To make colt easy to break. you
should make friends with it. Gain its
confidence by feeding 1t from your
hand, petting and currying. A colt is
nearly half broken when you can
catch It anywhere.
The colt should first be halterbroke.
At first you viii need the assistance
Of driver. but he should be dis
pensed with as soon as possible.
A good way to halterbreak colt
Is alongside horse. The rider can
act as leader and driver. Some per
sons tie the colt to the harness OF the
work horse or trotter. This not only

The gas company stretches no OBJ

year for the privilege-it calls it a
privilege of putting pipes under the
sidewalks. In addition, it pays $4,000
900 a year for its franchise, and lights
the streets and public buildings at
cost. Street car lines are kept on
the principal downtown avenues, SO
that these are free of both wires and
tracks.

table scraps given when fresh are the
main reliance. The food should not
be sailed, and fresh water should be
supplied regularly.
Skunks are especially fond Of in
sects, and if the pens are large
enough and fayorably placed, the ami
mails will forage for a part of their
food.
At least an acre of ground should
be Enclosed for each fifty skunks, and
even then there is danger Of canni-
balism unless there are plenty OF
separate dens for the females. The
fence should be made Of poultry net
ting 11a-ineh mesh. The posts should
be set in bitches IS inches or more
in depth. which should be filed with
broken stone or concrete. Another
plan Is to extend the wire netting
underground. The fence should be
three or four feet high and have an
overhang at the top to keep the ami
mails from climbing over.
Skunks breed once year and pro
duce from six to eight young. They
are born in May or June. and mature
by December.

Selection of Animals.

Success in beef production Is due.
as it is in any other branch of farm
ing. to close attention to the business
details, chief among which is careful
selection Of a well-bred and mature
sire from one of the beef breeds, pre-
ferably from that breed most COM
monty represented in the neighbor-
hood. Such a selection is likely to re-
suit in good grade Of stock Of kind

Raising Early Lambs.

The sole object in raising early
lambs is to produce fine animal Of
good size and flesh and get him to
market at the earliest possible mo-
ment. To do that requires good feed
ing, good care and good management
from the time he is born until he is
sent to market.

Farmers In the south still cling
to the light breeds Of horses, mainly
because there is more horseback rid
ing done, and the average farmer
wants horse for all-around pur-
poses.
In the north, the heavy breeds, such
as the Percherons, Clydes and Shires
are most generally used.
The wise farmer will raise the type
Of horse best adapted to his needs.
Generally speaking, where only one
team can be kept on the farm, the
horses should be sizeable enough to
pull plow or draw a heavy wagon
load with comparative ease, and at
the same time light enough to get
along over the road with surrey or
light rig at a fairly good gait.
II farmer keeps q number Of
horses he will, Of course, use the
heavy type for blowing and other
heavy farm work, and keep light
harness team for the road.
1t is great mistake to attempt to
pillow with team Of horses of the
harness type. Farmers are blowing
deeply these days, and 1t Is distressing
to see a light team struggling with a
heavy pillow.
The general tendency, therefore, is,
when light team is used, to allow
the pillow to skim the ground In order
to ease up on the team. II a team
Of sturdy draft horses, weighing 1900
to $500 each is used, they walk along
with pillow, running from six to eight
inches deep, without the slightest dis
tress.

Mr.. Cooper will make a formal an

A number of Mr.. Cooper's friends
have asked him to enter the race and
have brought such pressure to bear
upon him that it is believed he cannot
well refuse the acceptance Of their
support.

Two monster houses greeted the
new bill at the Orpheum last night.
The headliners were Ed, Flanagan and
Nicely Edwards, in a ~bIackface skit
On and Off. In the first part of the
act they do some eccentric singing and
dancing, and the last view shows them
In The dressing room removing their
make-ups and quarreling. This act
is decidedly new in every particular,
and gives the audience a good idea Of
how an average minstrel show performs
behind the scene. The two men are
both excellent characters, and the skit
In Itself is worth the price of the adj
mission for the entire show.
The Apollo Trio Gymnasts is the
newest stunt seen here in this line.
The three men who take part are

be considered impossible by an ordi-
