more than One-half that of $50
pounds There may then be con-
siderable margin for increase of pro-
duct to supply the stimulated de-
mand through the lessened price,
and this increased demand will pro-
portionately add to the value, which
will not then be reduced in full pro-
portion to the increased product.
This same principle applies to all
farm products, and even food is con-
sumed in larger quantities when low
prices prevail. Thus it is easily
seen that an effective remedy for low
prices is to increase the supply, and
thus make more money from the
same area of land, with an equiva-
lent increase of prof.

Over Manuring Grain Crops.

The fact that stable manure con-
tains too much nitrogen and too
little potash and phosphate makes it
unsuitable for manuring the small
grains. To furnish the mineral ele-
ments that grain crops require an
overdose of manure must be given,
and this makes an excessive growth
of straw. If the stable manure is APP
piled to corn and potato crops, the
crops OF oats, barley or wheat grown
the second or third years will need
only mineral elements. This is es-
pecially true of winter wheat II is

must have a good mouth, says an ex-
change. This causes the bit to be
one of the most important parts of
the harness, as it touches the most
sensitive parts of the horse. The bit
used, and the way it is used, causes
the horse to have good or bad
mouth. A horse that cannot bear
much weight on the mouth is called
tender mouthed. Such ones are
often made to have good mouth by
using pleasant bit, and being driven
by a careful, experienced driver,
Some horses are rank pullers, made
so by abuse. but when they have a
kim, experienced driver they soon
have confidence and give it up.
Many high mettled and spirited
horse is often largely restrained by
the reason and voice Of the driver.
which if driven by some would be
called unsafe, and they would be
for certain ones to drive. A

that it will take all the strength of
its driver at first to control. and #
the lines are not drawn up quick
their heels go up and they will go
off on a run. A horse in race will
often give a great burst of speed.
They want then good mouth and a
strong. steady pull to keep them
from breaking. One time when
Ethan Allen was driven on exhibit
tion by Holcomb. he had so much
confidence In Ethan that he seemed
to think he need not pay any atten-
tion to the lines, and let them loose.
He started him at a fifty clip and
Ethan broke, which he would not
have done if there had been few
pounds pulled on the mouth. 1t was
said Ethan never pulled more than
ten pounds on the bit in his race. AS
a general rule common sized joint
bit is the best to drive trOtters with.
A horse in break will catch quicker
with such bit than straight one.
The bit should be made as pleasant
to the horse as can be, and have him
safe. Many race has been lost by
the horse being veXed, irritated and
maddened by an unpleasant bit =

as from inclination and habit Pri-
marily, corn was the food Of the
negro population in the days of s.a-

negro cooks in white families no

Some Of the early kings of Fran,c

there was nc division, but when there
was a separate German nation the
rulers gained many curious titles

The rulers Of the provinces that
now make up Spain had number OF
kings called Great and Catholic.
Then they also had the Monk and
Gouty and included others who were
inhrm-Bad, Noble, Strong, Valiant,
Gracious, Sickly, Impotent, Bene-
flcent, and Ceremonious. Ferdinand
III. of Leon and CASTLE was the
Saint and Holy.
Hungary has her rulers described
as Saint, German, Thunder, Venc-

was probably the only woman who
held a like title. Over Portugal

A Dreadfully Stuck-Up Engine.

Smithville, in the live and liberal
county of Lee, Ca, has brass band of
some years standing. And this is the
story which the village newspaper tells
Of it: "A flagman, almost out of breath,
rushed into the Academy of Music
here the other night while the Smith
vile Brass Band was practicing and
asked to see the leader He said that
when the south-bound passenger train,
which is due here at 7:15 p. m, got
near enough to hear the band the en-
CINE pulling the train suddenly became
unmanageable and stopped dead still,
listened moment, gave short and
unearthly Shrek, reversed itself and
took the back track for Macon in regu-
lar Nancy Hanks style. AS soon as it
got out of hearing Of the band it
stopped, and f1agman was sent ahead
to ask the boys to cease playing until
they could get it through town. Now,
any engine that won't pass through
the city while our brass band is play
ing is freak of the first water and
should be sidetracked and left for the
rust to devour. For sweet, heavenly
music give us brass bands and bull
frogs"
