satisfactory unless with polled or de-
horned cattle. II the steers possessed
horns there was generally great deal
OF trouble going on. | then tried the
loose box stall method and finally
adopted the swinging stanchion meth
Cd, with floor as for dairy cows.
now recommend this method to all
who wish to get the greatest amount
OF weight on in the least time with the
least amount of grain.
There are some who will object to
the necessary expense for such a meth
cd OF feeding. will give one case to
show how such method pays. Not
far from my place is dairy farm with
a herd of thirty cows. BY feeding
these cows In a stable with stanchions
the annual expenses were lessened
$1,000 over the out of door method.
The saving came In time. feed and la
Dor. I believe the same saving will
result with fattening steers.
For economical feeding Of beef cat
tie in stalls and stanchions. especially
during the times Of short crops and
consequent imitation of prices. l would
advise putting most of the clover hay
through power cutter. Some uncut
hay can be fed during the middle of
the day or at night. For high feeding
on ground mixed grain and mill feed
l recommend in connection with such
feed that the cut hay be dampened and
thn food nd hox hr
Mix in the proportions of one gallon Of
cornmeal. one gallon of bran and wheat
mtddlings to bushel of the cut hay
Give all at night and morning that the
cattle will clean up. At noon give IL
moderate feed Of mixed ground grain
together with some uncut hay.
Dat hay or straw can be cut the
same as clover and mixed with ground
grain. If clover is high in price the
oat hay or straw makes a profitable
substitute. The underlying idea of all
that has been said is to feed the cattle
abundantly with flesh and fat forming
feeds and yet economic on food ma
terial
I believe that cattle feeder should
put into practice some of the methods
that he sees around him. 1t will be to
his advantage to study the methods of
feeding dairy cattle. for the same
methods that produce good milk flow
will enable the feeder to grow large.

never had any experience in feeding

prove just as successful In the case of
fattening cattle as it has with dairy
feeding.

TRAINING THE HORSE.

Kindness and Patience Are Essential
to Success.
If you want a good disposition in
that colt which is to become part of
your farm next spring begin now to
make it such by being kind to the
prospective mother. writes j. F. Cor
don in National Stockmun. An oath.
kick. a lash with the whip will leave
its mark upon the foal. Kindness In
ninety-nine cases out OF every hundred
will win. There is more power even
with a horse In kind words than in
oaths.
Patience is indispensable in the care
and training of the young horses. Per.
haps more well bred. high spirited
horses are ruined by the Impotence of
the owner than from any other one
cause. When we begin the training of
young horses two or more years old
without any previous handling We
should be very careful to remember
that they are entirely ignorant Of the
meaning Of the terms we use.
We sometimes act as though we
trained in the art of doing different
kinds of work in very few days. and
If he does not we become impatient
and very often abuse him.
Kindness. patience and irmness are
the trinity in successful handling of
horses. Kindness implies that the
horse is properly fed and cared for, pa
tience that he has been allowed plenty
of time to learn the things you require
him to do and firmness that you re-
quire obedience from him both In and
out of the harness. That gentle firm
ness in the parent compels the child to
respect and admire the same. So gen.
tie firmness with the horse results In
willing service. No place in the train
ing of the horse is this firmness needed
more than in teaching the horse to
start and stop at your command. 1t
sometimes becomes necessary for us to
take hold of the bride or the lines and
teach the horse he must stand. A horse
that will not stand when he has been
quietly stopped is not of much value
to the owner. Firmness does not mean
you are to start the horse with lash
of the whip or slap OF the lines. nor
does it mean that you are to stop him
with jerk. FirmneSs does mean you
have asked him to do nothing that he
cannot do, therefore you require him
to do it.

Pumpkins For Cows and Hoqs,


Pumpkins have been in use for feed
ing cattle and hogs for many years and
are valued very highly i'll some COM
munities. They are especially valu-
able for starting hogs on ration of
corn in the fall or for feeding sows
and pigs. The seeds are very rich in
protein and also act as a vermifuge.
clearing animals of worms and putting
the digestive organs in excellent con-
dition.
Experiments have shown that 1t is
as good to feed pumpkins raw as
cooked, or better The character of
the pumpkin is such that it must be
considered as roughage rather than
as concentrate. This is shown in the
case of hogs by a trial at the New
Hampshire experiment station where
two lots of shotes were fed raw pump
kins. one lot receiving in addition
milk and the other milk and cornmeal.
The first lot made u daily gain per pig
of LIP pounds, while the lated made
gain of 2.26 pounds.-F. q, King, lndi-
ana Experiment Station.

