PEELED TO resort to the use of horse
meat as the French. Mr.. Taylor gives
vent to the following; because of the
decline in beef cattle production, the
French and Germans were compelled
to fall back on horse meat several
years ago. The American people will
have to do the same unless immediate
steps are taken to populate our West
ern ranges with cattle. The supply
right now is far below the demand,
and conditions are getting worse
daily.

Dry weather has interfered very ma

as is to be expected, but most of this

The percentage o. ducks is IS per cent,

In this report the Department has
undertaken to fad out the percentage
of cattle as compared with the usual
year that are going into lots this sea
son. The dry pastures, scarcity of wat
err and scarcity of feed would necess-
arily cut down the number of stock
kept for the winter. Indications are
that there are only Y per cent of cat

marked decline from an average year
as indicated by Il per cent.
There is practically a unanimous COM
plant from all sections of the State as
to the scarcity of water, shortness CT
grass and lack of feed.
Farmers are urged to sow cover crops
particularly rye, barley and hairy vetch,
for winter pasture in order to save feed
bills. Those farmers who have siIos
have been exceedingly fortunate in be-
ing able to save much fodder where the
ears of corn failed to materlize. 1t is
hard to find ray of sunshine in such
bad crop year as this season has proven
to be. However, if our farmers take
advantage of the lesson thai this has
taught, it may prove to be a blessing
! in disguise. If this drouth only teaches
the farmer the value of silo and the
value of cover crops for winter, Ken
lucky may yet be richer as a result of
the drouth. ]. w. Newman,

How Clouds and Foos p,tter.

Clouds are bodies of moisture evap. orated from the earth and again par. italy condensed in the upper regions of the air Fcgs differ from clouds only in one respect-they come in con tact with the surface of the earth. while clouds are elevated above our heads. When the surface of the earth is warmer than the lower air the vapor of the earth. being condensed by the chill air. becomes mist or fog. But when the lower air is warmer than the earth the vapor rises through the air and becomes cloud. Fog and mist differ in this respect-that mist is a fine rain, while fog is vapor not suf- ficiently condensed to allow of its pre- cipitation in drops.
