There has too long been an unreasonable prejudice against mules, and yet they may be made one of the most valuable eco- nomic features of the farm. Every up to date farm sliould have a small flock of sheep to furnish an economical and health- ful meat supply for the table. Do not allow the sows that are suckling pigs to run down in con- dition. Raise you own work teams and one occasionally for your neigh- bor. Shiftless, slipshod methods will not do at all with sheep. 00000D000000000000W00000000 ©000000000000000000000000 ©0000000000000000 ECONOMY OF HEAVY HORSES ON THE FARM The advantages draft horses. have over light horses in farm work are numerous, writes a correspondent of the Rural New Yorker. The tractive power horses can exert is governed by weight, strength and temperament. Under favorable conditions five draft horses, weighing 1,600 pounds or over, will pull a two plow gang of fourteen inch plows over a little more than twenty miles, averaging from five to five and a half acres per day. It will take seven horses thiat weigh from 1,100 to 1,200 pounds to do the same ‘work, and it is not practicable to work seven horses on one gang plow with the ordinary class of farm labor. Be- sides this, the heavy horses sell more readily and at higher prices. Hardiness, easy keeping qualities, docility, great weight, power and en- durance, clean legs and good feet are the main points which have carried Percherons into popular favor. Equally We Want to Make Everyone Happy 0. G. SCHWANDT The Art Poster Stamp Store 120 Third St., Bemidji, Minn. One of the four great draft breeds —Percheron, Clyde, Shire and Bel- glan—the Percheron is by far the most popular in the United States and is rapldly growing in favor in Canada. Approximately two-thirds of all the pure bred draft horses in the United States are Percherons, and Percheron blood predominates in the grade horses as well. The stallion shown is a pure bred Per- cheron. SUBSCRIBE FOR THE PIONEER important is the prepotency of the Per- cheron when crossed on common mares of nondescript character. The hardiness of the Percheron is shown by the fact that he does well in hot or cold climates, with or without shelter. His easy keeping, good feed- ing qualities make his maintenance much cheaper than in the case of horses that are fretful—“bad doers”’— as horsemen say. It also makes it cheaper to put him in shape for mar- ket and contributes materially to his value in everyday work. Great cart- age and teaming companies want a horse that flanks down well and that is a good doer, for they have learned by bitter experience that a horse lack- ing these qualities soon goes off feed when put into heavy work and must be laid off for a rest. The horse that RUBBER WHAT? BANDS, of course. | 1able. walks off in the collar like a veteran when first hitched, that does not fret at unusual sights or sounds and that is quick to learn to obey, is a pleasure to handle. Such characteristics we term docility—good horse sense—and this the Percheron possesses in super- lative degree. Weight and Muscle.—Mature Perche. ron stallions usually range from 16.2 to 17.3 hands in height and weigh from 1,700 to 2,100 pounds when in breeding condition—not fat. Mares range from 16 to 17 hands as a rule and weigh from 1,600 to 2,000 pounds in working fesh. This height and weight, due to heavy bone, powerful sinew and mas- sive muscles, give the Percheron power in the collar. This is the original rubber band store. We have them in every size you may de- sire and the price is always right. ASK FOR ASSORTMENT No. 9004 "‘""’""' 0 FIVE YEARS. usm qu Rape Growing For Sheep. Ground for growing rape for sheep should be plowed early in spring and worked once a week till about the first of June, when the first sowing is made. A second sowing is made two or three weeks later. The ground should be worked till it is quite firm, and it should be enriched so as to make the rape grow thriftily. Sow in drills twen- ty-efght inches apart, using two and three-quarter pounds of seed per acre. If sown with every hoe of the drill about four pounds of seed per acre will be needed. Clover sod on corn stubble makes a good place to sow rape. If cultivated it will do to turn sheep on in five or six weeks from sowing. It is a safe and cheap sheep feed and leaves the ground in fine con- dition. It is frequently used for fit- ting sheep for exhibition.—Farm Jour- nal.
