The Successful Brood Mare

The stallion season will soon be
here and with 1t the prices for the bet
ter grade of horses higher than ever
before. This fact should add impetus
the stallion. Market quotations con-
tinually impress us with this fact;
that the better grade of horses" and
not the common lots are IN demand
The selling price fer good horses of
all grades is such as to allow a good
market of profit for the producer. The
particular emphasis laid upon better
grades of horses land the prices that
they actually command is only an
other proof of wisdom in the selection
and mating of mares and stations of
the better grades.
The opportunity for improvement is
Unreasonable. A glance at the class
of mares which are sent to the STALL
ion in almost any community furnishes
ample proof of this fact. Two many
mares which have passed the prime of
life and which are fit only for partial
service on the farm are bred with the
expectation that their offspring will
help to pay for their keep.
Those men who contemplate breed
ing mares should consider the follow
ing qualifications, keeping in mind the
old truth that like produces like"
The earliest age at which mares
should first produce foals is ques-
ton, but it is certain that to yield the
greatest profit on the ordinary farm
they should be bred as early as their
development will warrant, which will
vary usually from two to five years of
age. Once started, these mares should
be kept breeding regularly. Young
mules and young geldings can be made
to perform that particular farm work
which would endanger the welfare of
mare in foal Brood mares snould pe
worked steadily, thereby obtaining
sufficient exercise, an all important
factor in the production of healthy
foals. 1t is too often the case that
mares are not bred until they are too
old for work. BY starting early, the
length of their period of usefulness as
brood mares is increased, and some
argue that they increase their ability
to produce regularly.
Size is a powerful factor in the de-
termination of the values of horse

ing I was narrow shouldered."
Don't on the other hand fiatter peo-
pie about their most obvious good
qualities. They have probably heard
those same compliments so many times
before that they haven't a great deal
of value Pick out some less obvious
good point and dilate on that and you
will win yourself a warm corner in
the coolest heart.
Quite frequently the very clever girl
with the rather pretty face would a
hundred times rather be told that she
was pretty than that she was clever.
And very often the brilliant scholar
or clever business man is more proud
of his Indifferent good success as a golf
player than his business acumen or in
tellectual ability.
1t is an axiom in the science of hu-
man nature that few of us are proud
of the things we have most reason to
be proud of. The skillful fatterer, be-
ing also a skillful student of human
nature, knows this and builds on it.
One Of the cleverest tricks of the
good f1atterer is to put a spice of dis
arrangement in with his praise and
thereby make the praise seem more
genuine.
IF anyone asks my opinion Of any
thing" said one of this ilk, II always
find fault with some small detail SO
that he will think my extravagant
praise of the rest is truthful"
Of course, it's better never to flatter,
but most of us find it eXpedient if not
absolutely necessary to pay our re-
spects to the barney stone at times
and to quote from the precepts of
copy-bOok days
whats worth doing at all is worth

flesh in our present markets. Past
the mare of good size for the breed
with style and action, has been the
most successful as a producer 1t is
not the ungainly, overgrown mare that
produces the most serviceable horses
neither is it the dwarfed, anaemio
specimen that perpetuates the good
characteristics of her kind. Increase
in size is one of the greatest needs OF
our lighter class of mares. This size
can be secured only by the most care
full scrutiny of animals mated In OBJ
tanning this qualification great care
should be exercised that quality be not
sacrificed.
1t is the mare of medium refinement
to the point of decreasing size and
constitutional vigor are essential con-
siderations in selecting brood mares.
In breeding mares having an heredi-
tary unsoundness, we are inviting dis.
aster, for the law that like produces
like" holds good in the majority Of
cases. Blemishes, the results of acct
dents, are not transmitted to the Off
spring. We should always be certain,
however, that the biemishes are the re-
suit of accident, otherwise mares thus
affected should be discarded as brood
mares. There are certain essentials of
conformation for all classes of horses
and mules, whether for saddle, for
harness, or for hard labor. A head of
sufficient width and features plainly
outlined are evidence of intelligence
and good disposition. A neck of good
length showing clean-cup windpipe
with a clean throat-latch point toward
good wind. Sloping shoulders and
sloping pasterns, associated with
straight, well-set, strongly-muscled
legs and dense, tough feet are extreme
ly essential to longevity or hard SER
vice. Inc Ddck SHOuld Ue comparative
ly straight, strong, short, closely cou-
pied, well muscled and support a deep
chest of medium width, good deep
ribs and flank The rump should carry
width to the tail, which should be set
fairly high. The hind legs of the
horse should be set well under the
body. Strong hooks, well-set and
sloping pasterns are of great value.
True, level action with good style is
essential in all good horses.

