Lack of Confidence.


There are many men who do not
have enough confidence in themselves
to mark out and follow a line of work
that differs materially from that Of
their neighbors, says the National
Stockman. 1t is often good business
sense to copy the methods Of success
full men round about to q certain ex-
tent, but 1t is not safe to let other peo-
pie run your business. The man is the
biggest factor in any business farm
ing or anything else. On him depends
most its success or failure. Therefore
he should study himself In relation to
his business, should ponder the prob
lens before him and then plan his
work for himself. 1t may be that he
will find it best to do about what other
good farmers are doing; it may be that
he can go step in advance or that he
can profitably turn aside into new
ways. The thoughtful man can settle
these questions better than anybody
else can settle them for him. Having
determined on some course, he should
enter into his work with confidence
that he will win. Confidence and en-
thusiasm work wonders. The man
who always says or thinks cant do
it, never does much. The men who
succeed go ahead and do things while
the croakers and hangers back doubt
and then wonder. 1t pays to have
faith in your business, and it pays to
have confidence in yourself.

Something About Sheen.

The lamb crop in the west is very
short, while Texas reports about half
as many lambs as last year. This will
make big difference with the mutton
market and will be felt, as all such
shortages are, for several years.
Sheep that have indigestion must
receive speedy help. Give EPSON salts,
adding ginger-ground, of course-to
it. Change the feed and give tonic
for a few days. Gentian and iron,
mixed, are good.
Watch the lambs to see whether they
are at all ticky.. II they are, dip them.
The ticks are quite smart enough to
know that they find a better home on
the lambs than on their sheared
mothers, and they move accordingly. :
! 1t is still early enough to plant some
cowpeas. If you have not tried this
legume, why not plant little patch
yet? The soil need not be the best
on the farm for this experiment by
any means.
The Sheep Breeder recommends put
ting q broad, low box Of Stacked lime
in front of the sailing trough or any
where where the sheep will be COM
PEELED to stand in it from time to time.
1t is claimed that foot disease will be
unknown where this is done.

For the Farmer


The best ration for horse must of
necessity depend upon what the work
OF the horse Is, says A. N. Springer in
Land and Living. If kept for hight
driving the feed will necessarily not
be the same as If for heavy labor The
farmers horse generally is an all
round horse, doing heavy work and
light as the occasion demands. The
ration Of horse should admit Of some
change: should not be corn and hay
every day in the year. During the
summer months work horses should
have the run Of a pasture field at night
and Of days when not at work. Grass,
we know, is the ideal stock food, and
brick stables are uncomfortable places
for horses in warm weather. Working
horses must have corn as well. A
feed Of corn three times day, with
all the good clover hay they can eat
while standing In the stables, coupled
with the grass, will form ration cal
culated to give the horse a satisfying
fill. This may still further be varied
by an additional occasional feed Of
oats. A small handful Of bran sprfn-
kled over the corn when fed is good.
A ration something like this is within
the reach Of all and will greatly con-
duce to better condition Of the horse.
The horse appreciates good fare and
will return the favor In no uncertain
way. To be really and truly humane,
we must do the best that we can with
all animals intrusted to our care.

Keen the End In View.

The breeder of pure bred stock who
loses sight Of the ultimate object of
his stock is on the way to failure, says
The National Stockman. He may, in
breeding for fancy points Of color or
form, in striving to double UP flash
ionable" blood or aiming to produce
show winners, injure his business and
the breed he is trying to improve. The
man who is breeding hogs, for in
stance, should remember that, what
ever his immediate aim may be, the
final purpose Of his stock is to help
somebody make the most pounds of
pork at the least possible cost. No
matter what may be his success in
producing fancy" animals, he should
not forget that the final Judge Of bis
stock is the fellow who is trying to
make money out Of 1t on the farm or
ranch. He who uses improved blood
to make more or cheaper meat wool.
milk or butter is the man in whom the
popularity Of any breed depends. He
is governed by business reasons only;
he can and viii discard anything that
does not bring the answer in dollars
and cents. No breeder can afford to
slight him or his requirements.

TRUTH AND A TRUNK.


Look Out For Baggage II a Woman
Tells You 1t Isn't Heavy.
know a woman who travels around
the country with trunk as big as a
house. Protests Of husband and friends
are OF no avail, and It seems to me the
case is perfectly proper one for the
Anticruelty society. When l mention
ed this to the lady with the trunk. she
said, "But they are only to look after
children and animals"
Perhaps they can twist their con-
stitution to get the baggageman under
the head of animals and prosecute
you.'
She did not appear at all discom-
posed. The last time she went away
groaned for the expressman. The
house was in an awful turmoil, and
the trunk was on the third floor.
tits not very heavy" l heard her
say At the remark the expressman
Immediately called his helper from

MEANS" he said, with knowing nod
to the maid. When he got up stairs,
he could hardly lift one end. Never

light it's dead sure to be heavy. They
don't mean it, but they can't tell the
truth about trunk. I don't know
whether they think we don't know
about weight, or We'll charge them less
If they say it's light, or what, but we
always look out for the trunk that's
called light" Then he and his helper
tugged and pulled and damned holes
in the wall as they went down stairs
