20 head of pure bred registered Shropshire, which are worth S20 each The average price received for mutton sheep was $500 and little over. Pork brings and 6 cents pound. We have about 30 head Of cattle on our ranch now, and last winter they picked their en- tire living from our pasture. running to the s.raw stacks for shelter at night.
 'The increase of land values has been extraordinary. Our land four years ego cost us a little less than $600 al acre. We have sold one sec tion for S15.00, but we would not sell any more for less than S25.00 per acre, as we expect the railroad within four miles Of our ranch within the next IS months. Southern Alberta of West ern Canada is mighty good country for any man or woman who loves outdoor life, and who wants to get good re- turns for their labor and investment.
 We have been pleased with our treatment from the Canadian Govern Ment, and can heartily commend South ern Alberta as splendid country il which to locate.
