In fact. 15 lbs. of hay per day is sufficient bulky food for a horse of that size. A horse weighing 1,500 lbs. to 1,800 lbs. does not need more than 20 lbs. of hay per day. The balance of his nutrients k- shonld be in the form of grain. "Feed the 1,000 lbs. horse 10 lbs, of good hay at night and 5 lbs. in the morning and he will perform more labor with greater ease than he would if kept before him all the while. ,'The purpose of the experi ment is to cause horse owners to observe more closely the advan tages of feeding less hay. If two or more teams are maintained upon the farm, feed one team as suggested and the other the usual way and note carefully the result In making the tc?t, howm-nr.

The cross did not run so high in individual months but she was more consistent, laying over 20 eggs every month except March.' "This is a matter of breeding, feeding and care," said Prof James Dry den, poultry expert for the experiment station to night. "In the same pen with the record Plymouth Rock hen we had one which laid but 6 eggs although she was of the same breed, and received the same care and feed. The trouble was in heredity. She was a poor in dividual. When we have finish ed figuring up the records of all the hens in this test we will have some very interesting Pata for publication in a new bulletin of the experiment station," Foil Sale A span of horses weigh ing about It') unl!. each; alswi heavy harnesss and wagon.
