OF course we love our own best. and
then why should we not show il? Why
be afable and courteous to everyone
except those to whom we owe the most?
1t is very often owing to the thought
lessness and carelessness, but that makes
it none the less criminal. Bickerine and
strife which goes on in many households
is dlsgraceful aside from the inevitable
unhappiness that it causes. There are
many ladies and gentleman outwardly
polished and agreeable the favorites Of
society and the life of all social gather
ings, which they attend, and who
indulge in manners that would disgrace
savage at tbcir homes. They seem
perfectly transformed. Company man
ners are at least but very thin veneer,
and the true nature is apt to come to the
surface and the keen observer soon de-
teCts the sham.
The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1912-05-24

Nothing ismore charming to see than
a young girl simple. natural, gentle,
refined and polished in mind and man
ner. Children should be early taught
pollteness; not politeness and manners
to put on the best dress. True polite
ness is that which springs from a nice
mind and kind heart, which refuses to
wound Others by acts of discourtesy.
True politenesS is rare and more valu-
able, perhaps, than is often imagined.

The Empty Silo.

This is a good time to devote an
hour or two to the Tightening up Of silo
hoops and making taut the anchor
ings, says the Kansas Farmer. The
probabilities are that most Of the ST.
lage is fed out and the silo will stand
empty until time to refill. The winds
and sun will dry out the slaves, and
unless the hoops are kept tight and the
anchorings are secured therr is dan
ger from wind. If the slaves are pull
ed well together the danger Of dam
age to the silo from blowing down or
rocking in the wind is very slight. We
know Of silos which have stood twenty
years, which have been blown down,
but it has required some care and fore.
sight in keeping them erect. 1t does
not pay to spend good money for any
thing and then neglect it. The old
adage, "a stitch in time saves nine, "
works we'll in practically every farm
operation.

Pure Breds Versus Scrubs.

The pure bred animal is not one that
will make good on poor feed and care.
The scrub will beat the pure bred every
time when it comes to "rustling" its
own way. But the scrub will not and
cannot make money for its owner. And
right here is where the pure bred ex-
ceeds- He has capacity which the
scrub has not. Give the pure bred ami
NAL good feed and care and he will
make money and do 1t quickly. At
least three crops Of pure bred beef ami
mails can be turned out ready for mar
ket to every two crops Of scrubs or
grades. Grades make money for their
owners sometimes, but the amount
and the quickness with which results
are obtained are In direct proportion to
the infusion Of pure blood, which makes
them grades and better than scrubs.

SELECTING THE BOAR.
Success In Hog Raising Depends
Largely on the Sire.

Success In Hog Raising Depends
Largely on the Sire.
Careful consideration must be eXer-
cised when selecting a boar for a herd
of sows. The future usefulness and
development of his offspring requires
thought and good judgment at the
mating period, says r. 81. Stone in Ma
tional Stockman. We cannot afford to
use a scrub or pedigreed runt under
any consideration. Remember there
are about 1000 pigs in the first ten
generations, and it is essential to de-
velop them along profitable lines. One
day spent at mating period, regardless
of distances, to find a good pure bred
boar will obviate year Of disappoint-
ment-
A litter Of eight good pigs from a
pure bred boar mated with a choice
SOW will require less feed and when
grown will produce fifty pounds of
meat per pig more than scrubby ones,
thus making 400 pounds Of additional
meat without additional expense. Our
expense shows that a sow that grows
eight pigs to maturity twice year is
a more profitable sow than one that
produces more pigs and fails to develop
them. Usually the SOW has sufficient
milk for eight, and when they are al
! lowed to suckle six to eight weeks the
pigs are in prime condition to wean
without having any setback. The sow
can generally be bred successfully on
! the third day after weaving, and it is
no trouble to have her produce two lit
] tiers per year if you give her the proper
attention. Watch her on the twenty
! first day after breeding and if neces-
sary turn her with the boar again.
The popularity of the boers ances-
tors on both the paternal and the ma
ternal side, their ability to reproduce
good specimens for generations, coup
led with good individuality of the
breed represented, make his value. He
must be a strong, vigorous fellow,
active, Of good size and good disposi-
ton. Pay a price he is worth to you,
used in your herd. Any boar is high
priced regardless Of what you pay for
him If he cannot make good on busi-
ness basis from a breeders stand
point. High priced boars with popu-
lar ancestry in the pedigl ees must
compensate their owners by producing
for them pigs superior to former gen.
erations. A boar may be sure breed
er for one person and prove a total
failure the way another man might
feed and care for him. Never allow
him to run at large with the sows.
Have an individual pen and yard for
him.
A good herdsman anticipates his
wants at least six months ahead OF
time. 1t is poor policy to defer buying
until you want boar for immediate
use and then take what you can get
When you know you must renew be
on the lookout for a few months ahead
and then you can buy one to your sat
isfaction, both as to price and indi
viduality.

they bore themselves as superbly as
the proudest of the aristocratic sons
of the desert.
In every single respect except size
they were ideal horses. Concerning
the breeding Of Justin Morgan, the
founder of the family, there has been
endless discussion, but Of this we are
certain, that the family had the prepo-
tency that only comes Of ancient and
unsullied lineage. 1t is no wonder,
then, that their blood should be found
in some of the best Of our carriage
stock today, and it is logical that we
should look to it as an important ele-
ment in breeding such stock.
1t is a pity that such a family should
not have been preserved in it's integrity
and that its blood should be so largely
lost to present day breeders. But
through the desire to breed extreme
speed the Morgans were crossed with
other families and the original type
was very largely lost. Efforts are now
being made to restore it, and if this is
successfully accomplished and by care
full selection the size increased little
(all Of which can unquestionably be
done if sufficient time is taken) the ad-
vantage to American breeders will be
very great. 1t will be quite a number
Of years, however, before all this can
be done and still longer time before
the stock will be available to breeders
as distinct breed.-From 'eThe
Horse" by David Ruffum.
