again Manager Collins said:
with strong teams such as are IN the

any man to say that this or that club
has q cinch about gathering in the
fight to Fl finish. I think | am justified IN
saying that we ought to finish on top

chance to win the post-season series.
our men are in good condition, are en-
thusiastic, are willing TO work hard and
will begin the long race with the conf
dence which comes from past success.
Our pitching staff is IN exceiienJ
shape, we are strong in the In and OUT
fields, Our catchers are up to the marx,
and what else could we ask? A game at
the beginning counts as much as at the

extended to Jake Stahi, IN his new job

o r NOTES.
(By S~hepherd.)

Aid the teams by Keeping the
wagon well oiled.
a stupid horse will never like
ly be well trained.
A knowing horse is easilv
trained and is therefore the most
valuable animal.
The best time to clean the
mud off the horses legs Is before
it gets dry.
Put the colt you are breaking
by the side of a fast. walking
horse. 1t will give it a good
start towards becoming a fast
walker.
If starting for a ride or drive
on the road, if the horse is pretty
full in his stomach, commence
at a moderate gait.
Kind treatment of the horses
develops their best traits and
makes them more companionable
as we'll as more useful.
a handful of linseed meal fed
to horses two or three times a
week will aid to regulate the
system and promote health.
One advantage with the draft
horse ls that a slight blemish or
a bit of undesirable color does
not SO seriously injure him in
market.
Don't imagine that horse that
has a good pedigree Is a good
horse to use. Insist on having
a good individual first, and a good
pedigree afterward.
The stallion used for breeding
should be free from vices of tenn.
per and disposition, as he will
surely transmit these traits to
his offspring,
A good depth in the girth is a
good thing, but if a horse is wide
in the chest, he is generally not
so deep in his girth as he would
be if he we're narrower.
1t ls is better for a horse TO
turn both toes out than to turn
one toe out, while on the other
hand, it ls worse for a horse to
turn both toes in than to turn
one toe in.
If a horse of a distinct breed
is put to a mare of the same
breed, there is a reasonable de-
gree of certainty that the pro-
duce will be of the anne sort and
resemble it's parents.
The growing colt will not thrive
unless 1T is given a liberal supply
of food containing the animal
matter so necessary to it's rapid
development which cannot be
produced from grain alone.
Do not be in too much of a
hurry to have the young horses
shod. A foot that has never
been shod will stand a great deal
more of wear and tear, especially
if the horse is used mainly in the
fields.
Young horses should not be al
lowed to remain in the pastures
30 late as to be injured by cold
weather. If exposed to cold
storms or left out frosty nights,
they may suffer serious damage,
and certainly will lose flesh, and
thus begin the winter at a disad-
vantage.-Live Stock Journal.
