taken in hand at this age, he makes an

The raising Of draft horses is differ

on the farm. Important factors are
good food and attention. Good breed
ing gives the possibilities, but good
feeding is necessary to bring this out
to its fullest extent,
Il is better for the man Of limited

because the exclusive raising Of draft
horses for market requires consider
able capital The returns at first are
slow, for draft horses must be six

binary farm II bred to a good stallion
should produce several good colts
every year. besides doing the ordinary
farm work. To secure the best results
the brood mare that does the farm
work must be given the best Of care
and attention.
The use OF silage as a horse feed
still is a debated question. Some
horsemen have used It successfully
and others have had disastrous results.
All silage fed to horses should be
sweet and fresh Moldy or spoiled
silage also is an unsafe feed for
horses because Of the danger Of caus-
ing collie. The silage should be made
of fairly mature crops, and 1t should
be stored in the silo properly.
II you don't speak to the horse ev-
cry time you pass behind his heels,
you may wake up some morning with
a skinned head or a broken bone,
When a horse hears a racket behind
him, sometimes he doesn't wait to see
what It is, but whacks away at It with
both feet.
Be careful with the colt you are
breaking this spring. Don't try to
do It all in one day; II you do you
may not only break him to work, but
you may break his heart as we'll Get
him used to pulling gradually. II isn't
reasonable to expect a colt to go out
IN the field hitched to a disk or plow
and do as much as the old seasoned
horse.
