comparative costs. Then the diff
erence is so strongly in favor of the
horse that they set up a wild clamor
for heavy drafters and light wagon
horses, the price scars owing to the
scarcity, and the market situation
reacts on the farmer because these
men who cannot get animals of the
right type are practically forced into
the use of mechanical units.
1.-THE only remedy is intelligent
and extensive breeding of draft
horses and mules. Enough Of the
wagon horses and chunks will come
along of themselves without breed
ing in that direction. But when use
and breeding of good horses is re-
established on sane basis, the
farms will be better powered, city
concerns will have more efficient and
dependable power at less cost, and
both the farm producer and the city
consumer will have more money in
his pocket at the time of yearly
reckoning.
'"The sacrifice has been needless
and deplorable, but I am sincerely
confident that the loss has jolted
those concerned out of their apathy
and that next season will see a whole
some increase of intelligent horse
breeding"

the agricultural extension division at
University Farm, says that a poultry
keeper at Barnum received an aver
age of Ii eggs in given 30-day
period from a flock of 375 pullets.
He put in electric lights, turning
them on from dawn a. m. until
daylight and from shutdown until 9
p. M, and in the next 80 days reaped
a harvest at Is eggs to the bird.
With eggs at 80 cents a dozen, this
poultryman certainly had something
to show for his enterprise.
Mr.. Chapman is using artificial
light with excellent results in his
poultry houses near University Farm.
He doubts whether the average yearly
production will be materially stimu-
lated, but has satisfied himself that
a lighting system makes for more
eggs in the winter time when prices
are highest. The longer working day
means more eggs at the right time.

Hen Losing 8-Hour Dav

A neat trick is now being played
on the hen in many parts of Min
nesota. Poultrymen here and there
have entered the highly specialized
class, in that they are stimulating
egg production, when eggs are worth
the most, by Illuminating poultry
houses and thus frightening the
working day of the flock. Possibly
the hen might call it mean trick,
if her viewpoint could be determined;
but as she is given more time in
which to eat and exercise diversions
in which she delights-no particular
sympathy is being wasted upon her.
