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 a 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 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 1t is almost i'm
possible to hurt 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.

We are now in the midst of spring
weather, and the daily care of the
farm teams should be matter of i'm
portance TO their owners. This car
ing for them does not altogether con-
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
dition.
The question of exercise is a most
important one and one that should
never be neglected think it a good
plan to turn out all of the work horses
every day that are not in actual use,
especially on days when there is no
falling weather.
One Of the greatest mistakes that a
farmer can make is to leave his teams
standing in the barn, day after day,
and on full feed, as they are liable to
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 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.
He too was turned out with the other
three that had their regular coats of
winter hair on them.
1t was pretty sight to see the four

How to Apply Water.

In a dry time plants must either be
drenched or left alone. A little sur
face watering only causes the roots
to feed nearer the surface and they
will then be injured by the drought
more than If they are not watered at
all. Stirring the surface soil will do
more good than anything but generous
and continued watering. For single
plants old tin cans with perforated
bottoms may be set half their height
in the ground near the roots and the
water poured into them.

BEGIN GINNING BIG COTTON CROP
 OF JEFFERSON
First Bale Handled at Tuck CT Yesterday
 Damaging.

Jefferson countys first bale of the 1914 cotton crop was ginned yesterday afternoon at Tucker by D. B. Niven x Co. The first bale this year was gin ned few days earlier than last year.
 Picking in many sections of the county has begun in earnest and be- fore many weeks many wagons con- taing bales of the fleecy staple will be brought to Pine Bluff for market ing. The crop this year is said to be the largest Jefferson county has pro- duced for many years and all of the cotton factors in the city are prepar- ing to handle a banner crop"
 Many of the farmers in the south- eastern section of the county are eX- periencing considerable difficulty with the boil weevil, and many of the farm CTS whose cotton has not advanced far enough to be picked are spending much time in ridding the cotton of the pest.
 Sig Wood a wealthy farmer near Grady, about 26 miles from Pine Bluff said that his crop had been damaged considerably by the weevil. MT. Wood owns about 1000 acres of fine cotton land and at present is working all his hands in an effort to rid the stalks of the pest.
 Crops in Jefferson county have de- teriorated during the past two weeks because of the incessant rains, but the farmers remain very optimistic and believe that this years crop will be a banner one.

SEES ENTRANCE 0F TURKEY AND
 ITALY INTO WAR
Secretary Issues Warning to Americans in Europe
 to Return Home.

Washington, Aug. 27.-Secre'ary Bryan today issued direct warning to all Americans in Europe to return home. The warning reads: :
 "All Americans are advised to re- turn home as soon as they can secure transportation facilities. War creates uncertainties, so that predictions about the future cannot be made with any degree of accuracy. It IS not wise, therefore, for Americans abroad to delay their return longer than is absolutely necessary. This does not, however, mean that every one should try to take the same boat, but means that there should be no unnecessary delay"
 It is feared that within a snort time both Italy and Turkey will be drawn into the European conflagra- tion, and the administration is anX- ious to be relieved of the work of caring for Americans in Europe in order to be able to turn it's full at tention to more pressing problems that will face the United States in it's commercial and other functions.

London. Aug. 27-The French em- bassy denies that Lille has been re- taken by the Germans. Desperate fighting was in progress III the vicinity of Lille this morning as well as yalenciennes and Roubaix, which were also reported to have been cap tured. but the Germans, according to embassy officials, were forced to re- tire.
 A dispatch. from Ostend reported the capture of the three cities, all of which are well within the French border. Military men were disinclln- ed to credit the report, despite a press dispatch from Ostend which quoted a Belgian officer as saying that it was decided last Monday not to defend Lille. On Tuesday, accord ing to this account, the mayor of the city issued a proclamation announc- ing the evacuation of the French troops and the transformation of the town into an undefended place.
 All the gendormes were disarmed and steps were taken to deliver the city with all it's rich factories up to the Germans.
 This officer is declare to have said that on Tuesday all the available treasure was removed.

DEMAND F CTS FOR 1914 COTTON
 URGES JORDAN
Price of That Stored Should Be Fixed at 9 Cents, He
 Tells SOutherners.

New Orleans, Aug. 27.--A general discussion of the cotton situation in relation to the European war was on the program at the conference of rep from twelve Southern states called to meet here today Har- vie Jordan of Atlanta, president of the Southern Cotton association, who call ed the conference, announced that af- ter organization committees to consid- CT the following phases of the cotton situation would be named:
 Warehouse facilities and storage of cotton, financing of cotton in storage minimum price for spot cotton; fed eral aid and state legislation; ocean transportation, food supply crops and cotton acreage for 1915; cotton ex- changes, supply and consumption of cotton.
 MT. Jordan. in his opening address. said that in his opinion the growers should unite on minimum price of 12 cents a pound for cotton offered on the markets and g cents for the ap- proximately 100000 bales it is ex- pected will have to be stored and financed.
 In setting forth what he believed should be the definite plan of action of the conference, he said:
