When training tbe colt see that the straps and buckles are in good condition. Irregular feeding, Improper feed, changing the feed or dam aged feed will cause colic. When the hoofs are hard and dry let your horses have a good run on the grass. We do not believe In bllndors. Tench your horses to work with out them. Be careful not to overload your team. Overloading Is the cnuse of much unsoundness In horses. i iii OOOO ROAD GRIST. We can't deny that w are far behind tho reft of the world In good roads, but we are willing and expecting to go ahead.

WHAT BETTER ROADS WEAN TO THE FARMER. Th Only Thing Ndd Now to Help th Agriculturist. If I were compelled to aay what I thought was the most Important phase of agricultural life I would say roads, aaya a writer In the American Agricul turist. To take tho drudgery away from the rural life and give the farm ing community a chance to enjoy life and iimko money while It is harj at work I do not know of nny one thing that could be of more real bene fit than good roads. I believe that bad roi'ds more than any other one thin? have been responsible for tho exodus from the country to the city. People cannot be happy unless they are con tented. The people on the farms are like other folUs-tlicy like to visit their neighbor, go to church, go to the niim-eiiii'iits and see the sights and take part In fill these things. Bnt they nre prohibited from dolnu these thin? and many, others, for the renaon that the id-ol:i ol fen nre no bad they cannot tnuel on t hem for fear of accidents nnd trouble: hence they Mny ut hoini? eiiiil they become so dissatisfied with lli- firm they ult and move to town. If this wa; remedied by good roads, so iliey could go unci ace the'r neih b'Hs and spend an evening with them, or iro to sonio entertainment nt the neai'iiy town and see a gixs! sho'v, or attend some public meeting and have n ch nice to take purl in what la going on In the wori.l nboitt them, they would be better snti.dlod. Thin is not all nor the best aide of good roads. Tho farmer living in the community where the roads nre good Is prosperous, for the reason that he can keep In touch with the markets. With tho H. F. P.. parcel post, tele phone, he needs only good roads to make farm life the nioi-t complete and most desired on earth. The exodus from the country to the city will end when good roads come, and the re verse will then occur from the city to the farm. TEXAS COUNTY ISSUES BONDS $50,000 to .Be Spant In Midland For Better Highway. A wealthy ranch owner of Midland county, Tex., was opposed to a pro posed $ri0,(KH) land issue for good roads. On the day of the election ho started for the county sent determined to vote against the lanuls. Fortunately for good roads, It had rained the previous night, and the highway wns In terrible shape. After several hours of fighting water holes and mud up to bis axles he reached town converted, announcing that any man opposed to better roads in Midland county was a particular brand of fool. He voted for the bonds, and tho issue carried by a large ma jority. The movement wns started Inst win ter by the Midland Commercial club, and a vigorous campaign of education was curried on. There was a small but determined opposition which fought tho proposition very earnestly. Mass meetings were held and speakers brought in by the Commercial club from other counties to tell of the ben efit of good roads lu neighboring com-munltli-s. Automobile excursion trips were also got up to other counties where roads had been built so that a priictl'-iil lesson might bo taught to skeptics ami scoffers. Colorado' New Road Laws. Colorado baa doue away with the old "pork barrel" methods of expending state rond funds. Its present legisla ture has lately enacted two laws, the passage of which has been strongly advocated by good roads enthusiasts, couinieivitil associations and tho busi ness anil motor interests of the state for several yours. One of these laws creates u state highway commissioner, with mi advisory board representing the five sections of the state, to have genera! supervision of state roads. The second mv places the internal im provement fund in tho hands of the highway commission for expenditure on n comprehensive system of roads. This fund now amounts to nbout $"''. 000. It is provided that tho commis sion shall appropriate sums equal r'i those of thu respective counties for work on state primary roads, but )t has power to Increase this us high ns $.T to every $1 of (ho county's In weak counties having low valuation and ex pensive road construction. Conse quently there will bo available for road development In Colorado this year no tween $1,500,1X10 and $2,000,000 t- le spent on connected roads. THE.-i.EAL VALUE OF ' PEOIOilEE ii HORSES By DR. A. $. ALEXANDER, Collec of gvlruilur of th University of Wisconsin. The pedigree of a horse I almply a record of tho animals that In succes sion have entered Into lu breeding. Whether It Is a guarantee of Individ ual prepoU-ncy depends upon the ex- ' cellence and known virility of the an cestors on each aide of the pedigree. The more and bettor the ilaum re forded In the iMallgrce tho more cer biln may we bo or the breeding (piall fientloiia of the IK-dlgreed animal. The sires should Ixi of efpinl merit, and the iiioNl Important point Is to see that they are of known purity of blond nnd Individual excellence.

