Easterly, Kuhn and Sullivan.
Why all this knocking of the Cubs?
Don't you know "nothin'?"
AS usual, scooping the other EEK
perts," we have discovered the Cubs
are an evenly balanced team. We did
all this without lingering evidence or
any other technical assistance. We
merely looked at the league stand
ing. and there we lamped that the
Cubs had won 15 games and lost the
same number. Could anything be
more even? .,.
In their last three games the Cubs
have made "a hits. They haven't won
one of the battles. For the simple
reason that the opposing squads, the
Giants in one game and the PhiIies
in two, have rolled up over 40 clouts.
There is no dope. Explanations are
unnecessary. It is plain to the VerieSt
boob that EEers' pitching staff, So
called because such force is a nee
essary department of ball team, is
rank. Even Larry Cheney slipped in
the last game with the Giants, and
Lavender, Overall and Toney have
been of use only to the Eastern bat
tiers, who are fattening their sticking
averages.
The worst of the situation is that
there is no hope in sight. Good pitch
ers are not lying around lose, and
even if President Murphy is willing
to separate himself from a large
bunch of coin, he cannot buy any,
thing for it. If there is any improve
ment in the tWirling, it must come
from the men already on the pay
roll.
Cheney, of course, is a good pitch
er, liable to have his bad days, but
able to win a majority Of his games.
Overall is an experiment. His task
of coming back is hard one, and so
far he has shown no great promise.
Toney is almost a green pitcher,
though he has been in the big league

LITTLE LIFTS FOR
PRACTICAL FARMER
Few Excellent Hints That viii
Prove of Value in Many Diff
ferent Places.

Barley straw has the reputation OF
breeding lice on the cattle; 1t is also
supposed that white cattle are more
subject to insect attacks than those
of the darker shades
The Collie is the best known Of all
sheen dogs. There is a great diff
ference between the working dog and
the show Collie, which has been bred
so much for the fancy points that
it is of but little service in the exact
ing duties which the sheep dog IS
called upon to perform.
The mangeI is more nutritiye as
stock food than the turnip; weight
for weight. it contains more dry mat
ter and a higher percentage of sugar.
It is well recognized principle
that all grain crops thrive best in a
fine. thoroughly worked seed bed IN
derlaid by a solid substratum.
In the ash of bran there is large
proportion of phosphates, much larger
than in the ash of barley OF oats.
Carrots are not excelled as food
for the horses. They are particularly
refreshing given to hunter after a
hard day over rough country or to a
work horse. They are usually fed
raw or sliced.
Milk intended to be sent to the
factories should be cooled as rapidly
as possible to a temperature of about
so degrees F. The sooner and more
thoroughly milk is cooled the longer
and better it will keep.
HaIf-ripened cream churns very
sIowly-in other words, the butter
from it is a long time coming and the
weld is not so good as from the
properly ripened article.
The bacteria or organisms which
cause the souring of cream are most
active at temperatures ranging from
so to 100 degrees F. When the tenn
Derature falls much below so degrees

500 words of news This is "fringed''

It requires intelligent management
to keep all hands busy during the hay
harvest without allowing them to be
idle at any time and without sub
jecting any of the hay to unnecessary
exposure.
Unlike other farm operations, hay
making cannot be followed along def
initeIy laid-out plans.
Weather is the great controlling
factor in hay-naking. Hay will not
dry in a specified time even without
rain A cool day will not allow hay
to dry half as fast as the next day
with a warm wind blowing.
Dry ground is a great aid in drying
moisture from green hay above it,
but if we wait for the dry ground
we are apt to be caught by the next
storm.
Ordinarily we must begin cutting
as soon as one storm has cleared W
and we see indications of fair wealth
er.
Every precaution should be used
to prevent undue exposure of the hay
to dry weather.
The hay tedder hastens the drying
to a marvellous degree, especially il
the hay has already been caught by
the rain in the swath and hay that
is heavy and green. A hay teddeT
will soon pay for itself if rightly used
The side delivery rake is another
valuable implement for stirring the
hay as well as gathering it in open
windrows in which the drying may
go on without causing the leaves tC
become brittle and fall off Unless
allowed to become too dry, they draw
large quantities of moisture from the
stems, beside they are the most val
liable part of the hay and must &C

fore in our national life.
Let US consider these facts which
have been. extracted from a recent
number of the Crop Reporter, that
publication Of much esoteric interest,
issued by authority Of the secretary
of agriculture: On January 1, 1913,
the total number of horses on farms
and ranges in the United States was
90, 567 600. valued at S110.77 per head,
with an aggregate value of $2,27S, 222,-

horses had increased $4,000; mules
increased 24,000; mich COWS decreased
202 coo; other cattle decreased $780,
Geo; sheep decreased $4,000; swine
decreased 1892, 00O.
Without pausing here to discuss
what bearing this decrease during the
year 1912, in the numbers of cattle,
sheep, and swine, may have On the
future of these useful quadrupeds, we
will just say that so far as is indicated
by those impartial records-the Unit
ed States census reports neither the
horse, the mule, the ass, nor the burro
