WAR MAKES DEMAND
FOR BETTER HORSES
Good Mares Used in Farm
Work Should Be Bred to
Good Stations.

During the next decade there prob
ably will be an increased demand for
American horses in the countries now
engaged in the European war. The
demand may even continue much long
er, according to investigators of the
United States department of agrir
culture, as not only will horses be
needed for armies, but when peace Is
restored more will be needed for agri-
culture. Already European agents are
said to be endeavoring to purchase
horses in this country and Canada, and
there is an increased interest in many
sections in horse breeding.
To meet this increased European de-
mand American farmers may well en-
deavor to raise well-bred horses, al
though the department Of agriculture
does not advise them to purchase a
surplus of horses merely for breeding
purposes. 1t merely advises that or
binary farm work should be done
whenever possible by good mares.
which should be bred to good stall
lions. 1t also desires to emphasize
the fact that only horses Of high quail
ity may be profitably raised today.
Inferior horses are a drug on the
market, and their production is to be
discouraged as much as the produc-
ton of good horses should be encour-
aged.
The United States has previously
been drawn on to supply European
countries at war. In the Boer war
100000 horses were bought here by
the British government. 1t may be
doubted whether a foreign govern
ment could obtain a similar supply in
this country, except at excessive cost
However, if farmers take pains to util-
ize their good mares during this win
ter to breed them to good stations
in the course of several years (time
enough for the foals to develop Amer.
lea will be better able to meet the
European demand.

Poultry Hints

Too much glass in the henhouse is
not an advantage. Hens do not need
heat so much as they do an even tenn
perature. Many large glass windows
raise the temperature materially dur
ing the day: at night they radiate
heat. lowering the temperature of the
room.
II every third window is removed
and the opening covered snugly with
burlap or unbleached muslin Their
mometer will prove that the tempera-
ture of the house is much more even.
OF course the building must be snugly
built and free from draughts, and the
roosting space must be snug and not
too large. But hens need fresh air as
much "a they do warmth and sunshine
and this the cloth covered windows
furnish without allowing a draught to
blow over the fowls.
Don't let any cabbage or other roots
go to waste; in fact 1t is quite worth
while to raise them especially for the
hens. Tie a stout string around the
roots Of several cabbages and tie them
up in the henhouse 30 that the hens
can just nicely reach them. 1t IL inter
estins to see how excited they get over
picking away at the delicious green
stuff; a continued performance of this
helps to NIL the egg basket.

Effects of Manure
on Different Soils

during the first year. on account of
slowness of decomposition but since
the clay possesses very powerful alb
sorptive properties the manure is not
lost. The fertilizing constituents are
retained in the soil, and are finally
utilized by the crop. There is, there
fore, little or no danger on this &C
count in applying manure to clay soils
long while in advance of the planting
of the crop. During dry seasons the
manure may produce little effect, but
with sufficient amount of moisture
it's action is likely to be considerable.
The application to such soils of large
quantities of manure improves their
physical condition.
The behavior of calcareous soils to-
ward manure is very variable, depend
ing upon the compactness of the soil.
In those which are sufficiently porous
decomposition goes on with great ra-
pidity, and the soluable fertilizing con-
,stituents formed may be partially car
ried away in the drainage water before
they can be taken up by the plants.
For this reason, as in case of light
soils, the manure should be applied
shortly before it is needed by the crop.

Lamensss is defined as any irreg-
ulayity Of the gait regardless Of the
cause or degree.
1t is not hard to determine the fact
that a horse Is lame, but cases often
occur when the lameness is SO slight
that it is difficult for even an expert
to locate it or even be sure that the
animal Is lame.
One of the most common errors Is
that Of locating the lameness on the
wrong side. This is easily avoided If
one will remember that the head and
weight of the body usually come down
most noticeably with the sound limb.
AS an illustration, a horse being lame
in the left front leg, the drop most
often being indicated by the nod of
the head. 1t is usually conceded that
the trot is the best gait for diagnostiC
purposes, but the movement should be
studied both at the walk and trot.
To Detect Lameness.
The animal should be tried on both
hard and soft ground. and on a side
hill. If the lameness is in the foot 1t
will be most warked when the animal
travels on hard ground. But II the
lameness is in the shoulder, 1t will be
most noticeable when he travels in
deep mud or snow.
In examining an animal, he should
first be observed unblanketed In the
stall. making him step from side to
side, noting how he stands at rest
Then the horse should be taken out
and observed while walking and trot
ting. coming toward. passing and
going away from the observer. 1t is
especially important to observe the
head and hips of the animals. in solv.
ing the first problems of locating the
diseased limb.
1t should always be borne in mind
that the front foot is an especially
common seat of lameness.

Many experiments have shown that
barnyard manure is one of the most
effective means of increasing the pro-
of swamp or muck soils.
This is thought to be due largely to
the increase of available nitrogen
brought about by the application OF
the manure. Decomposition takes
place slowly in heavy soils, and the
constituents of the fresh manure be-
comes available very slowly. In light
soils, on the other hand, unless the
season is dry, the conditions are such
that the manure decomposes readily,
and the fertilizing constituents are
probably rendered available as fast as
the plant needs them.
There is considerable danger on this
class of soils that some Of the solua BILE
constituents will be carried away in
the drainage if well-rotted manure is
applied. For this reason such manure
should be applied to light soils shortly
before it is likely to be needed by the
crop. In general, it may be said that
for spring application the more readily
available rotted manure is preferred
to the fresh, unrotted material.
On clay soils 1t often happens that
manure produces no effect whatever

According to the last monthly crop
report, issued by the Department OF
Agriculture last week, grain crops IN
Guiding wheat, corn, oats, rye and bar
ley, will this year aggregate 4,945,0o0,-
900 bushels, the second largest yield
on record. The estimate on the yield
of corn is 100000 bushels, an in
crease of 100000 bushels over the
forecast made a month ago. The estl-
mate on the yield Of oats, also, shows
a large increase over the estimate
made a month ago. The present re-
port gives the yield of oats 1,137,O 0o,-
900 bushels while that of last month
gave it as 100000.
The three leading grains, wheat,
corn and oats. aggregate 4,705,O00,o0O
bushels, or 95,OO0,O0O bushels in excess
of September returns, and 373,OO0,ooo

ARMY WORM COMES
Moth Reaches This Part Of
State.

Wayne county farmers may be on
the lookout for an invasion of the
army worm next year. Large numbers
of the moths which are the adults of
the ar11y worm, have been recently
seen gathered under the arc lights in
Richmond. So many of the dead
moths have fallen in the Pennsylvania
station as to become nuisance. The
moths can be recognized by the faWn-
covered outer wings with dark spot
in the center, and the lighter colored
under wings with a darker border
The army worm attacks lawns, and

tackled alfalfa fields in Northern

and oats, mixed half and half, that
they will eat. If the farmer has no
oats, wheat bran can be substituted.
To make the calf sleep or to retain its
sleek condition give it a handful of
oil meal along with some other feed
like corn chop. AS soon as the calf
gets used to oil meal it will eat it
greedily. A little every day is the
proper manner to feed oil meal.
A variety Of rough feed should be
given the calf. Naturally alfalfa is
one of the desirable rough feeds. Corn
fodder, ETC., can be mixed in with the
alfalfa occasionally.
Calves should be bedded at night
and have warm sleeping quarters. If
the calves are we'll treated during the
winter months the farmer will have
some nice animals to turn into his
pasture when grass comes the follow
ing spring.
