FEED CEQUinE"ENTS r'l Horsti at Heavy Work Need a (Prepared by- the United SUM Depart. j. , , mant ot Agriculture.) ' ; There Is much mpre to feedlnf old Dobbin thnn simply giving him a little corn and oats and then allowing htm to flU op on whatever kind of hay Is avail able. Close observation Is needed more In feeding horses than any other class of live stock. Horses of the same weight mny have dlfTerenbfeed requlre ,'ments which main It necessary . to study the Individuality of the animals. 'It the horse Is not doing- well on a retion a slight change should be made, but nn abrupt change may cause diges tive disturbances. . , ' -; To -.TumMi -energy for work,' the horse must be fed. In excess of what Is needed for bodily maintenance. - The amount of feed needed ; for mainte nance Is about two-thirds of that re quired for a horse doing moderate work.' , If the wprk' calls for more en ergy than that In the ration, the stqred fnp energy of the body fat, or other body tissues, will be drawn upon with fa consequent loss In body weight and energy:, If such feeding Is continued, i the horse will be so weakened that he .will be nnable to perform his work (profitably, and also will be especially (liable to disease.,. ; s. , " i Hi Universal Feed. ' ; ; . No feed or combination of feeds .win jmeet conditions in all parts of ' the country, and no feed or mixture Is suit able for all classes of horses. In choos .Ing a ration for a horse, select the oty that meets his requirements, whether for growth, maintenance, work, breed ing or fattening., Then estimate the ' amount of feed needed, .and try out tne ration. , it may then appear that too little is being fed, or that the ra tion may be. changed somewhat for economy or efficiency. . If a number of horses are kept, different rations may be tested on different animals, and the best one; selected for general use, but Individual feeding gives the best results. - " If feeds deficient in protein are fed.

FOR HORSES DIFFER 1U 2l Ration With a High Percentage of Grain. an excessive amount must be con sumed In order that the system may secure the required emonnt of protein, and a waste of feed will be the result It is essential, therefore, to use a bal anced ration one containing protein and carbohydrates in such proportion that they will meet the animal's need without waste. ' ' Mere Grain for Light Horses. Horses of the light breeds, used for plessure or racing, need more, grain and less hay than do horses doing.yfow or heavy Work. Oats easily rank first among the feeds Tor light horses, and may be aupplemented with crusHcd or soaked barley and bran. Corn is too fattening to constitute the bulk of the concentrates lor light horses. - It .may be used, however. If supplemented with linseed 'meal or bran. A mixture of one of the leguminous hays, such .as alfalfa or clover, feff with timothy or other hay will famish the roughage. A larger quantity of hay should be al lowed for horses 'less actively employ ed, . and should be fed' mostly at night . "One pound of hay and from one to one and one-fourth pounds of grain to 100 pounds of live weight will be sufficient for such light horses at moderate work. . ; The quantity of feed for. the work horse depends on the amount ot work and. on the speed at which It Is per formed; a horse requires considerably more feed when working at the trot than at the walk. It is a good rule to, allow, 1.1 pounds of grain and one and" one-fifth pounds of bay"" to every 100 pounds live weight for hon-e at moderate weight At this rats s 1,200-pound horse would require 13 pounds of grain and 14t pounds M bay a day. If the work is severe, the quantity of grain should be increased The horse at hard work requires on and one-fourth to one and one4frd pounds of grain for 100 poundt, live weight The hay, however, should no be more thnn oe and one fourth'pound for an equal amount of live weight. . The Way It Often Goes. A. man paid another man $50 one day last week to let him take his place on the waiting list for a Ford touring car. ' Price do rise to be sure. "Used to' not cost anything to get on the waiting list for a new Ford. You could get ntrht up on the top notch on the waiting list and it did not cost a penny. But the man who paid his $50 did not wince nor cry aloud at the price he had to pay. But he did kick like everthing when he had to pay a farmer 40 cents a dozen for eggs and 50 cent for i lit tle pat of butter. Monroe Enouirer. '' The Best Advertisement. : 4 ' ' ','" ' ' !

' We think It probable that the profiteering is one of the causes of the present high prices; but by far more important in boosting prices and keeping them high have been, first, decreased production, due to so many men being in the various armies of the world, and engaged in producing munitions of war instead of being gainfully emqlqyed; and. second, to a greatly inflated currency- that is, a great increase in the per capita circulation of money, with a . corresponding cheaping of the dollar. We believe in the severst punish ment for profiteering where jt exists, but this alone is going to prove dis appointing as a means, of lowering prices, it is a fundamentle econo mic law that high prices are their own antidote. Economically speak ing, the purpose of high prices is to Stimulate production and discourage consumption. These two powerful forces, once they come into full play, are bound to be effective in lower ing the general price level. At the same time, owing to the immense sums borrowed by our own and' Other governments, currency infla tion must of necessity continue with us for years, and this factor will serve in considerable measure to hold prices up even with economy' and increased production. In too many" instances, we fear, the enforced economics of war times have beerj replaced by orgies of ex- travagance. People are too prone to buy, regardless of need or price. It ia too much of a silk-shirt, silk- stocking age, with too little of the stern, old-fashioned economy and shift that are the very roots of ma terial success. As a nation, as long as we are extravagant and wasteful we have no right to complain of high prices. What we need is a program of hard work and economy. It is the only way out Progressive Farmer. A Real Man's Daily Prayer. In order to live so tnat there will be no regrets a clevage to the fol lowing ideal wouldn't be amiss in the thoughtful endeavor to make the tomorrows always greater and more eternal worth while than the yesterdays: , 'Teach me that sixty minutes make an1 hour, sixteen ounces one pound and 100 cents $1. Help me so to live that I can lie down at night with a clear conscience, with out a gun under my pillow and un hauuted by the faces of those to whom I have brought pain. Grant that I may earn my mea! ticket on the square, and that in earning it I may do unto others as I would . have them do ' unto me.- Deafen me to the jingle of tainted money and to the rustle of unholy skirts. Blind me to' the faults of the other fellow, but reveal to me my own, Guide me so that each night when 1 look across the dinner table at my wife, who has been a blessing 'to me, I will have nothing to conceal.

