S0WS FROM FALL

with good length and depth of body,
neat and short heads, wide between
the eyes, medium bone and large
heart girth with well sprung ribs and
a well developed set of vital organs

constitution. Sows that come from

MEANING OF HORSE POWER
Term as II Is Used Today Is to Ger
tain Extent a Mislesd-
ing One.

Many years ago, before most of the
motors of today were thought posi-
BILE, man used the horse to turn the
wheels of his machinery by means of a
treadmill. In this way the horse
came to stand for unit of power &C
cording to the size of the machine he
could work effectively.
When engines began to displace
horses, because they could develop
several times the motive power, it was
natural to refer to their capacity on
the basis OF horse power unit. by
speaking of an engine as being able to
do the work of two, three, four, five
or more horses. And so the custom
was established of making use of the
term as descriptive Of power.
The fact that a horse power"-or
simply h. p. as it generally figures in
engineering descriptions really
means a greater power than is expect
ed of a horse and greater than he is
capable of. It means the power to
lift 10000 pounds one foot in one
minute.
The continued use of the old term
to indicate this modern unit Of power
for an engine or motor illustrates how,
for want of suitable substitute, Gus
tom will keep alive term that has
lost its apparent significance.

Old story improved.

The other day a man over in Jer-
sey bought a tive-cent package of the
solace of mankind. When he opened
the carton and began using the chew
ing tobacco it contained he felt some
thing hard between his teeth. Upon
investigating he found that in some
strange manner, not yet explained, he
had become possessed of a diamond
valued at $3.50. This tale is a new
and interesting variant of the old fa-
miliar pearl-fnding story that obtains
currency every .ow and then. Cen
orally the fortunate man discovers a
pearl of great value in his half dozen
of raws. But finding diamonds is
really great improvement ON the
pearl classic; It strikes new and
original note on the part of the para
grapher.

four big, strong horses running around
and playing like so many colts, and
even rolling 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 cold OF 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 in
juring 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
con had been wintering a nerd of
horses out of doors, and for the last
20 years, on his Iowa farm. These
horses have access to a shed where
they could find protection from the cold
blasts, but it said that they sought
protection in wooded ravine and
would not go into the shed, even in
the worst weather. This herd of
horses enjoy the best of health, and,
being put in the pasture when between
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 always stand in
need of
Too many stations are pampered,
and at the same time injured by keep
ing them shut up in close stalls, when
they should have the run of a pad
dock every good day during the win
ter.
Just rememember that it is almost
impossible to hurt horse of any
class, or of any breed, by turning him
out and letting him keep warm by
moving around in the paddock. field
or lot

equally we'll to brood-mares and colts

PLAN TO INTEREST
FARMER IN DAIRY
While Indifference Is Manifested,
No Improvement in Mate.
rial Is Expected.

The person who could succeed In
getting up some scheme Of interesting
the average farmer in the dairy bust
ness would be entitled to have his
name enrolled among the benefactors
of the human race.
While this may seem to be an ex-
travagant statement it is not as much
so as it might seem before 1t is ex-
amined into more closely.
The average farmer today is a
dairyman just because he happens to
be. He did not go into it premeditat-
eddy, he just drifted into it. He found
himself with a few cows and little
more milk and cream on hand than
his family could consume and he sold
it, and he probably gave no thought to
whether it was good product or not.
He sold it simply because he found
out he could, and he probably never
took the trouble to look up the price,
or the test.
AS long as the average farmers are
as Indifferent as this, we can look for
but little difference in the character
of the raw material that is coming to
the creameries.
Just what is going to be necessary
to interest the average farmer In
dairying is pretty hard to tell. One
thing is certain, he cannot be driven
into it. 1t also seems that he cannot
be persuaded into it.

We are now in the midst of winter
weather, and the daily care of the
farm teams should be a 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
work stock cannot remain In a thrifty
condition.
The question OF exercise is most
important one, and one that should
never be neglected. ] think it is a.
good plan to turn out all of the work
horses every day that are not in act
ual 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 is very
liable to stock up from want of exer-
else. Then, again, all of them will be
more subject to colds than where they
are turned out to run around and play
in the farmyard.

And Just before the ,rening of

himself to none. His trio of girls had
been very bitter toward the old maid.
believing that she would try to catch
the druggist. Miss Carter had been in
the store half dozen times to make
small purchases, and. of course, had
been treated politely, when one day
the druggist found time to muse:
Shes an old maid, but don't be-
lieve she's set in her ways. She has
reached the age when she's no longer
frivolous, and she must know consid-
cradle about business"
And, after selling a box of pills to
q farmer who complained about the
pesky potato bugs, he went on:
There are three or four nice girls
here, but who can tell what sort of
wives they will make?"
And, after selling box of cough
drops to redheaded woman who OBJ
served that it looked like rain. the
druggist went back to his musing.
Yes, Miss Carter has got money,
and she must find It worry to marry
for money, but if l had a tidy little
sum ! should know how to use it to
good advantage. They say that Miss
Carter is thirty-eight years old, while
| am only twenty-four. but love does
not take age into account"
That night he called at her home
and said: Miss Carter, ] am bust

will you tell me why?" be asked.

When it was reported that the old
maid had turned down the druggist
that one Of the girls might have
chance at him, an indignant meeting
was held in almost every house.
What sort Of game is it?" was
demanded.
why doesn't she lie and tattle and
start rows the same as other old
maids?"
Il want to tell you that this comes
mighty nigh breaking down the bull
warks of American liberty" said
Deacon Pardon.
At length one of the ministers was
induced to call on the old maid and
ask for an explanation.

"No-o-o."
