The most important factor in the care and management of farm work horses is feeding. Regularity and care are of primary import ance Irregular feeding, or sudden chances in rations, frequently re sult in digestive disorders. Any i hance in the ration should be made gradually, because an im mediate change in feeds, for ex ample, from oats to corn, or from old ha to new hay. may result in colic. Trash or dirt must be re moved from the grain box before each meal and chaff and refuse Je. mid from the manger before i!-e night feeding of hay. The feeder must also see to it that the lied u ed is of good grade. Musty, -1 . i , i i i i ! . or dirtv feed may cause the horse to get off feed and not be ill for work.

Actually, the average American family Is now getting twice as much electricity for its money as it did 20 years ago.

I special feeds when necessary if the J best results are to be obtained. Inasmuch as home-grown or - locally grown crops generally con j stitute the most economical basis 'for the ration, the feed will vary with such crops. The most com mon feeds for horses are oats, bar ley, and bran, together with tim othy, prairie, clover, and alfalfa hays. The amount of grain and hay required by the farm work horse depends, among other things, on the kind, regularity, and speed of the work performed. Although the exact amount is variable, a gen eral guide is to allow one and one tenth lbs. of grain to l'i lbs. of hay per 100 lbs. live weight for horses at moderately heavy work; and 14 to one and one-third lbs. of grain, with not to exceed V'a lbs. of hay, at heavy work. The grain part of the ration for horses at work is usually di vided into three eaual feeds. If the horse does not clean tin his grain tin a reasonable length of time. I the quantity should be reduced. About two-thirds of the daily hav I allowance is given at night, with t most of the remaining hay fed in the morning, leaving only a vcrv small allowance for the noon feed. Some hay should be fed before the grain at night, for the appetite of the horse is not appeased by the grain when it is fed first, and he fills up on hay, forcing the grain on through the stomach too quickly, therebv decreasing the quantity assimilated. Overfeeding, rather than under feeding, is the common practice when horses are working irregular ly. It should be remembered that the amount of feed should vary not only between winter and summer, but also from day to day. It is a waste of feed if the amount is not varied with the degree of work. When horses are to be idle on the following day. as on Sunday, it is well to substitute a bran mash for the Saturday night grain feed. and reduce the grain feed for Sun day to approximately half of the normal ration. The consensus of opinion on watering horses indicates that water may be given either before, during, or after meals without in jurious effects. Horses which have been deprived of water for a long period or those which have under gone severe exertion should gen erally be watered before eating. It is dangerous, however, to allow an animal to drink heavily while very warm. If the horse is hot, give a moderate drink at this time, and water more freely after the animal has cooled off. It is not a good practice to water heavily just be fore putting horses to heavy work. January, February.
