blankets, that Is. they have cheapened
the process, and the result is to make
their output of little value, either artistic

either passed away or the noble braves of
today find it too costly and too tedious.
Likewise when they can get the same
price for cheaper blankets, why work
for the artistic effect. The ancient way
of using vegetable dyes has been sup

Both Of us had at our front generals

any mistakes, and each of whom had as
strong an army as could be collected

and well equipped; in addition to which
they had the most decided advantage of
operating in their own difficult country

The 18th Of March he turned over to
me the command of the western armies
and started back for Washington, l &C
companying him as far as Cincinnati.
Amid constant Interruptions of business
and social nature, we reached the salts
factory conclusion that, as soon as the
season would permit. all the armies of
the Union would assume the bold Of
fensive" by "concentric lines" on the
common enemy, and would finish up the
job in single campaign, If possible. The
main 'objectives'' were Lees army be-
hind the Rapidan in Virginia and Joseph
r. Johnstons army at Dalton, Ca,
twenty-seven miles south OF Chattanooga,
on the Western and Atlantic railroad.
On reaching Washington Grant studied
with great care all the minutiae Of the
organization, strength, qualities and re-
sources of each of the many armies into
themselves by reason of preceding events,
and in due time with wonderful precision
laid out the work which each one should
undertake. His written instructions to
me at Nashville were embraced in the
two letters Of April and April 10, 1854,
both in his own handwriting, which, In
my Judgment, are as complete as any
of those of the Duke of Wellington con-
tanned in the twelve volumes of his pub
lished letters and correspondence. To all
military students these letters must be
familiar, because they have been pub
Eshed again and again, and there never
can be raised a question of rivalry or
claim between us as to the relative
merits of the manner in which we played
our respective parts.
We were as brothers-I the older man
in years, he the higher in rank We both
believed in our heart of hearts that the
success of the Union cause was not only
necessary to the then generation of
Americans. but to all future generations.
We both professed to be gentlemen and
professional soldiers, educated in the
science of war by our generous govern
ment for the very occasion which had
arisen. Neither of us by nature was
combative man; but with honest hearts
and a clear purpose to do what man
could. We embarked on that campaign,
which / believe. in its strategy. in it's To-
gistics. in its grand and minor tactics,
has added new luster to the old science
of war.

The Horse and It's Cost.

Carefully conducted Investigations
by the agricultural department Of the
University of Minnesota, as we'll as
those conducted by the office of farm
management Of the United States
Department of Agriculture, show
that under ordinary conditions on
American farms work horses are
utilized only about three and half
hours day on the average. Horse
power is thus utilized to less than
half it's capacity. Per unit Of work
done this power costs more than twice
what it should cost, The full utiliza-
tion of the power actually available
wouldSthus reduce materially the cost
Of producing crops. The cost of keep
ing work horse is on the average
about 1925 year. The average utili-
Zation of the horse is about 1850 hours
a year, at an hourly cost of 10 cents
per hour, If we double the number
of hours work The horse dOeS-and
this can be done without injury to
the animal-we reduce the hourly
cost to five cents. W. j. Spillman,

produced in the western States.
approximately one and one.half
million head of cattle and horses and
seven and one-half million head
OF. sheep and goats occupy the Forest
lands each year. These figures do
not include nearly three hundred
thousand calves and over four million
lambs and kids for which permits are
not required.
The experts of the Department be-
lieve that when the ranges which
were denuded by many years of i'm
proper use are restored to normal
condition of productivity 1t will be
possible to provide feed for a much
larger number of stock without In
jury to forest growths or watersheds,
and both the stockgrower and the
consumer of meat products will thus
be benefited. Consequently every ef-
fort is being made to determine prac-
ticable means of regenerating depict
ed ranges. All of the studies which
are about to be initiated have this
point in view.

Every Man Can Learn--If.

No matter what sort of farming
you are doing, you can learn things
about your own business every day.
The man who is not going ahead is
surely going back. You can't stand
still without going back in this age of
hustle. The crowd goes on and leaves
you. One way of learning what your
neighbors are doing is to attend the
fairs and study their exhibits.
You can see what the best of them
are doing there, and compare results
with your own. If they matured
wheat when everybody else had their
crops nipped, there's a reason. If
their hogs are ready for the market
three weeks before yours, there is
some one thing to account for it. The
best farmers are those who study.
They are always learning. If they
make mistakes, and they all do, for
farmers are just as human as other
men, in spite Of some peoples ideas,
they take those mistakes as lessons
and do not repeat them.
