EXCELLENT HINTS ON HORSES
Intelligent Management Is Essential
Point-Don't Sacrifice Quality to
Size-Time for Water.

The essential point in using pure
bred draft mares on the farm is intel.
ligent management
The last 200 pounds We can put on
a young draft horse is the most profit
able 200 pounds Of meat we can pro-
duce on the farm.
No drawing card holds out quite
such strong inducements to good hired
men as the farm that maintains high
class work horses.
1t is a great mistake to sacrifice
quality to size.
A horse is worth just what he can
endure for his owner.
Many farm horses get more hay
than is good for them 1t is a poor
plan to keep their feed racks or
full of hay all the time.
A horse wateEed the last thing at
night and the first thing in the morn
ing is not going TO take too much.

AFTER THE COMMISSIONS.

The state legislature now has under
consideration one of the administra-
ton measures that proposes to con-
solidate about twenty of the state
boards and commissions into four de
PAYMENTS, which would do away with
a very large number of officials and
employers, all of whom are drawing
fat salaries, and at the same time
handle the states affairs with as
great or greater efficiency than at
present. 1t is a we'll known fact to
the well informed that in many in
stances the work of these commissions
overlaps and several men go chasing
over the state making investigation
of things where one man could attend
to them all equally as well, and thus
this proposed telescoping and con-
solidation of the various bureaus
seems to be wise and business-like
plan, which it is said will result in a
saving of hundreds of thousands of
dollars to the state as whole. In
vestigation of conditions shows that
there has been gross waste and ex-
travagance in many Of the state s
affairs and the administration has
a big job ahead of it in attempting
to place things on an economical bust
ness basis.

$375OO OF Illegal interest will be
paid over TO Vanderbilt as a result
