Use, Two-Row Cultlvator.
In many sections of the country the
use of the two-row cultivator has
thereby utilizing more horse power
and performing more work with the
same labor. The use of this imple-
ment should be extended where condi-
tons warrant On the average corn
belt farm more horse power per man
can be utilized in many instances. The
use Of four or five horses on the dou-
BILE gang pillow would accomplish q
much greater amount of work than is
now performed per man on a majority
of farms where the twO-horse walking
pillow is used. In the preparation Of
the seedbed one man can readily ham
die four or six horses hitched to the
section harrow to which additional
sections have been added, thereby in
creasing the amount Of land narrowed
with the same labor. In the harvest
ing of crops horse power may be uti-
liked more efficiently in many sections
by the use Of more horse power per
man.
Cooperative use Of machinery In
harvesting the wheat and corn crop
would utilize horse power and labor
to advantage by the exchange Of labor
among small farmers.
Use of Manure spreader.
Hauling out manure on the average
farm as it is produced, instead Of al
lowing 1t to accumulate around the
buildings and hauling 1t out when con
venient, would be an economical prac-
tice. Where the expenditure is JUST.
fable the use of a manure spreader
would distribute the manure to better
advantage and effect considerable saw
ing in labor over the old method Of
hauling out and spreading by hand

More efficient utilization of horse
power on the average farm will assist
in q large measure In saving labor.
The necessary horse power Is usually
available for the efficient operation
of the average American farm, but this
power is not always utilized or dis
tributed to greatest advantage.
The practice of blowing as much
land as possible in the late fall rather
than in the spring, when work is press
ing, will result in labor saving, as this
method utilities both horse power and
labor at season when 1t would other
wise be practically idle.
In practically the entire cotton belt
the one-horse breaking pillow is in gen
crab use. This requires the use of one
man per horse in the operation of the
farm. By the use of the two-horse
breaking pillow the same labor could
break more land and at the same time
make q better seeded.
Labor Is Plentiful.
Planting and seeding are still done
by hand In some parts of the cotton
belt. and the distribution of fertilizers
and manure Is largely done in the
same manner. This custom has pre-
vailed no doubt because the labor has
been plentiful. But the use of horse
planters, grain drills, fertilizer dis
tributors, and manure spreadersl
where the amout of land under culti-
walton would justify the expenditure
for the implements, great saving OF
labor could be effected
In the cultivation of crops in many
parts of the South the use Of the one
horse pillow and sweep prevails, and
because of the inefIiciency Of these i'm
plements the crops must be hoed al
most continually In order to keep the
crop clean. This method could be Inn
proved upon by using the light harrow
or weeder when the crop is young and
later the two-hOrSe Single-roW cult

MANAGEMENT OF CALVES ON
PASTURE.

With good pastures the roughage
portion of the calves ration may be
eliminated. The grain portion OF the
ration in some cases may be slightly
reduced, although as rule the
calves should be given all the grain
they will eat While on pasture. 1t ia
seldom advisable to carry calves
through the entire finishing period
on grass. A better finish is obtained
when they are dry fed during the lat
ter portion of the period. 1t Is never
advisable to change calves from the
dry lot to pastures when on full
feed. 1t is safe, however, to change
from pastures to the dry lot during
this period.
When pastures are very good some
trouble may be experienced in get
ting the calves to consume enough
grain for the best results. In such
cases 1t is generally better to keen
them away from the grass during a
portion of each day.
In sections where winter pastures
can be grown the feeder should make
a strong effort to provide such past-
ure during the cold season. as tho
green feeds greatly reduce the cost
OF both growing the calves and fat
tening them.