In choosing our breeding stock the
factor of proliticness should receive
considerable attention. Select the
breeding stock from large filters. New
err select an animal for breeding pur-
poses, no matter how good an individ-
ual it may be. If 1t comes from litter
numbering only two or three. 1t will
be more profitable to select an animal
somewhat inferior in certain individual
points, but which Is known to be from
prolific strain. The word prolific
does not only mean large number OF
pigs in a litter, but 1t also refers to
the regularity of breeding. A SOW may
have ten or twelve pigs at litter, but
may breed only once year. Another
SOW may have seven or eight pigs at
a litter and breed twice a year. With
one SOW we would raise ten or twelve
pigs during the year. while with the
other we should raise fourteen or six
teen. 1t is easy to tell which would
be the more profitable. When properly
handled and cared for. sows should
produce two filters each year. A SOW
that will produce only one litter each
year should be discarded from the
breeding herd and replaced by one that
will do better.-Farm and Fireside.

ShetIands Are Easily Raised and Find

Our Oregon farm. known as Pleasant

age 100 head of Shetland ponies the
year around. and it has never cost over
$500 year to keep the entire herd
writes g.. q. Phillips IN Farm and
t'ireside
One can get ponies pastured by the
head for about the same as sheep-1O
cents per week. So II one were to
hire the pasture by the week for thirty
weeks it would cost only So. Then 1t
is best to keep them up in the stable
during the winter months and feed
each one a pint of grain twice a day
With oats at 35 cents q bushel, the to-
tai expense would not run over IS or
ST per head for the entire year. Thus
1t will be seen that Shetland ponies are

have the advantage of most other
breeds Of stock. for they will do well
on either mountain rocks and rills or
swampy lowlands. where it is not safe
or profitable to turn other stock. As
long as there is plenty of grass of any
kind 1t matters not the condition OF
the ground to them. They will stand

nestle live stock. Horses depreciate
in value about the time they get to be
nine or ten years old. 1t Is the same
with other live stock But a Shetland
pony Is just as valuable for a child's
pony in the interim between twelve
and twenty years of age as at any
earlier period. AS for breeding pur-
poses mare Is just as good between
the ages of ten and twenty years as
previous to her tenth year.
There seems to be no danger Of the
business of raising Shetland ponies be
ing oVerdone. for there are less than
10000 registered Shetlands In Ameri
ca today.
The price of Shetlands has nearly
doubled In the last four years. and
some Of our largest and best posted
breeders predict that they will double
In price again in the next FIVE years.
Breeders of Shetland ponies have a
great advantage over those who raise
other breeds of horses. for they can be
toid so young and can be shipped from
one part Of the country to the other at
80 little expense. A Shetland of 500

We wonder many times how much
the farmers realize and appreciate the
fact that good COW Is the most won
derful producer of food on earth. A
Holstein COW at the Agricultural col
lege Of Nebraska produced in one year
1880 pounds of milk, which contain
ed 1871 per cent of solids, or total of
2.5O3 pounds of nutriment for the sup
port of life. equal In every way to the
finest beef. Think of steer produc-
ing in one year that amount of flesh

duced ten times the food equivalents
of first class steer. AS the boys say.

Mares or Geidinqs2

The man who keeps geldings or
mules for his farm work secures only
their labor in return. while the man
who keeps draft mares receives not
only their labor, but in addition to this
their colts. 1t is true that somewhat
more team force must be kept where
the work is done by mares than where
the work is done entirely by geldings
but when we consider that three mares
can be counted upon to do as much as
any team of geldings of equal weight
and strength. that the difference In
feed cost will not exceed SGD per year
and that the three mares can he count
ed upon to produce in addition to their
labor at least two colts that are worth
500 each as yearlings it Is apparent
that the mares are the more profitable.

extent of eight or ten pounds daily per
head without experiencing the injuri-
.ous effects that sometimes attend a
longer period of such heavy feeding.
Cottonseed hulls make good rough
age to use with it. and corn in addi-
ton adds to the rapidity of gains.
A product known as cold pressed cot
tonseed cake or caddo cake is made
from the crushed seed uncooked and
without removing the bulls. This is
more bulky and coarser than cotton
seed meal. and it is claimed that the
preparation without heating leaves it
more digestible. 1t may be fed heav-
lily with comparative safety and pro-
duces larger gains than its compost
ton would lead one to expect. To get
the largest gains with any feed de-
rived from cotton seed it is necessary
to feed corn in addition.

COTTON SEED FOR
FATTENING CATTLE,

Cotton seed may be fed to steers with
good results. although the usual prac-
tice now is to feed the cottonseed meal
remaining after the Oil has been ex-
tracted in the mills. says the Breeders
Gazette. The cotton seed has a pro-
nounced laxative effect If fed heavily.
This may be overcome In part by cook
ing the seed. In any event. the best
results are obtained by feeding not
over six pounds of seed daily per head
with a heavy feed of corn or Kaffir
corn.
In some tests cotton seed has given
better results than cottonseed meal,
but in more instances the reverse is
true. In some Mississippi tests it was
found that one pound of cottonseed
meal was equal to 1.6 pounds of cot
ton seed or 10 pounds of corn, while
one pound of cotton seed equaled 1.2
pounds of corn. Where it is desired
to make Il large use of cottonseed meal
1t may be fed for ninety days to the

CHARCOAL FOR HOGS.

After it has started to burn
rake the cobs that are dampest
