She is going to be a short-period eow, and when the period is too short there are not values in her from the point of view of the milker for profit. It is a waste of time and temper to persevere with a cow which is a poor doer at the pail; usually she is no gooa anywhere but at the feed. When selecting a well-bred mare, observe that the hair of the mane and tail is fine and perfectly straight. Wavy or coarse hair denotes bad blood. There will always be a good demand for big. weighty, useful horses, and breeders will make no mistake in raiding them. Whatever a man soweth that should he well harrow before the birds get the seed. This is especially true of wild oats.

There is no doubt about it that one ] of the machines on the farm which pavs for itself out of increased profits is the cream separator. When necessary, the hair about the udders and tails of cows should he clipped, in order that they may more easily be kept clean. The man who leaves, his machinery lying about the place when it is not in use is one of the profit-makers for the machine builders. . ; It is simply wasting money to put la. worn-out aged mare to a good horse t*m&mmvm&E.
