it has been much higher than that. The
present method means that the people
are getting great returns for the money

greatest drawback, and in most instan-
ces it amounts to a curse. is to give a
boy or girl a lot of money while in
school. Indulgent parents ruin the
chances of their children in this way.
They learn the bad habit of spending;
they indulge in carousals and social

Corn Silage For Horses.

Corn aud ~cottonseed meal furnish the
cheapest grain ration in the Cotton
Belt, and when fed in the proportion OF
one of ~cottonseed meal to five parts of
corn to colts, and one of c~ottonseed
meal to six or seven of corn to brood
mares. the results are entirely salts
factory. ~
Oats always add to the cost of the
ration, but it is not necessary to tell
any horseman that oats are a splendid
feed for horses; and still experiments
with army horses at Fort Riley. Kan
-sas, at the Pennsylvania and other Ex-
pertinent Stations, show that horses do
as well, can work as hard and remain
just as spirited, or corn and cottonseed
meal as on oats. If oats are t. be used
with silage | would feed five pounds
each of corn and oats and one part of
cottonseed meal by weight.
Of course. the amount to feed will
depend upon the individual animal and
what is expected of it. But from one
and one-half to two and one-half pounds
of silage and a little hay, and from
~three-fourths to one and one-fourth
pounds of this grain mixture for, every
100, pounds of the animals weight, will
usually give the desired results.
There is some prejudice against silage
and cottonseed meal for feeding horses
but when good, sound silage is fed there
is no basis for this prejudice. 1t is
quite probable that horses doing hard
work, and especially those doing fast
work, would not do well on a large
amount of silage, just as they do moi
do well on a large amount of grass; but
for brood mares and colts good silage is
equal If not superior to any other feed.
