Sec Need of Horse llri'i'dlng The efort of the State College of Argiculture to stimulate hor.se breed ing has received praise from several sections of tho state. One farmer visiting the College recently said he urn not believe there were more thrtn a dozen geldings in his county. . .. ..: It was his opinion that farmers will have to buy horses at high prices in order to meet their own needs, unless I breeding is stimulated. A year or 'two ago the opinion prevailed in some sections that the time was ap proaching when horses would no long er be needed. Now many believe that the horse will always remain the primary motive power on the farm. Last fall horses were selling at rather low prices. Before spring work opened, however, the demand was strong and the price hod mater ially advanced. It now looks like horses would continue to commano a price out of proportion to other farm products. For Sale Some good cottonwood lumber, also a quantity of stove wood. Don Forbes, mile north of Dakota City. State Sends Eggs to Europe The State College of Agriculture recently made a shipment of eggs to Czecho Slovakia. The eggs were White Plymouth Rocks and Rhode Island Reds nnd were fresh from high laying ancestry. This new European government is enueavoring to lm prove Its agriculture and desires to induce its people to adopt some good American breeds of poultry. The suc cess of the Nebraska Colleire of Air riculture in develonintr hitrh lavini? strains of poultry has attracted at tention in many states and in sever al foreign countries. The College is going on the theory that noultrv should be bred for egg production nnd not for fine feathers, as was once the ideal of breeders. It has devel oped a number of hens which have records of 200 or more eggs in a year. SAFETY- FIRST Lies slumbering here One William Lake; He heard 'the bell, But had no brake. Detroit News.
