Farm Power.
By L. w. CHASE,
(From Idaho Country Life)

tF'rom Idaho Country Life)
Men who are driven will sulk, will
complain and finally strike, but few
will ever overwork. A horse will work
on, no matter how much he is required
to do and no matter how badly he is
crippled up. A steam engine is like
horse-it can be overworked to its det-
riment-and if it gets out of order it
will run on just the same until it is
practically ruined. A gasoline engine
is like a man-if it is overtaxed it
quits, and if it is out of order it will
not run. 1t is like man in another
respect. 1t is always ready to start,
does not have to be driven in from
the pasture; neither does an hours
time need to be wasted to get its
motive power in the proper condition
to use. Furthermore, it is not danger
Gus when handled either by experts or
novices. 1t will not run away, it will
not kick, nor will it explode its boiler.
Men have been known to say that
horse labor is cheap, and some men
believe it is. But can they prove it?
Transfer companies in the prairie
states make the claim that it costs SIPS
per year to feed a horse. Of course
these horses are all work horses, and
most of the time they work. The Min
nesota experiment station has proven
that it costs approximately $50 to
maintain farm horse for year, and

Apple Receipts.
EDNA E. LARSEN, '13, D. S. Editor.
(From Idaho Country Life

Miss Breese and six young women
of the University of Idaho attended
the National Apple Show at Spokane
to demonstrate the approved methods
of cooking the apple, king of fruits.
Besides showing how to bake delicious
apple pies and the familiar apple
dumping, they made soufles, custards
and fritters.
The recipes follow They were used
in classroom work as well as in the
demonstrations:
APPLE SOUFFLE.
Pare, core and cook four tart apples
in just enough water to prevent burn
ing. Pass through sieve, sweeten to
taste and add t. of lemon extract. Sift
together level T of corn starch and |
level T of flour. Dissolve in l T of cold
water. Melt l T of butter and add l
t salt. Pour in | cup boiling water
Add flour and corn starch mixture and
cook until clear. Add apple pulp, re-
move from fire and stir thoroughly
Beat eggs separately. Add first the
yolks to the apple mixture and lastly
the whites of the eggs. Pour into
shallow baking dish and bake in a
moderately hot oven until pulled up
and brown Serve at once.
APPLE CUsTARD.
Beat the yolks of eggs light and
add IL cup. Of sugar. Cook for one
or two minutes and remove from fire
and gradually add one pint of grated
apple. Pour into serving dish and
cover with the we'll beaten whites of
four eggs and T of powdered sugar.
Place in oven to brown.
APPLE FRITTERs.
Batter-Yolks of 2 eggs, we'll beaten.
Add one-half cup milk, | t of melted
butter or olive oil, / ssp. salt, l cup
flour. Sift the salt and -four together.
Add milk to the we'll beaten yolks and
add this gradually to the flour. Beat
until smooth and add butter or olive
oil. When ready add the we'll beaten
whites of two eggs.
Use the above batter for the follow
ing fritters:
I. Wipe, core, pare and cut sour
apples into Fights; then slice the
eighths and stir into batter. Drop by
spoonfuls into hot, deep fat, and fry
until decidedly brown. Drain on
brown paper and sprinkle with powd-
cred sugar.
II. Pare and core apples and cut
INTO one-fourth inch slices across the
lpple. Sprinkle with 2 T of lemon juice
md powdered sugar. Drain and dip
he apples into butter and fry in deep
at. Drain on brown paper.
III. Pare and cut the apples into
mall pieces or chop them. Mix into

the horse only returns about three
hours work per day for this, which
makes the cost of his services to the
farmer amount to about eight cents
per hour In addition to this must be
counted the depreciation, interest, and
taxes.
With gasoline at 20 cents per gal
lon, and with very extravagant en-
CINE, it should not cost more than two
and half cents per hour for each
horse power used. The interest, taxes,
and depreciation would be about the
same as for horse when in use, but
when not in use the engine does not
depreciate and the horse does. Again,
when not in use, the engine does not
eat anything, while the horse eats near
ly as much as when in use.
1t is quite difficult to compare the
cost of using the horse with the use
of gasoline engines, as neither one is
ever used all the time, but it may be
of interest to make an attempt at the
exact figures.
WHAT The TAXES SHOW.
The department of agricultural en-
gineering at the University of Ne
braska has made tests of pumping with
3-horse power gasoline engine and
found that it takes one gallon of gaso-
line to pump 2,454.5 gallons of water
from a we'll 43 feet to water, and that
one gallon of gasoline will pump l ,720
gallons of water from we'll 150 feet
to water A gallon of gasoline should
pump sufficient water from we'll 43
feet deep to supply 800 head of cattle
"a hours, and it should pump suffic-
lent water from we'll 100 feet deep
to supply us head of cattle "a hours.
The same engine referred to above
shelled % bushels of corn in 20 min
utes and used los part of a gallon of
gasoline This shows that one gallon
of gasoline will shell 264 bushels Of
corn.
The men, in making this test, did not
stop with Smelling the corn, but kept on
and ran the corn through feed grind
er at the rate of 20 IL bushels an hour
and found that gallon of gasoline
would grind 486 bushels of corn suf-
hcently fine for good feed.
These same men found that it took
.O8o3 gallons of gasoline to run the
engine empty for one hour, or .0O148o
of a gallon to run the engine one min
ute. 1t takes about one minute to
separate one cows milk, and requires
about lis horse power to run the sep
arator. To do one horse powers work
for ten hours, small gasoline engines
use about gallon of gasolie plus the
amount used to operate the engine.
Computing from this it is found that
it takes about .0OO11 part of gallon
of gasoline to do the work of separat-
ing one cows milk Add this to the
amount of gasoline used (OO1480) to
run the engine one minute, and tile
sum is the amount used COOL $50 gal

