This is another frequent cause ot loss. It a farmer has more horses than are required to carry on the work of the farm. he should sell those he does not need, if a figure at all reasonable can be obtained. The cow which does not yield Bn- ough milk or butter to pay a good protit on her keep should be dispos- ed ot, and her place filled by an- other. A few weeks' use ot the scales and Babcock teeter will usu- ally furnish some surprising re- sults in this direction.- Improper Feeding of Stock.

How delir- as a general proposition it may be said that after a well defined plan or action has been determined on it should be rigidly carried out. As more knowledge is gained, or new ideas acquired, it will be necelsarm to make changes in the routine, but no change should be made without due deliberation. Ml work should be carefully planner] in advance and all tools and implement: gotten ready so that there may be no delay when operations actually begin. I Use ot' Time Tables. l All men employed on the farm should have well-defined duties to perform, so that their time may be used to the best advantage. A good system provides for the feel.. ing of stock at regular hours each day. When stock are fed and wat- ered at regular hours. they be- come accustomed to the regularity of feeding. and thrive much bet- ter {inn if fed at different hours‘ on (mi-h succeeding day. Care of Implements. A very common source of loss is found in the neglect of expensive farm implements and tools. These are left lying In tho fields where they have been used. subject to ail the lnclemencies of the weather, which are more destructive than actual use. Small tools are tre- quently lost, and larger imple- ments rust or rot. There should be a place on every farm where im- plements may be kept under cover. and none should he left outsideI “hen not in use. A workshop should! also be provided in connection with: tho tom-house, so that during rainy days or other slack periods.‘ implements may he painted and! necessary repairs made. Much time" is lost by farmers, during busy sea-i sons. such as seeding. haying and harvest, because a bolt or some! other small part has been lost. and a trip to blacksmith shop or: foundry is necessary to replace it. This waste of valuable time might: be prevented by alittle forethought or examination of the Implement before it Was required tor use. In many cases Implements are pur- chased, which the farmer could welt do without. In order to my. forming would he conducted in the tune way u oth- er mane-s enterprises.

Some sources of ions are hero given which will readily suggest others: lack or System. _ Ono of tho chief leaks on many farms is the loss of time and en- ergy because the management is not carrlodgut on any definite system.
