The too common practice of allowing colts to go "unbroken" un- til 'such time as they are re- quired to perform the functions of &- horse in the spring, is irrational, and is unfair to the animal. Colts should not be 'broken'; they should be taught or educated. In the unhandled, or unbroken colt, the muscular, respiratory and nervous system (the organs whose functions are taxed in the performance of the | ordinary functions of a horse) are weak and undeveloped from lack of function. Hence, when the unpre- pared animal is asked to perform ordinary horse labor, he has neither any knowledge of what he is required to do, nor the muscular nor respir- atory tone that is necessary for its satisfactory performance; therefore, unless very carefully handled, and very little work done for the first | two or three wyeks, trouble of var- { lous natures that will probably ne- cessitate complete rest for a varl- able time is very liable to result. Hence, a regular course of prepara- tion during the late winter and early spring months, when the time of both man and horse is not very valu- able, should be given in order to have the colts in such condition 'when time becomes valuable, that they will be able to perform a reasonable amount of work with satisfaction to the driver and safety to themselves. This course should be commenced 'at least six weeks before regular work is expected to commence. They ' Should Be Harnessed and Bridled Early. The colt or colts should first be taught to wear harness and bridle by being allowed to run fred for a few hours daily in a box stall or pad- dock with the harness on. It is then good practice to match each with a handy, smart and good-natured horse, or if necessary a pair of colts { together, and teach them to drive, | obey the words of command, stand | when asked to, ete. When they have become reason- | ably handy without being hitched, | they should be hitched to a sleigh or wagon. Care should be taken to see that the harness fits properly. This applies especially to collars. The collars in which they are expected to work later on should be worn. Each should have his own, and it should fit properly, not being too wide, so as to allow a rolling motion, nor yet sufficiently narrow to pinch at any point. * The bearing surface should conform thoroughly to the surfaces of the neck and shoulder with which it comes in contact, except at the bottom, where sufficient vacant space to allow the introduction of a man's fingers should exist, Exercise or Light Work a Benefit. The colt or pair should be given daily exercise or light work. Com- mencing with an hour or two the first day and gradually increasing the amount, until they will be able to perform a full day's reasonable exer- tion without showing signs of weari- ness. The amount of grain given should also be gradually increased in proportion to, the work or exercise given. By such usage the muscu- lar, respiratory and nervous systems gradually gain tone, the muscles with which the harness, especially the collar, comes in contact, gradual- ly become hardened and increased in power of resistance, hence become much less liable to soreness. In many cases, on account of the hardening of the muscles, they lose bulk; hence a collar that may have fitted per- fectly at first, may now be too large. This should be attended to either by providing fresh collars or filling the extra space of the old 'ones with sweat pads. While we prefer collars without sweat pads, the latter is much better than vacant space.-- J. H. Reed, V.8.,, 0. A. College, Guelph. Methods of Keeping Cow Records. Four things are necessary for keeping cow records: 1. A monthly milk sheet, ruled so that there shall be a column for re- cording the weight of the morning and evening milking of each cow for each day of the month, though some use a sheet ruled for three days only, and estimate the weight of milk giv en for the month from these three days, which may be consecutive or on the 1st, 10th and 20th of the month, making ten day periods between. 3. A milk scale, preferably one having a dial-face and two hands, one of which shows the net weight of milk in the pail, when properly set. This scale costs about five dollars. = 8. A four to eight-botile Babcock test, where it is desired to know what each cow's milk tests in fat. will cost from eight to twelve dollars complete. , 4. The fourth and most important requirement is, "The-will-to-do." Without this, milk * sheets, scales, testers, etc., are valueless. By having scale, sheet, pencil, sample bottles properly labelled, ete. all conwen- ently arranged, it takes but little time to keep a record of each milking cow in the herd. We would add a fifth need, which is, some form of permanent record book for monthly totals and tests, as milk sheets, and notes or records of testing, are likely to be lost and not available for reference. But if these are recorded once a month in a per- manent form, they will' prove a source of help in breeding, feeding and weeding dairy cows--H. MN Dean, O. A. College, Guelph.

