BEST TIME TO CUT COWPEAS
Hay Is Hard to Cure on Account of
Thick Stems and Thin Leaves
Bunch in Small Cocks.

By J, F. NICHOLSON. Agronomist. Ari-
iona Experiment Station)
Cowpea hay is very hard to cure
on account of the thick stems and
very thin leaves While the stems are
drying the leaves are apt TO shatter
off and be lost. However, if the cow
peas are cut about the time the first
pods are ripe, and punched into small
cocks, where they are left TO cure. a
minimum amount of loss will be sus-
tanned.

Burden of Improvement.

The main burden of the improve
ment Of the horse-breeding industry
rests upon the mare owner. As long
as these owners will patronize inferior
unsound and ill-bred stations because
their services are a few dollars less
than the well-bred, well-nurtured stall
lion, with good individuality and with
greater capabilities of transmitting
good qualities to their offspring, little
progress can be made in horse breed
ing.
Farmers raising colts do not real
lie that the return To them Will be
five or ten fold, or even greater, when
the colt reaches maturity or is put
upon the market. if it is sired by a

Like Produces Like.

I'm selecting breeding stock. keep in
mind the principle of breeding that
like produces like. The principle ap-
plies to the brood mare as we'll as the
stallion. Bad qualities in the mare are
as likely to appear in the colt as are
bad qualities possessed by the stall
lion. The influence of the mare in the
transmission of qualities to the foal is,
as rule. very much underestimated
and sometimes entirely ignored. The
farmer who keeps worthless mares for
breeding will not be able to compete
with his neighbor who keeps only the
best brood mares, even though they
both use the same stallion. The mare
has as much influence upon the colt
as the sire. Once in while you may
get very fine colt from an inferior
mare but this is very rarely the ease.
and no one can afford to breed horses
for this exceptional chance of getting
n good one

RAIL VALUATION
TO STAY THE SAME
State Board Of Equalization Not in
Favor of Making Advance
in Figures.
TO HOLD OTHER TAXES DOWN
tFrom . slaff corre.pondent. }

From STAFF Correspondsnt)
Lincoln, May Especial No
material increase will be made in the
assessed valuation Of railroad prop
erty in Nebraska this year, while the
valuations Of other property will be
held down as much as possible Final
action in the matter will be taken at
a meeting Of the State Board Of
Equalization to be held Wednesday
morning.
A meeting Of the equalization board
held this morning brought out that
none OF the members Of the board
thought htere should be a material in
crease in the valuation Of the rail
roads. .
Tax Commissioners A. W. Scrib-
ner OF the Union Pacific and r. y.
Pollard Of the Burlington appeared
before the board in opposition to any
increase,
Farm Values Higher.
State Auditor Smith has collected
figures from twentysone counties
showing an increase in valuations and
taxes on farm lands from 1910 10
1915, These showed in some instances
the taxes have been more than
doubled. Railroad companies have
likewise been increased although not
in the same ratio.
The board took the position that
the value Of land and agricultural
products has increased more rapidly
in the last two years than the yaluc
of railroad property and that an in
crease in railroad assessments would
not necessarily follow the raising Of
land valuations this year. However,
the board members said they would
like 10 preserve a parity between the
different kinds OF property as near as
possible.
How to Avoid Difficulty.
In lieu Of raising the railroads two
other ideas were suggested. II was
suggested the board in equalizing
real estate assessments could lower
the valuations in counties which ap-
pear TO be much higher than the aver
age and thus bring the total down
somewhere near what il was<in 1915.
The other provided for a reduction OF
the state levy again.
Object TO Cutting Levy.
One objection was raised 10 low
crlnR the state leyy-that il would all
have to come out of the state general
fund The law fixes the tax az "a
mills for the support Of the state uni-
ycrsity and "a Of mill for the sup
port Of the-Normal schools. All the
board can do in relation to a lower
state levy will be 10 cut down the
general fund tax below 4 mills and
State Treasurer Hall takes the view
that this would not produce sufficient
money on which to run the govern
ment.
The total assessed valuation in
1915 was $4s7, 10000 in round nun
bcrs. This year II may reach $500
100000. II il does the board will prob
ably feel justified in reducing the real
estate valuations as this form Of
property bears the brunt Of the in
crease,
