a frieni from whom l was buylne
some two-year-old mules, was onered
SCI for some yearlings. Now this was
no fancy figure by any means, nor
were they more than ordinary mules,
but the beauty about it was that they
cost less than half that about ten
months before. We don't often buy
stock on which we can double our
money every IL months; especially
when at so little outlay for feed, yet
many are the cases where such has
been done with young mules. You
say. there is feed bill to be consid-
cred. So there is, but you will be sur
prised when you learn how small that
feed bill was. No high-priced concen-
trates to be counted-grass in summer
and corn-fodder in winter was the prin-
cipal feeds, with little sheaf oats OF
clover hay. This man fed no 6O-cent
corn, and his fodder was stored In the
barn in the fall when it was bright and
sweet In this community such feed
can be had for the cutting, something
like seven cents per 16x16 hill shocks;
very cheap and desirable feed when
properly cured. The secret Of this
mans success was that he exercised
good Judgment in selecting his colts

The cow which is famous milker

If all the blowing is done on level,

BULLET-pRooF CLOTH.
Material Adopted by the Italian Army
Il Possessed of Wonderful
Properties.

The world is at present intensely in
terested in this Italian invention, and
since the Italian government is negoti-
ating for its use it is of importance that
we see just what the results are, al
though 1t is necessary to state that the
invention remains secret, and TINS
notwithstanding attempts to discover
it's details. Thus, says Cosmos. we shall
have to deal with general description
and with the results of experiments.
The armor is sort of felt, the stun
being capable of adaptation to any form
whatever; for example, a breast plate
with a collar o. sort of coat which
completely envelopes the wearer and
absolutely guarantees him from gunshot
wounds. The thickness of the protector
varies from one-sixteenth to seven-six-
teenths of an inch, according to the arm
the effects of which it is designed to
destroy Against the armor of seven
sixteenths of an inch the regular ord
nance revolver with steel-covered ball
is powerless, and also the gun OF the
1891 model charged with smokeless
powder. In the numerous experiments
which have been made-in firing at q
distance of several yards-the ball,
whether it be of lead or steel. when it
strikes the protector is arrested and
deformed, in some cases rebounding
and in others being almost reduced to
pulp. Thus there is not only an arrest
Of the ball, but reformation as well, and
in this reformation the force of the ball
is converted. While there should be a
high degree of temperature at the point
touched by the ball, it seems that the
| ball alone feels the effects, for the pro-
tector does not seem to be burnt in the
slightest.
These results are not limited to bal
listic effects. for in the recent expert
ments 1t was sought to pierce the ar
NOR with a dagger driven with all pos
sible force The point of the arm, how
ever, could not penetrate the felt and
was bent into a shapeless mass.
1t is natural to suppose that the force
of the ball would be communicated Il

SUCCESS ON THF FARM.
A Number of Suggestions Which
III Needed Would Tend to the
General Success.

Success is what every farmer wants,
and the following rules will contribute
UNNECESSARILY towards bringing it.
Have a place for everything and keep
everything in its place. When done
using any tool or implement deposit 1t
promptly in the place where it be-
longs Study and plan to have as many
convenieuces around as possible. Ex-
ercise sociability and that with the
neighbors, so that when help is need
ed it will Re cheerfully rendered. Re-
member when anything needs fixing
it should be attended to promptly. For
instance, when the carriage wheels
need packing, pack them at once. Pack
ing is cheaper than boxing on axles.
Repair promptly all broken harness,
straps, snaps, cockeyes, buckles and es-
pecially the long lines OF double teams
when weak and likely to be torn apart
when least expected. Never run any
kind of machine a moment unless all
bohs and bolt heads are in proper
place. Keep all axles ard other parts
needing oiling well oiled on time. Take
I'D every broken plank in the barn
floor and every one that is weak and
likely to break and replace it with
sound. one. Contract no debts OF any
size unless you know beforehand
where the money is to he secured to
nav it when due Even then 1T would
be best, as a rule, not to make the debt.
Be scrupulously prompt in everything
Never postpone anything until to-
morrow that should be attended to to-
day. Finally, keep in MIND the IDEAS
and act upon them, that to get along
we'll. to carve out success, to get the
most out Of life. good understanding
of the sound theories and practices I'M
DERIVING a business, trade. calling or
profession are essential, if the greatest
measure of success is to be hoped for.