'2nd re ICMuak Tobacco Warehouse MUM yd Got tl: v Highest Do!lai STATE HAY GET ROAD MACHINERY Senator Simmons Trying to Clarify Situation So North Carolina Will Reap Benefits. Washington, D C Confusion has arisen here over the disposal of sur plus road building machinery owned by the war department, which was originally intended for distribution through the department of agricul ture to the several states. The cur rent pnstoffice appropriation bill au thorizes the war department to fur nish this road building machinery to the department of agriculture, which might under certain conditions sup ply it to the states for the good roads campaign. However, the sun dry civil appropriation bill sub sequently passed carried a rider for bidding one government department to transfer to another government department material free of charge This is construed by the judge ad vocate general of the army to abro gate the law relating to road build ing machiney. The department of ag riculture disagrees with this ruling, but meanwhile the allotment to states including North Carolina, is held up Frank Page, ohairman of the North Carolina Highway Comis- sion, has been in correspondence with Senators Simmons and Over man regarding the mixup. and con tends that the road-building plans in tne larneel btate nave been held up becausa of the controversy in the department here. Senator Simmons notified Chair man Page that a movement is on foot in Congress to clarify the law and that Representative Kahn, chair- man of the military affairs committee of the house, will introduce a bill next week specifically authorizing transfer of rond building machinery by the war department to the de partment of agriculture and its good roads bureau. If the Kahn bill does not become a law before the war department plans to begin selling its surplus machinery, Senator Simmons will attempt- to get through Congress arf emergency joint resolution holding up these sales until the entire mat ter can be settled. Going Back To Old Time. The repeal of the daylight savings law had a rocky road to travel, but it has at last made the journey to our entire satisfaction. It was first passed as a rider to the agricultural bill and vetoed by the president. At that time the house had already passed a direct repeal measure upon whiph the Senate had never acted. When the president vetoed the measure the house attempted to pass it over his veto as a rider to the ag ricultural bill; but failed to get the necessary votes. The Senate pass ed the direct repeal measure and sent it up to get another veto. Fol lowing this the bill was passed by both branches of Congress over the veto of the president. So after Oc tober of this year, we will turn our time pieces back one hour with the happy feeling that we will not have to bother them again to adapt our selves to an artificial time. We are persuaded that this act of Congress meets with general approbation. , - MILCH COW FOR SALE!-Good milker; has calf six months old. For further particulars and price apply to A. P. Bobbitt; Route 4, Nashville, N. C. - M E R S ! DO NOT WASTE YOURJARNINGS The People Who Spend Too Freely Will Never Be Prepared For a Crisis When It Comes. Farmers will this month begin to sell what they have made on their farms and many of them will handle light much money during the selling season. What ought we to do with our money? We should firs settle outstanding obligations. Let debts be paid first and then it can be seen what is ieft. After debts are paid the money as it comes in should be placed in the banks for safe keeping and for good investments. If op portunities are offered for what seems good investments it might Drove a mistake to jump too soon. The matter can be taken under con sideration and careful inquiry can be made to see if it really is a good investment. Farmers should not be too ready to invest their money. To do so often means losing it and be sides, keeping some money is a good plan as you might come to a place where it would be needed. We do not understand our people. We do not know why there are so many people so ready to get clear of their money. They do not seem to be able to catch on to the saving habit at all. Why cannot the people of thia sec tion save as they ilo in other parts of the country? Whv cannot the American people save as well as the people of Europe and other coun tries? Think about how helpless we were in 1914 and 1915 when farmj products prices went so low and just j because we had not saved and laid up something for such a period of depressed prices The people who spend freely will never be prepared for a crisis when it comes, nor are they ready to take up real bargains when they are in reach. Real bar gains will otter tnemselves to the men who save their money and are prepared' to take them. Save your money this fall. Smithfield Herald. Clean-Up, Week Is Oct. 6th To The Insurance Department is lay ing much stress right now on Clean Up Week, October 6 to 11, which Commissioner Young hopes to make the most effective on record. October 9th is designated by sta tute as Fire Prevention Day in North Carolina and for this reason the week in which this date falls has been set apart as clean up week for the entire State: It is also observed nationally. The saving of lives and property by the prevention of fires is an ad vantage second only to the benefits of improved sanitary conditions, in the opinion of officials of the depart ment. An intensive clean up week has a tendency, it is pointed out, to check the recurrence of influenza and householders, business men and manufacturers are especially urged to give close attention to the elimi nation of waste of every character that might start or help along afire.
