I begin ibis always the fell before by sewing aleiety of rye and clover to give green feed during the spring and early sum - (Per, During the winter I feed all eat- tle grain twice daily find `all of the sough feed they will clean up. About Idarch 15 I have rye large enough to teed, and then I begin getting away from the grain ration by substituting a teed of green rye cut and fed in racks for one feed of grain. li continue this reeding until the latter part of April, t3y this time 1 have pasture and cut The matter of quality in beef is wry simple. Most cattle of the beef breeds have very much nat- ural fleshing ability. They may be- come emaciated to a skeleton, but this natural 'ability 'emains. The cattle that have not teen specially developed for beef growing have but little natural fleshing ability. What is the result? When put on feed the good Shorthorn, .Angus or Hereford steer distributes the fat fn the multitude of cells found in his abundance of natural flesh and when finished yields a product fit for a king. The scrub steer, with scarcely any natural flesh, can store but Iittle of the fat in this manner and when slaughtered yields up a chunk of dry lean and a chunk of tallow, either one a poor article of diet. The one had a place to put meat; the other did not. out grain entirely to all cattle over one year old. Young cattle I feed a little grain the year round. I continue feed. ing once a day, feeding about all the cattle will clean up in the afternoon after clover is large enough to cut and feed. x follow the same feeding plan with clover as with rye. By the ,tire clover is gone I try to have green corn, My plan is as fol. lows: 1 flare six small bog pastures on the farm containing one and a half acres each. Three of these I plant in corn every year, alternating the fields, 1 plant the first one just as soon as possible with early corn. Two weeks following I plant the second lot and two weeks after this the third and sow each of these in peas at the last working of the corn. The peas are left for the hogs. By the time my clover is all gone I have corn about in roasting ear stage in my first tot. This is cat and fed green to the cattle, The two remaining lots follow in succession, leaving the peas to mature for the hogs. When the corn is fed up I begin ou pea vines, cut and fed green, and continue feeding these once a day uutil frost. In this action pastures are not very abundant. and I have found that i could get fair better results and more feet] oli a given amount of land by only allowing the cattle to run on pasture a In: if day at the time and supple nat.hting this with the crops named, in tl.s- manner stated, Prean the time cattle .ane out of winter quarters until they are put back on a grain ration in the Cart. This is my general plan, and. of course, sometimes when the pastures are plentiful I pasture entirely, but tliis is rare. I think the extra amount of manure gained by keeping the cat. tle In a well littered feed Jot half of the day, and especially the hot after unons when they world not las reed• Mg much if on pnstnre. easily pay ah profit on the cost of handling the feed hauled to the cattle, and 1 also figure that I can keep more cattle by doing tills. Good Sows For Improvement. A lot has been said about the boar having an Immense influence op the het'd. It is true that is influence at. Ports move nnlnials than the Influence of any Individual sow does. You can't expect one hoar, however, to improve a poor herd all alone. He must have the help of some good sturdy sows than have been selected because of their type. The boar will stomp lite diameter. lstictr upon the offspring of almost any sow, but he will not produce trigs ex• actly like himself. The sow has a big tntinence on the naris, and if she is es• ceptlonally poor the pigs will certainty not be so good as tlheir sire. They will be better than their dam, of course, bet a herd can be built up faster if et least a few of the sows are selected from the herd of some man who has boon successful in breeding 4 profit- able type. The htors'•s Hoof.. If the Horse's hoofs are hard nerd id. ciined to be "sheily" do not let any- body put oil or grease on them, for this only clogs the hoof material, which slhonitl absorb waster iihstead of rre• polling it. Such hoofs ere best trent• ed by soaking tht.iih several hours stir gether in warm Water slightly salted or by turning out the horse at nig ht ltt a pasturere where he will get thg hoots wet IA the dews w .

