Biting a Horse.

'Many Il good horse is spoiled by
improper biting" says N. Newllam-
Davids in the July Outing. His adj
vice on the subject is well worth
reading, for instance:
'In making a horse, whether for
riding or driving, there is no factor
more essential to a satisfactory re-
suit than proper biting, and as the
proper biting of horse depends OH
his temperament, conformation and
previous handling, to mention only a
few of the details to be taken into
consideration. it is not task to be
undertaken lightly by novices in
equestrian lore.
"The object in selecting a bit is to
obtain the widest possible range be-
tween comparative liberty and COM
plete control. For this purpose that
bit should be selected which is the
least severe one that will insure con-
troll. There exists Il very popular
fallacy to the effect that "A pulling
horse should be always severely bit
ted. Never was a more fatal error
made. Pulling horses are made not
foaled and hard mouths are the result
OF unsuitable bits, bad hands, or a
combination of the two. For trying
new horse in harness there is per-
haps no bit equal to the English
Liverpool, with plain, straight
mouthpiece, preferably sliding on the
cheeks. Among riding bits the one
par excellence is the Weymouth bit
and bridoon."

WHAT A HOME.
STEADER DID

One of the first homesteaders in the
Hedgesville district was George Eb-
erhart, and probably no other indivi-
dual in central Montana has received
so many compliments on his first sea-
sons agricultural work as has the
above mentioned gentleman. His
place is located about four miles
southwest of Hedgesville, and has
been visited by scores of interested
parties, who always returned mar
Yelling at the results attained by the
persevering homesteader. Mr.. Eber-
hart believes in doing his work thor
oughly, and being without funds af-
ter building cabin and barn, he
spaded two acres of land and later
hired ten acres broken, sowing
the same to little patches of cereals
and garden stuff. His claim lies on
the top of high bench, and at pre-
sent he has no well and irrigation
by any system is impossible. How
ever, he was enthusiastic from the
start, and his enthusiasm and the re-
suits of scientific farming have in
stalled the belief in hundreds of per-
sons that profitable returns can be
secured even during the most unfav-
orable seasons if the approved meth
dds of conserving moisture will be
practised. Mr.. Eberhart this year
raised good, paying cereal crops.
His garden was the wonder of the
district. From a two-acre patch of
onions he sold nearly 500 worth Of
this popular vegetable, and still has
many left. His green corn was on
the Hedgesvile market nearly
month ago. Cucnmbers, tomatoes,
beets, parsnips, oyster plants. radish-
es, lettuce, potatoes and many other
vegetables were raised in abundance
without drop Of water other than
iNA HIouVu ~ IdlUIt. we quote
some of the remarks made by dis
tinguished persons who visited the
place: "Any one interested, directly
or indirectly, in farming in this dis
trict should visit Mr. Eberharts
place. No matter how much the visi-
tor may know of farming, he can't
help but learn something's 81 have
travelled all over Montana, and have
visited all the experimental stations
in the western and central western
states and at no other place have
seen garden produce raised without
irrigation that equals Mr.. Eberhart's.
In fact, not even the irrigated gar
dens eNcelled his" Its wonderful
right on top of high bench, not Il
drop of water in sight-the way that
man Eberhart makes stuff grow dur
ing this unusually dry year" Re-
marks could be continued by the doz-
en-, but the above will suffice to show
that the gentleman in question has
produced results that have been as
founding to those unacquainted with
the possibilities of scientific farming.

in practically every congressional dis

MACS LUCK

The Young Woman Reporters Story.
The following food tale written by
clever young newspaper woman is
true story that came under her
personal observation:
ct have been with the "a
paper in a California town. for nine
years and Mac has been with us all
that time and 1 do not know how
much longer.
Last winter and the winter be-
fore Mac, probably from constant
night work and improper food, got
badly run down, could not eat much,
what little he did eat did not do him
much good and he always complain
ed he could not keep warm.
at missed him for a while until
yesterday l overlook him on the
street going toward the Office, and
hardly knew the man; had it not
been for the familiar walk l should
surely have passed without recogniz-
ing him. He was stout, his face was
round and rudy and his eyes bright
as 1 had never seen them before.
ri said, Mac, 1 hardly knew you,
what on earth have you been doing
to get so fat?' He replied Grape
Nuts, nothing else. I started in on
Grape-Nuts food three months ago
when 1 weighed 1875 and was feeling
miserable but now 1 weigh 16O and
feel better than 1 ever felt in my
life. 1 quit my old diet and went on
Grape-Nuts and that's the whole
story"
Exercfse is necessary Int there's
no nourishment in it and proper
food alone can supply that. Grape
Nuts for 10 days is a pleasant trial
and proves big things.
There's a Reason"
Look in packages for the famous
little book, THE Road to Wellville."
Ever read the above letter? A new
one appears from time to time. They
are genuine, true and full of human
interest.
