The second day of the regimental
inspection by Colonel French that took
place yesterday was not less strenu-
GUS than that of the first, and was of
the same general nature as regards
the problems given out to the corpor-
ais for solution. All of the officers
who have witnessed this work are
most enthusiastic in their views as
regards the value of the method to
promote efficiency in all grades The
methods employed by Colonel French
are entirely new. and while eminently
practical in nature, are quite along
the line of the so-ealled new school
of training, and their ultimate effect
will be to promote the habit OF readi-
ness of command and correct meet
ing of service conditions.

Rearino the Colt.

Through the first winter the wean-
ling colt should have about all the
grain he will clean up. Wherever al
falfa is available. give him the very
best and brightest on the place. There
is no better muscle and bone making
feed. He must have some grain.
Young drafters cannot be properly de-
veloped without it. If stunted or starv-
ed during the first year, no amount of
good feed and care later will make
the animal what he should have been
if properly fed as weanling. The
second year he should go to pasture.
Some grain may be necessary. depend
ing upon the nature and quality Of the
pasture supplied. His feet should be
looked after carefully. as bad faults
may develop If they are allowed to go
uncared for. The heels should be kept

How to Raise Potatoes For Big
Profits.

How to Raise Potatoes For Big
Profits.
The aim in raising potatoes should be
to plant so as to get the biggest yield
and at the same time with the least
expense. One of the farmers in Som
erset county, Me-, who have been able
to do this most successfully is f. E.
Davis. He has received as big a yield
as 500 bushels per acre in some in
stances and on the whole 800 to 500
bushels per acre. He tells his story
how he did it, which many farmers
would do we'll to follow. He writes I'm
the American Cultivator as follows:
The soil must be in the best pos
sible condition as regard filth and fer
tility. The dirt should he made fine
and mellow and the soil of good depth
before planting the seed. If the piece
is of clover sod then the time for plow-
ing does not count so much, yet in
this case an application of small coat
of manure is good and enables us to re-
duce the expense Of commercial ferti-
lizer at least one-half and to further
increase the yield of from fifty to
hundred bushels per acre, yet care
should be taken not to put on too
much manure.
Flowing and planting are only a
small part of the work of raising po-
tatoes. They require considerable
care. If in a dry season they should
be cultivated often, the loose dirt hav-
ing tendency to moisten the plants.

sible crop. 500 bushels or more per
