He reaches his own country, kneels
beside the brook "remorse" and drinks
Of its crystal waters. Then his eyes
are opened, his brain cleared, and he
realizes his faithlessness to his own.
Yet again he reiolces, but from q diff
ferent cause now. 1t Is because he
has discovered that hypocrisy cannot
dwell among his followers and thrive.
Then, with spirit chastencd, he rises
and goes tof meet his loyal cohorts,
whom he gathers around him in peace,
unity and prosperity. He has had a
sorry experience and been false to his
followers, but he has made amends
for It by spreading a valuable truth
that victory lies in home trade.

batteries with impunity, guarded by
influential agencies, and his offerings
are made with the gratifying assur-
ance that his impossible values will
be accepted for the truth for the time

OXFORD A GOOD BREED
FOR IMPROVING FL0CKS.
One Of the Best Farm Sheep With .
Good Reputation For Range
Purposes Also.

In "The Domestic Sheep" by Henry
Stewart, the oxford Down or Oxford
shire sheep thus is described:
1.-The sheep is double cross, being
made up of the Hampshire eve. a dis
tlnctly crossbred animal, with the
Cotswold ram. 1t is the largest of
this class of sheep, eXcelling the
Hampshire In size ut the same age. 1t
is a later sheep to bring lambs, so that
generally 1t suffers undeserved de-
traction on account of the lighter
weight of the lambs Mt exhibitions as
compared with the earlier dropped
Hampshires. The carcass weighs
twenty to twenty pounds at
year or fourteen months old
"This sheep has not so dark face
as the Hampshire, this being some
what notified nor Is the shoulder so
broad as In the Hampshire. 1t has
not the evenness of its close Compel
itor, showing less well defined type
and thus needing longer breeding with
careful selection of the rams used as
well as of the ewes. Lambs are bred
by the English farmers by crossing
these ewes with Hampshire ram for
the T rpose of darkening the face, and
the reverse cross is used when the
face is satisfactory. but the form is
not. Then Il Cotswold ram Is used.
Sometimes Shropshire ram is chosen,
and the result of this cross is a much
improved carcass, broad along the
back and with better hind quarters.
when we'll selected rams are used
this breed IL one OF the most profitable
for mutton, and as the fleece Is an OK
cclent worsted wool and weighs seven
pounds on an average it is valuable
addition to our adopted breeds. 1t is
one OF the best farm sheep, although it
/ has n good reputation for range pur-
! poses. From this it is not to lac
/ thought that 1t is the purpose Of the
! shepherd to make flock OF this breed.
| On the other hand, the rams of this
and other breeds are procured to cross
on the common native or grade sheep
and thus produce high grade whose
value is easily doubled by this use Of
good rams.
at is thus a matter for the shepherd
to select the rams he may find the
most valuable for this use. and the
oxford Down is well worthy of regard
for this purpose"

for a skilled hog raiser to secure 575

the hogs paid 9s cents a bushel for the

Proper Feed For Horse.

From fifteen to eighteen pounds Of
hay should be given horse during the
day. This is equivalent to FIVE or six
pounds per meal. But 1t is not well to
give so much at noon or morning, rs
they have not the time to eat It. and
going to work right away prevents
proper time for digestion. So our idea
would be to give three to four pounds
ut morning and dinner and the balance
at night.-Iowa Homestead.

TIMELY GARDEN HINTS.

Never save beans for seed from
rusty or diseased pods and do
not sell them for seed. This
same rule applies to some other
seeds.
Eat the string beans while they J
are crisp. Take a dish OF them
over to the neighbor who has
none.
Keep the tomato vines off the
ground. Hand pick tomato
worms. They are easily found
and killed.
The worth of good garden
shows itself when you begin to
get things out of 1t for the warm
days in August and September.
Hoe or cultivate cabbages and
other growing crops often. at
least once in ten days. and espe-
cially after rains.
