Moore was probably the smooth.
est articles in the line of promoter
that ever hit this north country.
He was one of the kind who sell the
ocean, and realizes handsomely on
the transaction, as number of local
capitalists can testify.
It is said that when Moore left
the court room in this city after
pleading guilty, he was provided
with disguise that so effectually
cancelled his identity that his own
mother would not have recognized
him.
1t is the general opinion that
Moore should have been given a
much more severe sentence than was
meeted out to him here. The fact
that he finally plead guilty to one or
two minor swindling operations un-
doubtedly had much to do with the
tempering of his sentence. AS
Moore's wife furnished the money
with which to pay his fine, the un-
grateful manner in which he treated
his better half" is all the more cur
like.

Birtwick Balls on the Farm.

Ruskin in his Sesame and Lilies"
SAYS: "And sure good consists in
feeding people then in dressing peo-
pie, then in lodging people, and lastly
in rightly pleasing people with arts
or sciences or any other subject OF
that. No study so well aids in the
performance of all these duties as
does the study of plant and animal
life as it exists around the home OF
the farmer. The intelligent study OF
farm products adds dignity and Gull
ture to farm labor. The Intelligent
s.Man With the Hoe need not be
brother to the OK. He possesses a
living heart an appreciative eye, his
environment teaches him to rever-
ence the things of earth. 10 the
heartless and untutored farm work is
lrudgery but the intelligent farmer
has learned from our sages and knows
that Sweet are the uses of adver-
sity'' and that life exempt from pub
lie haunt may find good in everything.
Kindness to farm animals is one
OF the first steps toward making
stock raising profitable. The horse is
probably the most used and the most
abused farm animal. No animal has
exerted a more powerful influence in
human progress still his history is
not generally known and methods for
his proper care and feeding are but
little practiced. The horse was the
second animal domesticated and he
was first trained in the North of Asia
probably by a branch of the Aryan
race. The training of so powerful
an animal should be brought
about only by intelligent humane
methods. There is difference be-
TWEEN training and breaking. Kindness
here is an important factor. BY
training the horse is tanned and
taught to be of service to mankind
still noble animal BY breaking the
horse is brot into subsection but is
left poor spiritless creature.
Care consists in properly housing,
feeding, blanketing, driving and
working Speed should not be
sought too much on the farm with
the work horses horse that is al
lowed to take a moderate gait when
on the road will not need as much
grain and will be of service long after
the horse that is urged to it's greatest
speed when on the road, has passed
his period Of usefulness. Many a
good horse is spoiled by lack OF
skill in handling him right. The
story of the training of Bucephalus
by Alexander of Thessaly illustrates
what wonders can be wrought by the
application Of Birtwick Balls. These
balls should be used freely wherever
, stock are kept. They are easily com
pounded, consisting of an ounce each
of kindness, soft words and pettine
mixed well with a pint of common
sense and given to the animals on the
farm three times day and whenever
deemed necessary. Farmers may d.
we'll to remember that by being kind
and generally decent to their animals
they are not only increasing thei1
bank account but they are laying up g
pile Of fine sunny tomorrows for them
selves.
