At this time of the year all the h e a v y work on m o s t farm s h a s been finished, and horses are more or less Idle. Since idle horses give no re turn in labor perform e d , th e feed in g Should be as economical as possible, and proper care should be taken of the animals in order that they may be in the best possible condition for work in the early spring. Horses should not he confined to the barn during the winter on a lib eral supply of grain. It is far better to “rough” them through the cold months. They should be given the run of the yard or lot during the day. They should bo provided w ith a pro tected shed, one that is thoroughly dry and well provided with bedding. While n a t u r e d o e s h e r part' and pro tects the horse with a heavy coat of hair during the cold months, the shed is necessary in order to afford the necessary shelter and protection Sigainst rain, snow and cold winds. Winter winds come mostly from the north and northwest, and the shed should be so situated and constructed a s to g iv e th e proper p r o tection from this quarter. In the feeding of idle horses the highest-priced feed s should be avoid ed in order to keep them in proper condition at the lowest cost. It has b e e n found th a t id le h o r s e s do very well on a winter feed consisting of all the hay, oat straw, cornstalks, or sorghum they will consume, so that little grain is necessary. From six to eight weeks before the spring work is started the horses should be put at light w o r k and start ed on a sm a ll grain ration in order that they may be in proper condition for the work required of them. The grain ration m a y th e n be gradually increased until the regular allov/ance has been reached for the working sea- Growing colts require considerable protein. They should be so fed as to secure proper development and at a minimum cost. Rough feed, such as clean .mixed hay, alfalfa, or clover, may be fed along with a mixture of bran, oats and corn. PRACTICAL LITTLE HINTS ON HOG CARE Muddy Pens Are Disagreeable to Animals—Give Runts Atten tion-Give Pigs Charcoal. (By W . D. NEALL. Colorado.) Birds, dogs or men may carry hog cholera from one farm to another. Bm-ning the hog that has died of Bome disease Is the only sure method of preventing contagion. T h e h o g th a t h a s b e e n allow e d to Bleep in th e old stra w sta c k w ill soon cough h i s h e a lth aw a y . Hogs of all ages and sizes do not thrive when allowed to pile up to gether. Muddy pens are -disagreeable to the hogs. Watch the hog pick the ear of corn out of the mud and seek a dry place to eat it and you will be fully convinced of this fact. It pays to separate the runts from the herd and give them special atten tion. By this method you make them profitable hogs. Slops should not he carried from the kitchen to the hogpen if the good housewife uses all kinds of wash pow ders in the dish water, for many of them are poisonous. Pure skim milk Is good for the growing pigs. Put a little bran with it and it will be the richer. Do not give much sour milk to very young pigs for fear of the scours. The dog that “wools” the ears of the hogs or tears their hams should be kept away from the herd even if the hogs do get through the fence into the cornfield or meadow. Keep charcoal, salt and ashes be fore the pigs all the time, and it will mean death to worms or bowel trou ble. Put a teaspoonful of soda In the sow's slop, and it will be beneficial to the pigs aflaicted with the scours. Pigs look good in a field of alfalfa, clover or rape, and best of all they do well whil^ ruifiiiiig there. The pig that is weaned will squeal around a good deal. The only way to shut off his squeal i^ to fill his stomach with food. Kick the pigs away from the straw D o n ’t l « t them sleep t h e r e . T h e straw rick is a good place to contract the cholera. Grade the Apples. P r o p e r grading i s n e c e s s a r y i n order to get the best prices from many crops. This is especially true of ap ples and other products that sell on appearance. A few poor apples in a lot will lower the selling price to that of the poor apples. Better sell Ho. 1 and No. 2 stock in well graded pack- agftii. HORSES AND MULES SHIPPED TO EUROPE Animals Bought for Export for Use in the Great War Are Among Lighter Grades. (By PROF. E. A. TROWBRIDGE, Uni versity of Missouri, College of Agricul- About half a million horses and mules have been sent to Europe be cause of the war. Although the num ber sounds large, it really includes less than two per cent of the 28,000,- 000 horses and mules on hand in the XJnited States January 1, 1915, and a still lower percentage when we re member the 1915 colts must be added to this number. The 400,000 horses bought for ex port for use in the war are among the lighter animals ranging from 1,000 to 1,500 pounds in weight. Although many of them are of mixed breeding, tb#y are good useful horses, but do not sell for particularly high prices, and there is an opportunity for the raiser to produce others of much bet ter type to replace those that have been sold. The increased cost of land, labor and other things used in horse- raising has gradually widened the gap between the price of good horses and mules, and those of inferior animals until npw only the superior animals can be produced profitably. About eighty per cent of the horses and mules in the country are n&w owned and used on farms. The auto mobile, auto truck and farm tractor all help to replace some of these ani mals, hut any great changes in this direction will come about gradually and production will be got jrned large ly by demand. In view of these con- .stantly changing conditions, however, the business of horse production of fers unusual opportunities to the man who succeeds in meeting market de mands successfully. Horses of the draft or high-class saddle type or mules of good size and quality and capable of doing lots of hard work are likely to prove most profitable. Cutting Ensilage.
