GLEANINGs FROM FEED LOT
Oats Are Much Better for Horse on
Account Of Flesh Forming EIe-
ments-Astudy Economy.

a
Glover is a very valuable feeding
crop because it contains so much of
the element Of protein, which is the
element in feeding crops which costs
the most.
Oats contains the greater proper
tions Of flesh forming elements and
corn the greater proportion Of fat
forming elements, and this is why
oats are much better food for the
horse.
Big problem whether to run in debt
for feed or not. AS rule the nearer
man can keep out Of debt the better.
But 1t never will pay to let the COWS
60 out poor. Can't you economic
somewhere else so that buying feed
will not really pinch you? Try it.
Study economy, but don't let it be
where economy is extravaganza.
One of our neighbors thought it
hard luck when one of his best cows
died in the spring of the year. just
after her calf was born: but it wasn't
hard luck at all; it was just careless
ness in watering and feeding. Feed
| light for the first few days and give
only water that has had the chill Ia
ken off.
Keep the stock in out of the raw
wind these days. It cuts so. 1t will
cut the best feed you can give your
cattle right in two in the middle. You
can't afford that. Costs too much.
The better food you feed the more
careful you should be of the manure
There is more profit in growing an
animal than in fattening one already
grown.
Profitable feeding consists in Civ
ing an animal all that it will eat and
digest properly.
II stock is to be kept growing it is
necessary that they be fed well, but
avoid waste. To do this, give them all
they will eat upfclean, but no more.
Good feeding has much to do with
early maturity. but the foundations
for it lie in the breed. Start right and
all the rest is easy, including the So
luton of the question of profit
Feed regularly. Stock soon becomes
accustomed to feeding at a regular
time and if they fail to receive their
food at that time they become rest
less and uneasy.

INTENSE CULTURE is NEEDED
Make Distinction Between Exhaustive
Farming and That System That
Leaves Soil Unimpaired.
(By J. n. KELLY.)

10y d. IN. y
To the Editor: By intense farming
we mean the putting of the soil in
the most perfect condition for grow
ing crops, giving it the proper manure
in the proper proportions for develop
ment of the desired crop.
The cost of fitting the ground for
the first crop may be so great that it
will not pay the first year. but if we
take it through series of years it
certainly will pay.
We must make a distinction be-
tween the exhaustive farming and
that system which leaves the soil in a
better and more improved condition
for the production of crops.
BY intense farming is meant by re
turning to the soil all the ingredients
which we take from it; and by under
draining, blowing and pulverizing the
soil we obtain large crops.
The most successful farmer of the
best knack of making and saving the
most manure in proportion to the
amount of stock he keeps.
High wages. high taxes and high
priced land necessitates intense farm
ing, the growing of largs crops every
year on all portions of the farm.
We are decidedly in favor OF in
tense farming whereby the farmer ap-
plies his manures and fertilizers and
prepares his soil with the same pre-
ception as the chemist has when he
mixes the ingredients.
