Side Remarks.

Years ago it was the fashion for the
home to have grand baby in it, but
now only a baby grand is wanted.
Hard work is the only latchkey to
success, and success never chides if
you are weak enough to stay out all

No man knows how sweet sugar is

Here is the way one of our success.
full dairymen figures out the advant.
age of rearing his own COWS. He says
really good cow is worth from $50
to $50 in almost any dairying section
and at almost any time of the year.
In his opinion we can grow heifer
up to the time she is two years old
for $40 and then she will pay her way
until she is worth $50 or more, pro-
viding, of course, nothing befalls her.
We have the thing we want reared
under our own eyes, and better for
all practical purposes than anything
that we could buy for more money.
The convenience of having the COW
we want at hand without having to
look for her is important.

Don't make a practice OF doping
your fowls.
If the wind blows the mulch off the
strawberry beds put it on again.
Give the sheep only as muck clover
or mixed hay as they will eat up
clean
The successful stock-raiser must
know how to feed, what TO feed and
how much.
Now Is the time to overhaul all the
farm machinery and put it in shape
for next seasons work.
Stop guessing and use the scales
and the Babcock tester to find out
What your cows are doing.
The profit on small flock we'll
kept is certain, while that on a large
flock poorly-kept is hard to find at all
1t takes judgment 10 buy feeding
stock, as many a man has discovered
after he has gotten a lot of feeders
that wont fatten.
Sprinkle the dusty hay with water
before feeding to the horse. The dust
is very bad for his lungs and the lungs
are vital part of the horse.
You cant make a good furrow in
life while the temper is ruffled.
Smooth out the kinks, get good

The barn ought to be handy to the
house Think of the amount of walk

when the barn lies quarter to half
unfle from the house.
Extra good butter always commands
a few cents more a pound than the
regular market price, but poor butter
is always at the bottom Which
grade are you marketing?
Many a man who uses @ whip in
bEeaking the colt needs to apply the
whip to himself rather than to the
colt He who cannot control his own
temper cannot hope to gain control
over the unbroken colt.
When horse is working he needs
enough feed to supply the energy de-
manded of him plus the necessary
amount to keep him in good condi-
tion. When he is idle he only needs
suffcient feed to keep him in fair COZ
dition.
Next to a good laying strain, the
best to start with Is a healthy flock
of birds. Good healthy breeding stock
will produce with good, strong consti.
tutions, birds that will not be liable
to disease. and these are the fowls we
want to put into our pens both for
eggs and breeding.

steers fed corn silage as a part Of

hose fed corn stover. The steers fed
corn stover ate more grain than those

was more where corn silage was used

WHAT Is TO BE WILL BE, PER-
HAPS.

Ia our day few people believe, un-
reservedly. in Fatalism. Particularly
- regards business affairs. and the
minor episodes Of life. practical folks
have learned that events are as clay
N our hands, to be shaped and fash
toasd a. We will.
Charles Dickens makes one of his
people. in Little Dorritt, say:
In our course through life We
shall meet the people who are COM
tAg to meet US, from strange places
and by many strange roads-and
what 1t Is set to US to do to them
and what it is set to them to do to
~, will all be done Be sure that
there are men and women already on
their roads who have their business
to do with you. and who will do il.
They may be coming hundreds or
thousands of miles over the sea-they
may be close At hand now"
This fragment has characteristic
power and beauty, but nowadays we
n uBl amend IL WQdt IL lS Set Tor
~ to do to them may, in truth.
"ail be done: if, indeed, anything
is set for us to do to them or for
them to do to US, OF this we have
no very strong assurance. We all
hope, too, that there may be long
procession of men and women on
their roads who have business to do
with US, and who will do it-but we
greatly fear that, unless we advertise
effectively. many of these people
will get into the wrong shops and
transact their business with the
wrong people.
In fact. IL we hide our lights
pretty thoroughly we may be sure
that these pilgrims will miss us
completely-andt thus violate the Fa-
talistic creed. But by mixing our
fatalism with liberal amount OF
want advertising we may be of po-
tent assistance to the fates in bring
ing things to pass concerning our
selves, and, II you have noticed the

A REPUBLICAN VIEW,

II is perfectly safe to say that Mr.
Bryan stands higher in the estimate
of all men today than he ever has
before. And this Notwithstanding
that his electoral vote will stand at
smaller figure than in 1895 or
1900.
His position today has almost no
thing to do with election. II has
everything to do with the mans cit
izenship. And today We venture to
believe that William Jennings Bryan
has q position not granted to Mr..
Roosevelt nor to Mr.. Taft, the po-
sition OF the first citizen. He is the
private citizen; he will go down to
history as the private citizen. He
