.PASTERNS OF THE
DRAFT HORSE,

The time was not very long ago when
a draft horse was supposed to have
short. upright pastern and an upright
shoulder. The inference was that a
horse with short. upright pastern
was stronger than a horse that had
long sloping pastern. l am not pre-
pared to deny that statement. says DR..
Henry G. Reed don't know but that
there Is something In it. If you take
a draft horse with straight up and
down formation there is a possibility,
everything else being equal. that that
horse might move a heavier load than
horse with springing pastern. Why
do not we want that? That is what
draft horses are for. and If they have
formation which will enable them to
move heavier load why is not that
the correct formation? 1t is simply
because these horses will not wear
You all know that the best of these
draft horses get into the city: they
spend their lives dra wing drays up and
down the paved streets of the city,
and every time the horse with
straight up and down formation puts
his foot on the hard pavement 1t is a
straight up and down impact. and the
horse will become sore before he is on
the pavement any considerable time.
Take a horse with pastern fairly
long and slOping; every time he puts
his foot down there Is q spring which
relieves the conclusion. and as q re.
suit of that the hoOf will stand the
wear and tear a much greater period
than horse with short up and
down formation. We like fairly slop.

ought not to be carried away with the
fact that because horse has

HOW THE SlLO HELPS.

By means Of the silO more of
the food value of forage can be
saved than by any other method
Of preservation.
The silO affords the means of
keeping in small compass
large quantity of forage safe
from the weather and in con-
venient form to feed.
Forage placed in the silo keeps
at uniform quality, whereas
field cured forage constantly de-
teriOrates.
Considering the food value
saved. the silo affords the cheap
est means for forage preserva-
tiOn.
Because Of the palatability
and succulence silage possesses
higher feeding value than does
the same forage dry cured. Con-
sentative feeders estimate that
the silo doubles the value of the
forage crop.
Silage can be used in summer
and fall to supplement pasture.
1t has been conclusively prov
ed that the silO effects a cOnsid-
cradle saving in the cost of pro-
duction of beef. mutton and
milk.
The silO enables the farner
to keep more live stock. which
promotes the rotation Of crops .
and the preservation Of soil fer .

The Shire mare Finstall Bonnie
Princess. herewith shown. was a
first prize winner at the internal
tionaI show last year. The showing
OF Shires at the International was
about the biggest thing of its kind
ever pulled Off on the American
continent. This strong. heavily
built. active English horse seems to
be gaining a good deal of favor
among American horsemen in re-
cent years. A noticeable feature
was the large number of grays ex-
hfbfted In striking contrast to the
solid dark colOrs prevalent q few
years ago.

SIDE
ISSUE

Selling pianos is not our only object in
life---it is merely one Of our means Of liveli-
hood. 1t is one of the occupations which
allow us to live in your neighborhood--to
be your neighbors Yes, we'll be frank. selling
pianos is a side issue with us---our main issue
is living here in Lynden happily and content
ed as your neighbors.
If this be true, and we think you will
agree it is, could we afford to tell you one
thing and do another? We are not here for
a week, or month, or year---we are here
for lifetime. We want your children to
tell our children that their fathers traded with
us and were treated right.
That is why, when we decided to sell
pianos we took the agency for the Baldwin
Made Pianos. We know they are what we
say they are We won't feel offended if
you buy some other make Of piano but we
do believe it will be money in your pocket
and satisfaction in time to come if you will
see our pianos and talk with US about them
before buying or promising to buy any other
make.

Unrestricted sprinkIino Privileges.

Spokane, Wash, July 29.-Alexander
Lindsay, superintendent of the local
water department, claims worlds
record for pumping more than 5S,O00,-
900 gallons of water in twenty-four
hours and keeping the reservoirs full.
Two units of 24,000,000 gallons capac-
ity were held in reserve. These fig
ures mean that 500 gallons of water
was pumped for every man, woman
and child in Spokane, or a total of
100000 gallons more than was
pumped during any day last year. The
water was furnished at temperature
of 4S degrees, being pumped from deep
wells. The waterworks system Is
owned by the municipality. The people
OF Spokane have practically unrestrict-
ed sprinkling privileges between 6
a. m. and p. m. Under the former
administration there were water fam
ines in the outlying districts, but this
has been remedied by the installation
of large mains, through which water is
delivered at high pressure to all parts
of the city within the three-mile circle.

EXPENSIVE AUTO RIDE

Yesterday afternoon three young
men rode into town in an automobile,
coming through Hearne at noon. Upon
arrival they were met by the local
officers and placed under arrest by
OF ders of the city marshal at Hearne,
charged with speeding on Main street
at that place. They were given the
choice OF going to jail or paying the
fine imposed by the Hearne officials,
which was $685.. Between them they
managed to scrape up the required
amount, but evidently were relieved of
the major portion of their funds. The
Hearne officers insist that the speed
limit be obeyed at that place. The
young men claimed to be from San
Antonio.
