FARM NOTES.
—In nearly every case, in a horse silky
and wavy hair on the indicates a

poor quality of underneath that
To
—In breeding mares, keep the same
horse until the young mares are old
to breed, then select another horse
of the same type. Changing from one to
another results in a nondescript assort-
ment of progeny that never gets a breeder
anywhere.
—Rams should be purchased from old
established flocks which have earned a
reputation. Good breeding tracing
for many generations is to be found
in such a flock. Such rams are very
likely to prove themselves to be reliable
and impressive sires.
—It is sometimes just as important to
retain moisture in the soil as it is at other
times to get rid of it. This may be done
by keeping the soil constantly loose with
the cultivator, the fine soil on the surface
serving as a covering or mulch and pre-
venting rapid evaporation.
—Considerable loss is occasioned on
many farms every year by allowing crops
to become too ripe before harvesting.
‘This is especially true of grass or clover,
or any intended for hay or as a sub-
stitute. ith grasses when the seed be-
gins to form 3g and with grain crops
when the grain begins to harden, is the
best stage to harvest.
—Where there are barns and equip-
ment for keeping them comfortable it
postage pays to shear the breeding ewes
ore they lamb. Often a feverish con-
dition immediately after lambing causes
them to slip their wool, with the result
that the fleece is broken and the amount
of wool secured is less than if the shear-
ing were done before lambing.
—To keep onion sets through the win-
jet is father risky business for ong } hav-
ng no experience or proper con ces.
Probably the safest way is to put them in
cold storage where the air is dry and the
temperature kept close to the freezing
point, say 34 d The following
method has been practiced by gardeners
before cold storage was so common: A
ha er of straw was spread on the floor of
a loft, the same covered with sacks; then
adhe sets about Sis & eight inches
keep perfectly dry. sets
were then allowed to freeze, and when
thoroughly frozen were covered with two
or more feet of straw to keep them frozen
until spring. The sets should not be dis-
turbed while frozen. The above method
sometimes failed owing to some long
spells of open weather, when the sets
were thawed and frozen several times.
They can also be kept in racks made of
lath about two inches deep, in a cool, dry
cellar, in fairly good condition. Onions
should never be kept in barrels, or in any
large bulk.
—One of the subjects pressing upon the
attention of the modern live stock grower
is that of placing his live stock under
sanitary conditions favorable to maintain-
ing health and vigor. It is becoming
recognized that ral sanitary condi-
tions, good or Bo roa mach todo i
repressing or propagating of specific
live stock Tr just as it has
an accepted doctorine that cities po
camps, or other places where large bodies
of men are assembled, must be kept
clean. Probably good sanitary conditions
are nowhere more necessary
swine, for it is with respect to hogs that
the idea has most prevailed that it don't
make much difference how they are dhe
but that they could thrive even amid
most filthy surroundings.
greater mistake than ts, and the A
annual losses of hogs prove it. This
don’t mean that filth creates cholera
at all, or that it 80 a phn 3 as
investigators say it is; it simply means
that germ diseases are more prevalent,
more malignant and more fatal when the
sanitation is bad than when it is good.
It is very much to the swine growers’
interest, therefore, to maintain cleanli-
ness inthe hog quarters by some means.
How this is to be done it isnot our pur-
pose here to attempt to say. Different
circumstances will require a different
class of measures.
—In many localities it is more difficult
to find a good type of beef steer than it
was twenty-five years ago. This may be
accounted for in two ways. In the first
place, the devel t of the range coun-
try undermined for the time being breed-
ing operations in the Central West, while
in the second place the development of
the dairy industry has meant the intro-
duction of a type of cattle that are not

Do We Dodge Death?
Can we mortiis always be trusted
to do the right thing? The fear of
death is general. Life is sacrificed
every hour because the rules of health
are not obeyed. Death is the one great
monster of dread and from whom all
flee. Yet how many safeguard their
living in such a way as to avert his
coming? The rules of health are vio-
lated because of the immunity we feel,
but finally the penalty must be paid.
No argument is needed to enforce the
lesson. Everybody knows it. The rules
of right living are clear, explicit. Vice, |
intemperance. wrong living, overeat-
ing as wall as overdrinking, continue
to pay their tribute to the undertaker
and the graveyard.—Leslle's.

—A safe rule to follow in handling
horses is never to trust them too far. It
is never safe to leave a horse without ty-
