It is a awful hard job to think
up a new subjeckt for editorial in
the Bugle every week-it is hard
.er Job than most folks have any
idea of. If our Subscribers thinks
that we set down in our sanktum
Sancktorum and take up our edito-
rial pen and dash off a red hot edi-
torial for the Bugle each week on
the spur Of the moment they are a
good cal mistaken because we do
mot do so, we never have did so and
we never eXpeCkt TO did so.
SubJecktS for able editorials IN
the Bugle do not come to us unso-
lisited-we haft to think deeply and
skratch Our he'd and chew the end
OF our pen holder and cudgle our
editorial brains in order 10 dig up a
editorial subieckt each week. Some
times It is a turrible mental struggle
land other times it is almost nmpos-
Isible.
Our Subscribers seem to have a
idea that it amt no effort at all for
lus to write a editorial-our subsc-
krlbers probly gets this idea because
when they read the Bugle editorials
the words flows along so smooth
and the editorial is so plain even to
a person almost dehshient in human
| intelleckt that, therefore, because
! they are easy to read and under
stand they are easy for uS1o write.
The readers of the Bugle don't
seem to appreshiate what a awful
responsibility 1t is to write editorial
opinions for a vast number of sub
sckribers who aint got no opinions
of their own-they don't seem to
understand what important place
the editor Of the Bugle fills in this
world when he sets down on a
legged orffice chair and with no
other tools exsept a bottle of ink,
rusty pen, few sheets Of paper
and a massive brain molds publick
opinion into whatever shape he
wants to mold it and turns the tide
of publick sentiment from one di-
reckshion into the other by a few
strokes Of the pen.
Sometimes our Subscribers don't
agree with our editorial opinion but
that is their folt not ours-that IS
because they are defshient in intel
leckt and cant grab as deep into the
current topicks of the day as we
can, A Bugle subscriber ort to
hesitate a long time before disa-
greeing with our editorial opinion
he ort to post hisself up on what we
have wrote about instead of setting
his own opinion up against ours and

sheen Experiment.

An experiment which will be watch.
ed with much interest by all New En-
gland, and which may be the means of
revolutiOnizing the present method of
farming here, is about to be tried by
the Maplecrest Stock and Poultry Farm
Association, Springfield, Mass.
The association is planning to bring
1000 sheep from the western part of
the country and put them on farms in
and around Middlefield and Beckett.
The sheep are merinos and will be
mated with dorset rams of local ex-
traction.
Some of the reasons which prompted
the association to bring the sheep are
the decreasing ratio of the meat sup
ply and the constantly increasing popu-
lation Of the country.
Scotch herders will be brought here
with the sheep and will be used in
stead Of dogs or fences to keep them
from straying, as 1t is claimed that
more care can be given by professional
herders.

Care in Feeding working Hor.e,

Care in Feeding Working Horaes
Horse feeding is not given the atten-
ton 1t should be by some farmers.
That Of the COW and sheep is carefully
examined and discussed but oftentimes
the horses feed is just all the hay he
can eat and various quantities of corn
and oats, according to the work being
done. Although oats and hay are ideal
food, they should not be fed exclusive
ly. Horses like variety as well as
does any other animal. Good timothy.
early cut and well cured, is the best
hay for horses, but many farmers feed
too much hay. If the horse is expect
ed to do extra hard work he should be
literally and frequently fed. 1t is best
to water horses as they come In from
work or before feeding. If watered
soon after feeding, the stomach, being
small, is liable to be partially emptied
by the water Of the undigested food
which causes bowel trouble or loss Of
food.
