HOPPER FOR POULTRY
Idea Is Finding Place on Many
Farms With Small FIocks.
Reduces the Labor Of Care and Feed
Inc and Also Supplies Fowls With
Necessary ingredients Of Well
Balanced Ration.

The hopper feeding OF poultry OF all
classes is becoming customary among
the large poultrymen and is finding a
place on many farms and in small
flocks.
The main idea is to reduce the la
Dor OF care and feeding and at the
same time supply the fowls with the
necessary ingredients Of a balanced
ration. Mixtures of ground grains and
feeds are most frequently used in the
boppers. The fowls seem not likely
to overfeed of such mixtures and when
whole grains are fed in litter and suf-
ficient exercise induced in this manner,
good results are had both in egg pro-
duction and body development Of
young fowls. Growing chicks on free
range do splendidly when hopper fed
and the time and labor of caring for
them is reduced to minimum.
A dry mash much used is composed
Of the following: Bran, 100 pounds;

KEEPING THE SOIL WELL FED
Addition Of Phosphorus or Potassium
or a Combination Of Both May
Be Found Necessary.

Good use of manure and some
clover and clover sod plowed under in
a short rotation may not give the full
est results desired, even though good
deep seeded is made and the best of
the seed is planted. Manure and green
clover plowed under may not prove a
balanced ration to permit the soil to
produce maximum crops. Here soil
science should be brought into use to
determine what can be used for best
results to balance up the manure and
clover if the soil seems to fail to sup
ply all the necessary elements. An
addition of phosphorus or potassium.
or combination of both these ele-
ments in the form of phosphate and
potash fertilizers may be necessary.
The heavier soils usually contain a
large amount of potassium and hence
1t is seldom required as fertilizer
So long as these soils are well sup
piled with active organic matter this
element will become available to meet
crop needs. In some cases, however,
some potash fertilizer may prove a
profitable investment. Marsh soils, as
rule. require potash fertilizers.

LOOK AFTER FEET OF SHEEP
While Some Breeds Are More Suscep
tble to Trouble Than Others,
None Are Exempt.

It is important that the feet of the
sheep should be looked after daily at
this season Of the year, because dur
ing the winter months many Of the
sheep pens may have become foul, or
the yards in which the sheep have
been running have been muddy, and
the continual tramping in foul pens or
muddy yards tends to produce sore
feet in the sheep, which. If let go, is
liable to become a serious trouble in
the flocks.
The feet should be thoroughly
cleaned If there is the least doubt that
the feet may become sore. While some
breeds of sheep are more susceptible
to this trouble than others, none are
exempt from 1t. After the feet have
been cleaned. they should be washed
with an antiseptic. A wash that we
have used with success is prepared by
dissolving one pound of blue vitriol
In one and a half gallons OF water.
A good carbolic acid wash is also eff
fective.
whether the feet are sore or not,
they should be examined to see II the
soles have turned under. Sheep like
rolling land best to Craze on, and there
is a good reason for this. as they abhor
moist lands over which they are TO
Craze, and II placed on wet lands. with
most breeds, the sheep are very likely
to have trouble with foot rot"

dales in good condition.
Surely here is a subject worthy of
consideration by the intending pur-
chaser.
The thing that most serves to arouse
my admiration for the breed is their
wonderful disposition. We find in
them a combination of almost all the
best traits of horsefiesh.
They are ever on their mettle, yet
not nervoussor fretful. They are free,
prompt workers and always willing.
They always keep their heads 1t is
very seldom we find one that is over

We have reached an age when the
demands of the times are for the large,
yet early maturing animal. The Per
cheron comes very near to filling this
bill.

PERCHERONS IN FAVOR
Best Adapted to Demands Of
User Of Draft-Horse.
They DO Well In Cotton Fields Of South
and Wheat Fields Of Canada
Stand Hard Work Better Than
Any Other Breed.
By e. e. HENDERSON,

| NBy ~. ~. HENDERSON,
The Percheron has proved himself
to be the breed most adapted to the
demands of the user Of the draft-horse,
in all sections of the country.
They do well on the cotton fields of
the South and in the wheat fields of
Canada. They are popular in the East
and in the West. On the farm they
are the farmers mainstay.
In the city they are able to with
stand the hard work better than any
other breed, witness the fact that
dealers often pay as much as $50, in
the hundred, for horses bearing that
indelible Percheron color, gray, more
than for horses of similar quality but
lacking that trademark.
The demand of today is for a horse
that can stand the strain OF long
hours, pulling heavy loads over ell
kinds of roads, for a horse that is
prompt and yet quiet, one that can
move the heaviest of loads and yet,
when the occasion demands it, can get
up and go. The Percheron seems to
be the one horse that can fully fill
these requirements.
A thing that is much desired by the
corn-belt farmer is economy of main
tenance. The horse to be desired is
not only one that can do large days
work, but one that will do it on a
minimum of feed. A case in point:
We have in one of our teams a pure
bred Percheron mare of 1900 pounds.
Her team mate. carrying a large
percentage of the blood of another pop
ular breed, weighs about the same.
These two mares do exactly the
same work, have the same attention
and yet the grade mare eats 20 per
cent more feed daily than does tho
purebred Percheron. Even then she
is not in the condition of her mate
While the Percheron is smooth, and
in fine condition, the other is thin and,
to the eye, unlovely.

of the leading importers in the United
States, in which he states that he can
