This  cow  was  born  February,  1906;

1910,  by  Pereival  Roberts,  Jr.,  I’ens-

$1.50  and  up.  Some  barns  are  plenty 
warm  enough  for  a  horse  without  a 
blanket,  but  not  everyone  has  such  a 
barn.  Also  note  that  some  of  the  horses 
have  been  running  out,  and  their  hair  is 
long  and  rough,  the  blanket  would  smooth 
this  out  and  make  them  look  a  great  deal 
better.  The  next  thing  would  be  to  have 
a  warm  and  comfortable  bed;  straw 
would  be  the  best,  with  shredded  corn

Better  Butter 
YOUR  HERD  should  average  at 
least  500  lbs.  of  butter  per  year. 
A  good  Jersey  herd  will  do 
even  better— 600  lbs.  per  year,  and 
the  butter  will  be  of  the  finest  flavor, 
texture,  and  color.  There  are  many 
individuals  of  this  breed  producing 
1100  lbs.  They  make  good  use  of 
every  ounce  of  feed,  do  not  require 
fancy  feeding,  mature  early,  thrive 
in  any  climate,  are  steady  producers, 
are  beautiful  and  gentle.  They  pay 
big  dividends  on  the  highest  priced 
land.

turn  to  loosen  up  their  hair  and  put  them 
in  good  condition?  Some  of  them  have 
been  running  out  around  stacks,  and  the 
hair  is  shaggy  and  rough.  Will  you  tell 
us  what  you  would  do  with  horses  of  this 
kind  to  get  them  into  shape?  Would 
fodder  next.  Failing  to  have  these  then 
we  would  use  leaves,  pine  needles,  or 
sawdust,  hut  make  sure  that  the  bedding 
is  dry.  whatever  is  used,  also  be  liberal 
with  it.  People  want  a  warmer  bed  in 
Winter  than  in  Summer  aud  the  same 
holds  good  with  a  horse.  Each  morning 
these  horses  should  be  well  curried  and 
brushed ;  then  we  would  drive  or  work 
them  lightly  each  day  that  the  weather 
would  permit,  just  enough  for  exercise. 
If  there  is  no  work  then  hitch  them  dou¬ 
ble  and  drive  four  or  five  miles.  With  a 
lot  of  horses  it  would  take  one  man’s 
time  to  drive  them  all,  but  it  would  well 
pay  the  cost  in  looks  and  action  of  the 
horse  at  the  sale. 
As  to  feeding,  I  would  have  a  lump  of 
salt  where  the  horse  could  get  it  at  any¬ 
time.  We  always  have  a  lump  of  rock 
salt  in  the  manger.  Then  always  offer 
them  water  before  each  meal ;  if  a  horse 
will  drink  in  the  morning  before  he  is  fed 
is  seems  to  have  a  very  good  effect.  How¬ 
ever,  don’t  use  ice  water;  the  water  as 
drawn  from  a  pump  is  about  right.  For 
feeding  we  would  not  want  anything  hot¬ 
ter  than  the  clean  oats,  peas  and  barley; 
believe  that  we  would  have  these  ground 
or  crushed.  As  to  the  proportions  of 
each  the  feeder  will  have  to  be  guided  by 
the  amounts  of  each  he  -has  on  hand. 
Then  perhaps  some  of  tlie  horses  will  not 
like  the  pens.  Add  100  pounds  of  lin¬
