When bicycles and automobiles |

one to smile, but they have proved the
best. Now a bicycle or an automobile |
with high wheels would look queer in-

Benefits of Cattle Feeding.
Cattle feeding will enable the man-
ager to dispose of his surplus feed in
a profitable manner and afford more
barnyard manure with which to enrich
his land. It will also be the means of
diversified farming, in which rotations
may be planned, not only to supply a
variety of feed for the stock, but also
with special reference to improving
the fertility of the soil.

With Young Animals.
Some of the advantages of having
| pigs farrowed in the spring, fed well
during the summer and marketed in
ood season in the fall, are that near
ly all of the feeding is done In warm
weather and it requires less food for
a pound of gain in warm weather than
in cold
The gain is greater in proportion to
the feed consumed on the young ani
mal than on the older ones. By re
ducing thé period of feeding to nine
months or less, the risk of loss by dis
ease or other causes is greatly less:

Colt Neglect.
A very common neglect of the feeder
in his failure to keep the colt growing
as it should the first year of its life.
Many horses that go to market each
year lacking size to qualify as draft
ers might easily have been put in that
class if properly fed during the first
year of their lives. If the colt is prop:
erly fed the first year of its life, the
ration is not quite so exacting ag to
variety thereafter, but should gradu
ally be increased a little until the colt
is matured.
