AN ILLUSTRATION OF FORM.
syracuse HeraId.)

James Ter Eyck, great oarsman and
great coach, is teaching the sons of E.
H. Hartman TO row. He hopes that
they will do in rowing what Jay Gold
has done in court tennis.
Mr.. Ten Eyck, discussing rowing one
day in Syracuse, said success depended
on form. He explained what he meant
by form. Then, by way of illustration,
he added:
Everything, everything, goes by
form. Thus, out west in the old days,
it was the essence of form to be in
formal My father used to tell about
squire who would marry the young
couple that came to him in some such
form as this:

with dialogue.

good markets, plenty OF feed and
protection from diseases and para

First OF ALL we have not the best
breeding stock In the world. North
ern-bred cattle imported into the
South usually die OF Texas fever At
the same time there are many breed
.ers of good beef and dairy animals
In the South. and II is not difficult to
obtain good stock that Is immune to
Texas fever.
In the matter OF housing we have
decided advantage over the North
ern farmer.
How the Quarantine Affects Prices.
We have not the best market in
the South, nor do We receive the
highest market prices for our cattle
