A common error made by some of
our best citizens is to attach very little
Importance to precinct primary cleo
tons. This is not as it should be.
The primaries are of the utmost inn
portance. If you wish to have voice
in the deliberations of the convention
to be held at Forsyth, October 3. you
should attend the primaries and insist
on sending representative men, whose
ability you have confidence in, to the
convention from your precinct. If you
remain at home and the movements of
the convention are not to your liking
you have no one to blame but yourself.
The primary elections for democratic
electors for the various precincts of the
county are set for Friday, September
80 If you believe in the principles of
democracy as set forth in the national
and state platforms of that body polite
it is your duty as a good citizen to at
tend the primary elections and see that
good, clean men are sent to the county
convention where they will be a factor
in placing before the people of this
AL 80, -.

People think it is easy to "run" a
newspaper. One weeks experience
would change the opinion of most peo-
pie on this subject. Did you ever count
the words in a column of ordinary
newspaper print? Well, there is about
a thousand words in a column. Sup
pose you sit down and write thousand
words upon some subject, and then an
other thousand and another until YOU
have written eight or ten thousand.
Try it, and see if it is right easy.
Keep that gait up for month, a year,
and see if it is easy. Then chase a
single local item all over town, and
after you have gotten the facts all
right, condense them into a few lines
an hours work that can be read in a
few seconds. Do this for a dozen
items that seem insignificant after
they are printed, but which you know
are important; then have the items
criticised and inaccuracies pointed out
to you when it is too late to correct
them. Oh, yes, it is easy to ''run''
newspaper. Dillon Examiner.

CHEERFUL FALLIBILITY.
We Are Safest, Happiest and Most
Useful When We Balance with
Our Friends.


To be too perfect is to excite not so
much the envy as the derision of an
imperfect world, says Harper's Bazaar
When we trip--not too wofully-our
dearest friends smile as they help US
10 our feet. In the midst Of our cha
grin we dimly perceive that back Of
the smile that hurts our pride is a new
friendliness. which has its root in a
sense OF kinship. These who help US
have themselves stumbled. and may at
any moment stumble again; they well
come us with shamefaced rejoicings
into the company of those whom EN-
erson called Gods cheerful, fallible
men and women.
Shall we make our election sure by
coRfessing ourselves as normally liable
to err, or deny it by affirming our de-
sire to rise superior to mortal fraili-
ties2 In the latter case the world is
sure to turn upon us, and the eager
ness with which il lies in wait for the
Inevitable collapse increases our dan
gers and difficulties. 1t fairly hurries
US into the commission of that which
we most wish to avoid. We wish to
be dignifed; we become absurd. Our
very speech proves traitor to our ton
que, and instead of obeying us, de-
lights the ears of those who listen hos
tilely.
We discover that, after all, the ped
estal we have periIously essayed to
aeorn is not so delightful an elevation
as it looks. The foot-trodden ground
is broader and less wobbly The swift
step down is not pleasant-who does
not know the pang of nausea that it
brings? Some one has raised us to
that high place. decked us with all the
Jewels Of virtue and consistency,
taken Joy In worshipping at our shrine.
II is hard. in the very midst Of our
prinking and pranking. to be jolted
face downward fnto triumphant com
monplaee. Yet, since the basis of
charity is the perception that in our
selves turks the potentiality of all we
most object to in our neighbors. it may
not be altogether improbable occa-
slonally to put this perception to the
test.
This is not saying anything against
that plain, unassuming. everyday con-
scientiousness which has its undenia-
Bile place in the moral order; but it is
a rebellion against that snIffy con-
seientiousness which proves such a ty-
rant to many good women. II makes
simple right-dolng almost impossible,
and lures some OF it's victims to the
uuagmire Of nervous despair and 9TH
ers to the barren heights of priggish-
ness. BY all means let US think deep

can, love better Whea the blessed pow
er is granted US. do better when we
should; but in any case, in the name
Of all moral sanity. let us promptly
forget it. We need to give our undi-
vided attention to what we have to do

proach as for self-admiration We are

We balance on light. responsive feet,

CLEVER HENS OF OREGON.
Their Owner Says They Can Tell
Drones from Working Bees and
Never Make a Mistake.

