Anally queried:
"I don't ace anything ao very funny."
"Hut there la aomethlug very funny
la your having tho Idea that ham

"Why, of coumo they do."
"Why, of course they don't. You

the lamb pluses the producer.

Ra c-tna; at Fair..
An English correspondent of tht
London Lire Stock Journal who 1 Uie
secretary of a fair association asks
others to co-operate with him in the
formation of an organization to en
courage the breeding and improving
of trotting horses. Ilia object is not to
benefit himself as a breeder or owner
of trotters, for he has none, but to im
prove the attendance at the agricul
tural shows. He says that the "gate"
Is greatly Influenced by trotting race.".
This has been the experience of fair
managers In this country. Not many
agricultural fairs would be financially
successful without the attraction of
harness racing, but It Is rather sur
prising to find snob a condition in
Great Britain. Racing at our leading
fairs U entirely free from the objection
of gambling, and in some respects the
eport Is at Its best there. National
Stockman.
Starting; a. Flock of Sh-p.
To give my actual experience, I be
gan one fall with twelve yearling ewe3
and hired a Cots wold ram for $T. Iu
due time u;y ewes all brought twin
lauilw except one and raised them all.
About the end of September 1 butcher
ed the best one aud sold twenty-two
a few days Liter to a neighbor for $100,
I then got a full blood Oxford ram, aud
the next flo.k of lambs was fally us
good. If uot better. To start a flock my
way would Ik? to get the desired num
ber of lambs iu the fall, preferably full
bloods, but f,"ood grades will do, and tV
breed from them, then keep them ait
and In the spring they should shear
from twelve to hfteeu pounds of wool,
In the fall I would get a well bred Ox
ford ram f;r breediug. C. Schinuerer

Exercise is part of the best balanced
ration for pics.
Quick growiug. early maturing hogs
are most popular.
The hog is nu animal that will re
ward careful si tidy of his wants.
Under the- most favorable conditions
pigs will gain a pound a day up to four
months ami over a pouud a day after
that.
The greater the amount of food a
hog may be induced to consume will
be followed by greater gains, aud this
may be best obuiiued by iuruishing n
variety for his consumption. Those
feeds are most prolitnble which can be
grown with least la'oor uud harveste !
by tlio swlae themselves. Permanent
pastures are of gre.it assistance In pro
ducing pork at a very uomiual cost.
Over and over the changes need 1

exclusively i young and growing hogs.
Iu a recent number of the Live Stock
World lr. Alexander. Uu- well kuow.i
live stock writer, says u,;oii this sub
Jeet: "Corn is i tine fnUe.iiug food, but
It Is deficient In bone and muscle mak
lug ingredients, and if fed as a we'.
nigh exclusive ration to young, grow
lug pigs it is not strange that they de
velop fat, pudgy bodies, which beeoni
too heavy for the weak muscles ami
bones to uphold, so that paralysis en
sues. In some instances the bones be
como go, weak they actually fracture."
When u litter of pigs is to be raised
exclusively for slaughter crossing Is
not ob'jectlo:i!ible. In fact, many care
fill hog nlsors think It is tho best
method to follow. Often pigs of good
form, maturing quickly and satisfac
torily. Is tlio result of crossiug. The
pigs, however good they may be, are
of little value us breeders. Iu geuaral,

LIVE STOCK
'IMPROVEMENT
Mont all fanners are willing to admit
the many advantages of high clans II re
stock when compare to live stock of
Inferior quality. They are willing to
admit that the Inferior animal will eat
as much as the good one, that tho sell
ing price will be much lower, the
profit consequently much smaller, that
they will have to send for buyers to
come and see the Inferior animal and
sometlmea Insist on them making an
offer and, of course, willing to admit
that there U much pleasure to be de
rived from breeding and caring for -high
class live stock ard that buyers
are always plentiful, in spite of all
the advantages of good stock It Is sur
prising to seo how many Inferior cattle
and horses are yet being produced.
Lack of definite purpose and careless
ness are responsible for far" more In
ferior live stock than all other causes
combined, says Charles Mclntlre of
Muskingum county, O., In the Ohio
Farmer. 11: e mating of animals with
no other object In view but simply to
get more stock, having do class In mind
nor aiming at any type and being sat
isfied with whatever Is produced, will
never bring about an improvement.
Every farmer and stockman should
consider bis farm and decide what
class of animals are best adapted to
his farm. Then be abould adapt him
self to the animals.
Driving: Foar Horses Abreast.
A writer In the Breeder's Gazette
gives this method of rein adjustment In
driving four horses abreast: First . I
put check lines on the two outside
horses. Then I have a strap with a
snap on either end about four Inches
long. I snap thbs In the inside bit rings
of the two In
ner horses, then
I take two hitch
reins and tie
the two outside
horses to the
two middle
ones. This way
you can handle
four the same
as two with
only two lines.
Another writer
says: To drive

tried many dif
ferent ways and find the following
arrangement the best: First put ordi

then take a long cross line (a small

Yoangr Meat Brat.
Young ho;rs, weighing from loO to 200
pounds, make the nicest meat, and
pigs fed ou a variety of food with suf
ficient protein in it are very much bet
ter than coru fed hogs, where corn is
fed exclusively. Most people tlilnk a
thick fleshed or broad backed bog Is of
necessity a lard hog, but hogs grown
on the right kind of pasture and that
must le a continuous one during the
growing, always feeding grain during
pasture season, and then finished on
the balanced ration, and this kept up
for generations, can be lean as well as
thick fleshed hogs. This is truo of cat
tle aud sheep, and why not also of
hogs? We have fed largely on 6k!m
milk and peas and oats lu connection
with corn and ample pasturage, and
we know we can have a thick fleshed
hog that will make uice meat, especial
ly wheu int too old. Thomas Convey,

The beneficial effect of groomlujf
upon the well being of stabled horses
cannot easily bo overrated. Vigorous
grooming tends to keep them In a
healthy state, and without It It Is not
possible to maintain them In the best
working condition. It Is very general
ly thought (tliat the only object of,
grooming horses Is merely to clean tho
coat and to Improve their appearance,
but this Is quite a subsidiary object.
The principal and Important objects of
grooming are or at any rate should ba
to clean the skin (uot merely tho sur
face of the coat), to keep Its pores open
nud to stimulate aud Increase Us action
by vigorous friction. If a lioiso la to
be at Its beat for work, the skin must
bo kept clean and the pores open, so
thut tho netlou of tho sklu may bo thor.
