A Sweet Joke.

An American army officer who was
in Cuba during the Spanish war was
extremely dissatisfied with the cooking.
He insisted that the Cubans put sugar
into everything they cooked. At last
he announced that he would eat moth
ing but boiled eggs. "They can't sugar
them," he declared. So he ordered them
next morning. But before he appeared
at the table another officer had filled
the salt cruet with sugar. When the
"kicker" appeared, his eggs were
brought to him. He opened them with
gloomy complacency and sprinkled
over them plenty of the doctored salt.
At the first mouthful he turned purple.
"Sugared! Sugaredv' he exclaimed and
rushed from the table

Mr.. Arthur Chapman writing from
Durham, Natal, South Africa, says:
"As proof that Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is cure suitable for old and
young, l pen you the following: A

two months old. 1t had very bad
cough and the parents did not know
what to give it. suggested that if
they would get a bottle of Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy and put some
upon the dummy teat the baby was
sucking it would no doubt cure the
child. This they did and brought
about quick relief and cured the
baby" This remedy is for sale by

The guess before election was that
Hamlin township would poll bigger
vote this year than last. A large
number had secured their papers
giving them right to vote and there
were several added to the population
during the year.
Last Friday night as the young
people of Hamp Jones were going
home accompanied by friends from
Audubon their team became frighten-
ed just east of town and broke loose
from the carriage and ran on home
leaving the young people safe in the
buggy behind.
Nothing seems to be stirring this
past week in Hamlin but corn pick

QUALITY IN HORSES.
Combined With Substance, 1t Means
Equine Perfection.

Combined With Substance, 1t Means
Equine Perfection.
There is no subject upon which there
seems to be more diversity of opinion
among horsemen than as to what con-
stitutes equality" in horse, says
correspondent of Breeders Gazette.
1t is a term in very common use, but
if you ask a number of horsemen what
they mean by it you are sure to get a
variety of answers. One will say 1t
means breeding, another conformation,
another finish, another GLASS;" anoth-
er symmetry, individuality or perhaps
a combination of some or all of these
attributes. Some say that quality is
recognizable, but indefnabIe and uD-
explainable.
What you find with regard to quality
in the bones of an individual you find
peryading all the tissues of his organ.
ism You do not find horse with
coarse bone and fine skin or coarse skin
and fine bone. If the bone is fine or
has equality" in an individual the mus
cles, tendons, ligaments, skin, hoofs,
hair and all the other tissues which en-
ter into his composition are equally
fine or are of equal quality" The
equality" of horses bone may be per-
length or other defective form or
faulty relationship of one bone to an
other may make his conformation very
imperfect indeed, so that it is difficult
to understand why some horsemen
think there is any relationship between
quality" and conformation.
A high degree of quality" is apt to
| be associated with defects, or one
might almost state that horse can
have too much quality. Size or, more
| correctly, substance is strength, other
| things being equal A horse with a
high degree of quality may be so lack
| ing in substance as to impair his pow
er for the performance Of work OF Sc
| we're tests of endurance or speed. He
may be so light limbed that he cannot
stand the wear and tear of hard work
| and remain practically sound. We Of
| ten find horses that are Supertine with
disproportionally small feet and every
experienced horseman knows that it is
seldom that such horses can do much
work and remain sound. A horse, how
ever, cannot have too much quality
providing it is combined with sutticien
substance for the purpose for which Ii,
is required. A high degree Of quality
and sufficient substance are most i'm
portant attributes in contributing tt
perfection in horseflesh.

Goats on the Range.

The Angora is an advantage to the
cattle range, said L. w. Witt before
the Texas farmers congress. First,
it destroys all the weeds and the
small brush, affording the grass an op.
portunity to grow l have seen in this
country pastures in wet seasons where
two pastures We're located side by side;
one pasture carried one goat to two
acres, while in the other pasture goats
were not allowed to run. The pasture
that carried the goats had all the
weeds destroyed and had very fine
coat of mesquite grass, while the pas
ture that the goats were kept off OF
was totally choked out by weeds and
other rank growth such as cattle would
not eat. AS brush destroyer the goat
has no equal.