NEW YORK, Nov. 19.-Chronic
first nighters, to whom the missing of
the initial production of new drama
is little short of tragedy, are now
heaving signs of relief The heavy
work of the season is about over, and
new plays now happen along only once
or twice a week Earlier in the sea-
son there were hardly enough nights
in a week to enable them to keep
up with the procession.
Seven Days" is the new offering at
the Astor, which has been used for
long-run plays during the past two
seasons, with but few new productions
to interrupt the engagement of old
success.
This play is by Mary Roberts Rine-
hart and Avery Hopwood. The for
mer wrote 1.-The Circular Staircase"
and 1.-THE Man in Lower Ten" and
Mr.. Hopwood is joint author of the
comedy Clothes"
It's situations range from extreme
farce to the delicate sentiment of re-
fined comedy, and there is pretty
love interest throughout

the cold tub because she likes it. She
is a vigorous young animal, this whole
some girl, and there is no man or
woman alive who does not admire her.
But she must be more than merely
healthy. She must be we'll groomed to
be a truly wholesome girl. She must
be glowing girl, one who shines after
the bath, and glistens after frequent
hair brushings, who exudes the frag-
rance of freshness.
The wholesome girl always has
bright eyes. Her fund of health and
the excellent care she takes of it make
them so. The wholesome girl builds
her beauty upon the firm foundation
whose cornerstone is health. Her eyes
are bright because she takes sufficient
rest The girl who is never i'll and
who is never or seldom tired cannot
have dull eyes. And the whites of her
eye will be whites, not striated reds,
nor milky blues, nor pale yellows.
Red trimmed eyes, or eyes with gran
ular lids, or with anemic lashes the
wholesome girl will have none of. If
for any reason these conditions appear
she soon banishes them. By natural
means first, and natural means are
those which follow the reckoning lead
of nature. She knows that the distig-
uring red rim around the eyes is a
sign that the eyes are tired and she
rests them as much as possible. She
retires earlier and rises later so that
she may have an hour or two more for
sleep. She eschews parties. She avoids
the midday glare of the sun She rests
after luncheon, whether she sleeps or
not. To the darkened room, which is
the growing place of beauty, she goes
and, loosening her clothes, she lies in
what l have often recommended as the
best posture for resting-f1at on the
back. And she does not strain her
eyes by staring into the shadows
around her, but adds to the soothing
effect of the darkness by closing her
eyes
If by any accident the lids have be-
come granular, as may have CHANGED
to be the result of excessive golf, or
excessive automobiling, the wholesome
girl does not permit the disorder OF
grow. She knows that rest is to some
extent corrective of the evil If this
does not quickly remove it I advise
seeing a physician at once 1 cannot
, conscientiousIy recommend any lotion
for a disorder so serious and disfigur-
ing. A physicians advice is necessary
For heavy, f1abby, soft eyelids, which
will wrinkle early into a prematurely
aged appearance, the wholesome girl
seeks first the extra sleep and rest
that are the greatest tissue repairers
To gently assist nature in the work
of regeneration she may resort to this

CUTICURA REMEDIES
ENTIRELY CURED Her

About two years ago I contracted
eczema and suffered intensely for about
ten months. At times | thought I
would scratch myself to pieces. My
face and arms were covered with large
red patches, so that l was ashamed to
go out. l was advised to go to a doctor
who was specialist in skin diseases,
but received very little relief / tried
every known remedy, with the same
results. 1 thought / would never get
better until friend of mine told me to
try the Cuticura Remedies. So tried
them as the last resource, and am very
glad that l did, for after four or five
applications of Cuticura Ointment / was
relieved of my unbearable itching. I
used two sets of the Cuticura Remedies
(Soap, Ointment and Pills., and l am
completely cured. I always recon-
mend Cuticura to any one that is suf-
fering and in every case it seems to cure.

accomplishment that comes in handy

Pooh. anyone can :la.lc'" con.ri i.
92:cs somebody.
Yes, anyone can. flatter, but not
gracefully.
Flattery to be pretty must of course
wear a mask and the average person
doesn't know how to pay compliment
without labelling it flattery so obvi-
ously that it loses most of it's value.
To be able to flatter with real subtle
ness takes practice, but here are few
suggestions which, if he will adopt
them, will make the average persons
attempts at fattery rather less crude.
Never fatter a woman who appears
to have any common sense about some
grace that common sense will tell her
she does not possess.
For instance, never try to make a
girl with obviously large feet think you
admire her cunning little shoes.
Ten to one you'll find out she's sem
sible enough to be offended rather than
pleased.
This rule doesn't hold with men, as
most men have more capacious epiglotti
in the matter of fiattery and will very
easily swallow dose that a third per-
SON would call impossible.
The only time the average man ever
admits to himself that he is wrong and
a woman is right, is when some woman
flatters him about a charm that he did
not think he possessed.
If some woman, for instance, tells
narrow hested, stoop- shouldered man
that she admires his broad, manly
shoulders, he will probably say to him
self, 81 guess l was mistaken in think

Besides these features, it has an
other rather original one in these days;
it is perfectly clean and free from all
suggestive situations.
The action transpires at the present
time in residence on Riverside Drive
and deals with a number of New York
people of wealth and refinement who
by a curious train of circumstances
are brought there to spend a week to-
gether. There are three scenes, the first
in the drawing room, where the trouble
begins, the second in the kitchen, which
has a picturesque furnishing of Dutch
blue thing, and where the fun rises
fast and furious, and the final scene on
the roof, which is beautifully decorat-
ed and illuminated, and where the final
destinoes of all are satisfactorily set
tied.
