There are fashions In everything nova.
days. The latest is in handwriting. AT
least, I see that an Instructor In that art
advertises at O stylish stationer's that he
viii impart to our aristocracy, and ] pre-.
sumo any one else who can pay for In
struction, the latest styles Of fashionable
caligraphy. It used to be charged against
the old fashioned writing master that his
method of instruction deprived the pupil
Of all Individuality in the use Of the pen.
The writing master taught writing after
the fashion OF copperplate. The newer
individuality without the compensation
Of elegance. The thing in handwriting
now Is apparently to make It as illegible
as possible. The extent to which the
people succeed Is certainly credit to the
master.-John Preston Beecher in New

1t Pays to Raise Good Cattle
and Horses.

1t Pays to Raise Good Cattle
and Horses.
We presume it will be no news to
our Stevens County farmers when we
tell them that it pays to raise good
cattle and horses. They all know
this to be true, yet many of them dc
not act on that principle. They still
continue to raise scrub cattle and
scrub horses, when there Ia not one OF
them but must acknowledge that II
pays far better to raise good stock,
notwithstanding that the expense il
more to get started in the direction OF
breeding blooded cattle and horses.
IF there is any farmer or stock raiser
who doubts this, let him watch the
market reports every week, and he
will see that all through the entire
year the best prices are net obtained
for poor breeds, but for the best, and
the cost of making the beef is not any
more. There is probably two cents a
pound difference in the price between
scrub beef cattle and well bred cattle.
So that any one can see that 1t does
not pay to raise inferior breeds OF
cattle.
And what is true as regards cattle,
is more strikingly true in relation to
horses. Itstrikes us that the farmer
who will raise scrub horse at this
age of the world Ia TO say The least,
very foolish. The price of horses
could be advanced on an average of
$50 per head. by stopping the breeding
ofscrubs and raise none but blooded
horses. And then besides there Is a
great deal more satisfaction IN driv-
ing we'll bred horse than there il
riding behind a scrub. The farmer
who has his farm stocked with the
biggest steers, the finest horses. sheep
and swine, certainly enjoys himself
better than the farmer who raises
scrubs and inferior breeds.

When suns.roks L. Prevalent.

We generally find that when sunstroke
is prevalent the atmospheric conditions
are Of certain and definite character.
These are found not only in an elevated
temperature, but great degree Of hu-
mildly or moisture Of the air. As long as
we have dry air the degree. Of heat that
we can endure without much discomfort
is very considerable compared to that
when the air Is full of moisture. The ex-
PLANTATION of this Is simply due to the fact
that evaporation and loss Of heat from
the skin and lungs is markedly interfered
with, the already moist air being unable
to take up and relieve US Of the usual
amount Of moisture. This, coupled with
the increased heat, is placing us in po-
sition where our internal production is
very apt to be decidedly increased. The
only way we have Of compensating under
these conditions is by lessening exertion,
light or modified diet and light clothing.
These, coupled with the ever present III
fuence from the heat center, under nor.
NAL conditions, viii usually project u.s.
