AdBICUIiTVDAI. Declin in ti Size of Firm Hones. A notabla feature ia the fastest trotting hones is thelrsmsttness and lightness. They are actually under aire for any other use than a light fcuggy or sulky. Many farmers breed' their mares to a trotting stallion in the hope some time to rear a colt whioh shall be worth thousands of dollars. This is one reason why farm horses are really too light for farm work. Another is the use of perfected machinery, by the use of which the work is made light for the teams. Bat there is work and plenty of it on every farm that requires size and staying powers in a horse. A middle sized team of two horses may be made some single day to plow two acres of land, but they cannot do it for a month hand running. A small team cannot do more than half the work at hauling and stack ing grain or hauling wook, lumber, stone or coal. ThercUhey are often overstrained and become - lame and useless, If these poiatsare doaceded,anl being self-evident tbey cannot be successfully controverted, the question arises. What is to be done? We say, breed for (not-to) larger horses. Normans, Fercherons. Ciydes and Shire horses are plenty, but "it would be poor -policy to breed a 1,400 pound horse to a diminutive mare of 850 or 900 pounds, in the hopes of raising a 1,100 or 1,200 pound horse. And ii one did it would be ill-shaped and cot by any means a model of form or power. The true and better way would be to obtain Urge, roomy, well-formed mares ; say! half-breeds of any of those breeds named, including the Cleveland bays, and then choose a sire not less than f ully 16 hands high, and weighing at least 1,200 pounds. Look for a short back, full loins, clean and not everlarge head and limbs ; flat rather than ronnd. See that he has a rather small head for his size, bright eyes, not too large ears, and that he car. ries his ears alert, with an intelligent ap preciation of what is going on around him, for "a horse talks with his ears," as every horseman well knows. It is a fact conceded by every intelligent breeder of hones, that the foal will have the general form, perhaps color, also, though not generally, of his sire and the disposition and temper of his dam. But it does by no means follow that the tern per of the sire Is to be ignored in the mat ter of breeding. It will be a good point gained if both sire and dam have amiable dispositions and a lively but intelligent temper. The bones, especially of the legs of the pure Arab, are small comparatively, but hard like ivory and very fine grained, while those bier round limbs and bones of a common dray horse are porous and brittle. Perhaps the objector will say here: "What shall we do with such horses as are recommended to be raised in this column? Almost every farmer raises horses for his own use." Very true. And yet you could hardly bring such horses young, clean, well broke to work to market before you would be asked their price and get it, too. Ez press companies, lumbermen, coal dealers, delivery wagons of every sort and in every business would Bnatcn them up quick, not to mention liverymen who need coachers and horses for heavy work. The "(xerman coachers, which are really only half-thoroughbreds, are too small and a "fad" that will not stay while the Perch erons and Normans are steadily, gaining, mere are ot these latter es tablishments which import a hundred sires or more each year and where you can make your selection from out of 300 horses, all about as much alike as a dozen eggs. Enterprising men who own such a ranch have their agents in Europe and these are keen, competent and allow no well bred horses to escape their notice. The value of these horses is so well known and understood that tne business is ever on the increase, and no backward steps have as yet been taken, and are not likely to be in the near future. Steam and electricity will do- their share of hauling, but a motor engine for plowing or for Overlaid taulingi en emmon roads is not yet in everyday use, and is not even in view lor immediate application. Even if invented and practical and I believe the problem will be solved some day they will be like the sewing machine ; they will not supplaot the hand or the- needle, but make more work for the ideal farm team. Chas. W. Murtfeldt, in The Re public. How Small Things Pay. ... There is yet in force a contract made be tween an institution of learning and a farmer who has two grades of shorthorn cows for the delivery oaee a day of a given number of quarts of