A t {under four heads: It Helps to.Be Near Cities -- The Labor Question Still a Serious Problem -- How to Restore Damaged Pastures. (Contributed by Ontario Department of Agriculture, Toronto.) This question will be discussed Climate, Soil, Labor and Transportation. The Factor of Climate. So far as climate is. concerned apples can be grown coimercially 'in any part of Old Ontario, south of a | line drawn from Parry Sound to Ottawa; in fact, there are commer- cial orchards producing fruit at a profit considerably farther north than this. - Many people think of commercial apple orchards as being necessarily confined to the milder parts of the province, and to the lake districts, but the fact is worth emphasizing that we have varieties of apples suitable foi commercial culture in every county of Old On- tario. The winter hardiness of the many: varieties grown throughout Ontario is now very well established, and it is possible to select varieties which will be hardy for any district. | Late and Early Frosts. The most serious climatic diffi- culty in the Province of Ontario is the occurrence of late frost in spring, and early frost in fall. Other diffi- culties of a climatic nature can be largely overcome by the selection of suitable varieties, or by careful dis- crimination with regard to soil, ele- vation, aspect, etc. It may be point- ed out, however, that frosts are more common and more severe over large aress of flat country than where the topography is rolling or hilly. Large areas of some of the southern counties of Ontario are, therefore, more or less unsuited to commercial apple orcharding because of their flat character. A more roll- ing country is much to be preferred, so that orchards can be made safer from frost by the better air drainage afforded. Suitable Soil In Every County. So far as soils are concerend, it may be stated that there is an abundance of land in every country suitable for apple growing. Well drained land is essential for successful orcharding, and there is plenty of soil of this type to be had in almost every district. Summing up soil and "climate, it may be said that no province or state in North America has so large an area so favorable in soil and climate for apple growing as has the Pro- vince of Ontario. If this statement is true it becomes obvious that the present distribution of apple orch- ards in Ontario is dependent on other factors. Most Profitable Near Cities. Transportation is the most import- ant factor having to do with the distribution of commercial apple orchards in Ontario. In other words, the commercial apple orchards are located within reach of transporta- tion facilities, and the better these facilities have been with relation to large cities and to the developing markets of the prairies the more rapid has been the development of commercial orcharding. A location near a large city may be desirable, but if better soil and climate are to be found at a distance, the most dis- tant location is likely to be preferred, provided transportation facilities are good. Some districts in Ontario possess excellent conditions of soils and eli- mate, but are lacking in transporta- tion facilities, and until facilities are available little development can take place in commercial orcharding. The Labor Situation. The labor situation for some years has been acute, but has become more normal during the present year. For commercial orchard operations on a sizable basfs, it is necessary to be within reach of a temporary supply of labor for apple picking. Other- wise, it becomes necessary to build dwellings for men and their families so that a supply of labor may be always available. The difficulties of the labor situ- ation at picking time can be lessened considerably by the planting of varfe- ties whieh ripen in succession, and by taking care to get the right pro- portion of each. A large area of one variety ripening at one time is ex- tremely. dificult to handle. -- J. W. Crow, O. A. College, Guelph. How to Restore Damaged Pastures. Andrew Boss, veteran farm man- ager with the Minnesota Experiment Station, says such pastures can be saved to some extent by proper care. Where the acreage of pasture is suf- ficient and with a little to spare, many of the bare or thinner spots can be top dressed with good barn- yard manure to advantage. The top dressing will protect the roots some- what, and in the course of a month or two a decided improvement in quantity and quality of grass will be noted. "It is good practice," says Mr. Boss, "to divide the pasture into two fields, if possible, and pasture alter- nate weeks, or for alternate longer periods, depending on the quantity of grass and the condition it is in. A part of the pasture should be allow- ed to make good growth and be held in reserve until the hot weather of July and August comes on. During the fly season it is difficult enough to keep stock in good condition even when they are on good pasture, and no pains should be spared to have at least one or two good pasture flelds for this season." _ Strawberry runners should be spaced as evenly as possible to se- cure most fruit. po CASTORIA InUse For Over 30 Years > Always bears the Signature of iid n even row that will give the ~~ ily, 3 RY b ~ \ Win 7 x - { pe THESE ROCKS lem | apenas Coprvight WY.
