Some horses are great sufferers from

cases the horse should be shod fire.,

In many sections of the sheep grow

not thought of much value for other
animals. Consequently the sheep are
kept on this one pasture continually.

But my experience has been that
sheep do better when they have a

of every farmer to get the best posi-

his interest to give them chnnge.
There Is no animal on the farm that
will give greater profits for amount in

l am sure 1t Is best to have several pas

to run at intervals.
The sheep may nip the pasture a lit

pasture all the while. Remove the
sheep to another field, and In few

THE MACKhY STATUE.

OF all the statues have seen In this
country two have always gripped ME
the statue Of Abraham Lincoln In Lin
coin park, Chicago, and that of the
elder Mackay at the University of Ne
vada.
Almost every one has seen the Lin
coin statue or picture of it. 1t strikes
you as being replica Of the real Lin
coin.
The other was erected by Clarence
FL. Mackay as tribute to his father.
the founder of the Nackay fortune.
There it stands, the semb!ance Of
young man of sturdy bearing He
wears a flannel shirt. which is open at
the neck. Corduroy trousers are stuff
ed into cowhide boots. On the head Is
slouch hat. A miners pick is clinch-
ed in the right hand.
That is the real Mackay.
Afterward he became a millionaire.
and the statue would have shown
smooth groomed. conventional figure in
frock coat and high hat.
But Mackay was a man before he
was q millionaire.
And the rugged figure of the miner
stands an abiding index Of the dignity
of labor.
The mudsills Of our republic were
laid by men Of toll. They laboriousIy
blazed the way to our present day
prosperity. And Of these heroes Of the
early faith was the bronzed miner,
who. like Moses, struck the finty rock
and forced the flow Of golden waters.
We must honor these men.
Let us have Il care lest in our day Of
prosperous pride we shall come to look
with condescension upon the man who
earns his bread Ivy the sweat of his
brow and the labor Of his hands.
Therefore the value Of reminders like
this statue of the man of, the pick and
the slulcing cradle. 49,.
We must impress the truth that the
man upon whose garments there Is the
stain Of the soil. caught in honest ef-
fort of daily toll. wears uniform as
patriotic as the. uniform Of the har-
messed soldier; that the scars upon the
hands Of labor are as honorable us the
sears received in battle.
Hence the Significance Of the Lin
coin and the Mackay statues. They
are statues Of men. not as they were

A PREACHER PESSIMIsT.

Rev. r. j. Campbell. n London
preacher, thinks the world is growing
no better
He says there is no reason for human
existence, and all the ages of progress
have cost more than they have come
to-
He says we are no better off than
Egypt and Rome because we have the
same battles to fight between right
and wrong, the same struggles to en-
dufe against the spirit of creed and
selfshness. ..
Cheer up. Mr.. Campbell. ..
What hope of the race can there be
save In these very struggles?
Cannot be see on every page of his
tory, especially during the past 100
years. the tremendous strides made in
humanitarian progress?
Has not slavery almost disappeared
from the face Of the earth?
Can he not see on every hand the
rising walls Of asylums and homes for
the friendless and children and the
aged. hospitals of every sort. free elm
ics, Juvenile courts? Cannot he see
what science is doing for husbandry
and the notwithstanding the loves
Of humans and giving every man a
higher standard of living and a better
chance?
Cannot he see the disappearance of
landlordism and the old age pensions
and the compulsory insurance Of en-
ployees in Europe? Or the enforce
ment of employers liability and child
labor laws in America?
Can he not see the new spirit of
Asia. awakening and rubbing its eyes
to its. opportunities? Think of 1t! Chi
ma with constitutional government;
Turkey tolerant.
Can he not see that the spirit of the
Christ is permeating the earth as a
leaven? Should a minister Of the mas
ter decry his own gospel and its power
TO accomplish?
True, the poor we have always with
u.s. And oppression and tyranny and
injustice. But
The facts are known and understood
and to know and understand is to ar
que speedy cure.
True, men still toll in dark tunnels
underground and children are made
old by long hours and a pitiful wage.
And true that trust manipulators still
spin their webs like great spiders and
levy toll upon the people. And corrupt
jurists twist the laws Of the land.
Yes. but
Note what has already been accom-
plished. And humanity is yet only
half awake.
Why. Mr. Preacher, your Christ has
never had Il fair chance at this cruel
world And never fear; his spirit is
marching on.
