MULE GAINS POPULAF Two-Year-Olc What influence will the present tendency to mule breeding have upon the horse supply of the future? The high prices and the scarcity of mules have suggested to many farmers and horse raisers both North and South the desirability of raising mules from the standpoint of sales for profit. There is an increased demand for large mares to breed mules. This tendency is not confined to any par ticular locality. It is not alone in the northern horse raising states, but is spreading in the South. Carloads of large young mares have been pur chased and shipped into the heart of the southern states for the joint purpose of teams and mule raising. The mule is gaining in popularity for team work wherever the horse and mule are in use. The tendency to mule preference seems to be based ipon economy of service in team work on the farm and wherever horse power is demanded. The demand for more mules means mares employed in the raising of SEPARATOR IS USEFUL Invention Has Helped to Revolu tionize Dairy Business. One Great Advantage Is Centralization of industry-Whole-Milk Plant and Skimming Stations Are Fast Disappearing. (By J. 'M. CADWALLADER, Louisiana Experiment Station.) The cream separator is one of the great inventions that has helped to revolutionize the dairy business. Its effect has been especially noticeable upon the butter industry. Its ten dency has been to lower the Quality of butter, but this is not due to any fault in the principle of the cream separa tor but chiefly to the lack of proper care of the separator and in han dling the ecream. One great advantage resulting from the use of the sepa r-ator is centralization of the dairy business, and the whole-milk plant and skimming stations are disappear fng. Milk should be separated at a tem perature of 80 to 90 degrees and separation can be accomplished best as soon as the milk is drawn from the cow, for at that time it has a temperature neal- 98 dlegrees. There may be some makes of separators wvhich will separ-ate at a lowver tem perature than other-s, but the same machine will do more c!Ilcient work at a higher temperatur-e. Since bacteria are the cause of the souring of milk and cream and they have a luxuriant gr-owthn at high temperature, especially the undesi ra b)10 kinds, the cream should ho cooled as soon as possible to 60 dlegrees or lower, preferably 50 degrees F. This can be accomplished by passing the cream over special apparatus made for that purpose or, in case there is only a small amount of cream, it may be placed inl a tin vessel of some kind andI this vessel placed in cold running water, or ice water is prefer able. All containers or utensils which come in contact with the milk shouldi be washed thoroughly with boiling water and allowed to sun and air when not in use. The morning's cream should be cooled to the same temperature as the evening's cream and then they can be mixed without injury to the keeping quality of the cream. FORMATION OF GAS IN SILO Safest Plan to Run Some Silage into Pit Before Going in-Lantern Test is Recommended. A good way to determine if there is gas in the silo is to lower a lighted lantern. If it goes out it will not be safe to go into the silo. Gas may form. in a silo at the time of filling and for a week or so afterward. This gas is heavier than air and so will settle in the silo. As soon as filling the silo is started the falling silage will stir up enough air currents to drive out the gas. It is safest when filling pit silos Co run some silago into them before goning in, or nse the lantern toet ITY FOR FARM WORK I Mule Colt. mule colts, and this means the dimin ishing of the horse producing ability of the country. It is reasonable to estimate that not more than 60 per cent of all the increase of the horse population of the country are fe males. This 's ^ fair basis of the pos sibilities of the horse increase. If this producing element is interfered with in its kind there must necessarily result a decrease below normal condi tions. The diversion of any considerable number of mares from the produc tion of the horse kind to the produc tion of mules, a nonproducing ani mal, must sooner or later result in a great dearth of horses. The mule colt fever is spreading and farmers everywhere are talking the desirabil ity of mule raising just because the mule colt is a ready seller at a good price. It is well to keep in mind that increased production of mules means decreased production of horses as a producing proposition. - Twentieth Century Farmer. HARVESTER FOR KAFIR CORN implement invented by Oklahoman Is Especially Useful In Texas, Kan sas and Oklahoma. Semiarid lands, especially in Kan sas, Oklahoma and Texas, have been put more and more to kafir corn the past few years. as it came to be real ized that this was the best fodder and seed crop, and that ordinary corn was not a success there. The harvesting of the crop naturally brought up prob lems for machinery manufacturers. Here Is a kafir harvester. the inven tion of an Oklahoman. A tubular part is supported for oscillation above the main machine. It has a terminal Kafir Corn Harvester. yoke andl is made for vertical adjust ment, a driven shaft extending through the tubular part. A rocking frame is supportedl by the yoke and has opp)ositely extending arms, one of wvhich constitutes an operating lever. A rack segment is also sulportedi on the yoke, a stop member associated wvith the operating lever engaging this rack. A cutting appiaratus is on the other arm. PROTECTION FOR THE TREES in Fastening W-ire for Fence It Ia Best to Place Strip of Board Be tween Tree and Wire. It often happens in erecting wire fencing that one or more valuable shade trees are found to be in dlirect line with the posts, thereby necessi. tating a fastening of the wire to the tree. Ordinarily, if the tree is of only little value, the trunk is howedl slight ly and the vwire Is fastened directly to the tree, hut as this method of fas tening is very dlamaging to the tree, it Is seldom used where the value of the tree is considlered. WViro fastened directly to the tree soon becomes overgrown with bark, and1( this not only dlamages the tree, but the wire coming in contact with the acids of the tree, is also dam aged. This can he avertedl by using a strip of lumber between the fone and the trece. Nail a strip of lumber about flyve inches wide to the tree andl fasten the fence to this. This method of fastening dloes not injure the tree or bhe wire, and when the fence is removed the wire does net have to ho cut at the tree, as when it is fastenedl directly to the tree and overgrown with bark, Bees Are Necessary. The grower of small fruits, both the bush fruits and strawberries, needs the bees among the blossoms to fer tilize them and cause them to fruit fully as much, if not more, than the annle and pear grower, tiNDER SHELTERING FOLDS Aged Darky Felt Secure, Even in Haiti, With the Stars and Stripes at Hand. During one of the revolutions in Haiti a party of Americans made a tiding tour of the mountains. One morning a member of the party sud-( denly drew rein and pointed to a lone ridge where an old, tattered Stars and Stripes fluttered on a bamboo pole. "We must pay our respects," some one said. After some search they found a path that zigzagged up to the wild place. They followed it. and at last discov ered an aged negro sitting before his wattled hut smoking his pjpe, while he kept an eye on the flag. "What's the flag for?" someone asked.
