We are now In the midst Of winter
weather. and the daily care of the
farm teams should be 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 thrifty
condition.
The question of exercise Is a most
important one, and one that should
never be neglected. think it Is
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
. 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.
Last winter the writer had man
renting land from him; this man
handled farm teams In many of the
northern and western states, espe-
cially In Montana, Idaho and Washing
ton, also In Minnesota. In all of these
states he had used teams on the road
and on the farm. Moving to Virginia
In the month of December, he bought
four head of horses in the city OF
Richmond, and bringing them down to
the farm, put them in rather open
barn. and kept stable blankets on them
at night. and, In fact. all the time that
they stood In the barn. But he did
not keep them in the barn in the day
time unless it was raining, or snow
Ing, for on all fa!%ly bright days, never
mind how cold, the horses were turned
out. the blankets having first been
taken OF. One of these horses had
just been clipped, and he, too. was
turned out with the other three that
had their regular coats of winter hair
on them.

SOWS FROM FALL
LITTERS ARE BEST
Animals From Prolific Families
Are Certain to Make the
Best Mothers.
By W. II. KELLY

In selecting breeding sows l prefer
to select the pigs from fall filters as
they arrive at the age that l prefer
to have my sows when they drop their
drst litter and when allowed to OBJ
tain q large part OF their growth and
development on pasture and forage

rive at the very best period of de-
velOpment to breed for filters early
the next spring.
aim to select large, roomy sows
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
q we'll developed set Of vital organs
consequently, vigorous and hardy
constitution. Sows that come from
prolific families are more certain to
inherit those qualities and become
good mceners than those that descend
from families that are less prolific.
When we get 4 good SOW that brings

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 or even a cough, all
during the time they were on this
Virginia farm.
OF course l 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
son 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 1t said that they sought
protection In a 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. IL 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 q pad
dock every good day during the win
ter.
Just rememember that 1t Ia 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.
The same simple rule will apply
equally we'll to brood-mares and colts.

HOME TRADE NEEDED IN WEST
|Co-Operation Between the Seller and
Buyer.

AS | have stated before, the average
| western town depends upon it's retail
stores for life. 1t Is primarily trad
ing point Cripple the retail business
and you cripple the community. De-
stroy the stores, you destroy the town
| There are three classes of people
given to patronizing the home mer-
chant only when necessity demands
There is the fellow who takes pride In
saying that he Is independent of the
town. He holds mortgages on good
farms and owns some bank stock. He
buys most OF his goods away from
home and Is the star kicker. He has
very little property In the town but is
against every proposed progressive
step. fearing that his taxes will be in
creased one-tenth of one per cent. He
Is tired and retired The community
will not have lost much when he is
inferred
Then there are those people who buy
most of their goods by mail because
they have an idea by doing 80 they
are displaying laudable independence
and transacting real business. To write
out an order, to read the letter ack-
nowledging receipt to open the pack
age and check the goods with the bills,
gives them, feeling of Importance.
With them, imagined economy is not
the main inducement They love to
| pore over the catalogues and discuss
the different items. These cleverly
designed. illustrated and description
| illuminated books have for them q
strange fascination.
There is still another class Of mail
order buyers-f0lks who have hard
time to make both ends meet. They
save money small part of the time,
think they do part OF the time, but
deceiving themselves that they do all
the time
I These latter folks are often made
incurable catalogue buyers by some
interruptions store keeper, by discour-
teous clerks, by coming In contact with
merchants who are no business men.
Every place has the dealer who will
not compare his prices and merchan-
disc with those Of the catalogue houses
The mention OF catalogue house
throws him into tantrum. This sort
Of merchant is weak sister,"
Any dealer can hold his own with
these mail order concerns II he will

he must meet competition with quail

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 BUSH
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 1t might seem before 1t Is ex-
amined into more closely.
The average farmer today 10 q
dairyznan Just because he happens to
be. He did not go into it premeditat-
eddy, he just drifted into it He found
himself with few cows and little
more milk and cream on hand than
his family could consume and he sold
1t, and he probably gave no thought to
whether 1t was good product or not.
He sold 1t simply because he found
out he could. and he probably never
took the trouble to look up the price,
or the test
Al long as the average farmers are
an Indifferent as this, we can look for
but little difference In the character
of the raw material that IL 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 Ia certain, he cannot be driven
into It. 1t also seems that he cannot
b persuaded into 1t.

HARD TIMES IN THE '6OS
People Learned to Practice Economy
In the Period Following tho
Civil War.

The mother who had FIVE little chill
dren to look after during the hard
times that followed the Civil war, was
talking about the high prices which
the European conflict is causing.
People Will weather 1t In some
way" she said. ~We did In the Civil
war days, and prices aren't anything
now to what they were then.
How did we do it, Why, in every
possible way. 1 remember I utilized
salt bags to make underclothes for my
girls. The salt bags In those days were
of stouter. better material than they
are today, and. as I'd always been
thrifty and saved 'em all, they came
in pretty handy, can tell you. The
girls were not fond of sitting down
when they had their salt-bag undergar-
ments on, for they said there were 80
many seams that 1t hurt to sit down.
Il made white skirts for them all
three Of them-out of my own white
skirts. They were pretty full in those
days. / found l could get along with
one, and the rest l cut over for the
girls.
1.-THE boys wore ,hard-time SUITS
made of the cheapest, almost shoddy
material, and they looked just as
cheap and slimsy as they were. But
the boys didn't mind-it made no diff
ference whether they minded or not.
It was all most people could afford
I'VE women wore calico dresses q
lot We didn't need wear a cotton
gown crusade to get US started In
that direction. There was no other
direction for US to 60.
But somehow no one seemed to
whine or complain much. We were all
In the same boat. and we laughed and

MOTORIST TELLS IN VERSE
OF HILL CIIUB,

Seventy-five or 80 automobile en-
.husiasts gathered round Buick hill,
lear Bridgeport, Neb., many Sundays
ago to see a Michigan made car clean
Up on the Buick, according to the
North Platte News.
The story is told in rhythmic form,
md It's thus we will repeat it. 'Twes
AWFUL mcsn, but it diin t clean
crowds saw the Buick beat it.
Not a sound was heard
All was still as DEATH
And the waiting multitude
Held it's breath.
knd the zephyrs were hushed,
And the sun stood still.
While Bold Layoni
Surveyed the hill.
Twas noble hill,
From crown to base
Doc, Paine. started
To set the pace.
The Buick climbed
To the summit high
And the driver winked
To the sage brush nigh.
The bumblebee BUNDLED
In the suns bright glow
While the doctor bowed
To the crowd below.
And then he smiled
A smile most bland,
AS he gazed at the hill
And the rocks and the sand.
The horns were footed
From the rVad;
Charlie Claw ses Topped
His wings and crOwed;
And then Lavoni,
With spirits light.
Slowly started
Up the height.
But he reached a point
Where he had to stop
And he and his car
Never reached the top;
It was dollars to doughnuts,
The crowd all knew.
He had bitten off more
Than he could chew.
Lavoni, he struggled
And fumed and 1pat
But he had to stay In
The place he was at
He was there at the finish
In the tracks Buick made,
He could go at the bottom
But not on the grade.

At the beginning OF the war q great

been expressed why little or no use OF
