Articles are frequently published, not only in technical journals, but also in papers -intended for the general public, pointing out the great loss of energy suffered through the inefficient use of coal in steam engines. Very little notice, however, is taken of the, equally unecononmical use of horse labour, particularly on farms. For example, many owners of western grain farms keep a large stock of work -horses to handle the rush of work during the summer, and have these horses standing idle in the stable during the greater part of the winter. Investigations carried on by the United States Department of Agriculture show that, in the north- ' rn States, taking the entire year, racltfarm horse works on an average only 8i hours a day. This low figure represent', a considerable loss of use- ful enetgy for which the remedy must be sought in one of two ways. Either farm operations must be more diver- sifled,.so as to spread the work more equally over the year and make it possible to reduce the stock of working horses, or machinery must be sub- 'tituted for horse power to a much greater extent than at present. Every horse -owner is entitled to ex- pect, and to strive to attain, a satis- factory return from bis investment in horse flesh. The right way to do this is not to overwork the horses, but to put more brains into his busi nese, so that, as far as possible, no horse may be idle for any lengthy period, nor yet have to work overtime during rush seasons. • --gee, A Coming Diplomat Young Arthur setoff jubilantly to his flret party, after having promised bis mother that he would decline if of- fered anything to eat the second time. When refreshments were ser- ved, his hostess, noticing bow eagerly he disposed of his ice cream, eaid: "Won't you have some more, At. thur?" .. The little fellow looked up wistfully: "I promised mamma I tvouldn't ac- cept the second time," he said, "but if you ask me the third time I guess it will be all right."

Has it impressed itself on your mind, as a practical man, selling farm crops in the- form of milk through the medium of cows' manufacturing apparatus, that possibly some of this animated machinery needs overhaul- ing and closely examining? A new machine, running more economically, may save a manufacturer its coat several times over in a very short while. So if your cows were regarded in this light, some might be found to be very economical producers, and possibly the less said about the capa- city of others the bett er.. Some cow testing figures given to the Dairy Division, Ottawa, by dairy farmers prove that some herds of cows produce milk at a feed cpst of 31.45 per 100 pounds, while close by are other herds whose average feed cost of production is only eighty cents per hundred pounds of milk. Again, between two cows in ,the same herd the cost of feed per pound of butters fat is frequently found to vary as mudb ae from twenty-three to forty-nine cents. -. What is of importance to the aver- age dairyman is this fact, that cow testing helps to put each cow in the herd on a good paying basis very', quickly. A simple plan of weighing and testing each individual cow's milk soon discovers if any unit mach- ines in the milk -making factory are not in good economical running order, Then plane are laid for keeping the type of cow that makes twenty or thirty dollars or more clear profit above the cost of feed Does each one of your cows do that? It will pay you to find out,—O. F, W.
