|ULE IS OF MORE
■ VALUE THAN HORSE
W Properly Broken, Animals Ex
[ cel Horses for General Farm
L Work—Eats Less.
■ Mules can be worked when three
nears old, though they do not reach
Rhelr maturity until seven years of age.
Their temper, health and usefulness
depend very much on the manner of
breaking them, says a writer in the
Baltimore American. The so-called
stubbornness an obstinacy of the mule
arises chiefly from the abuse he is wont
to receive when young. He seldom, if
ever, bites or kocks those who treat
him kindly.
The mule can do more work and
needs less grain than the horse, he is
less liable to disease and recovers
from sickness and injury quicker than
a horse. He works better when old
and holds out longer. He seldom
takes fright or runs away. For heavy
hauling and in making up spans select
those of 16 to 15% hands high. Those
of similar dispositions should be chos
en and put together, so they will work
together with a will. For working
small crops in the garden, for any
kind of farm work, the mule will be
found much the most economical work
animal to own. One pair of medium
sized mules can be kept on less grain
than a pair of the same sized horses;
they do not need so much grain. Nearly
all our truckers use mules. We have
for a number of years used mules ex
clusively on our farms. For teaming
the mule is the animal to have.
For cultivating vegetables in nar
row rows the small mule weighing un
der 1,000 pounds should be chosen.
Mules are high in price this season,
a pair of medium sized young broken
mules is worth $350 to $4OO. Small
Hftwjunnles may be had for $250 per
Ktly on average farm
put on the market. It will depend,
too, upon the kind of feed that Is be
ing grown. In my opinion, corn is
about the best feed that can be given
the hogs on the average farm.
Hog raising ought to be as much a
part of the regular farming opera
tions as the growing of crops, t’ V
rearing of cattle and the handling yC
meadows. Unless conditions a ,<dn
usual a hog farm is hardly 1 Ay to
pay. But —the hog should bo a part
of the regular production of any and
all farms where crops of a feeding
value are grown. We ought to grow
all the porkers that can be economi
cally grown and fed.
The hog is a mortgage-lifter and a
bank roll tattener In these later
years. The profits in his carcass may
be reached by any man having a few
or many acres. The slow spread of
the breeding of better hogs is bound
to make the business more profitable
In the future.
The principal argument advanced
against the better breeds of hogs Is
that they are not altogether suited to
the conditions on the average farm.
It is urged that the better-class hop
has grown under more favorable ar
rangements and that he Is Inferior
to the nondescript in not being able
to take care of himself. That is a
mistake. In the first place any hog
that is profitable must be given
proper sheltering, pasturage' and ra
tions. If the change is gradual
the objection will not be true in any
case.
By getting a good boar, say a pure
bred Berkshire, putting him at the
head of the herd, this can be proven.
It is possible to get a good boar with
out. sending 800 or 1,000 miles for
him. Usually he can be secured pret
ty close to home, and he Is already
acclimated. A pure-bred boar, used
with a herd of ordinary brood sows,
will boost the meat production of the
farm by about one-third and the fat
tening will not require an ear more of
corn or a pound more of slops in his
feed.
Wo ought to get rid of the razor
hack type that eat more corn without
results than do the animals that have
been bred for generations with the
Idea of turning out an animal that
can turn every grain to profit. While
blue-ribbon types are not adapted to
ordinary farm conditions, the hog
with the breeding back of him will pay
In the end.
SPRAY TO PREVENT
BLIGHT OF POTATO
Disease Is Most Destructive in
July and August—Amount
Required Per Acre.
Kurly potato blight Is liable to at
tack the potato crop at any time from
June until the crop is ripe, but is
most seriously destructive in July
and August. It attacks the foliage.
Professor Kohler of the Minnesota
experiment station doubts if it will be
profitable to spray early plantings of
early varieties.
If, however, others desire to do so
he advises spraying when plants are
small, and a continuance of the treat
ment every ten days until at least
ten per cent of the leaf surface is
dying, when it will be useless to
spray longer. In rainy weather spray
ing should be more frequent. Twenty
five to 35 gallons of Bordeaux per acre
will bo required for the treatment
when the plants are small, and as they
advance in growth the amount will
need increasing to 50, 60 or 75 gal
lons per acre.
Spraying for early blight on late
varieties of the Rural New’ Yorker
type of potatoes has proved profit
able at the Minnesota station. Spray
ing late varieties of the Rural New
Yorker type may be delayed until the
earliest planting of early varieties in
the locality shows signs of the pres
ence disease, when spraying
immediately applied at the
rate of 60 to 75 gallons of Bordeaux
per acre followed with spraying of
an equal amount every ten days in
good weather. In rainy weather spray
more frequently. *

Skyscraper Cities.
'Opposite the postofflee, In lower
Broadway, New York city, there has
Just been completed a building 780
feet high, which will provide working
quarters for 10,000 people. If all the
men and women employed in this one
“skyscraper” should attempt to go
uptown by the subway at the end of
the day it would take the ten-car ex
press trains, running at the intervals
now established, 15 minutes to haul
them away. Though this happens to
be the highest structure in the city,
there are others nearly as large; It
is one of the dozens that accommo
date 4,000 or 5,000 people each, and
one of hundreds that accommodate
more than a thousand each. The num
ber of these great buildings is steadily
growing.—World Work.
Let Them Wear Them!
It is observed that one or two taste
ful advocates of embellishment of the
male dress are writing to the papers
declaring that he should be allowed
by custom to wear not only bracelets,
but earrings, too, If they desire. Well,
who prevents thprn? They can wear
both If they wish. They can also do
better and wear nose rings, which
would be a more truly American adorn
ment, inherited from the real natives
of this country.—Pittsburgh Dispatch.

“The great men are all dead,” she

“So do I," he said.
Then she asked If he would be good
enough to conduct her to her husband.

ECZEMA ITCHED AND BURNED
R. F. D. No. 8, Maryville, Tenn.—
"My baby, when three months old,
took eczema on his face and head.
His head and one side of his face
wore almost in a solid sore. The ec
zema at first was kind of a rash and
then It broke out in water pimples
and they would burst and looked very
badly. It would itch and burn so bad
ly that he could not rest at all and
his hair just all fell out at once till
his head was perfectly bald. He could
not Sleep at night and was very cross.
“I tried remedies without any relief
at all; he only got worse all the time
until I used Cuticura Soap and Oint
ment. He had great relief the first
application. He was soon cured and
his hair began to grow back and now
he has just beautiful fine hair and
has no sign of eczema.” (Signed)

Bees Addicted to “Dope.”
Just add this one to all the queer
things that have happened in the year
of grace 1913 and believe it’s true, be
cause W. E. Baker, deputy uuditor of
the state of Ohio, says he can prove
it.
The honey bees near Fostoria, which
is Baker’s home town, have contract
ed the opium habit. Like the Chinese,
they get theirs from the poppy. Bak
er and many other residents of Fos
toria grow oriental poppies.
The bees have found this out, and
of late they are leaving acres of
clover blossoms to hunt out the poppy
beds. They work very vigorously for
an hour or so and then fall to the
ground apparently as stupefied as are
opium smokers after “hitting the
pipe.”—Fostoria (Ohio) dispatch to
New York Sun.
Youthful Slayer.
A case of “precocious violence" is
reported from Newark, N. J., where a

have been jealous of his baby sister,
two days old, struck the baby a blow
w-lth his fist and injured her fatally.
