Tho Known Stallion.

A prepotent stallion of merit Is OF
great value to a neighborhood. Often
however, the stations real work is
not realized till he has died or been
sold. A record Of the performances OF
stations if kept and studied would
prove Of great value. The man that
has a stallion that is unable to pro-
duce many and good colts generally
likes to keep that fact to himself IL
he finds it out, and the farmers in the
vicinity take no trouble to prevent him
keeping the matter secret. Thus q
poor stallion frequently proves to be a
successful competitor With a much
more valuable stallion. Old stations
are sometimes among the most useful
and they have the advantage In that
their progeny can be known. We have
heard of stations being repeatedly
sold and sent from place to place, do
ing good work In each locality, but
the farmers not finding it out till the
stallion had been disposed of and
removed beyond their reach. Too lit
tie importance Is put on the prepo-
tency of the stallion and too little eff
fort is made to find out what each
stallion Is worth as breeder.

Lima and Downs in Prices.

In farm stock as in all other things
that are not governed by trusts and
combines there are ups and downs In
prices. Just now certain kinds Of
farm stock are down a little, includ-
ing sheep and pedigreed cattle. The
time for the farmer to buy foundation
stock is when it is low and there Is
little interest in the breed. Every
one wants to buy whom things ard
booming, and that is just the time
when buying is least profitable. The
most successful farmer IL tho one
that can figure out the course Of prices
a long way in advance and take adj
vantage Of the depressiona A bic
eastern fnancier was once asked how
he got rich. He replied, by fishing
against the stream" He meant that
he bought when other people were
discouraged and selling and sold when
things I'm one particular line were
booming. The low prices are particu
larly advantageous to the men with
small capital.

Didn't Fear Sharks.

DR.. Dave Hcrnen, owner of the
well-known racing sloop Flosshilde,
SAYS that one afternoon, while lying
about tbree-quarters of a mile Gil
New Rochelle harbor, near the Re-
liance's old mooring place, he Noticed
several good-sized sharks swimming
laZily about the boat.
Half an hour afterward three
hrawny fellows, tanned by the sun
until they had the appearance or
Africans, swan out toward the sloop.
When they got within hearing dis
lance the doctor shouted to them to
look OFT for the sharks that had been
around there just a short time before.
This warning didn't seem - disturb
the swimmers in the least, for one Of
them half raised himself out of the
water, and in the most impudent wa!
said:

Government Supervision Of Horse
Breeding.

Attempts have been made from time
10 time to secure some kind OF ma
,ional legislation that would put pre-
mium on good, sound stations OF the
llfrerent breeds and by inference ut
least act against the poor scrubs that
ire used because they are cheap and
or no other purpose. This has not as
yet resulted in any law relating to the
service of stations. The bills that
aaye been introduced from time to
limo provided for the examination OF
;tallions as to soundness and to some
extent as to conformation. Just what
he government can do In the matter
{ is difficult to say. We know what
)ther governments have done and
What they are doing, especially the
,overnm ,nt of France, where public
studs are in common use. All Ameri-
ANS doubtless believe that 1t would be
good thing to prevent the use OF
Door stations, but the way to do this
is not plain. The radical bills fall
because they are radical, and the con-
sentative bills fail because they do
not promise to accomplish much and
hence do not get the support OF the
breeders.

SALT FOR NEWBORN BABES.
Many Mothers Believe It Well to
Sprinkle the Infants

The remarkable custom Of sailing
newborn babies is still practiced in
certain parts of Europe and Asia.
The method varies with the differing
nationalities of the people using it.,
The Armenlans of Russia cover the
entire skin of the infant with a very
fine salt. This is left on the baby for
three hours or more, and then washed
off with warm water. A mountain
tribe In Asia Minor is even more
merciless than the Armenians. They
keep their newborn babies covered
with salt for twenty-four hours TIE
modern Greeks sprinkle their babies
with salt; and even in some parts of
Germany salt is still used on child
at birth. The mothers imagine that
this will give children health and
strength and keep evil spirits away
from them.

Roots and sheep.

Some OF our stOekmen want to know
Why more turnips and other roots are
not grown In this eOuntTy for the use
Of sheep. One man asserts that We do
not grow more roots now than We die
forty years ago, The inyaFiable reply
that has TO be made To this is that
the corn plant takes the place Of the
root very largely In American agrieuf
ture. whether Il should do so or not
Another man declares that the pres
ence NJ the silo in America has
been the reason why men did
not grow more roots for sheep,
We cannot believe that this Is
the case. for the reason that silase
has never been extensively used In
sheep feeding. The American farmer
10 rather inclined 10 favor the con
centrated ration aud he speaks OF tur'
nips and other roots as being mostly
water." He reads the books that give
the analyses OF roots and grams and
falls TO fgure out very large nutrient
ration for the turnip. He has never
put CROUCH weight on the suceulence
of the root and its aid 10 digestion.
There Is no question that roots are
highly rellshed by sheep and that they
are a great aid 20 digestion. But the
farmer is welded TO corn. which can
DO cultivated more easily than turnips
and will survive even II the weeds do
make good growth between the
rows. There Is no doubt that even II
man has all other kinds OF food o
good acreage OF roots for his stock
will pay him well,
