A WORD OF CAUTION.

A word of caution to the lucky fellow
who owns a youngster by Brown Braden,
213 IA, and thinks of training it this
season. They all come to their speed
very fast. Soon after you have begun
training some of you will, no doubt,
think you have champion and ask of it
too much before it is ready.
Four (3-year-olds) by Brown Braden
We're trained last year. Three of them
were temporarily if not permanently in
jured because they had extreme speed,
and We're not properly seasoned to carry
it.
Direct Braden 3-year-old, 1920 IA,
had shown half in LOS and a quarter in
80 seconds before he was allowed to beat
2 80, and this was after he had been at
the race track in training three months.
Two months later he showed a mile at
Belfast in 215 1-2, and looked stronger
finishing than when he first beat 2. 80.
Don't hurry them too much gentlemen,
and we are sure they will uphold the
reputation of their family. Turf, Farm
and Home.

THE CALIFORNIA REDWOODS.

Few people realize the rapidity of
growth of the coast redwood trees of
California. Because some of the large
trees Of this family are thousand years
or more in age, often attaining size
where they are larger than any other
tree, excepting the famous Big Trees,
redwood has the reputation of being a
very slow growing tree. AS matter Of
fact, redwood sprouts growing from
stumps of older trees are among the
most rapid growing of our native trees.
To illustrate this point, the United
States Forest Service will exhibit at the
Alaska Yukon-Pacifc Exposition in
Seattle this summer, sections from
young redwood sprout, together with
explanatory diagrams showing its rate of
growth in diameter, height and volume.
This tree, which was cut from the Du-
pont Powder works tract near Santa
Cruz, is over 80 inches in circumference
at the stump, almost 1875 feet in height,
and is only At years of age. These di-
mansions indicate growth of IL inch in
diameter per year, and an annual growth
of almost ITO feet in height.
Trees of an even more rapid growth
were seen in the Big River country of
Mendocino county, California, where red
wood sprouts over 30 inches in diameter
on the stump and 1875 to 16O feet in height
were found growing on land cut over 40
to As years ago. Redwood sprouts thus
rival in their rate of growth the much
lauded eucalyptus.

KEEPING THE LAND YACHT SHIP.
SHAPE,

Automobiles are the yachts of the
land. The dangers of negotiating the
roads are as great as those of navigating
the highways of the sea; the emergen-
cies met with are more sudden and dan
gerous than those encountered by water
craft. Automobiles ought, therefore, to
be kept always shipshape. and their cap
tain-pilots should cultivate the habit of
giving attention to every little detail
1t is really inexcusable, for example, for
motorist to run out of gasoline unex-
pectedly on an ordinary days run of 100
miles or less when the fuel-tank has
capacity sufficient for 12O to 200 miles;
yet it is not an unusual experience for a
pleasure party to get stalled for want of
gasoline on an ordinary run, and find
themselves under the annoying necessity
OF walking mile, or quite likely several
miles, to buy fresh supply, which, as
often as not, has to be carried back
afoot. Since gasoline is the first essen
tlal to progress in motor-car, and it
requires only the simple removal of the
filling-cap and sounding" with lead
pencil, bit of string, wire, or clean stick,
to determine the quantity remaining in
the tank, the motorist might with reason
be expected to assure himself of an
| amply sufficient quantity before starting
| on trip of whatever length.
Since probably nine-t enths of the in
voluntary road stoppages are due to
trouble with carburetion or ignition, the
carbureter and it's attachments and the
connections from the fuel-tank need spec
lal and frequent attention. A not in
frequent cause of trouble on the road is
stoppage of the flow Of gasoline from the
tank to the carbureter. Usually the
location of the trouble takes consider
| able time, which might be saved by
periodical cleaning of the pipe and drain
ing of the carbureter, to remove any
particles of dirt that may have collected.
1t is worth while, also, to examine occa-
sionally the connections Of the piping,
which sometimes become loosened and
permit the gasoline to leak, and to look
at the connections between the throttle
and its operating lever, which are usual
| ly of delicate nature, and rather easily
damaged or deranged when working
| about the engine with heavy TOOLS
| A good rule for the motorist to adopt
| matters relating to his machine, and to
be constantly anticipating trouble. The
| optimist is too likely to belong to the
Don't Worry Club, and to be negligent
on the principle of letting well enough
| alone. Constant vigilance and fore
thought are the price that must be paid
for pleasure and safety in automobiling.
Larry McKilwin, in Harper's Weekly.
People past middle life usually have some
kidney or bladder disorder that saps the vital
ity, which is naturally lower in old age. Foey's
Kidney Remedy corrects urinary troubles,
stimulates the kidneys, and restores strength
and vigor. 1t uric acid troubles by
strengthening the kidneys so they will strain
out the uric acid that settles in the muscles