milk. The detail here is notfciven in lb spirit of ta-ag, and is in fact, not extraordinary, but to show whathttentiOflHr'BO-eHed small things will do for the man who does not despise but who improves "the day of small things. It affords the writer great pleasure to make this recital here, because ii is within the power of man to go and do likewise. The first cow, now 7 years old, came fresh on September 10. The calf drew the milk until October 11,1892. From that date to December 19 there were sold 1,280 quarts of milk. The second cow, now 6 years old, dropped her calf Decem ber 15. The calf had all the milk in the natural way Until January 4-1893. From that da4e until May 28 -(date of this writing-,) 2,698 qnarte of oaUt.the product of both cows,' were sold, all at 4 cents per quart. There were used in the family say 200 quarts of milk;, because no other cows were kept. The' eows will be fresh again invSeptember and December, as last year. Their principal food daring winter was cornstalks and the usual ration of mill feed. They are at present in fair flesh and give-about 23 quarts of milk per day. To recapitulate : Afko4d from Oct. 11 to Dec. 19, 3, 1,289 qts Milk told from Jan. 4 to May 32, '83, 2,688 qu Milk used ia family, 900 qts Total, 4,187 qU 'Total milk sold at 4c per quart, f 187 49 Add to this price received for calves, 11 00 Total, 178 43 Thie,-for the round period roughly aver aged at Smooths, is a very fair showing. The contract still holds on, and about 20 quart per day are delivered at the institution.- Fanner reader, this is worthy of your special -attention. C W. Murt feidt, in The Republic. hpy On the first of February Mr. B B. iJynum put seven Wyandott hens in ampciosnrs separate from his other fowls aajf-wp to the first of this week ' those aerr hens-iaid r-670 eggr.---Greenville Reflector. Some Cottoa Figures. BT C. X. SANDMS. There was last year considerable dis cussion created by a statement from Hon. R. T. Nesbitt that cotton could be raised in Georgia for 3 cents per pound. The discussion was, in some of its phases, both interesting and amusing, since every in. telligent farmer could see at a glance that the Commissioner of Agriculture of Georgia had simply stated plain facts, and that cotton per te could not only be raised for 3 cents, but really for less. Inclosed I give you the cost of production and the proceeds from 1 1 16 acres in cotton. The cotton was grown by one of my neighbors, who is the village blacksmith.' The work, including horse hire for plow ng, was all employed by the day, and was paid tor at tne regular wages lor such work, which would necessarily come a little higher than it would cost the farmer who owned his horse and employed his help by the year. Below 1 give you the figures, as taken from his day book : 300 pounds fertilizer, f 3.7 & Preparation and planting and plowing four times, 3.00 Picking 1,600 pounds, 4.80 Ginning and hauling, 1.25 Total, 112.80 The weight of the bale was 565 pounds. and sold for 9 cents per pound. The hoeing be did mm sen, in tee morn ing before time to go to his shop, but bad this been hired, it would have added only 1.50 to the cost of the crop. This added in would bring the whole cost up to $14.30, or 2 60 113 cents per pound. The main dinerenoe in tne cost ot cot ton production is the difference between good land and poor land, wiln some al lowance for the sooDd judgment and ex ecutive ability of the individual farmer. Southern Cultivator. grThe majority of farmers work hard and accomplish about all that they think it is possible to do, says the Agricultural Kpitomist, but many ot tbem could learn a profitable lesson by visiting some first class manufacturing establishment and observe the clock-like regularity with which the business is conducted every one on time, no waste of material, every new improvement or method of work taken advantage of at once. There are no little leaks, waste of power, etc. Even every foot of floor is utilized. Now, how many farmers even attempt to apply such business principles to their work? But they are also manufacturers. Many of them are going on in just the same way that their grandfathers did raising the same crops, in the same way,-keepicg about the same stock, and leeding it in tne same manner, and they are putting up with the same little leaks waste of man ure, waste of feed, waste of labor in land not properly fitted for cropping, and yet they make the farm pay : but now mucn better might they do with better methods?
