Any other.
Few men start in the breeding bust
ness as they would start in any other
line Of work. To make a success Of
any line of business It is necessary
that the man know the business thor
oughly, and he can only do that
through a more or less extensive expe-
rience. No man can learn the best
part of what should and must be
known by the successful stockman

breeding. No man can learn to ride a
bicycle, for instance, by seeing others
do it. Nor can he do so by the most
profound process of reasoning and
the most thorough course of reading
and study. He must mount the
machine and learn by actual expe-
rience. So it Is with the stockman, he
must learn to balance himself be-
tween the pitfalls Of extravaganza on
one side and the bou1ders of careless
ness on the other. He must learn by
actual care in feeding not to feed too

from experience gained as it were, by
living in the pens or stables. AS a
writer states it, he must, to be a sue
cessful hog raiser, read hog, talk hog,
eat hog and live with the hog.
While the above is true, that no man
can learn by reading and study alone
what should be known before en-
barking in the stock-raising business,
It is equally true that to obtain the
requisite experience to gain success it
Is not necessary that he purchase a
large herd and through failure pay
dearly for his experience. He should

many a man makes a failure because of
inferior stock that with good stock
would achieve success. Start with
two. three or Ave hrst-class individu-
ais Of the breed selected, and BY close
observation and good care make these
profitable, and our word for it, by the
time these prove themselves profitable
the owner, il he has properly studied
the questions involved in the breeding
business, will be able TO make double
the number pay as we'll or better. Il
there is q business above another
in which experience is the only safe
teacher it is stock raising. Many pay
dear for a small amount of knowledge
while others get much at small ex
pense, but all get it in, the same schoo
and in the same way. To make hast.

ginner in stock raising, for there ii
much more to learn than the averag,

-
Value Of a Fish Dies In Bringing Aboat
intellectual Development.
1t is a homely saying that a fish diet,
on account of the amount of phospho-
rus supposed to be found in fish Is most
desirable for the sustenance and benefit
OF those who use their brains. There
is a general opinion that fish is the food
for men of genius, but though this
claim has repeatedly been disputed, fish
diet continues to find favoramong many
persons. The Saturday Review has re-
Gently taken up q controversy with
some of the British medical journals
on this subject, and in the course of it
declares that "the style and character
of DR.. johnson remained the same
whether he drank lemonade and tea or
port and punch" On champagne and
ortolans, the writer adds, Burns would
have written neither better nor worse
than on collops and toddy.
This controversy has revived some in
curry into the matter of fish as a diet.
apart from the effects produced upon
celebrated individuals. 1t is a fact well
known and not disputed that profess
sional fishermen are not noted for i'm
~tellectual activity. The Cornishmen of
England, the Brittany fishermen of
France, and the Newfoundland fisher
men of North America, to say nothing
of the fishermen of the Jersey coast,
the Long Island coast or of Massachu-
sets, do not rival the graduates of es-
tablished universities in forensic de-
bates or Pathological controversies. In
Germany, for instance, the consumption
Of fish to the ~inhabitant averages eight
pounds a year. In Portugal the average
is 12 pounds, and it will not be contend
ed that the Portuguese are, generally
speaking, more intellectual than the peo-
pie Of Germany. The consumption Of
fish in Norway is far in excess of what
it is in Italy. The average consump-
ton of fish in the city of Paris is 80
pounds to the inhabitant q year; in
the large cities Of Russia Of which rec.
ords are preserved the average is so
pounds, and it is not easy to establish
from these figures any equation which
would show that the consumption OF
fish is favorable to the mental develop
ment of the inhabitants.
There is one benefit which fish pos
sesses over other elements of diet; il
retains more of its substance in boil
ing. One hundred pounds of beef boiled
shrinks to 81; 100 pounds of mutton
boiled to rs; 100 pounds of fish boiled
to "a. On the basis of nutritiye value

as desirable a food Us any, but an ex
elusive fish diet is not particularly

at hand to show, to the development o.

II on every farm more attention is
paid to the home dairy. a better prod
uct Of butter will be turned out, and a
greater yield per COW viii be realized.
The better the article the more sure
the sale. and the larger the yield per
COW the greater the net profits.
Never try to do dairy work with beef

lure to supply the food. Be sure to
have necessary conveuiences of the
best kind for securing the full guam

Every home dairy should raise ito
choicest heifer calves, in order that
the supply Of good dairy COWS may be
kept'up.
1t will pay for the trouble and ex-