Hang in a shady tool plane to dry. Paint or grease spots gash be removed by turpentine, Hot 'water should not be used. When a horse gets a barb wire cut do not apply axle grease or Huy greasy substthnee, writes A. S. Alexander, 111, D. 0., in the Ftu'm Journal, Wash ttaa part clean. Clip off the hair around the wound and thee wash ngttln to gef riel of hair and any foreign substance that may have lodged in the wound.. li necessary to remove send, earth or cin dens from a wound, due to a fall, fot instance, use clean cotton butting or absorbent cotton and not a sponge, A sponge becomes dirty antl readily its. fects a wound. Each day use freet absorbent cotton to do any cleazzsiee necessary in treating a wound or sore, When the wound has been Cleansed de The Percheron was first intro- duced into America about fifty years ago, and it seems to be growing in favor. The breed is known for its characteristic gray color. .However, black is coming into favor as a col- or, and the bays, roans and chest- nuts may be found. Tho Percheron is n. massive, heavily muscled ani- mal, from 15 to 17.2 hands high, weighing usually from 1,600 to 2,200 pounds. The Percheron has good action, although it is said that the stride is not so showy nor quite so active as that of the Clydesdale. not put in stitches (sutures) if the Wound is deep or ragged or in a place that will not be perfectly at rest when the horse is standing, walking, lying down or rising. It therefore is use- less to stitch a wound in front of the hock joint or on the thin skin in the bend of any joint or in the skin and muscles of the rear parts which arc strained and used in rising. Often n horse suffers a wide open wound of tbe skin and the muscles at the side of the tail inflicted by the kick of the horse in the next stall. This wound rarely can be sutured successfully. The stitches tear out when the horse gets up, and the wound is made worse than before, Tie up tbe animal so that he cannot lie down when such a 'wound has to be treated. It may then be sutured if the muscles are not deeply cut. The wound then should be wetted often with white lotion, or a dry dusting powder may be applied twice a clay. A cheap dusting powder is made by mixing together equal parts of slaked line, sulphur and charcoal. Run thiy through a flour sifter to make it fine, This is a good powder to dust ou largo sores. In fly time add a dram of iodo, form per ounce and the files will be kept off. A more expensive dusting powder for use on sores and wounds may be made by mixing together one drank of iodoform and seven drams of boric acid. This is good powder to use on a wound of the hoot hc?ac] (coronet). :;sell won nds should not lac stitched. Cleanse them, clip away the hair, dust freely with the powder. then cover with cotton batting or absorbent cotton and bandage snugly. Renew the dressing once daily. 11 there is a big wound and n flap of skin a callous bunch is likely to remain when the wound has healed. This can be large- ly prevented by pincin a flat wad of oakum over the first turn or two of the bandage immediately upon the flap end wound and thee bandaging tight- ly to cause trreeeure upon the part. 1l'hop, a berse gets a nail prick, and such wounds are very common and serines, always have the wound cut down .vpou to give vent to any blood. sernm or pus which should come awes,. Even the slight nail wound e hould be so handled. After the cut- ting saturate the wound with a one Bye -hundredths solution of corrosive sublimate @t;1(7, then cover with the last pt`gt;cytbec1 dusting powder, absorbent cotton and bandage, Renew the dress. firs; daily. If pus issues from the wound be careful to cut away every part of the underrun born or sole; then swab with the corrosive sehlitnate so- lution and use dusting esewder and cot- ton and bandage onee a day.

"Ugh!" grunted the big Navajo *chief. "White man's Thankgive; him eat heap; Injun stay hungry; no big eat for Injun." Spotted Horsetail was sad and sore. £hree hundred braves were in his camp, -with many squaws and papooses —all hungry. Those who know any- thing about Indians know that Indians are always hungry. And now it was the white man's Thanksgiving day, as the railroad agent (the entire popula- tion) at Broken Ridge had informed the chief. Excepting Uncle • Sam's salt pork and. canned beans there was little to eat on the reservation. Spotted ITorsetail was disgusted. "Whoop! Ht-yi-yit" yelled three young braves, riding in at a wild gallop from the railroad. Their faces were smeared with what an eastern tender- foot would have coiled war paint, but in truth it was California raspberry jam, orange marmalade, molasses and other sweets, "Heap big eat!" yelled the riders. "White man's dinner!" In three minutes every bnck Navajo was mounted and off toward the rail- road, followed by the women and chit dren- afoot, Near Broken Rk'ige a loose rail had thrown, ten. freight cars•of the track.

And every day for six weeks there after came Spotted Ilorsetall and a Squad of braves, who sat silently along side the railrottcd track from dawn to ltiusk.
