should profit by the experience OF
Kansas. Farmers east of the mount
aims and in many parts of Oregon
seem to be using their entire energy
in the growing of apples. Many of
the small ranchers west of the mount
aims seems to use no efforts but raise
fruits. The small fruits as we'll as
apples. There is no state in the
Union whose climate and conditions
are better suited to the growing of
livestock than the Pacific Northwest.
Our coast climate resembles that of
Great Britain to a greater extent than
that of any other state in the Union.
Great Britain today has the worlds
best trade in all kinds of pure live
stock. In the matter of breeds, the
American Registery Association has
been talking for years of getting
South America trade away from Great
Britain, but small progress has been
made. Farmers generally over the
United States think home bred, pure
bred draft stations are not nearly so
good as an imported horse.
Our conventions and our shows have
demonstrated and exhibited specimens
equally as good as the best ever i'm
ported. However, the kind of climate
common to Great Britain and that part
of the Northwest on the coast, west of
the mountains, is particularly adapted
to the raising of a superior quality of
live stock of any kind.
The dampness with our prevailing,
but mild degree of cold, grows a bet
ter coat of hair on horses and cattle.
The writer does not know whether
this is true of the wool of the sheep
and goat, and would like to hear from
our readers on this subject, as we'll
as any other that may interest them
in these columns. The uniformity of
the climate, together with the ability
to get green grass almost the year
round is certainly an added value.
From time to time we hope to give
attention to various classes of live
stock in this department. In this
issue we are going to give some atten-
ton to the horse.
OUTLOOK FOR DRAFT HORSES
1t has been heralded widely that
the advent of automobiles would
drive the horse breeders out Of ex-
istence. Time, however, has proven
the fallacy of this prediction. Several
weeks ago the largest dealers in high
priced harness horses in the country
failed. They had stables in New York
and Chicago. This was the Tichenor-
Grand Co. While they dealt in fancy
harness horses principally, they tried
to spread themselves over the entire
field Of horse merchandising. With
such wide spreading, disaster was
inevitable. A large part of their money
was in fancy carriage horses, and
time has proven that the automobile
has largely supplanted these.
All that is left of our great Cali
fornia racing stables is few deluded
breeders who still think there is money
in raising race horses, fancy sad
dlers. and beautiful drivers. Another
class that is living on the mistakes of

THE UPLIFTING FORCE OF Wo.
MAN

The most uplifting force in all the
world is woman. Her influence up
lifts and ennobles. Without the ey-
ample she sets civilization would
languish and the world would rapidly
deteriorate. She teaches man by pre-
cept and example the higher duties
of life. The gentleness of her ma
ture will drive the brute out of man,
If any power on earth will do it.
Men who are not habitually associat-
ed with women lose the finer quail
ties of their natures and become at
heart coarse, vulgar and selfish. This
may be hidden by an assumed man
ner, but the lack of the influence of
woman has robbed the life of some.
thing which can never be replaced.
The man who has lost respect and
admiration for woman is depraved.
He has surrendered the motive pow
er, the moving force of right living.
His course is thereafter downward.
The man who will not be manly be-
cause of the influence of women
friends, his mother, or wife, is hope
lessly lost. Woman has uplifted the
world to where it rests today and is
the power holding it there. She de-
serves to be honored, cherished, low
ed. She should never stoop beneath
the dignity of her queenliness or for
get her responsibility to elevate, up
lift and inspire.-Greenville (Fla.)

FARMERS

The Ocala Fertilizer Company
has bought the seed department of
Baxter earn, and will continue the
business in the same place under the
name of "Ocala Seed Store"
We have in fresh supply of seeds,
and will try to keep everything in the
seed line. We will appreciate the
continuance of the custom already es-
tablished in this department, and so
licit any new business, guaranteeing
prompt and courteous service to all.
WE ARE GOING TO SELL SEEDS
AND FERTILIZERS AND SELL

buy all the VELVET BEANS and
PEANUTS we can secure, and a
limited amount of HAY, CORN, Pc
TATOES, SYRUP, etc. We expect to
build up trade in all these farm pro-
ducts, and if the FARMER will help
us, we will give him good market
for every staple crop he raises. We
are going to make our place central
headquarters, so that every farmer
will know wheer to sell and where to
buy. Come to see us and make our
place headquarters.

a PRAYER FOR HER

Dear God, only ask that thou shalt
walk with her in each new path she
finds (for ways are long and hard for
little feet to go); but ask that thou
shalt guide her, lest she be. afraid.
Twas thou who fashioned her as one
would form a perfect hover; thou,
who made her pure and white as
thine own thought 1t is for thee to
know what years shall bring for her,
and yet, in all, be tender with her
And as she learns each thing, all
new, let thy love and grace direct
her. May thy hands point out for
her each thing thou knoweth best
For now the world is warm and wide
for her, and life is radiant as spring
time. Be thou with her. Let the
joys that thou shalt give be fraughi
with perfume of May flowers thai
neither dim nor pale (but lingeI
when summer-tide would blight) and
mellow into autumn's gold. May thy
compassion guard for her each dream
of her desire. and may thy under
standing lead her in paths of tender
ness and kindness now she knows
Bring to her the glory of thy stars
and yet allow that still she stooT
along the lowly ways and give to 9th
ers blessings that her heart has
learned. May the wild, sweet songs
she hears at morning only come to
soften strains of memory. Abide
thou with her in these joys. But be
thou nearest when Disappointment
come; when dreams are lost that
were not best to be; when friendships
weaken and misunderstanding dark
en- where sunlight was. In these
days be most her friend. Let her
understand and beg that God shall
then know that love still waits and
of loving kindness, so that she may
know that God still loves when trials
come, that the path she walks with
thee shall bring her perfect peace
Teach her that those who love shall
bless her as they love. And when at
last she comes into the realization OF
her hopes, and olden joys are gath.

LOOK PLEASANT

We cannot, of course, all be hand
some,
And it's>hard for us all to be good
We are sure, now and then, to be
lonely,
And we don't always do what we
should.
To be patient is not always easy,
To be cheerful is much harder still;
But at least we can always be pleas
ant,
If We make up our minds that we
WILL
And it pays every time to be kindly
Although we feel worried and blue
If you smile at the world, and look
cheerful,
The world will smile back at you
So try to brace up and look pleasant,
No matter how low you are down;
Good humor is always contagious,
But you Danish your friends when
you frown.

FLIGHT ON THE GAME LAW

AS soon as anyone in Marion sees
that head on the first page, he will
think that the corntassel philosopher
has got into the game, and some folks
who don't appreciate the sage of Red
dick as the Star does will pass on to
the next column.
It's only an ebullition of ministerial
and editorial opinion between those
two intellectual kings, Coleman and
Harris, alongside of whom the editor
gladly gives them a column to argue
1T out, tho in his humble way he
doesn't entirely agree with either.
It's the Stars opinion that the game
law should be made much more rigid
than it is-that killing of all birds
except hawks and such predatory
fowls, should be stopped for two or
more years-this not only for the
sake of the game, but for that of the
farmers, whose crops are in danger
from worms and insects. The Star
thinks man has an inherent right to
hunt or trap on his own land, but he
should temporarily surrender that
right for the common good.
The Star agrees with the Banner
when it says:
This paper holds that birds should
only be killed as chickens are-for
the table; never for sport. Men who
have the leisure to shoot for sport
should confine their operations and
exertions to the destruction of clay
pigeons"
Both the Banner and the Star are
hopelessly in the minority on this
question however, but they hope that
the day may come when all men, and
women, will realize how cruel it is to
needlessly kill or MAIN any living
thing.-Ocala Ewing Star.
