Cost of Working
Horses on Farms
Department of Agriculture
Survey Places Figure at
$100 Yearly.

tHrspArsd by the United States Department
OF Agriculture.)
The cost of using work horses on
corn-belt farms In 1921 was about $10C
per head, according to a survey made
by the United States Department oil
Agriculture. The total yearly cost OF
keeping six horses on farms of ap
proximately 100 acres amounted tc
about 5000. Feed and bedding was
about 80 per cent of the total cost OF
maintenance. Other costs In order OF
Importance were chores, interest, sta.
bling. depreciation, harness costs, mis-
cellaneous costs. and shoeing. The
total gross cost was $10608 per head
from which deduction of Se.S7 was
made for the manure produced, leav.
Ing net cost Of S9o.21.
Exclusive Of pasture, the annual ra.
ton per head consisted Of 40 bushels
Of corn, 26 bushels Of oats, 1.8 tons OF
hay and 1.6 tons of straw and corr
stover. During the year. e6 hours Of
man labor were required to care for
each horse. The average farm value OF
the work stock was about S123 pei
head. Actual cash outlay and salable
feeds, including corn. oats, hay, straw;
depreciation, shoeing and miscellan-
eous cash costs, amounted to S64 per
horse, or about go per cent of the total
cost
Average Work In Year.
During the year each horse worked
an average of 723 hours. On the basis
Of ten-hour work day, the average
cost was S1.37 per day. or 1877 cents
per hour of actual work done The
horses on some farms worked from
two to three times as many hours as
those on other farms. Such variations
indicate the degree Of efficiency with
which horses are employed on different
farms, and have considerable effect on
the cost per hour of work performed
The point Is made. however, that, while
1t is not always possible to keep the
horses at work continuously, nor ad-
visable TO do so for the mere sake OF
keeping them busy, too many horses or
lack Of productive work will invari.

NEWLY DISCOVERED NEWSPAPER WRITINGS
RED CONLIN's ELOQUENCE.

" HEY were speaking of the
power of great orators, and
L. each one had something to
say of his especial favorite.
The drummer was for backing
Bourke Cochran for oratory
against the world, the young law
yer thought the suave Ingersoll
the most persuasive pleader, and
the insurance agent advanced the
claims of the magnetic w. c. P.
Breckenridge.
"They all talk some," said the
old cattle man, who was putting
his pipe and listening, but they
couldn't hold candle to Red
Conlin, that run cattle below San
tone in 80. Ever know Red?"
Nobody had had the honor.
Red Conlin was a natural or
ator; he wasn't overcrowded with
book learnin', but his words come
free and easy, like Whiskey out
of a new faucet from full bar
rel. He was always in a good
humor and smilin' clear across
his face, and If he asked for a
hot biscuit he did 1t like he was
pleadin' for his life. He was one
man who had the gift Of CAB,
and it never failed him.
II remember once, in Asascosa
county, the boss thieves worried
us right smart. There was a
gang of 'em, and they got run
min off a caballaro every week
or so. Some Of us got together
and raised a pint of order and
concluded to sustain it. The
head of the gang was fellow
named MullenS, and tough cuss
he was. Fight, too, and warnt
particular when. Twenty Of us
saddled up and went into camp,
loaded down with six shooters and
Winchesters. That Mullens had
the nerve to try to cut off our
saddle horses the first night, but
we heard him, got mounted, and
went hot on his trail. There
was five or six others with Null
lens.
1T was dark as thunder, and
pretty soon we run one of them
down. His horse was lame, and
we knew it was Mullens by his
big white hat and black beard.
We didn't hardly give him time
to speak, we was so mad, but in
two minutes there was a rope
round his neck and Mullens was
swung up at last. We waited
about ten minutes till he was
still. and then some fellow strikes
a match out of curiosity and
screeches out:
"'Gosh almighty, boys, we've
strung up the wrong man.
"And we had.
I'VE re-opened the fellows case
and give him a new trial, and
acquitted him, but it was too late
to do him any good. He was as
dead as Davy Crockett.
1T was Sandy McNeagh, one
of the quietest, straightest and
best respected men in the county,
and what was worse, hadn't been
married but about three months.
Whatever are we to do?' says
l. and it sure was a case to think
about.
