RUBBER SHOES FOR HORSES
Growing P9pularlty of Soft Heels for
Human Feet Results in Similar

The growing popularity of rubber
spring heels for human feet has re
sulted in a somewhat similar idea be
ing adopted for horses, although in
the latter instance the resistance of

EXCELLENT FOR LITTLE PIGS
Rape Has Bloating Effect on Cattle
and Sheep and They Must Be Grad
ually Accustomed to it.
(By J. 1. SHEPPERD.)
Rape is cominonly sown either
broadcast or in rows 30 inches apart,
and cultivated. I like the row system.
When it is sown broadcast alone, it is
put in at the rate of five pounds of
rape seed per acro of the Dwarf Essex
variety; allowed to grow until it is
about 14 inches high, and then pas
tured down with pigs or sheep as the
grower may desire.
It is advisable to have two pasture
lots of it, so that the stock can be
changed to a fresh one, while the one
which has been fed down until the
stalks are about five inches high and
Do leaves remain on them can grow
up again. It will take a very short
while for it to throw out new leaves
and be as heavy a growth as it was be
fore it was pastured down. When it
-''mwn in drill rows and cultivated,
clent.- WK.
Scient. - ,! ated as corn or po
tatoes would be until it is so that it
shades the ground completely between
the rows.
Rape will stand a vast amount of
stable manure, and give a surprising
growth of green feed. It is excellent
for growing ilgs and for brood sews
and their litters.
* It is frequently sown in a mixture
with field pens, barley and millet. It
is the only one of the list of plants
that will grow after being fed down
and while it makes a rather quick
growth after it is pastured off the first
time, it springs up and supplies a vast
( mount of forage after the other
plants have once been fed off and
given a chance to grow without being
* crowded.
tI has a very severe bloating effect
on cattle and sheep and they must
be very gradually accustomed to it be
fore they can be allowed to pasture
on it as long as they would naturally
do. WVhen it is damp wvith dlew or
light rain, it causes bloating to be very
much worse and to comle on more
quickly. They can gradually be accus
tomed to it as they are to clover and1(
alfalfa, so that it will do them no
harm. It causes no trouble when feed
ing pigs oi' horses on it.
Feed for Work Animals.
Any farm animal that (does a lnrge
amount of wvork needs and~ wants a
goodl supply of feed. Ihard work
makes a good appetite whether the
animal be a work horse pulling a
plow or a milk cow filling a big pail
twice a day. Ilothi are machines and
bo0th must have fuel. Upon the quan
tity and utilization of thuis fuel will
depe~nd tho amount of wvork done. A
good milk cowv must he a good feeder
and ijien she must have a good sup
ply of the right kind of feed.
Feeding Experiment Finished.
The feeding experiment with 40 cat
tle at the Iowa experiment station has
just been finished. The object was to
ascertain the value of ensilago to the
feeder. It proved less valuable the
last two months than clover, indicat
ing that the fattening steer requires
more concentrated and drier food aft
er the first three monuths of the feed
ing period.
Grain for Draft Colt,
Don't forget that yotur draft colts
neec! some grain this summer. You
may let them eat with the mares, but
it is hotter to provide a place where
they miay eat undcisturbed and get the
amount they ought to have. There is
nothing better than oats for young
f colts, but it is a good idea, also, to
give a little corn. That is the wvay
to make big horses out of them.
Salt for the Pigs.
There shotld~ he placed in every pig
, nd nasture a box w'.th salt, char
ked lime, bone-meal and
shes, so the pigs can help
at will.
INDIVIDUAL PENS FOR HOGS
Many of Best Swine Growers Are Pro
viding Themselves With Two Types
of Houses for Animals.
Whether the lari house with Indi
vidual pens is bettor than the individ
ual cot is an open question, perhaps
largely a matter of individual prefer
ence. Each has its distinct advan
tage which cannot be secured in the
other. Many of the best hog raisers
are now providing themselves with
both types of houses, and this seems

to be the most satisfactory method.
It is no more expensive in the long
run, for all the buildings can be kept
in use the year around. In such cases
the large houses are used for farrow
ing quarters, and as soon as the pigs
are a week or two old, or as soon as
the weather permits, the sows and lit- A
ters are removed to the individual
:ots. During the remainder of the V
rear the large houses are utilized for Cm
ileeping quarters. Q

Cement floors are best for feeding le

If sews are expected to raise a fall u1

pigs at from eight to ten weeks old.
If sows and jpigs are Properly fed

Some breedlers claim that six or
seven weeks is long enough for the
pigs to remain with the sow, but this,
I think, is extreme.
As long as the breeding of a sow