Strange as it may seem, it shoulc
take only about .32 of gallon of gaso-
line to separate the milk from 100
cows for "a hours, which at 20 cents
per gallon would cost only GA cents.
1t takes about lis horse power to
run common hand grindstone, which
means that it takes .958 part of cent
to grind sickle If it takes 80 min
utes to grind a sickle, and farm help
now costs approximately Is cents per
hour, it costs IFS cents for a MIN to
turn the grindstone while the sickle is
being ground.
OTHER WORK FOR THE ENGINE.
Saving woman's labor on a farm
is an item which should not be over
In short, the following table shows
about the amount of gasoline required
when using 3-horse power gasoline
engine for the work about the farm.
Some of the figures are from actual
tests and some are computations:
One gallon of gasoline will pump
2,454 gallons Of water from we'll
43 feet deep.
1920 gallons of water from we'll
l59 feet deep.
Will shell

The limit of usefulness of gaso-
line engine on farm depends upon
the ingenuity of the farmer. Besides
the subjects mentioned, it should be
made to cut the ice, put the ice in the
ice house, the hay in the barn, the
corn in the crib, cut the alfalfa, the

MANY FAILURES
But Partisan Sage Overcame Miss
Kruger'S Hair Troubles.

PARTISAN SAGE is not guaranteed

S. L. Willis to stop falling hair, eradi-
cate dandruff and stop itching scalp, or

America by leading druggists for so

farmer. On the whole, it seems that
most farmers are purchasing too small
an engine and overlooking the medium
sizes. A good 4 or 5-horse power
engine will do anything on the farm,
excepting thresh or fill the silo, and
do it as economically as large engine
which would require large force to
keep it supplied with work. This same
engine will do all the small work about
the farm, and requires only a trife
more gasoline for the work than a !
or 2-horse power engine.
With modern machines and a good
gasoline engine farmer should use
his mental ability in such way that he
and his farm hand can do all his work,
and then thereby drop the old time
Smelling bee and threshing day. By
stacking the grain and using small
separator, a farmer can choose his own
time to thresh, and by that means keep
good hand who would otherwise be
lost. This method of doing the work
will also take burden from his wife's
shoulders, because she will not need to
cook for such large number of extra
men as is usual at threshing time.
Whenever farmer gets gasoline en-
CINE he should arrange to do without
an equivalent value of horse flesh or
man labor.
THE GASOLINE TRACTOR.
The matter of substituting traction
engine for horses now depends upon
three things to make it success.
First: The size, arrangement, and
topography of the farm.
Second: The conditions of roads
and bridges leading to town.
Third; A mans ability to handle his
work SO that he can substitute oil and
steel for man and horse.
The farmer who has farm which is
fairly level and laid out in long fields
can plow the fields and seed them with
traction engine cheaper than with
horses.
With large wagons, good roads and
bridges, man can deliver his produce
in town with traction engine as cheap
and probably cheaper than with horses.
A modern farmer must not only be
able to select good seed, SOW it scien-
tifcally, and feed the harvested crop
scientifically, but he must be able to
sow, till, harvest, and handle the crops
economically. To do this he must Be
an engineer as we'll as an agriculturist
in every sense of the word. One of
the greatest losses on the modern farm
today is through poor handling of
labor, machines, horses, and improper
arrangement of buildings. A great
part of these losses is the feeding of
several horses for ten moths in the year
to do few weeks work, and the farm
er must learn to arrange his work to
utilize the services of his horses all the
year around, or he must arrange his
work for the efficient use of gaso-
line engine. The latter appeals to the
writer as a more feasible plan and one
which the best farm management is
slowly but surely adopting.
