MUCH HORSE POWER is LOST
Full Use of Animals Would Materially
Reduce Cost of Crop Production
More Work Is Urged.
CBy w. ]. sPILLMAN0


Carefully conducted Investigations
by the agricultural department of the
University of Minnesota, as we'll as
those conducted by the office of farm
management of the United States de-
partment of agriculture, show that
under ordinary conditions on Ameri-
can farms work horses are utilized
only about three and a half hours a
day on the average. Horse power is
thus utilized to less than half its ca
pacity. Per unit of work done this
power costs more than twice what it
should cost. The full utilization of the
power actually available would thus
reduce materially the cost of produc-
ing crops. The cost of keeping a work
horse is on the average about $125 a
year. The average utilization of the
horse is about 1850 hours a year, ut
an hourly cost of ten cents per hour
If we double the number of hours
work the horse does-and this can be
done without injury to the Animal
we reduce the hourly cos. to five
cents.

ENEMY OF THE CHRISTOPHER
Blister Beetles-Destroy All Grass
hopper Eggs in the Fall.

Among the natural enemies of the
grasshoppers are the blister beetles
or old-fashioned potato bugs, the
larvae of which subsist almost wholly
on grasshopper eggs. The blister
beetles become very abundant in
grasshopper years when food is plen-
tiful. However, little or nothing is
gained by substituting a plague Of
blister beetles for plague Of grass
hoppe-s ard the wiser course is to
destroy as many grasshopper eggs as
possible in the fall. thereby cutting
of the development of both sorts of
pests.

being raised, though this is decreas-
ing year by year as the farmers are
becoming educated better along this
line.
For a long time it has been the
rule that any place on the farm was
good enough for the hens and they
have often had to live and even raise
their young under the very poorest
conditions, often being obliged to live
in the hogpen and wade around
among their filth. What can be ex-
pected of poultry raised in any such
manner? Surely not very much. No
farmer would expect any return of
profit from any of the rest of his live
stock on the farm unless he fed and
cared for it well. The same rule holds
good with poultry. 1t is a fact that
the hens will give a better and clearer
profit without feed, except what they
pick up, and without the proper at
tention all but gathering up the eggs)
than any other living animal on the
farm. How much more could be ex-
pected of them, then, il the right kind
of attention be given them. The pro-
gressive farmer ought to make all
he can out of every branch on the
farm. Why pay all of his attention
to one line and entirely neglect an
other line? If he can be convinced
that it pays better to put in a stock
of purebred poultry instead of con-
tinuing to breed scrubs, he certainly
ought to make the change. and it is
up to us who believe in the best pay
ing the most profit, to show this sort
of farmer the better side of standard
bred poultry.

prevent their leaking and un-
necessary waste of water, and
also that some new bedding
