honesty, sobrety and close attention to busi-

jority Of horses are beaten at the post You
will notice many riders come to the post
Jerking and whipping their mounts and when
q false break occurs they let them run n
quarter Of a mile. Now in sprint race
the horse that runs half a mile, made up in
false starts, must possess wonderful staying
qualities to be In at the finish. 1t is good
point to be able to get away in front, but to
do this with a fresh horse under you Is
where the rub comes In Steady your horse
and use the ribbons gently Even II the
animal Is a bit refractory he will soon learn
that you are up there to help him. and will
surprise you by remaining perfectly still.
When the flag falls watch the horse that you
think stands the best chance Of beating you,
and try to keep close up. II your horse Is
slow beginner, don't get excited or dis
couraged. Because you appear out OF 1t at
the half is no sign that you will not be in 1t
at the finish. l have found that some horses
run better from behind. Then, again, have
also noticed that some horses prefer to run
in front, but when challenged grow sulk,.
When mCunted on such a horse, l strive to
keep him out OF reach as long as possible.
The horse, like man, has his humors, whims
and moods, and to properly ferret them out
Is the point aimed at by all the successful

MEN UF THE ROD AND GUN
Fishing Season IN Delayed, but is Ex-
pected to BE Whopper
when IT Starts.

Warm weather Is here, but reports from
all the fishing resorts are OF rather
discouraging nature. The cause of this Is
the unsettled condition of the atmosphere.
The frequent rains of the last week or
ton days have resulted in the riling of
lakes and rivers, and these following up
the river rises, have made both crappie and
bass hard to catch. Quinnebaug and Lang
don, the two big fishing resorts hereabouts,
send out no good news. The water is still
high and muddy. At Langdon, however, 1t
is reported that some coed catches of crap
pie have been made, and in the course of
week or so 1t is said that the fishing at this
place will be better than it has been for a
number OF seasons. The few bass that
have been pulled out so far have been big
boys and game. Blue lake seems TO be
more fortunate than any OF the resorts.
Good messes are being pulled out of its
water. II has been reported that one catch
Of thirty-four bass averaging three pounds
was made during the last week. Gus Ed
holm and DR.. Owens have gone to see just
what truth there is in the report.
''There Is as yet but little fishing on ac-
count OF the high water and the frequent
rains that we have been having, but look
for big season when 1t once gets started"
declares Billy Townsend up to date the
call for fishing tackle has been only mod
crate, but this is caused by the fact that
fishermen are putting off their outings until
they are certain of being able to get mess
as a reward for their trip. What has been
sold has been OF frst-clasS quality how
ever. More tackle Of tip-top quality Is
being sold this spring than for good many
years, which is another proof of the fact that
prosperity is encamped in our midst. But,
as have said, the big majority of people are
putting on their trips until the weather be-
comes more settled. ! know OF a dozen
parties that are postponing their outings
from time to time on account Of the bal
