RAISE MULES.

O. J. Kenton’s, of near Surrey, reputation for keeping the best individual and collective lot of stallions and jacks is well known. The best evidence of this is the get. Mr. Kenton has the best lot of colts and young mules to be seen in Jasper county. One pair of mules, coming four years old, which had never been harnessed, sold for $425 last winter and 10 less than a year brought SI,OOO. A few more choice mares will be served this season From Kentucky Morgan 4717, a beautiful chestnut, and Richmond Squirrel, a stylish, rich brown Kentucky roadster, Marcus, a dark brown 1800 pound Belgian, James Madison No. 287 and Henry Clay a 16-hand jack, make a combination that can not be equaled any where in northern Indiana. Nothing raised on the farm can show a profit equal to Mr. Kenton’s mules, sales of which are mentioned above. Horeefhen and farmers will profit by noting these facts.

HINTS FOR FARMERS

Treating Overheated Horses. As soon as a horse gives evidence hf suffering from heat exhaustion un hitch him and remove the harness Spray him along the back with ice cold water and apply it freely to the poll with a hose or a sponge. Let him stand out of doors in a shady place, and with such treatment a recovery will usually come quickly. If the exhaustion has become more pronounced and the horse’s eyes are bloodshot, his nostrils fiery'red and his pulse is bounding strong and fast, give him, In addition to the treatment mentioned, four ounces of good whisky in a pint of water or one ounce of aromatic spirits of ammonia and two ounces of spirits of nitrous ether in one quart of water, repeating the dose hourly until the pulse becomes normal, the horse bolds his head up and stops panting.—Farm Progress. Cure For Curl Leaf of Peach. Professor Taft of the Michigan Agricultural college has announced an important discovery in that curl leaf, which has been so destructive among peaches for several years, can be successfully treated by spraying. He estimates that fully nine-tenths of the crop of Elberta peaches are annually destroyed by curl leaf aud might have been saved by spraying. The solution used is one pound of copper sulphate dissolved In twentyfive gallons of water. The tree should be covered with the spray, as a single bud escaping treatment might spread the disease. It has been found that spraying with the solution in the fall Is as effective as when it is used later. It may be used at any time after the leaves fall till just before the buds begin to swell In the spring. Pink Eye In Horses. ■ Dr. Smead, the well known writer on veterinary topics, describes Dink ey“ In horses as follows: “Pink eye in horses is an Influenza accompanied with a fever, more or less inflammation of the membranes of the eyes and eyelids, which causes them to take on a red or pink color; hence the name pink eye is given the disease. The remedy is good care, keeping the animal in a semidarkened, pure aired stable, feeding on bran tnashes and boiled oats, with plenty of pure water to drink. Bathe tbe eyes with warm water made brackish with salt, and to every pint of the water add two ounces of extract of witch hazel. Horses thus treated usually recover in about nine days to two weeks. There Is no preventive. It is the result of atmospheric conditions.”—Farmers Advocate. - X Rye as a Feed For Hogs. Professor Smith, the Nebraska authority on live stock feeding, says: “1 have had experience in feeding rye to fatteqing bogs. Rye alone makes a fairly good fattening ration, though it is less satisfactory than either corn or wheat. In tests made at the Nebraska station we have found that rye has a feeding value very nearly 10 per cent below wheat find practically the same per cent below corn. In composition It is much like wheat, but rye does not seem to be nearly as well relished; at least hogs will not eat as much rye as wheat on full feed. A mixture of equal parts of corn and rye makes a much more satisfactory fattening ration than rye alone, and equal parts of corn, rye and shorts are still better.” Improving Dairy Herds. Many farmers will keep a cow a whole year to raise a twenty dollar calf, but the dairyman should not be satisfied with such a small profit. To Improve a dairy herd it is essential to select cows from them with care and judgment. Then test the offspring to see if the gooii qualities of the parent have been transmitted or if any improvement has been made. After careful selection godd feeding and care are of the highest Importance if we expect to retain and improve the good qual itles.

