Raising the Colts Properly.

Most Of the colts on the farm get a
good start the first six months Of
their lives from the fact that they are
allowed to suckle the dams during
that time. Early fall provides them
with good pasture and possibly they
have been receiving some oats or
shared part of the feed Of the mare.
Such treatment puts them in good
shape for the winter, but liberal feed

considerable amount Of bone and mus
Gle building material, and this can be
had by feeding heterogeneous feeds,
such as oats, little clover hay.
The feeding of corn, SO often prac-
ticed, is not desirable for the growing
colt, but had better be confined to
the matured horses. Access to the
straw pile will not hurt growing colt.

VAST WEALTH GOES TO WASTE
Annually Hundreds Of Thousands of
Tons Of suIphuric Acid Are Car
rIed of by Streams.

One of the most interesting of the
byproducts Of the coal mine is sui
phuric acid. Coal veins contain sui
phur, most commonly in chemical CON-
bination with iron. The poorer the
coal the more sulphur is there Such
compounds, becoming oxidized, form
sulphuric acid, great quantities of
which in free state are continually
draining from the mines into the rivers.
This sort of thing is going on at
such a rate that the amount of sui
phuric acid carried away by the
streams of the coal region of penn
sylvania in the course of q year has
been estimated by the water re-
sources branch of the government
geological survey at 100000 tons-a
quantity equal to more than two
thirds of the total sulphuric acid con-
sumed In twelyemonth In the United
States for Industrial purposes.
Sulphuric acid has many uses in the
arts. Among other things, it is en-
ployed to clean iron before the latter
is galvanized; likewise in the treat
ment of sheet iron for making tin
ware, and the wire for fences and
nails. For these and other purposes
$4,000 tons Of 1t are consumed annual
" In and about the city of Pittsburg.
Mark, then, the pity of the circum-
stances that, as determined by the
government exports, no less than 95,-
900 tons OF sulphuric acid flows in a
year past the town of McKeesport. in
the Youghiogheny river-that is to
say, 10000 tons more than is utilized
fndustrially In Pittsburg and its vi
cinity during the same period.
TO put the case otherwise, fully
100000 worth of sulphuric acid. pro-
duced by nature, is carried away every
year by one stream in a neighborhood
where the same stuff is required for
use by thousands of tons in factories.
Here Is a problem for the industrial
chemist to solye-the obvious difficult
ty in the way being that the solution
of acid is so very dilute that attempts
to concentrate 1t would be likely to
prove improbable.
incidentally, the acid robs the
streams of all their oxygen, kills the
fishes, and attacks structures of iron.
1t literally eats up bridge piers, lock
gates, etc., and at the present time Is
making lot Of trouble in the govern
ment canals along the headwaters of
The Ohio.

PAYS TO RAISE GOOD HORSES
Grade Stations Cheaper to Use, But
Pure Bred Colts Sold for Twice
as Much Money.

Fifty-fve dollars is good interest for
the use Of 81 for year. And when
the feed Of colt for another year is
saved the proposition Is all the more
attractive.
A stock farmer living In the south
east part Of the state has been rearing
a number of colts every year, using
the services Of grade stallion.
This horseman wasn't very enthusi-
astic about paying larger fee for the
service Of a pure-bred stallion. He
had been using grade and inferior
sires with a fair degree of success.
He saw no reason for changing.
In the season of 1910 he decided to
try good pure-bred stallion just once,
to see If 1t was worth the difference in
the service fees.
The second week IN this month this
stockman held sale. The three
year-old colts, sired by grade stall
lion, sold at an average of $76. The
two-year-old colts, the progeny Of an
other grade sire, brought an average
Of $46. The weaving colts, sired by a
pure-bred stallion, sold at an average
Of SOL.
The service fee Of the pure-bred
stallion was SIS, that Of the grade So,
a difference Of 81 The feed eaten by
the older colts was saved, and $55
more was received for the weanlings
than the two-year-olds, and $25 more
than the three-yearolds.

most OF the planting Is done at about
the same time will not give as good
results as where period of time
slapses between the second, third or
fourth paintings Of the same vege-
tables. Particularly is this true of
peas, says the Farm and Home. Where
a number Of different varieties were
tried the best results were obtained
from one or two varieties planted in
succession.
In sweet corn, however, this was
not SO apparent. 1t was found best
to rely on several varieties as well as
successive paintings. If the season
was backward or the paintings made
unusually early, sweet corn seemed to
be very slow in growth. On the other
hand, the corn planted later would
grow very fast under favorable con-
ditions and almost catch up with the
drst paintings. To overcome this DIFF
hculty 1t was found advisable to rely
on the paintings Of different varieties.
