GENERAL CARE AND
FEEDING OF HORSES
Farmers Often Give Animals Too
Much Attention Spring Is
Busiest Time of Year.

tBy J. b. ANDREWS. Illinois Expert
ment Station.)
Much attention should be given to
the general care and feeding Of work
horses. However. these factors are
the least in need of remedying than
any of the others that enter into the
cost Of horse labor. Farmers ofttimes
give their horses too much feed and
care, which increases the expense and
does not add to their comfort or eff
cheney.
The number of horses kept and the
amount of work per horse are the d.
rect cause OF the varying costs OF
horse labor and they in turn depend
directly upon the system Of farming.
All farm labor is divided into two
principal kinds. They are the fixed,
which must be done at certain time,
and the nonfixed, which may be done
at odd times. For example. the final
preparation of the seed beds, planting
and cultivating are operations upon
the corn crop for which the time Is
fixed, while blowing, hauling manure
and fertilizer are nonfixed as to time.
Husking corn is semifxed, as 1t may
be done any time before the snow falls.
Cutting corn for fodder or for the silo
Is fixed labor. The farmer should have
his work planned ahead so that he
will not have any Of his non or semi
fixed operations to do when he must
be doing something that is absolutely
necessary. Flowing is a good example
of nonfixed labor. Many discussions
have been held to settle the relative
value of spring and fall blowing from
the standpoint of fertility, but few
have considered either as to the utili-
zation Of farm labor.
In the fall there are times when
there is not much fixed labor 70 be
done. Other conditions being favora-
BILE, this is the time to plow. The
spring is the busiest time of the year
for horses and all work possible should
be done at other times. Every farmer
keeps a few extra horses for q whole
year for a few weeks Of extra work in
spring. All Of these extra horses can
not be eliminated. but II the work was
80 arranged the number could be re-
duced and a great saving result.

TIME BEARS WITNESS.


The T:mes-Recorder always takes
pleasure in referring to its news SER
vice-the Associated Press. 1t is
termed as the geratest gathering
agency on earth, and undenied SUI
premacy gains this distinction. But,
always verifcation of a contention is
appreciated, and we herewith print a
news dispatch in today's papers:
NEW YORK, July 3.-After twenty
three years of unsuccessful effort to
establish proprietary news gather
ing and distributing organization in
opposition to the cooperative form of
the associated Press, The New York
San was sold today to Frank A. Mum
sey, member of the Associated Press
and beginning Monday next will no
longer try to gather it's own news and
will receive the service of the domin-
ant organization. In announcing the
purchase MIR. Munsey will say in to-
morrow's issue of The Sun:
"The tremendous advantage of The
Sun can be appreciated only by news
paper men. Through it The Sun Sc
cures a morning membership in the
Associated Press, and there is no 9th :
er possible way to secure such a mem
bership except through the purchase
of newspaper owning one.
Through a mix-up that occurred
some years ago, when the associated
Press was reorganized, The Sun did
not associate itself with all the other
morning papers of the town in the re-
organization. AS a consequence, ever
since then it has been compelled to
gather its news alone and at a vast
annual expenditure in excess of the
cost of receiving it through the Asso-
ciated Press.
Moreover it is not possible for a
single newspaper to compete in news
gathering with the Associated Press,
which is the peerless news gathering
organization of all the world. With
the Associated Press membership
which The Sun secures through this
merger, it will be equipped for better
work so far as concerns its news ser
vice than at any time in its history
better than IN the old days when il
was member of press association,
because the Associated Press of today
is incomparably better and bigger
than any previous news gathering or
ganization"
The price of The Sun will be re-
duced to one cent.

THE FAR MLOAN ACT.

Several criticisms are being made
throughout the country of the Federal
Farm Loan Act now before congress
Some of these take the general form
that the act, if it becomes law, wild
not accomplish much of anything to-
ward solving the financial problems
OF the farming business of the coun-
try. Others though comparatively
few, except from banking interests
themselves, take the general form
that nothing is needed, that our pres
ent financial system and methods are
competent to solve all the legitimate
financial needs of our farming bust
ness. To answer such criticisms as
these we take the liberty of quoting
by Senator Duncan U. Fletcher, of
Florida, one of the originators and
supporters of the act:
IF every national banking associa-
ton so authorized (by the federal re-
serve act, which authorized nationa!
banks to loan money on real estate
under certain conditions) took ad-
vantage Of this privilege there would
be available for farm loans not ex-
ceeding $45OOO0,OOO for the entire
country, whereas the outstanding form
mortgages now exceed $4,000, 000,0 900
(or more than four times this
amount)"
And again, in another place. 'The
best thought of two commissions; the
earnest consideration of two standing
committees of congress; the careful
examination and Interchange of views
by the governors of the state; the
deep interest and investigation of the
farmers of the country; the PATRIOTS
concern and conscientious efforts of
public spirited citizens, anxious to
promote a sound agriculture all
these have contributed toward reach
ing a wise conclusion as to the pre-
else language which shouldd be EN-
ployed in placing on the statute book
the law that would accomplish the
results all should solemnly and keen
ly desire.
Such a law is now before us. II
may not be absolutely perfect. 1t is
Gre thing to know what is wanted and
it is a somewhat different thing to
express in terms of statute what is

it is possible we may find OCCASION fer

ditions into the ideal. It's promised

ent in character, l am convinced will

PARIS, June 26. - The number Of shots that can be fired from one of the French 3-inch guns before it is worn out has, in at least one instance, been found to be as high as 1S,S30. according to the actual count kept by young artilleryman who has sent these figures in from the front. While the three-incher was known to be a robust cannon, the theoretical esti- mate before the war was that a thou sand shots would probably be the limit of it's efficiency.

WILD ANIMALS IN.
 KOREA KILL
 MANY

SEOUL. Korea, June 1. - Cores pondenae Of the Associated Press --- Accustomed as Koreans are to tho at tacks of wild animals in the mcHa- tains, they have been aston'shed to learn that during the last year 120 people were killed by beasts and that over 5000 domestic animals were either killed or injured. This havoc was wrought by tigers, leopards, bears and Korean wolves, but 1t was the wolf, according to official statis- tics that did the greatest amount of harm. It is estimated that these fe- rocious creatures slew 113 persons and injured 50, besides killing or in turing 517 cattle and 1,519 other do mestlc animals.
 The Korean wolf. which is official ly known as the neuktai, is a power ful animal Of the canine species, a little larger but longer and thinner than the native Korean dog. In color it is brown and gray. It possesses piercing eyes and in face of danger or while capturing prey shows won derful agility, hiding itself in under brush. jumping over high cliffs or swiftly swimming across rivers and lakes. In attacking a pony or COW it will leap upon the victims flank and kill instantly by tearing open some vital part. In attacking a man it will follow him for a time and Oc- casionally leap over his head. seek ing to unnerve eim and cause him to fall to the ground, when it will im- mediately attack and kin Oftentimes it will summon it's mates to assist in attacking. There are instances of where a wolf has carried off a big boy for a considerable distance or where it has jumped over a high wall with a pig in it's mouth.
 The Korean authorities are exert ing every effort to eXter1inate the animal, and rewards are offered for each wolf that is killed
