Colt shows are proving Il great aid
III stimulating interest in the breeding
OF hjgh-cluSS horses. Next to commit
nifty horse breeders associations and
state stallion license laws there is, per-
hapS, no other factor that will so ma
tcrjally assist in the improvement Of
the horses Of the country. It IS only
i'll recent years that impetus has been
given to this very important feature in
connection with the rapidly growing
movement for better horses.
At the present time colt shows are
an annual event in many districts of Il
number Of the states, chiefly where
stallion license laws are in effect. AS
an illustration Of the popularity Of
these shows and the keen interest man
Tested in them by the people Of the
farming communities, it is reported
that in 1915 no less than % colt shows
were held In the state Of Minnesota
alone. In some sections these shows
are held in the spring, but in a ma
j0rity Of cases the fall of the year is
selected. The latter season appears
to be preferable for q number of rea-
sons. At that time the heaviest part
of the farm work is about over; and
with more time to spare, farmers will
take a greater interest in the event and
the object for which it is held.
Feature Of County Event.
These exhibitions are invariably held
independent of the county fair, al
though there is apparently no reason
why a show Of this kind could not be
made an important and outstanding
feature Of the annual county event.
In some instances these shows were
inaugurated with simply one class for
grade draft foals and have gradually
grown until The classification is almost
as complete as that Of the state fair.

good dairy cows have large barrel
and a large capacity udder. The udder
should be attached high behind and ex-
tend we'll up toward the belly. The
width Of the udder should be Gs great
as possible. One should look carefully
for the mammary development in the
dairy cow. This consists Of large veins,
which extend along the abdomen from
the udder towards the front limbs.
The veins should be large, crooked,
branching out, extending we'll towards
the fwnt legs and entering the body
through large holes called milk wells.
Such I cow should pay her way and
produe the largest amount of milk
from given quantity Of food.

BULB CULTURE EASY
BY ELIZABETH VAN BENTHUYsEN.

One of the chief delights Of the work
Of raising dubious plants is that at
most any novice ought to make sue
cess of the venture without trouble.
There is no particularly intricate de-
tail 10 master and no unusual condi-
ton to face.
a sun parlor, or yet the south window
to make the bulbs do their duty. In
the ordinary house the flowers will
thrive on precious little care. OF
course if the house, or room, has a
lower temperature than the ordinary
living room heat the plants profit. The
advantage is particularly shown after
the bulbs begin to form tops because
the sturdy growth and longer life Of
the individual flower is assured.
In the high temperature the blooms
will come sooner, but they will not last
so long as those that thrive in tenn
perature of from five to ten degrees
less and if they can be kept between
so and 60 degrees the advantage is still
more marked.
The novice in bulb culture has the
pleasing assurance that he does not
have to feed the plants. This Is one
reason why good results can be ex'
pected without expert knowledge. The
man who grew the bulbs attended to
this detail, for Us matter OF fact
the bulbs are only specialized buds
charged with food for the reproduction
of the plants that they contain In their
elementary form. The novice should
supply the conditions that are favor
able to growth.
These are notable medium for the
development of roots, such as sand
moss or soil, a favorable temperature
and, at the beginning, darkness.
The question Of fertility need not be
considered. Bulbs will grow even
among charcoal or pebbles If the other
conditions are propitious. The most
important thing is to choose good
bulbs. This, Of course, is a matter
largely of confidence In the character
Of the dealer who sells them. The
price is no criterion because some OF

PRODUCTIVE PERIOD OF EVE
Does Her Best at From Three to Six
Years of Age-keep Her While
Teeth Remain Good.

The most productive period OF the
average ewes life is from three to
six years of age. AS a general propo-
sitioa, keep the eve as long as the
teeth remain good and she is produc-
ing lambs regularly.
Of course, if sheep are kept contlnu-
ously on the same pasture, they are
liable to stomach-worm infection, but
such infection more often proves serl'
GUS in the case Of young lambs than
with older sheep.

poisoning it is by accident only. The
cheap milk cans are easily indented
when the tin begins to crack, leaving
assures for milk and water and acid.
Under such conditions, the tin peels
and falls off, and the can quickly be-

which were covered with lead patches
over two inches in diameter.
The only way to prevent the use or
unsanitary and dangerous milk cans
Is by close inspection on the part OF
the creameries and condensaries and
city dealers. Cans should be exam
med frequently and all rusty or broken
vessels should be promptly con-
drmnad.

PROPER TRAINING FOR COLT
Accustom 1t to Eating Grain Before
Taking From Mother-Should
Be Halter Broken.

We never yet have weaned a colt
but that it was used to eating grain
before being taken from its mother,
consequently there was practically no
loss in flesh or growing, says a writer
in an exchange.
We also have each colt halter bro
ken by the time it Is ready to be
weaned.
This thing of letting colts run until
two and three years old before putting
q halter on them is not good business.
The Caldwell watchman. (Columbia, La.) 1885-1946, 1916-12-15

However, such large classification is
not possible in most localities, as the
larger amount of money necessary can
not be raised. The best plan, and the
most beneficial one, perhaps, would be
to hold an exhibition for weanlings and
yearlings only. II the community or
district has a fairly large number OF
purebred horses, separate classes could
be provided for purebreds and grades
The question Of having classes for
both light and heavy horses will de-
pend upon whether sufficient attention
is being given to the production of both
classes.
Financing an Exhibition.
In securing the necessary funds TO
finance such an exhibition as a colt
show O number Of different plans have
been suggested. In Minnesota one
show is financed by the stallion own
ers, each giving $25 in cash prizes, to
be divided among the colts sired by
his stallion. Another plan is to have
fine County Horse Breeders association
or the various farmers clubs contrib
ute sufficient money to finance the
show. while still another scheme is for
the local bank or banks to furnish the
money for premiums and other ex-
penses.
However, the most popular and COM
mon method is to go among the busl'
ness men Of the community and secure
subscriptions in sufficient amount to
pay all expenses of the SHOW
All premiums should be designated
by neat, but inexpensive ribbons on
which are printed the name OF the
show, the year, and the classes TO
which they belong.
Suitable Trophy.
While the premiums in the Individual
c}osses should consist of cash awards,
Il is suggested that the championship
nrize consist of a suitable trophy rath'

RESISTANCE TO DISEASE

Debility is a loss of vitality, not
affecting any one part OF the body par
ticularly but the system generally. It
is dangerous because it reduces the
body's resistance to disease.
When debility follows acute diseases,
convalescence is slow and the strength
does not return as it should. An at
tack of the grip often results in debility
that persists for months. Everybody
recognizes that the remedy for debility
is to build up the blood because the
blood goes to every part of the body and
an improvement in its condition is
quickly felt throughout the system.
The problem in every case is to find
something that will enrich the blood.