worth their weight in coined sill
YER" is the value attached to his flock
of hens and chickens by w. H. Pen
ming. the most extensive producer of
honey in the alfalfa region about On
tario. Ore. This high price for poul-
try is not on account Of the beauty or
size or pedigree of his flock, but on ac-
count of their having developed a fac
uIty of intelligence which enables
them to distinguish between work
ing bee and drone, which enables
him tc secure a much larger yield of
honey from his 500 hives, as his hens
keep the number Of lazy, idle drones,
who are not armed with stings, but
who have good appetites, reduced to q
minimum, and more cells are filled and
sealed daily by the busy workers.
Mr.. Penning told the Portland Ore
CONAN the story of the wonderful de-
velopment of his hens, which are all
lowed to run at large among his bee
hives, and who, like many other
"birds." have a fondness for bees,
bugs. grasshoppers and other insects.
but which, generally speaking, have
learned to leave bees entirely alone,
having in their early attempts at
swallowing them found that pain and
danger lurked in the stings with which
most of them are armed. Within the
past year or two he has noticed his
hens peeking into the entrances OF
hives and occasionally Selling a bee,
which, after placing on the ground
and examining critically, they would
sometimes swallow and sometimes al
low to fly away.
This resulted in careful investiga-
ton by him of the strange action OF
the hens, and he soon found that the
fowls had learned to distinguish the
stingless and useless drones from the
armed working bees, and that in con-
seuence the number of eaters, but
nou-producers of honey, was being
kept within reasonable limits. He has
also discovered that this season the
old hens have taught their chickens
how tc distinguish between the two
classes of bees. He believes that no
other fowls have ever acquired this
valuable knowledge, and has not
found anyone who has ever heard OF
such knowledge being displayed ov
any fowl or bird. He is greatly de-
lighted at his discovery, for it means
many dollars in his pocket, and his
discovery is now published for the in
formation of all apiarists, students OF
entomology and the public in general.

WORK FOR YOUNG HORSES
MANY Mistakes Are Made in This Di-
rection by Farmers Who Ought
to Know Better.

1t may be considered that horse is
fairly termed young until it is eight
years old, and after that it ought to
be expected to accomplish any reason
able amount of work asked Of it with
out injury. I often think we are in
clined to ask too much of your young
horses; we work them too hard with the
same effect that working children too
hard has: it stunts their growth and
prevents them from accomplishing what
they should when they reach maturity
Feeding young horses is one of the Sc
rious problems of farm work and one
which each horse owner must, largely,
work out for himself.
We have found it not only economical
but good policy to fed the young horse
a moderate quantity of corn, about one
fifth of the ration but we always feed
cracked corn and thus avoid any serious
bowel troubles. However, we learned
after some years of experimenting that
to get the best results from feeding a
ration in which cracked corn was used
we must feed more or less succulent
food. For this purpose we have used
root crops, a moderate amount of silage
or Stoned clover hay, and had the best
results from the root crops. During the
summer we always permit the young
horses to get enough grass to supply the
green food needed to keep them in good
condition.-American Tribune.

Horses Thrive Best on Oats.

That oats make better feed for the
horse than corn, especially in spring
Is generally conceded. The corn has
an overbalance of heat forming mate
rial, which gives him great surplus OF
fuel to be changed into energy. But
there must be muscle on which to ex-
ercise the energy or it cannot be used
Corn produces too little muscle. With
oats the balance is more nearly equal
and the energy and the muscle on
which to exercise the energy are in
about the proper proportions. For this
reason the farmer Is able to get more
work out of ten pounds of oats than
out of ten pounds It corn.-Farmers

Scrubs Eat Their Heads Off.

That scrub animals will waste large
amounts of feedstuffs, was shown in
a feeding test conducted at the Ten
nessee station. A bunch of animals of
good breed and antecedents were fed
for beef and gained two and half
pounds per day, while so-called
scrubs" under the same conditions
gained only one and half poundss a
difference of one pound per day. The
effect of breeding, blood and conforma-
ton is instanced in another feeding test
where certain beef steers gained only
As pounds in 60 days, while others un-
der similar conditions gained 125
pounds in the same period. This goes
to show that it does not pay to feed a
poor animal. Weed out the scrubs -
