OREGON POWER COMPANY Breaking the Colt. The earlier the colt is made used to the harness the better broken the ant mal will be when it comes time foi him to do some light work. It Is easiei to keep colts from learning bad trlckj than to break them of such habits. For this reason have every strap and rope used by the colts so strong that there is no danger of a break. Once a colt finds out that be can get away from a halter or other parts ol the harness there will be trouble, per haps for all time. Air Requirements of Chickens. Fowls are obliged to throw off much of the waste of the body through th lungs. They do not sweat In the sensi that do other animals, but Instead breathe several times faster than sweating animals when heated. To keep in good health a hen require! nearly seven times the amount ol fresh air in proportion to Its size ai does a horse. Color of Eggs. The first eggs of the brown-egs. layers are generally of a good color, but as the hen increases her laying she decreases the amount of color, owing to the gradual loss of the plg ment which colors the eggs. Exercise for the Boar. The boar will not have that ani mated appearance that he should have if kept in close confinement It you would have him lively and a safe and sure aire, provide a pasture for Mm. better if it is cleaned up, Butter should always be put up li a dainty and attractive package. An orchard neglected for one yeai virtually puts It back three years. Look out for those cold rains; put the cows up. This applies to calvei as well. Fine corn meal for the skim mils calf Is a good substitute for the mon expensive oil meal To double the amount of milk pel acre and cut the cost of milk produo tion in two build a silo, Time and care spent in the orchard la almost sure to pay for itself and i good rate of interest besides, Spanish experiments show that 600 pounds of skim milk equal in feedlni value 100 pounds of corn meal. Lighting, ventilation and cleanU ness mast be practiced before besi results can be secured in the dairy, The heifer bred too early alwayi remains stunted in growth and hei milk flow is shortened for all time, Young fruit trees that were planted In the autumn of last year, or la the spring, should be examined care fully. No breed of dairy cows can con tinue as first-class dairy animals 11 the calves are allowed to run with the cows. Two pounds of mixed shorts and bran per cow per day is sufficient for cows that are expected to givi liberal flows of milk. Poultry and fruits are closely al lied. Both do well together, and they readily thrive on the same land with, out hindering each other. At no season of the year should water stand around the trees and vines. Their roots will not stand it There must be proper drainage. One advantage of succulent feed ia the fact that it not only provide! the cow with more moisture, but al the same time is more appetizing. i The Proper Way. "Do you believe what the German army ofllcer says, that tightening one's belt will alleviate the pangs of hunger?" "Certainly, If the belt Is tightened In the proper manner." "Is there more than one way to tighten a belt?" "Certainly. One way is to pull it up two or three holes, thus shorten ing it, and" "That was the way I was thinking of." "But the way to so tighten It as to hunger is to cram the stomach full of food, thus distending the walls of the stomach and tightening the belt automatically." Took the Tall End. The Lancashire people are fond of dogs In fact, they're very proud of them, and therefore when a prominent dog fancier came home one night and found his son had bought a nonde script mongrel he was rather riled. "How much didst thee gle for that dog?" he inquired. "Five shillings," replied the son. "Tell thee what A'll do," replied the parent. "A'U go shares wl' thee. A'll gle thee half a crown for ma share." The half crown was duly paid; then the father remarked: "ATI tak' t' tall end, and A'm goln' to kick my half outen t' door!" Lon don Tit-Bits. W. R.
