Theory and Experiment.

Theory and experiment must &c
hand in hand, and much depends or
one as much as on the other, no,
merely on its accuracy but also upon
its nature. Hundreds of experiments
may be made, which, however not
withstanding their refinement and
accuracy, contribute little to the
march of human progress in the right
direction; they may of course il
ages count for much, but the chief
thing is that the experiment should
be of the right kind, and it is often
desirable that as much time, If moi
even more time, should be spent in
deciding upon the right thing to be
done than in doing that thing itself
One bad theory is often worse thar
ten bad experiments, because even
II these are properly carried out they
may yet, If based upon false notions
add little or nothing, if not to the
store at least to the advancement of
knowledge; and count almost for as
little as the one bad experiment
whether based upon theory or not

Studying Needs of Ono Breed.

1t is poor policy for beginner to
sndeavor to keep several breeds Of
poultry. The probabilities are that he
will give them all like attention and
food when they need to be treated
according to their natural dispositions
and peculiar needs.
The results are that he will favor a
certain breed because they do better
for him, when in reality the others
would have done Just as well II they
had received the treatment which was
due them. Do not attempt too much,
but select a breed and then a variety
and stick to them.

properly upon the neck.
The shoulder of a draft horse
should be moderately sloping, smooth
and extending well back. A majority
of poorly formed draft horses have
shoulders which are too steep. Occa-
sionally the shoulders are too sloping
Either extreme in draft horse is OBJ
jectionable. Trouble with collars
comes from these causes when the
horse is doing heavy pulling. The cor
rectly laid shoulder should form a
smooth, comfortable bed for the COL
lar Straight or upright shoulders de-
tract from easy, free action of the
forelegs and generally are found asso-
ciated with upright pasterns. The
shoulders should be smoothly and
free from coarseness, roughness, sores
and tumors. The withers should be
well covered and moderately high.
The forearm, extending from the ell
bow to the knee, should be long, wide
heavily muscled and free from coarse
ness. This portion of the body of the
draft horse, together with the lower
thigh (gaskin) of the hind leg, cannot
be fattened, but is composed chiefly of
lean muscle and bone. The muscles
should be prominent in front and
above and the entire part clean and
free from pufiiness and coarseness.
The knees should be straight, wide,
deep, strongly formed and smooth.
So long as these and other joints
are free from puffs, bony growths
and meatiness, they cannot well be
too large or too strongly developed.
Knees should be straight and SO set
as to perfectly carry the weight of the
body. Sprung knees, or buck knees,
bent in the forward direction are as
Objectionable as those of the reverse
type which are known as calf
knees" Examine the knees for blem-
ishes and the cannons for splints

Humility a Character Foundation.
The parable of man with a beam
in his eye trying TO pick mote out of
his brothers eye was forcefu meth
cd whereby the Master inculcated the
necessity of humility. Humility is a
foundation virtue. The Latin word
for humility is humns. ground. This
implies that II is the soil out of which
other virtues are produced. Those
who think they know everything can
learn nothing. How beautiful it is to
realize that Jesus was humble and
that all the holy angels are so!
Grapes Off erambIe Bush.
While the Scriptures forbid God S
people to judge one another, they do
commend to us another kind of judg-
ing. While not condemning the heart
We are to judge of the outward con
duct. The parable which our Lord in
this lesson gives respecting the gath
ering of grapes from bramble bushes
illustrates this point Gods people are
likened to the grapevine. which pro-
duces no thorns but luscious clusters
of fruit. Mankind in general are lik-
ened to bramble bushes, ready to in
jure, on the slightest provocation. and
are merely self-sustaining. We are to
distinguish between such characters
and Gods people: BY their fruits
shall We know them
1t is said that at times bramble
bush is entirely covered by vine so
that the grapes appear to be coming
from the bush. However. we are not
to be mistaken. A good tree cannot
bring forth evil fruitage. neither can
an injurious tree bring forth good
fruitage. The lesson is that those who
are really Gods people must be fruit
bearing else they are none of His.
