three generations to get them where
they ought to be for the real results
to be apparent.
If we want to raise really good
horses we will have to stop the prac-
tice of "roughing" the yearling and
the two-year-old colt through the win
ter and letting them depend entirely
upon pasturage through the summer.
These two years are the most critical
period in the growth and general de-
velopment OF the colt.

growth during the first twelve
months of his life. If he fails to do

The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1913-07-04

You and | and everyone who is in
the business of farming and stock
raising keep horses because they are
our source of farm power. They are
the engines that do our work. If we
have understood, scrubby. cat
hammed' animals, the farm power
that does our work is not as heavy
as it should be.
1t is some trouble and it requires
good deal of time to breed and rear
a team Of colts. When we grow a
team of underweight horses we have
wasted time Farm machinery is not
getting any lighter and it takes a
good team Of horses to pull heavy
mower or drill disk or a harrow
all day in the hurry-up season.
We ought to raise big horses. not
the tremendous ton horses" used on
firm streets for draying but animals
able and weighty enough to handle
with ease the heavy machinery that
the agricul;urist must use at this
time. If we are going 10 raise horses
choose between two types in the very
near future. The big demand is going
to be for the massive draft horse or
| for the animal of the army type, says
a writer in the Farm Progress. Light
built gasoline vehicles have eliminat-
ed from the markets many of the in
/ termediate types of horses. The farm
will have to be the main field Of the
horse in the future.
We can raise big horses anywhere
/ tons. One of the things we will be
! forced to do is to look more care
| fully after the feeding of the draft
/ type of colt. Our grains and grasses
/ are just as nourishing as those of
/ any of the great foreign horse-breed-
1 ing sections where the finest types
J of heavy horses are bred and ma
/ tured.
The trouble has been that we have
paid more attention to our horses
after they were three or four years
/ old than we did when they were colts
| have noted that the yearling and
the two-year-old colt is not given very
much attention on the average farm.
The substitution of big horses for
the small animals now found on the
majority of farms cannot be accom-
plished in one year or in ten years
1t will be proposition of changing
the breed, of getting up to the stand
ard of the pure and the nearly pure
bred. There are not enough heavy
mares in most localities to start In
making the change Even this part
of the change will have to be worked
out slowly by the breeding of oul
mediocre mares to draft stations

Rerimfnts on alternating animals, has
come to the conclusion that sleep Is
fue to antitoXin or poisoning by GER

according to which the neutrones or

but there are objections to these
Rheories, and all others that have been
Rcvanced 1t is a matter of absolute
knowledge that in sleep there is a

for an hour twice a day when the for
age is free from rain for the first few
days until they get accustomed to it.

in shape to raise vigorous lambs.

much hay as they will eat up clean, is

When the lambs are less than a
week old they will begin to eat little
grain. The ewes must then be fed
more literally. ] generally have a
place where the lambs can be fed by
themselves and then give them ground

AID FOR RURAL SCHOOLS.
Governor Tells Teachers Country Chill
dren Should Be Considered.

Annapolis - Declaring the rural
school the foundation of the republic
and the question of better provisions
for Maryland's rural schools as the
greatest problem before Maryland
teachers today, Governor Goldsbor-
ough enthused the State Teachers AS
ISOLATION by his address in St. Johns
College gymnasium. He was given
rising vote of thanks and a loud cheer.
Beginning with a description of
what he considered the duty of the
state toward the children, Governor
Goldsborough read from the address
Of DR. Huxley on the occasion of the
dedication OF Johns Hopkins Uniyer.
, sity, in 1876, to SHOW what real educa.
/ ton.
1T is my Judgment that in the cities
and towns of the State, the schools
are very well managed But how
about the sadly neglected rural
schools in many of our counties? This
is the supreme question of the hour,
as l take it. After ALL the country
district school is the foundation of the
republic, and when we fail to respond
, TO the call of better equipped teachers
and more modern school houses in the
rural communities We fail in great
public duty.
THE cry that the children in the
country districts are entitled to just
as competent instructors and just as
well lighted and heated buildings as
are the children of the cities and
towns is a righteous cry, and this de-
mand must he met if We would heed
the call of progress and Justice

ucation and Maryland should not fall
behind her sister States in this great
race to educate all of her children.
We are rich in history. rich in re-
sources, and We can. if we will. place
our State in the forefront OF this ire
mendously important question
Il am not here to point out where
the trouble lies, nor to find fault but ]
think every fair-minded man and
woman will agree with me that we
need very much more money for edu-
cational purposes, and this will mean
higher salaried teachers and a better
standard OF efficiency and more habi.
table school houses More money for
educational purposes should appeal
not only 10 the richer counties of the
State, but the distribution of school
funds should be so made that in those
counties where the taxable basis is
small sufficient funds would be fur
nished by the State TO put the schools
on an equal footing with those in the
richer counties.
DR.. A. Duncan Yocum, of the Uni
yersity of Pennsylvania, followed the
Governors talk with an arraignment
of what he described as ineXact edu-
cational methods. He declared it his
belief that the two adages, You can
drive a horse to water, but YOU can't
make him drink" and "A good teacher
can teach child, but she cant give
him brains, were false. The very
thing the teacher must 90, he de-
clared. was TO make the stupid child
bright and TO make the backward pu'
pill do what he won't do.
