noon, tying his mount, the above-men
toned colt, to tree.
Later, as he was about to leave, he
walked straight to the colts head; the
latter edged away, backing the full
length of the reins; the rider then
extended a gloved hand straight in
the colts face with the idea of pat
ting him on the nose, but the now
trembling young animal mistook the
abrupt motion, and, swinging back,
broke the bride at the headstall and
galloped off.
The city man was somewhat sur

MORE LIVE STOCK Is NEEDED
Unless More Attention Is Given to
Farm Animals Fertility Of Soil
Will Be Depleted.
(By WALTER B. LEUTZ. }

(By w ALLEN Is. LII O1A)
Unless American farmers grow
more live stock in the future the fer
tility of the soil wiz be wasted at
such a rate that farming will prove
generally improbable. Such is the
conclusion which has been reached by
students of the problem, as we'll as
practical farmers in every commu.
unity of the United States.
The farm animal is absolutely nee
essary. There are many reasons for
this. Live stock enables much OF
the waste about the farm to be con-
verified into meat, milk and work.
Much of the crops on the farm can
be marketed in smaller packages,
when converted into butter, milk and
meat. The boys and girls on the farm
are far more liable to become inter-
ested in farming if an interest in live
stock can be awakened.

BAD HABITS or COLTS
Trick Once Learned Becomes
Harder to Break Each Day.
Example Cited of City Man Who At

(3y J, M, BELL.)

The secret of breaking a colt prop.
erly is to keep him from learning bad
habits, not curing him Of them after
they have been acquired, although the
latter must be done if he has acquired
them, providing you want we'll
broken horse.
A bad trick once learned soon be-
comes a set habit, becoming harder
to cure each day if rot stopped in the
earliest stages.
Let me cite an example: A neigh
Dor of mine has a very fine colt that
he put in the hands of trainer to
break to light harness, double and
single, and also the saddle.
The trainer knew his business and
in a months time the colt was fairly
steady in harness and under the
saddle, but, being of nervous dispo-
sition and rather suspicious of human
beings, had to be handled very care
fully.
He was especially nervous when
anyone approached his head, whether
he was tied in his stall or to hitch
ing post, and inclined to run back
against the halter or bride if ap-
preached too hurriedly.
The trainer-a real horseman-who
noticed all peculiarities Of the many
different horses he handled from time
to time, was extremely careful not to
excite this particular colt and Ger.

Consequently, the colt, although
showing signs of nervousness at times,
never attempted to really pull back
and break away.
The trainer left, after his work was
done, and soon afterward a city cousin,
a good fellow, but no horseman, paid
my neighbor visit and he was given
the colt to ride.
Now, although the city man was no
horseman in the strict acceptance OF
the word, yet he was devoted to horse

SAVE THE STRAW STACKS,
SAYS PROF. THOMAS SHAW

The crops in the Dakotas and
Montana are phenomenal as
every one knows. This relates
to the straw as we'll as to the
grain. It may be years before
the like of it will be seen again.
Because of the very abundance
of the straw yields, the danger
is imminent that much of it will
be wasted, even when the crop
is normal, the common custom is
to burn much of the straw in
some places, nearly all of it. 1t
should not be so burned. The
aim should be to use all of it for
bedding or as food for live stock.
If it cannot all be cared for thus,
it should be spread over the
ground and buried. There are
machines that will do this now
and do it effectively.
The straw in dry areas is very
valuable for food, especially
when it has been cut in season.
It is richer in nutrients than the
straw in more humid sections.
1t is also much more palatable as
it it brighter, and usually it is
free from rust. 1t is really too
bad to have a forkfull of that
straw burned, now it will prob
ably happen that many farmers
will not have the stock to con-
sumo all of that straw. What
should they do with it? Why
leave it in the stack and hold it
over for another year. In dry
areas it is always a good plan to
carry foodstuffs, both fodder and
grain, at least to some extent,
from one year to another. This
will greatly help out the farmer
when a dry season comes.
In the winter of 1914-15, it
came to the knowledge of the
writer that some farmers drew
straw for 20 miles in some linn
tied areas in order to save their
stock. Next year may be very
dry, we never can tell before
hand. Should that be the case,
the unused straw stacks would
render great service in the Win
ter that follows. These stacks
do not waste as they would do in
humid areas, hence they will
furnish good food for a long
time after they have been made.
The greatest want Of soils
usually in dry areas is the want
of humus soils even that are
newly broken in areas of short
rainfall are usually low in humus.
When the practice becomes COM
mon to burn the straw, each crop
grown just reduces the humus
by the amount of the straw that
is burned. The men who head
their grain lose far less humus
than the men who reap it, pro-
viding they don't burn off the
stubbles. When land is thus
robbed of it's humus the soil gets
out of mechanical balance, so
that it is harder to till. It does
not hold moisture SO well, nor
are the plants SO we'll furnished
with nutrients. 1t is true Of
nearly all western soils that they
are much more in need Of a lib
eral supply of humus than they
are in need of fertilization.

sales under the old system was not

system of quick sales il should yield

The one means by which this med

sistent advertising. reasonably proper
toned as a necessary part of regular
expenses.
The amount of business that store
does is in proportion 10 the persist

Consequently the store that adver-
tises is he store that turns its capital
frequehJly. Such a merchant does rot
need TO get as much of profit on
each sale as the slow turning store
does. Wherefore it pays the public to
patronize the stores that advertise
