Horses- that have been properly handled and trained are not balky, neither do they have bad habits. When horses with bad habits are en countered a careful study of each case should be made in order to ascertain the cause, and, If possible, to re move it. The most common cause o f balk iness among horses is punishment to make them do something that they cannot do or that they do not under stand how to do. Another common cause is the forcing of horses to draw heavy loads without allowing them to stop occasionally to rest and regain their breath. The use o f the whip or spu r' in such instances should be avoided, as the pain inflicted will be very likely to provoke further and more stubborn rebellion. If a horse balks the bearing o f the harness should be examined to see if it is hurting him. If a heavy load Is be ing drawn and the horse is not al lowed to rest and regain bis breath and strength he may become sulky , and refuse to puli. Give him a short rest, and while he is resting rub hls nose, pick up a front foot and tap tbe hoof a few times, or adjust the har ness, and he may forget his grievance. Take the lines and give the command to go ahead, turning slightly to the right or left to start. If the horse does not start it is either a case of overload or a .chronic balker. If the load is so heavy it cannot be drawn, unload. If the horse is a chronic balker a course of training will be necessary to overcome the habit. In older horses where the habit of balking is fixed the horse should be j trained to obey all commands with j promptness without being hitched to j the wagon. First put on the double trip ropes and use them until the horse stops and stands when he hears “ whoa.” Next put on the guy line, which should be managed by an as sistant, while you drive and attend the trip ropes. The guy line is a rope fastened around the horse’s neck and a half hitch over the lower jaw. It is very severe and should not be used to excess. If tbe horse shows any tendency to balk, give the command “ whoa” before he stops o f his' own accord. When ready to start, ;the as sistant should take a position in front of the horse and smartly jerk him f-or- Losses by hog cheiera have been m a terially reduced in Bullock county, Ala bama, as a result o f the work o f the county agent in_training farmers in various centers throughout the county to use the serum and apparatus devel oped by the United States Department j of Agriculture.

In Houston county the depart ment’s representative taught 18 men to vaccinate hogs. Six sets of instru ments owned by the Dothan Rotary chib were supplied to the demonstra tors and a serum-distributing point was established in charge of | reliable veterinarian. More than 9,000 head of hogs were treated. In many cases it was found that sickness, other than cholera, was due to some incidental cause, such as bad peanut meal, and balanced rations were advised. The county agent’s work resulted in 32 farmers establishing pastures to keep their hogs off the open range, the land thus pastured being freed from many noxious weeds by the rooting of the animals, and prepared for future culti vation. Forty-four farmers In The county were interested in stump re moving, and about 2,000 acres o f land was cleared in this movement. About five tons o f dynamite was bought for the purpose largely on the co-operative olan.

The Observer, Aurora, Oregon ✓ ■ ward with the guy line at the same time you give the command “ get up.” Repeat the process of stopping and starting until the horse shows no signs of self-will. Use the guy line, and use it severely, on the slightest intimation that the horse is going to balk. After a few of these lessons the horse nfay be hitched to the wagon. The trip ropes and guy line should be kept on until he is well broken of the habit. - A horse that kicks when something touches his heels is dangerous to 1 drive. To overcome the habit, put on the harness and the trip ropes. Take a stick and pole him all over. After he becomes submissive to the pole, tie sacks o f hay to the traees and j breeching, and continue the lesson un til he pays no attention to them. Fasten a long pole on either side with one end to drag on the ground, the other end to be fastened to the shaft carrier. Drive him around with these, and if he attempts to kick com mand “ steady” and pull him to his knees. The lessons should be contin ued until he submits to the poles drag ging between his legs and round him. SILAGE FOR PRODUCING BEEF Missouri College of Agriculture Out lines Satisfactory Plan With — Young Steers. Highly satisfactory beef can be made from two-year-old steers by feeding corn as silage, together with linseed meal and clover or alfalfa hay, Instead o f full feeding shelled or ear Tor», according to the Missouri Col lege of Agriculture. One acre, yielding 40 bushels of corn, or eight tons of silage, if fed as silage, together with 1,733 pounds of linseed oil meal and 1,810 pounds of alfalfa hay would produce 756.8 pounds o f beef and 11.3 pounds of pork. If, however, the corn be fed as shelled corn (full feed) and silage, to gether with 308.2 pounds of linseed meal and 345.2 pounds of alfalfa hay, it would produce 291.6 pounds o f beef and 68.5 pounds o f porfe.