Bom of th rea son for keeping pedigree ar: Pcd hrree give th breeder accurate data a concern th lineage of hi animal. Usually th pedigree give th breeder a chance to trace per formance in ancestry. In nearly all cose pedigree are the evidence of purity of breeding. The splendid pure bred Percheron stallion here pictured I a striking example of th value of using pedigreed aire. must be kept that upon neither side is there an objectionable outcross or the presence of a sire or dam noted tor unsoundness or other faulty trait, character or feature. Furthermore, the man back of tbe pedigree must be taken into account I Tho pedigree. is of little value unless the breeder and seller are men of in tegrity. Neither is a pedigree a sufficient cri terion of merit nor an apology for in dividual imperfection. In some in stances a horse with a long line of reputable ancestors, but a compara tively poor Individual himself, may prove an Impressive aire. In most cases a somewhat Indifferent individu al that has a fine Hue of ancestors, as proved by bis pedigree. Is greatly to be preferred for breeding purposes to a "scrub" grade or even a cross bred animal. IJowover, the safest way is to select a sire combining both excellent breed ing and Individual excellence. WORKING THE SEPARATOR. lncorrct Operation May Result In Los of Butter Fat Have you ever taken the pains occa sionally to note whether or not your separator is being turned to the speed required in the catalogue? Hold your watch on the person turning tbe crank once n week or so, says Better Farm ing. The crank of tbe separator can easily be turned one or two revolu tions too fast per minute, and it Is just as easy to lose considerable but ter fat by the slacking speed. The necessary one or two turns per min ute will result in tbe bowl running 600 or 700 revolutions too slow. This Is a little thing, but it may save the fat of one cow. You cunuot afford to waste fat after you have gone to tbe trouble of pro ducing it A recently Invented de vice for obtaining the speed at which cream separators are operated Is now on tbe market Tbe instrument is in the nature of a speedometer by which the operator of the separator Is al ways kept Informed of the number of revolutions at which tbe machine is being run. This provides 100 per cent etikient operation, or. in other words, tells the operator exactly tbe number of revolutions per minute that the maker provided for in its manu facture, as it gives an unfailingly ac curate check on the number of revolu tions per minute. That there aro many farmers oper ating cream separators who could profitably use such an Instrument Is shown lu tests recently conducted by the experiment station of Purdue uni versity, in one test it was shown thnt through the Incorrect operation of tbe cream separator a dairyman owning twenty cows lost $554.10 In one year because "he guessed at the speed of his cream separator." Any dairyman who owns eu average dairy will lose a large per cent of what his profits should be In a year when he operates his separator without an ac curate check on the speed. Amount of 8ilags For Cow. The amount of silage to feed a cow will depend upon the capacity of the nnlmnl to take feed. Sho should be fed us much as she Mill clean up with out wusto w hen consumed along with her bay and grain. Itulse or lower the amount until the proper quantity is ascertained. Generally speaking, a good cow should be fed just short of the limit of her appetite. If sho re fuses any of her feed it should be re duced at once. Tho small breeds will take twenty-five or thirty pouuds per day, the large 'breeds about forty and the medium sized ones amounts vary ing between.
