HAY-FORK RIGGING.
Extemporized Affair Which J
wen ia "Well as the Moat
Costly Contrivance.
Many farmers fail to make use of
that great labor-saver, the hay fork,
because their barns, they think, are
not properly arranged to accommo
date the usual hayfork rigging. Many
old barns have the timbers framed in
a way to cause some difficulty in this
respect. Still there ore many barns
now without this help that with a little

planning might make use of the fork.
The cut shows a plan for using an ex
temporized rigging - between the
"bents" having crosswise timbers. A
pulley is located above the mow to be
filled. The rope from it (A) has the
fork at its end. The hay is lifted
straight up from the load .because held
by the rope and pulley (B), operated

ine rope u-iier passing uei me
pulley above the mow, is carried down

which draws it out. The direction may,
of course, have to be changed by a pul
ley in the tarn below. The cut-is given
as a suggestion, to be modified as cir
cumstances demand. Orange Judd

FINE WOOL IS SCARCE.
Holders of the Article In the United
States Are Facing a Very Prom
ising; Situation.
The increasing demand for good;
mutton is doubtless inducing nearly
all of the smaller sheep farmers to
cross tneir Alermoes, n tney possess
any -th some of more distinctly mut
ton breeds, in view of enlarging the
carcasses for the increasing profit
there is in doing so. Report says the
shortage in fine wool the world over
is daily becoming more apparent. Ad
vices from Australia show another
shortage of 150,000 bales of wool, this
tn naw nlin fnn finn rl
drought has- cut short and greatly en-
feebled the last crop of lambs, and
scarcity of winter feed threatens to
make extensive inroads r- 'stock
of weak and impoveri . f.e
present Australian V - . .. light
and much of it poor ii. , The
next season's clip . will show a still
greater falling off in ; quantity and
quality.. Cross-breeding has cut down
the fine wool clip of Argentina to very
modest proportions. France and Ger
many produce considerably less fine
staple than formerly and, with the pos
sible exception of Russia, there has
been no noticeable increase in the pro
duction of fine wool in any one of the
leading wool-growing- countries, but
rather a material and serious diminu
tion. In the United States the amount
of fine wool of home growth is alarm
ingly small.' Stocks of fine staple in
store or factory are steadily going in
to consumption, with comparatively
little in sight anywhere in the world,
to replace them. Growers and holders
of fine wool are facing a very promis
ing situation in which there are no
possible contingencies of loss. Farm

Henry Wallace say3 a correct theory
of farming requires that the fertility
of the land be maintained. This is the
farmer's capital, not the land itself,
but the valuable fertility of the land.
The exhaustion of this- is the exhaus
tion of the farmer's capital stock. In
selling grain we simply sell our land
by picemeal, not the profits, but the
land itself. The correct theory, there
fore, of farming involves not merely
grain production, but meat produc
tion, andi meat production primarily
because in producing it we are selling
our grain to the best market and can
thereby ' keep up the- fertility of the
farm. .. -
New Market for Horses.
Of the many horses- that are taken
away by our army, now numbering in
all nearly 300,000 men, 'not one in a
hundred will ever come back. If crip
pled or worn out they will not be
worth bringing back, and if found
they wilV be worth more where they
are. When they are once in the army
they cease to be competitors in the
home market with the horses remain
ing in the country. The great bulk of
them will be consumed. With the
acquisition of new territory, which
now seems to be a necessary result
of pending military operations, new
markets will be opened up for Ameri
can horses. Rural World. . i
