.TlMEL Y HINTS
FOR FARMERS
BIanketing the Horse.

The usefulness Of horse can be
prolonged and his efficiency increased
by proper blanlketing and grooming
On arriving at the stable very warm
and sweating the horse should not be
blanketed until he has ceased to
steam, nor should he be left in a
draft. If blanketed at once little OPP
portunity is given for him to dry off,
the blanket win become damp and
the hair remain 50 all night In case
the blanket is not used until the ami
NAL has ceased to steam and is some
what cooled which he will be in a
quarter of All hour, the hair will be
dry and smooth the following morn
ing.
The use of the outdoor blanket is as
important as the use Of the stable
blanket. If the horse is allowed to
stand outdoors. either for short or
for long time. he should be well
.blanketed. II he is going to stop but
a short time the temptation not to
blanket the animal is strong The
horse cools off rapidly and may chill,
so that it is best to blanket if only for
a moment

YE MODISH MUFF
IS CYLINDRICAL
Cushion Muff With Turned Back
Ends on Smart Model.


The Importance of the muff to COM
plete a smart toilet grows each year
in proportion to its size, and in the
present season, when the largest muffs
on record are being carried, hardly a
fashionable woman is seen without
one.
The writer was told recently by a
modiste that the latest Paris idea for
the velvet Cushion" muff, with ends
turned back to reveal the silk lining, is
to have detachable Innings which can
be slipped on easily to match partic-
ular note of the fr0ck. The ends Of
these Innings are fastened with elastic,
which keeps them in position when
turned back cuff-wise over the muff.
Tails on fur muffs are longer and
more plentiful than ever, and in some
cases the muffs are made entirely from
tails.
An interesting innovation is the
evolution of the long fiat muff into a
cylindrical shape This is revival Of
the old fashioned rounded muff, but it
is the first time that this shape has
been used for long muffs.
The feather toques which have been
such feature of the early autumn are
being initiated in muffs. Almost every
species of game bird is used for the
purpose, and stoles are made to match

The HORSES COLLAR
MUST FIT SNUGLY
Neglect Of This Matter Sure to
Result In Sore Shoulders.

Fitting the collar to the horse is a
rather difficult task In the manufac-
ture of collars the leather is soaked
till it is as limp as a rag and then is
fitted over steel form representing
the shape of the horses neck. When
dry these collars are so firm and stiff
that usually it is impossible to buckle
the harness tight enough to bring them
to the shape Of the animals neck, and
the shoulders are therefore adjusted
to the collar rather than the collar to
the shoulders, with sore shoulders as
the result. The neck and shoulders
of no two horses are alike. 1t is there
fore necessary to avoid this soreness
that a stiff collar be adjusted to the
shoulders of the horse for which it is
intended
To do this take the poorly fitting col
lar, new or old, wrap it around and
around again with a thoroughly wet
cloth or place the unwrapped collar In
three inches Of water and let it remain
overnight In the morning put the
collar on the horse and with hame
straps draw it snugly to the sides of
the neck Be sure that the hame
straps are properly adjusted, then
work the horse moderately through
the day. After soaking in this way
the collar will adjust itself to every
inequality Of the shoulder, and the
horse will seldom be troubled with
soreness. Repeat the process when
ever the collar is found not to fit. The
hame straps should be properly adj
justed at top and bottom to suit the
shape Of the horses neck.-M. w.
HarDer.

The Poultry House.

A chief reason for providing house
for the hens Is to give them shelter
from the severe cold, but there is dam
ger of OVERRIDING this. A henhouse
is comfortable enough. even for lay
ing hens, if its interior is kept from
going much below the freezing point
A dry, we'll ventilated house may be
quite cold and yet be comfortable for
active fowls. Plenty of litter to
scratch in during the day and burlap
curtains at night will see them safely
through even severe weather without
loss of health or stoppage of egg pro-
duetion if the feeding and other condi-
lions are correct. Western Poultry

The gas had made it's way into the

The Value Of siIaae.

A 1t is quite difficult to determine the
value of corn silage as compared with
well cured corn fodder acre for acre;
but generally speaking, it is safe to
say that for feeding to the cows an
acre Of corn cut at the proper time
well preserved in the silo is worth 25
per cent more than the same acre
would have been were it placed in
shocks and well cured. Possibly this
may be accounted for by the losses.
which occur to the corn fodder during
the fall and winter caused by rains
which fall upon the shocks and leach
the soluble portions of the feeding nu-
trients from the leaves and stalks and
because many of the palatable leaves
are broken off and blown away.
