The sheep tick is one of the worst

accomplished slowly, silently and con.
tinuously. For this reason the dam.

GOOD DEMAND FOR
HIGH-CLASS HORSES
InSistent Call for Draft Animals
Cannot Be Suppied-Mare
Is Profitable.
CBy II. @. GARDNER1

There is an insistent market demand
for high-class horses, especially for
draft horses, that cannot be supplied
On the other hand, the country is
Hooded with common ordinary plug"
horses. They do not fill any particular
requirement or demand, hence the
very low and profit-killing prices for
which they must sell. This insistent
demand for high-class draft borses
does not come from the market alone
There also comes a demand from the
farm, for this is a day OF heavy ma.
chinery, demanding and Increased
amount OF motive power Experience
has proven that the most satisfactory
and economical form of motive nower
on the average farm is the heavy
sound draft mare. Besides doing most
OF the farm work she will raise n
valuable colt each year, IL properIv
handled. Thus she is constantly nro-
ducing profit other than by means NJ
the work she does. The gelding or
mule will not do this and in tbe.a
days of high-priced lands, feeds and
labor this proposition Is WORTHY q,
careful consideration.

CASH IN EARLY VEGETABLES

For those who live close to a vii
lage or small city the early vegetable
catches the dimes and dollars. Even
though there are many gardens in
town, there are a great many who
prefer to buy their vegetables. In

says a contributor to the Farm and
Home.
The great thing In gardening is to
nave the vegetables ready a week or
two before the other fellow. You
not only get the advantage of high
prices at the first of the season, but
when once a customer, if your goods
are X, you can hold them through
out the season.
A quarter OF an acre is large
enough to begin with. This amount,
II worked intelligently, will produce
an astonishing amount of truck"

MARKETING HAY CROP
One of Leading Industries in
Many Parts of Country.
Much Difference in Demands of Indi-
vidual Markets-Certain Practices
In Baiing and Marketing
Should Be Corrected.
(By H. B. MCLURE)

AS separate industry, growing an,
marketing of hay in the United State
Is comparatively new.
Prior to 1870 marketing was a sim
pie matter, and was carried on in {
somewhat haphazard manner Little
hay was shipped more than 20 or 81
miles. In many instances the pro
Queer sold his product directly to the
consumer. and there was little need
for standard grades or bales or for
other trade rules.
The growing of hay for the market
has now become one of the leading
industries in many parts of the coun-
try. 1t is estimated that about % per
cent. OF the 1912 hay crop, or over
100000 tons, was removed from the
farms
There is considerable difference in
the demands of the individual markets
in the various sections of the country
In regard to the size and weights OF
the bale and the kind and grade of hay
which brings the best price. Certain
practices in baling and marketing
cause loss to the producer, which
could be avoided if a proper adher-
ence to the requirements of the mar
ket to which the hay is shipped were
observed
How to dispose of low grade hay is
vital problem with every one who
handles this class of hay, and every
dealer has more or less of it: usually
more low grade hay than any other
kind. The shippers, receivers. and
dealers can help much in solving this
perplexing problem. The country
buyer and shipper especially can help
materially, and should use every fair
means in his power to lessen the
trouble caused by low grade hay. The |
first step in the right direction is for |
grades of hay. 1t is just as important
for him as it is for the city buyer TO
know the grades.
II hay sells by grade in the country
the man who has the poorest product
VIII receive less than he does now. At
present the man who has choice hay
receives less than it is worth on the
- al net, anu part VI the prOQL winch
the shipper makes on the good hay
must go to make up for the loss on
the poor hay.
With the present system of buying
hay there is not enough difference in
the price paid for the better grades in
the country as compared with the
price paid for the lower grades.
Therefore, if the man who has No. 2
hay receives within so or rs cents of
the price of his neighbaor's choice hay
he is satisfied and thinks that it is not
necessary to take the precautions that
his neighbor did in order to get a
slight advance.
Standard grades of timothy, clover.
prairie hay, straw, mixed hay. and
alfalfa have been adopted in the most
of the important markets, and it is of
vital importance to the producer to
know and meet the demands of the
markets to which he ships.

DAIRY
REAR CALVES ON SKIM MILK
Production Of Cheap Feeders by Pail
Method Has Become Important
Question With Many.

There has grown up a necessity for
the application of economic methods
In beer production. Though feeders
may be produced from cows with
calves at the side on large areas Of
cheap grazing land. II is doubtful
whether this method can be success
fully employed on the average farm
operated under an intensive system.
In this case more revenue must be
secured from a COW during the year
than that produced in the feeder
steer or heifer receiving the entire
product OF the mother rearing It.
II is true that the pedigreed ami.
mails. especially OF the beef classes
reared for sale. for breeding or for
show purposes. can be prohtably
sucked by their dams because OF the
higher price they bring. The rearing
OF cheap feeders by the pail method
mas become an important question
with the beef producers
Dairymen OF necessity, have long
practiced rearing calves on skim milk.
supplemented by grain. hay, silage.
etc. and some have even dispensed
with skim-milk feeding In quite a
large measure.
AS general thing the pail-fed calf
suffers from neglect and want OF sui
hcient feed OF the proper character.

Dish or trash, such as large dry weeds,
Sucks, etc, that will interfere with
cultivation or which will cause the
soil to lose moisture.
The spot selected should be top
dressed with well rotted stable ma
nure or that from the pigpen or poul-
try house. Use all of these; there is
no danger Of getting the soil too rich.
But be sure and get the manure we'll
mixed with the soil. After blowing
and narrowing the piece of ground,
scatter 125 pounds of high-grade COM
mercial fertilizer over it and work 1t
in three or four inches with cult

can before planting. 1t matters not
how rich the garden it, the fertilizer

also start and help to keep up a rank

VARIOUS FEEDS FOR HORSES
Roughages in Determining on
Economical Rations.

The problem of feeding work horses
Is one involving the economical pro-
duction of energy and maintenance of
health. 1t is of considerable impor1
lance to know how much hay and how
much grain a farm horse at hard labor
should receive in order that he may
work with the greatest efficiency and
economy. With high priced grains it
is very desirable to know the relative
value of different roughages in order
that economy may be practiced in
making up ration for work horses.
In order to determine some OF these
points number of experiments have
been conducted at the Illinois station.
ten teams being used in the tests, with
the following results:
But little difference was observed in
the value of clover and timothy hay
when fed in conjunction with corn,
oats, oil meal and wheat bran, the
difference being slightly in favor of
clover.
The results show a slight saving due
to mixing ground grain with chaffed
clover hay. but not sufficient to justify
the expense.
Horses fed alfalfa and timothy ate |
less grain and hay and gained slightly |
more in weight than those fed clover
and timothy while doing the same
amount of labor. |
Twenty to twenty-five per cent. less
grain was required to maintain the

weight OF horses fed alfalfa than those
fed timothy hay.
Horses fed corn and alfalfa ate %
per cent. less grain than those fed the
mixed ration, and lost 6 pounds more
In weight per head in eight weeks.
The ration OF corn and alfalfa cost s
cents less per horse per day than the
mixed ration.
Horses fed ground corn and oats
with wheat bran. oil meal. timothy and
alfalfa hay consumed per cent. less
feed and gained pounds more in
weight per head in sir weeks than
those fed whole corn and oats with a
similar ration.
Farm work horses at hard labor
should receive from 1 1-5 to 1 1-3
pounds of grain, and from 1 to IL
pounds of hay per 100 pounds of live
weight per day, in order that their
weight may be maintained.
