Tlio progressive Farmer urges the ( farmers of the south not to lie so eager to sell their horses and mules ^noting a Oeorgin weekly to the effect that experience sows that these animals always are higher af ter a Dig war than they were before. 1 The demand created by the war in Europe is very strong, and prices f??r animals which come within the very rigid specifications are good. 1 The Progressive Farmer says it is a well known fact that the earnings of the farmers of any community are usually in proportion no-me numoer ??f horses they keep. Of course, it is poor economy to keep horses ami mules to a number lieyoml those needed, for idleness for them means a heavy expense without any return. It is likely. however, that did our southern farmers use more horses and mules they not. only would increase their gross incomes hut their net profits as 1 well. Handwork on a farm is expensive !al?or. and as a general proposition, it is safe to say. selling off liorscs and mules is had management. FOR SALE. Seer ml hand Piano?square grand? in good condition.

It Is however, necessary in order to make certain the sufficiency and regular supply of >ur people with breadstuffs until the next threshing of thenew harvest and is besides a necessity of life for the government and the nation. "The steps heretofore taken have proved themselves not far reaching enough to bring about the sparing use i>f our limited supplies of breadstuffs which, however, are in reality sufficient for our needs. In particular the measures hitherto introduced have not prevented the feeding of bread grain to cattle. "The present order gives us the certainly that our enemies' plan to starve Germany will be upset and assures us of plentiful bread until the next harvest."
