endar on which there is quotation
from Max O'Rell.
BY re-reading while riding up and
down | gradually memorized the verse
but it came to me like this:
1st time. Luck means rising at six
o'clock.
I'd time. Luck means rising at six
o'clock in the morning
Sd time. Luck means rising at six
o'clock in the morning, living on a
dollar day
4th time. Luck means rising at six
o'clock in the morning living on a
dollar day if you earn two
And thus time by time l absorbed
the words until l got the verse in my
head. ..
Then to be sure about it | rode up
and down in the car till I wrote it all
out and here it is:
Luck means rising at six o'clock in
the morning, living on a dollar a day
if you earn two, minding your own
business and not meddling with other
peoples. Luck means appointments
you have never failed to keep, the
trains you have never failed to catch.
Luck means trusting in God and your
own resources.

Food and Size of Cows.

Good and persistent milking pro-
duces mixers and the development
of milking qualities, whereas on the
contrary if irregularity and neglect is
practiced the talents which would de-
velop with use will naturally disap-
pear, even what there is. 1t is
great mistake to suppose that dairy
cows all belong to one breed, says
Robt. Pethbridge. They vary from the
Small Kerry of Ireland, the fine Jer-
sey and Guernsey of the Channel Is
lands, the hardy Ayrshire of Scotland,
the dual-purpose Shorthorn and De-
Won of the west of England, to the
Red Polled Norfolk of the east Of
England and others, all of which with
selection and development produce
magnificent dairy cows. 1t Is the
character of the food more than any,
thing else that determines the size.
AS we know, in those districts which
do not produce rich and abundant
grasses you will not find large cows,
and in those districts which do pro-
duce the necessary constituents for
growth and milk producing, in few
years a small bred animal will be-
come the parent of large type, and
with continuous milking will furnish
many good mixers. Select and test
your COWS and use bull from fam
fly which has a milk record, and re-
member that your bull is half your
herd.

You must respect the dogs of some

There are people who would have
admired the impression of dogs foot

The workmen thought that they pro-

Soft Corn as Feed.

The soft corn problem Is serious
one. In many sections of our state
during the past two years there were
large areas on which the corn was
worthless from market standpoint.
1t must either be fed to live stock or
allowed to rot in the field. To the
man who had plenty of stock the
commercial value Of this product was
not a serious question. He could
solve the same by feeding 1t to his
animals. We have large number
OF farmers, however, who belong to
the class called grain growers. Thus,
they had to either sell this soft corn
for feeding purposes, or else allow 1t
Ito rot in the fields. To them the
commercial value Of this product was
an important question. 1t was also
an important question to the cattle
feeders who bad to purchase soft
corn for feeding purposes. We re-
ceiyed a great many requests from
parties belonging to both classes ask
ing for information concerning the
feeding value of this soft corn.
We therefore conducted some ex-
periments with the hope of giving
them some aid. 1t is very likely that
in the future, we will conduct some
further experiments with the hope Of
finding some feed stuffs which per-
haps can be fed to advantage with
soft corn for fattening cattle. Many
attributed the large losses which re-
suited In many sections of the country
last year from the cattle feeding bust
ness to the fact that the corn was
of poor quality. Perhaps some Of
these losses might be attributed to
this cause. In the majority of cases,
however, l think the trouble was due
to the fact that feeding cattle in the
fall of 1902 were unusually high in
price, and the finished cattle in the
spring of 1903 were rather low in
price. In too many instances cattle
which were bought for five cents per
pound as feeders had to be sold for
less when sent to the market as fin
ished animals.

Being Just to Yourself.

While talking to man who was
waiting for the right time to arrive
for him to begin his work he told me
that he had undertaken too much
work for his own good.
If that is so, he has undertaken too
much for the good of others if he is
running a risk of breaking down. But
who is able to tell how much is too
much.
Many people have done their best
work, increased their confidence and
improved their health while thinking
they were doing too much. Others
have broken down while not thinking
about what they were doing.
Those who think may be in the
least danger If it makes them more
cautious and accurate. but If think
ing makes them worry they are in
most danger.
Worry is the antithesis of wisdom
and is worse on the blood than sui
phur is on silver.
Aggressive goodness is the enemy
of worry--be too busy being useful to
worry. Go and saw wood for some
one who needs 1t done and cannot do
it-hunt for heaven and you will
find 1t.

Profit In Younu Animals.

The profit in beef and mutton pro.
duction lies in the young animals.
There was time, but that was many
years ago, when the big boned steer
that weighed 1900 to 1000 pounds
was looked for by the buyers of
beeves, but now the animal that Is
sought by the butchers Is one that
weirhs from 1900 to 1900 pounds.
We have long since found out that
the cheapest meat is made on young
animals, and the money thus invested
is soonest ready to be turned over.
Not only is the money tied up long
est in old animals but the cost OF
producing meat on them is so greaI
that our best beef feeders are no
longer attempting to do that. The
method advocated now is to keep the
animals growing right along from
birth to the period when they weigh
what the market demands. Steers
are now ready for the market at two
years old or under. II all the animals
shipped to the stockyards were Of
this kind there would not be much
complaint about poor returns in stock
breeding and beef making. A good
many farmers are still trying to make
profitable beef on old steers. But
the young steer is the only animal
that gives US any promise of
profit.

eoraoio Acid in Butter.

6oractc Acid IN Butter.
The Australians never seem to get
done considering milk and butter pre-
servatives in some form or other. On
account Of having to send some Of
heir products thousands OF miles to
market, they are perhaps more preju-
aiced in favor of preservatives than
are the people in this country where
the markets are nearer the places Of
production. At Sydney parliament.
airy committee has been investigating
the use OF boracic acid in butter, and,
IN report expresses the belief that
20 grains of boracic acid per pound OF
butter will do no harm. 1t is to be
inferred that above the 25 grains
harm will result. Whether this be a
point OF danger or not we do not
know, but the principal thing is that
there is a danger point. The man
that buys butter doctored with boracic
acid has no means Of telling whether
there be rs or more grains of the pre-.
sentative in it. There is likely to be
more rather than less, as there is al
ways tendency to overdo a matter
OF that kind. 1t must be remembered
that scientists are not the ones that
add the personalities, but usually ig-
norant people that know very little
about such matters. What makes the
matter worse is that the men that use
preservatives are generally of the
opinion that they are harmless and
are hence ready to use all they can
afford to.

To pound out plan of thought for

know what others have pounded out
for themselves. What have you done

self do what you plan to do? What

Good Feed for Dairy Cows.

Sooner or later we are going to
have trouble in some Of our western
states on account of fermented foods
fed dairy cows and the unsophisticat-
ed state Of some of the men engaged
in enforcing dairy inspection laws. We
heard recently Of the attempt by an
assistant dairy and food commissioner
to stop the feeding of waste from the
distilleries. Now, distillery waste,
brewers grains and silage are all
more or less fermented when they
come to the COW, but they are good
feeds for all that. Sauerkraut is
partly fermented food, but it is served
on all our tables, and no one finds
fault with it because of its partial fer.
