GETTING THE cows
OUT TO PASTURES
There Are Cases Where 1t Is Ad-
visabIe to Keep Up Grain
After Pastures Are Open.

What relief it is to have the COWS
out to pasture and not be compelled
to feed grain! There are cases, how.
ever, where it is a good plan to keep
up the feed ration for a few weeks
after the cows go to grass.
Take it where cows are thin in flesh
when they are turned away. For some
time they will use everything they can
eat, nearly, for building up their own
bodies. Precious little left for you
till the cows get in average flesh.
While they are doing this, better feed
some grain and hurry the matter on.
The best way, of course, is to keep the
COWS from running down that way in
the first place; but we do not always
do as we should. Would it not be fine
If We did?
A rusty milk can is a nuisance.
Some cities will not accept milk which
has been brought in in one of them.
Good thing, too. No amount of scrub
bling can ever make rusty spot in
tin perfectly sweet and clean. New
cans are the thing.

TOAD A VALUABLE SERVANT
lts Uses in the World Have Not Been
Accorded the Recognition II Has
Long Deserved.

Few well-meaning creatures have
been more thoroughly misunderstood
than the homely, meditative and re
firing toad.
Formerly the toad was considered a
venomous reptile, but In our day it's
habits have been more carefully OBJ
served and its great value to the
promologist and gardener has been
fully established on account of its
propensity for destroying insects.
We should, therefore, cultivate the
friendship and assistance of the in
sectivorous reptiles, including the
striped snake, as well as that of
birds.
Every tidy housewife detests the
cockroach, mice and other vermin.
Two or three domesticated toads
and would keep the coast clear of
these and would be found more desir-
able than a cat. as they are wholly
free from trespassing on the rights OF
man as does the cat. The toad is pos
sessed of timid and retiring nature,
loving dark corners and shady places,
but under kind treatment becoming
| quite tame.
Many instances might be cited of
pet toads remaining several years in
family and doing most valuable
service with no other compensation
than that of immunity from persecu'
ton.
In Europe toads are carried to the
cities to market and are purchased by
the horticulturists, who by their aid
are enabled to keep in check the null
duplication of the insect tribes which
prey upon their fruits, flowers, etc.

We are now in the midst of spring

sist in feeding and watering regularly,
although these are the main essen
tails, and without good feed and an
abundance of pure drinking water, the
stock cannot remain in a thrifty con-
dition.
The question of exercise is a most
important one and one that should
never be neglected l think it a good
plan to turn out all of the work horses

suffer from attacks of Indigestion, and
any of the older stock are very liable
to stock up from the want of exercise.
Then again all of them will be more
subject to colds than where they are
turned out to run around and play in
the farm yard.
Last winter the writer had a man
renting land from him. This man had
handled farm teams in many of the
Northern and Western states, espe-
cially in Montana, Idaho, Washington,
also Minnesota: In all of these states
he had used teams on the road and on
the farm. Moving to Virginia in the
month of December, he bought four
head OF horses in the city of Rich
mond, and bringing them down on the
farm put them in a rather open barn,
and kept stable blankets on them at
night, and in fact all the time that
they stood in the barn. But he did
not keep them in the barn in the day
time, unless it was raining or showing,
for on all fairly bright days, never
mind how cold, the horses were turned
out, the blankets taken off. One of
these horses had just been clipped.

three that had their regular coats of

PRACTICAL HINTS
FOR HOG BREEDER
Field of Winter Rye Upon Which
Animals May Be Turned in
Spring Is Great Aid.
(By w. NJ. KELLY

A few years of actual experience in
the business of breeding swine has
convinced me of the falsity of many
Of the theories concerning breeding
and growing swine.
A field of winter rye upon which
the hogs may be turned early in the
spring and on which they may feed
while the other forage crops are being
sown and started will help out won
derfully in the amount of grain food
required to keep them in a good,
thrifty condition.
When turned on to any green feed
for the first time one hour each day
until they have become accustomed to
the change will be better for the hogs
than to allow them to make too rad
zeal change of diet.
The man that has hogs and knows
how to keep them, has what is better
than a gold mine these days.
Get the kind of hogs you like to see
around you best. They will do the
best for you, because you will do the
DeSC Dy them.
Hogs like charcoal, especially in
winter. 1t does them lots of good;
corrects the tendency to stomach and
bowel troubles.
The best hog is not the one that
has the longest legs. That kind will
run off more flesh than you can put
on. Length of body beats long legs
all hollow.
Don't be in too big hurry when you
feed. Stop and watch the pigs and
hogs eat You can tell in that way
whether they are well and hearty or
not.
Have you a good many small pota-
toes? They are fine for hogs when
boiled soft and mashed. The hogs
relish them and they are rich in pork
making material.

big strong horses running around and
playing like so many colts, and even
rolling over in the snow, for we do
have snow occasionally in "Ole Vir.
ginny." Now the writer does not re.
member ever seeing one of these
horses with q cold or even a cough,
all during the time they were on this
Virginia farm.
OF course / am we'll aware that the
climate in the North and West is
much colder than that of Virginia,
but where teams are accustomed to
the winters of these other states, they
can be turned out with impunity,
should think, and without any fear of
injuring them.
In connection with the idea of
horses being turned out for exercise in
the winter season, the writer calls to
mind a paragraph that he recently
read which stated that Secretary Will
son, has been wintering herd of
horses out of doors, for the past
20 years, on his Iowa farm. These
horses have access to a shed that they
could find protection from the cold
blasts, but it is said that they sought
protection in a wooded ravine and
would not go into the shed, even in
the worst weather This herd Of
horses enjoy the best of health, and
they, being put In pasture when be-
tween one and two years old, are kept
there until they are taken out to be
broken and Sold
Here is a practical illustration of
the cold weather that horses will
stand and thrive in, if they are turned
loose, so that they can get the amount
of exercise that they stand in need of.
Too many stations are pampered,
and at the same time injured by
keeping them shut up in close stalls,
when they should have the run of the
paddock every good day during the
winter.
Just remember that it is almost i'm
possible to hurt a horse of any class,
or of any breed, by turning him out
and letting him keep warm by NOV
ing around in the paddock field or
pasture lot.
This same simple rule will apply
equally well to brood mares and colts

How to Apply Water.

In dry time plants must either be

to feed nearer the surface and they

city that he made his first race fol

he went to Tampa where he engaged
in the practice of law and remained
until the early part of the present
winter, when he moved to Gainesville
a city in which he lived ever before
coming to Palatka. In all parts OF
Florida Judge Davis is familiarly anc

ceilings are high, the rooms large and

This part of East Palatka, with a
