Arab Horses Live LONGEST.

A remarkable contrast in the work
ing life of horses is called to mind by
the international show now in pro-
gress at Olympia. An English thor
oughbred seldom lives to a ripe old
age; 90, however, is not an excep-
tional age for an Arab steed.
Although he cannot compete with
the English or American thorough
bred for speed, there is no horse in
the world like the Arab for endurance
and all-round fitness. Lord Roberts
rode the same Arab through all his
campaigns, covering in % years dis
lance of some $4,000 miles.
For the last 5000 years horses IN
Arabia have been Injured to hardy
usage and very scanty feeding from
earliest youth. Now they represent a
splendid example of natures hard
rule-the survival of the fittest.

Goodale has been exhibiting at an
amusement park for several weeks,
and his engagement ended there on
the day of his adventure. He was
told to appear the next day at Hill
side park, near Belleville, on the out
skirts of Newark. Goodale deter
mined to fly the eight miles between
the two parks. He got away from the
amusement park about 4:30 o'clock.
After five minutes of flight Goodale
ran into a dense fog, and in the
gloom lost his way. He directed his
machine close 10 the earth, and found
himself near Homestead, N. j., where
he inquired of several men the direc-
tion of Newark. They shouted to him
that he was headed in the right d.
rection. He encountered dense gloom
again and rightly determined that he
was passing over the Jersey meadows.
The fog and dampness Debated the
gas of Goodale's machine, and it be-
gan to sink. Then without warning,
the engine stopped and Goodale and
his airship descended violently on the
marsh land.
Goodale said afterwards that he
sank in the mud and water up to his
waist, and only by the exercise of all
his strength was he able to save him.

IMPORTANCE OF CATTLE

cessful rearing of well-bred cattle
Toward the west the country is noun
famous and areas suitable for either
agriculture or cattle raising are nc:
large.
The number Of beef cattle In Ar
gentina at the present time is various
ly estimated at twenty-five to thirty
million, while the sheep population is
from seventy to hundred million.
The entire area of the Argentine re-
public is about one-third of the area OF
the United States, exclusive of Alaska.
The cattle live out of doors through
out the year and are strangers to
barns OF even open sheds.
Charlevoix county herald., 1909-09-11

Of the area is owned in tracts of $500
acres or more.
Twenty to forty thousand acres
owned by one man is by no means I'M
usual. This, of course, means that cat
tie production is carried on on an ex-
tensive scale.
All parts of Argentina are, of course,
not equally well adapted to cattle rails
ing, both on account of temperature
and products of the land. 1t may be
said, however, that there is no grain
feeding of cattle in Argentina, even
among ranchmen who produce we'll
bred cattle intended for the export
Charlevoix county herald., 1909-09-11

Generally speaking but few citizens
of the United States appreciate the i'm
portance of Argentina as cattle-rais-
ing country 1t is not to be wondered
at that North Americans, with vast
areas of fertile soil only partially &C.
cupied and developed, have failed to
study conditions in the southern re-
public, and consequently have almost
universally lost sight of the great OPP
portunities which have been presented
there for beef production.
The ranches, or 'estancias," as they
are called, are extensive. Some idea
can be gathered from the fact that in
the province of Santa Fe Ga per cent.
