Every farmer should plan to

wonders In the dairy, but they
are not the whole thing. Cows
and cleanliness have their part.

GROWING DRAFT HORSES.
A Pair of Good Brood Marss Will Pay
Thsir Wy on ins Farm.
As It costs from $."iO to $100 a year to
keep a horse on tho farm, It Is a prob
lem for every farmer to solve, writes
W. V. Hunter In the National Stock
man. How ninny can we afford to
keep or how few can we get along with
and not be out of season getting crops
planted and harvested? A pair of
good brood mares will, I believe, solv
this problem letter and more profitably
than any other system, provided good
Judgment Is used in breeding and care
of the mares and the colts. Ity good
management the produce of the mares
and the growth of the colts ought to
pay all the expense of keeping, and
thus the horse power on the farm can
be a source of profit rather than a bill
of expense, as It usually is. Another
advantage In the system suggested Is
that after the colts get two or three
years old the farmer will have an ex
tra team to help get his crop In or off
Just at the right time.
In our climate there are about four
months In t'le year when about twice

the nnmstured grain while standing In
the field and deposits her eggs, which

cured, harvested and stored. 8oon aft

feed on the kernel of the grain.
It Is In this stage that the lusect does
Its doadly work, Iwomlng full grown

One of the best Insecticides recom

This compound may be secured from

Dehorn the Calf.
Horns have no place on the farm.
Tlu-y are not wanted on (ho dairy
cow now, us they uro a dangerous ap
pendage, and tho time has gone by
when thu cow needs them as a defense
against tho attacks of wild animals.
The fact Is they are a nuisance, ami
the best way to get rid of them Is to
kill the embryo horn In the early life
of the calf.
For some years I have used caustic
potash to prevent tho growth of horns
on my calves, says n writer In the
Southern Cultivator. Tho operation Is
a simple one and can bo dono by any
careful person. Clip off the hair around
tho little horn from a spot about as
large over as a quarter of a dollar;
then wrap a slick of caustic potash In
a piece of paper, exposing tho tip of
one end. This caution Is to prevent
burning the lingers. Apply tho caustic
to Hie horn, rubbing It slightly until
It begins to look red, then grease
around the horn to prevent the caustic
from spreading and burning where not
needed. For this reason enre should
bo taken not to get much water on the
horn for It burns wherever It runs.