Remedy For Worms In Horses. Mix together one pound each of sugar and salt; in this mix one-half pound of fine smoking tobacco, six ounces of powdered wormseed and four ounces of powdered sulphate of iron. As a dose for a mature horse give a heaping tablespoonful in a wheat bran mash every morning for two weeks; colts smaller doses in proportion to size and age.—Farmers Advocate. Alfalfa For Dairy Cows. A summary of feeding trials by the Wisconsin station with dairy cows shows that alfalfa can be made to take the place of at least one-half of the grain usually fed our dairy cows, and as the nutrients needed by dairy cows can be produced much more cheaply with alfalfa than with grain the cost of producing milk may be greatly reduced by its use. Heavy Horses on the Farm. A few good heavy draft horses will do more work on the farm than double the number of light ones. Practically •very team requires a driver. The more that team-can do lit a day the taore economical will the work be. The light horse is all right on the road, but be is at a discount when hitched to a sixteen inch plow. For Coughing Swine. A mixture of equal parts of licorice and ginger in the beg feed two or three times each day is recommended for the pig that coughs. A lump of coal tar placed well down the throat while the pig is held on its feet Is also good. Bright Stables. The more sunlight that can be got in the stable the less opportunity for disease germs to get there. ‘

FARM. ORCHARD AND GARDEN

BY F.E.TRIGG

RESISTER. ROCKFORD, lA. correspondence SOLICITED

The good will of another person may often be won just as quickly by asking a favor of him as by doing a kindness for him. Where it is possible without loss of self respect it is preferable to have the good will rather than the Hi will of a mean cur. Mnny an east and west road can be greatly improved if rows of trees skirting the highway on the south are thinned so as to let the sun shine on the road a part of the day. While the puttering and painstaking and the swift and slapdab hired man are both a trifle wearing on one’s nerves, a fellow sleeps better nights if he has the former rather than the latter on the place. The uncovering of the flowering shrubs and fruits should ,not be done until warm weather has set In for good and other vegetation has made a decided start. Then if a frost comes the chance for damage will be much less.

In nine cases out of ten the worst enemy that the farmer or gardener has is the “man with the gun” who periodically raids his premises. The only kind of dope that will reach this pest is a legal warning to keep off the premises. About the time the yard Is raked Is a pretty good time to inspect the cellar and see that decayed or decaying vegetables of all kinds are removed. It is very natural to overlook the truck in the cellar because it is largely out of sight. If the cornfield is Infested with milkweeds and morning gloties It Is about time to turn it into pasture for three or four years. The presence of these weeds may be taken as a sign that the soil needs a rest from the system of cropping which has been followed with It In preceding years. The common black crow Is a much worse enemy to the poultry man than the skunk or much maligned chicken hawk, which in spite of its name seldom raids the poultry yard. Where chickens or turkeys nest in wood lots adjoining the premises, crows will rifle the nests every chance they get. For the gardener on a small scale in the northern states it is questionable if there is a black raspberry which excels the Older. It is perfectly hardy and does not require covering of any kind, but propagates from the tip, while the fruit it bears is of large size and fine quality. Of those which require covering during the winter the Nemaha is one of the best. While a rotation of only corn and oats may result in a more desirable condition of soil than were corn to follow corn and may perhaps keep in check some pests that work Injury to the latter cereal, the fact remains that with both crops there is a constant pull from the soil and no contribution to it or re-enforcing of it, ns is the case when the clovers enter into the rotation. Because the expense of hauling a crop to market is seldom counted in the expense of producing it there does not seem to be an adequate realization of the enormous annual cost of hauling the various crops produced in this country to market. While the cost to any individual producer may not be a considerable amount, the aggregate for all producers amounts to hundreds of millions of dollars every year. The experience which some corn growers living in the northern part of the corn belt have had the past two or three years points quite conclusively to the fact that the rather small and early maturing variety of corn is a better agricultural asset than the whopping ear with shoe peg kernels that gets pinched with the frost at both ends of the season and sours on the cob after it is put into the crib. While crops of almost all kinds make a more vigorous growth in seasons that are too wet rather than those that are too dry. it is noticeable in a period of years that small grain is of a better Quality when the rather dry conditions prevail, while the root crops do better in the more moist seasons. SemitropIcal plants like the lima bean, eggplant, pepper and tomato are partial to both heat and moisture and flourish best when these conditions exist Reports originating In portions of North Carolina are to the effect that not only has the tanbark industry bad a direct and disastrous effect upon the forest reserves of the state, but that the people engaged in it grow poorer from year to year. It is pointed out by observers that the work of securing the bark gives a return of barely a day’s wages, which is not nearly so profitable as the same effort would be directed along agricultural lines.
