What influence will the present
tendency to mule breeding have upon
the horse supply of the future? The
high prices and the scarcity of mules
have suggested to many farmers and
horse raisers both North and South
the desirability of raising mules from
the standpoint of sales for profit.
There is an increased demand for
large mares to breed mules. This
tendency is not confined to any par
ticular locality. 1t is not alone in
the northern horse raising states, but
is spreading in the South. Carloads
OF large young mares have been pur-
chased and shipped into the heart
OF the southern states for the joint
purpose Of teams and mule raising.
The mule is gaining in popularity for
team work wherever the horse and
mule are in use.
The tendency to mule preference
seems to be based Ipon economy of
service in team work on the farm and
wherever horse power is demanded.
The demand for more mules means
mares employed in the raising of

FALLACY OF LONG STANDING
That Frost 10 Most Likely to Occur
In the Light Of the Moon"
70 Wrong Idea.

One of the most tenacious beliefs
Is that the weather is affected by
the movement of the moon. 1t is gen.
orally considered that frost is more
likely to occur in the light of the
moon" than at any other time. For
this reason crops which the frost is
likely to destroy are planted at such
time as to be certain to avoid q
full moon.
The moon reflects sunlight to the
earth and produces the tides. It has
minor effects. such as changing the DO
sition of the earth and causing min.
ute reflections of the magnetic needle;
these last. are, however, so small that
they have only effect upon refined In.
struments of detection, and it has
been proved conclusively these two
have no relation to the change of
weather. Regarding the two former
effects named. 1t is quite easy to un.
derstand that reflected sunlight from
the moon cannot affect the weather.
In the first place. more light IL re-
ceived from the sun in thirty min.
utes than from the moon in one year.
and. moreover. the greatest reflection
10 at full moon: from q logical point
OF view then it should be warmer in.
stead OF colder at full moon. This
should disprove any argument that
the reflected light makes It colder
at full moon.

SEPARATOR IS USEFUL
Invention Has Helped to Revolu.
tionize Dairy Business.
One Great Advantage 10 Capitalization
Of Industry-Whole-MiIk Plant
and Swimming Stations Are
Fast Disappearing.

(By J. NJ. CADwALLADER. Louisiana
Experiment Station.)
The cream separator is one of the
great inventions that has helped to
revolutionize the dairy business. Its
effect has been especially noticeable
upon the butter industry. Its ten
dency has been to lower the quality of
butter, but this is not due to any fault
in the principle Of the cream separa-
tor but chiefly to the lack of proper
care of the separator and in han.
ding the cream. One great advantage
resulting from the use of the sepa-
rator is GENERALIZATION of the dairy
business. and the whole-milk plant
ands skimming stations are disappear
ing.
Milk should be separated at q tenn
perature of IS to 80 degrees and
separation can be accomplished best
as soon as the milk is drawn from
the COW. for at that time it has a
temperature near SO degrees. There
may be some makes of separators
which will separate at a lower tenn
perature than others. but the same
machine will do more efficient work
at higher temperature.
Since bacteria are the cause of the
souring of milk and cream and they
have luxuriant growth at high
temperature. especially the undesira-
BILE kinds. the cream should be cooled
as soon as possible to 60 degrees or
lower, preferably so degrees F. This
can be accomplished by passing the
cream over special apparatus made
for that purpose or, in case there is
only a small amount of cream. 1t may
be placed in a tin vessel of some
kind and this vessel placed in cold
running water. or ice water is prefer
able. All containers or utensils which
come in contact with the milk should
be washed thoroughly with boiling
water and allowed to sun and air
when not in use.
The mornings cream should be
cooled to the same temperature as the
evenings cream and then they can be
mixed without injury to the keeping

PROTECTION FOR THE TREES
In Fastening Wire for Fence Il 70
Best to Place Strip Of Board Be-
tween Tree and Wire,

It often happens in erecting wire
fencing that one or more valuable
shade trees are found to be In direct
line with the posts. thereby necessi.
tating fastening Of the wire to the
tree. Ordinarily. II the tree is of only
little value. the trunk is hewed slight
ly and the wire is fastened directly
to the tree. but as this method OF fas.
tenfng is very damaging to the tree.
1t is seldom used where the value of
the tree is considered.
Wire fastened directly to the tree
soon becomes overgrown with bark.
and this not only damages the tree.
but the wire coming in contact with
the acids Of the tree. Is also dam.
aged. This can be averted by using
strip Of lumber between the fence
and the tree. Nail a strip of lumber
about five inches wide to the tree
and fasten the fence to this. This
method Of fastening does not iniure
the tree or the wire. and when the
fence is removed the wire does not
have to be cut at the tree. as when II

fishing of the horse producing ability

estimate that not more than so per

The diversion of any considerable

NAL, must sooner or later result in a
great dearth Of horses. The mule
colt fever is spreading And farmers
everywhere are talking the desirable
ity Of mule raising Just because the
mule colt is a ready seller at a good
price. 1t is well to keep in mind that
increased production of mules means
decreased production of horses as
