Drs. Stouder and Simonsen and

for the better breeding OF animals.
Prof. w. l.. Blizzard afterward gave

and soundness of draft horses. Every
physical feature OF the horse was
considered, the height, the proper
weight to do the most effective work
the depth of chest, the width OF the
hips and the general shape and con
tour OF the back and neck. The
best average weight was stated TO be
about 1850 pounds and the besl
height was little over 16 hands, and
the general form and development o.
the body should be proportionatel,
balanced. Special features as thu
shape and size OF the head. the nos

Some amusement was caused by
the various trials Of trying to guage
horses age by his teeth and the
wide differences in the ages express
ed and lastly the Doctor would take
hold by his scientific method, get the
age practically correct. In all OF these
matters the points were fully discus

ed. During the week, views Will be
shown by the use, of the lantern and
slides in order to give closer view
of the subjects, than, is presented by
the charts, and slides being more
true to nature. DIR. Stouder was as
sisted in his work by DR.. Simonson in
the general discussion and the ans

IDLE LAND LOSES FERTILITY
Less Organic Matter and Plant Food
Lost When Soil Occupied by Crop
Than When Resting.

Southern land should be kept at
work. In the North land is usually
left idle during part Of the year. No
particular harm comes there from
such practices If It does not wash, but
there Is another consideration for the
southern farmer. Repeated soil analy-
sis at various times have shown that
less organic matter and plant food
are lost when the land Is occupied by
crop than when 1t Is idle.
On idle land the plant food teaches
away, especially in loose sandy soils.
because 1t has no plant there to use
It as 1t becomes available. Then, too,
the sun beams down unhindered on
the soil and burns out the organic
matter which would otherwise be pro.
tected by growing crop. The Uni.
versity Of Florida experiment station
Is advocating that the land be plant
ed to catch crops between seasons
for the foregoing reasons.

FEEDING HORSE MUsTY OATS
Likely to Produce Intestinal Troubles
and Possibly Blind staggers--
Use Much Care.

|1y w. p sHULER. Oklahoma Expert
ment Station.)
A good deal of care must of ne
cessity be taken this fall in feeding
musty oats to horses continuously,
because Of the likelihood to produce
severe intestinal troubles and possi-
bly, blind staggers. Blind staggers is
caused by molds which thrive on
stunted corn, dampened barley, oats
and spoiled feed Of all kinds. If 1t
Is necessary to feed grain in this con-
dition, give a couple of teaspoonful
doses Of common salt with it at all
feelings.
Watch the bowels Of your animals
carefully, and whenever they show
any tendency to constipation admin.
lister one-half ounce Of fluid extract
of aloes or one-half pound Of epson
salts as drench. This kind Of grain
can be fed If care Is taken that too
much is not given and the animals
have plenty Of good, clean hay, fresh
water and salt to go along with it.

RAISING ALFALFA IN SOUTH
One Of Mysteries Why Leguminous
Crops Are Not Grown-Excellent
for the Cows.

The many feeding inquiries which
we receive from the South asking us
to formulate rations of cottonseed
meal and cottonseed hulls as the
chief feeding stuffs, would lead us to
believe, If we did not know otherwise,
that alfalfa or any other legume
could not be raised. We know that
cowpeas, soy beans, lespedeza, al
falfa and the like grow like weeds in
the South and 1t Is one Of the mys.
teries Of the world why these crops
are not more generally grown, says
Hoard's Dairyman. Cows do not do
their hest work when fod large
amount Of cottonseed meal and when
cottonseed hulls form the entire
roughage Of the ration, but they will
milk splondidly when fed with good
alfalfa or other legume hay and corn
silage.
