RATl0NS ON THE FARM.
Principle Upon Which Regulated Stock
Proven6er Is Based.

ProVen6er Is Based.
The farmer reads great deal about
feeding rationS. much Of which Is all
Greek He is APT TO class it ameng the
scientific talk" that does net directly
appeal TO his needed knowledge. This
IS mistake. The agricultural colleges
GO deep into the matter and anearth
truths that will greatly assist the farm
er TO reap iot Of COED
A little plain talk about what these
rations mean may lie Of great worth TO
those who keep stock.
It is to be admitted that much Is said
In the agricultural Journals on this sui
ject that is not practical, but yet the
application Of a few primary princi-
pies to feeding suggests the way that
practical feeds are doing things.
There are five classes of materials in
feeding stuffs-yiz, protein, earhohy-
drates, oil ar fat, minerals and water.
The mission of protein is 10 produce
lean meats in the body. make blood.
build up new tissues. etc. BY carhohy
{rates is meant the starchy materials
which give heat. fat and energy They
represent simply that part of hay.
corn, potatoes and bread that goes to
keep the body warm. produce energy
for work and fat where the animal Ell
iarges.
Cotton seed has good deal OF fat or
oil. while eern has moderate amount.
The latter constituent. like starch. will
also furnish heat. energy and fat and.
being more concentrated than the
Starchy materials. will afford mors
than twice as much heat. fat or energy
as will an equal amount of starch or
sugar.
Mineral substances make teeth and
bones and TO certain extent contrib
ute to muscle aud flesh. Professor
Burkett of the Kansas experiment sta
ton says we take the bran from the
wheat and give ii to our cattle and
pigs, giving only the soft white part
of the wheat to cur children which is
lacking III mineral materials. This Is
often the way with a good deal of our
food That explains why our children
often have poor teeth and weak bones.
ittii Ndlti IL ou itilpth
ingredient in foodstuffs. People must
have protein for bone, muscle aud
blood. They must have starchy ma
teriIs and fat To keep the body warm,
to create energy and To make fat.
In corn alone there would not be sCf
ticient protein TO supply the wants of
the body TO add timothy hay, for
instance. to corn. as is So often done
in feeding work horses. there would
still be a lack Of protein, as there is
very little protein in timothy. But If,
instead OF feeding all corn. few
pounds of bran or cottonseed meal or
inseed oil meal would be added, then
you would more correctly balance the
ration, supplying the protein.
The above ration is merely gieen to
explain the point. That it can be i'm
proved upon there is lie question. The
secret il feeding. therefore, is 10 fur
nish the necessary ingredients in the
proper proportion. When you feed corn.
cottonseed meal, alfalfa and clover
hays ar the mixed ration you are sup
plying necessary materials for growth.
maintenance and fat production.

rarely found outside large town are
now common in many farmhouses.
Machinery which was Thought to be OF
practical service only on smooth city
streets may now be found in the coun-
try. The picture shows large lanto-
truck which does the business fer a
fruit farm Ii is shown I'm actual use
at Greenwich. Conn, carrying peaches
to market some eight miles distant.
This machine has fifty horsepower
engine, its maximum speed is fifteen
miles an hour, and its approximate
cost Is $4,000. The superintendent is
much pleased with the machine in
every way and says that ii is very
practical and serrieeable and takes the
place of at least six horses. Forty
three barrels Of apples can be carried
with perfect ease. Ii will carry hun
dred bushels of potatoes In the load
shown here there are 100 baskets of
peaches. and considerably more eouh
have been added. Both trips TO mar
ket are made to count. as, returning
the truck takes back supplies for the
farm and its operation. Such a truck
as this will climb any grade that is
found on traffic thoroughfares. and or
binary mud has no terror for it at all.
BY means Of trucks like these markets
are brought close to the farmers, thus
msuring a quick disposal of the farm
products. Much labor is saved. and
much more work can be accomplished
for less money.

Pumpkins That Talk.

found in the lordjy pumpkin. Bruise
a growing pumpkin and the scar will
never be cleared away, but will show
In the ripe pumpkin in the shape of
delicate little yellow warts. Starting
with this principle alone, shrewd
farmers have made their pumpkin
farms valuable. After the vegetables
get good sized and prove that they
will be fine ones they 20 into the

words of warts legends like these:

Fancy prices are to be had for these

crop produce wealth in pumpkins.

Farm Value of loads.

of the toad. and 1t is found that ii is

moths. wireworms and potato bugs. all
of which damage farmers crop or

stomach of one toad were found seven

other were thirty-seven tent caterpil.
lars. in another sixty-ffve gypsy moths
were found and in still another fifty
five army worms. 1t is said that
eighty-six heuseworras have disap-
peared down the throat of one toad
in less than ten minutes. and the rec
ord of stufiing is held by another. who
was still hungry after consuming nine
