THE HORSE IN SUMNER
Hot Weather "DOn'ts'' From That
Faithful Servants Point of View
(From Our Dumb Anibals.)

|
If a horse could talk he would have
many things to say when summer
comes.
He could tell the driver that he feels
the heat on a very warm day quite DIS
much as if he could read a thermom-
eter
He would say, "Give me little wa
ter many times q day, when the heat
is intense, but not much at time ii
am warm; if you want me to keep
we'll don't give me any grain whel
you bring me warm into the stable,
just a half dozen swallows of wate~,
and some hay to eat until l am cool
Don't water me too often after !
have eaten my grain, wait an hour.
Especially do ! need watering be-
tween 9 and 10 at night. l am thirsttr
then than at almost any other time of
day.
He would say, when the sun is hot
and l am working let me breathe once
in a while in the shade of some house
or tree; if you have to leave me on
the street leave me in the shade if
possible Anything upon my head, be-
tween my ears to keep off the sun, is
bad for me if the air cannot circulate
freely under it, unless it is a sponge
kept cool and wet. If you do not clip
off my foretop and treat me as you
would yourself you need not have
much fear of losing me by sun
stroke.
"If on an extremely warm day
give evidence by painting and signs OF
exhaustion that 1 am being overcome
with the heat, unharness me, take me
into the shade and apply cold water
or even broken ice, wrapped up in a
cloth or put in a bag, to my head,
sponge out my mouth and go over nv
legs with a cool, wet sponge"
He would talk of slippery streets
and the sensation of falling on cruel
city cobblestones-the pressure of the
load pushing him to the fall, the
bruised knees and wrenched joints
and the feel of the drivers lash.
He would tell of the luxury of fly
net when at work and of fly blanket
when standing still in fly season, and
of the boon to him of screens in the
stable to keep out the insects that bite
and sting.
Re would plead for as cool an
comfortable a stable as possible ir
which to rest at night after a days
work under the hot sun.
He would suggest that Twins
through a warm night in a narrow
stall neither properly cleaned MOI
bedded is suffering for him and poor
economy for the owner.
He would say that turning the host
on him is altogether too risky thin2
to do unless you are looking for sicl
horse. Spraying the legs and fee
when he is not too warm on hot da7
he would find agreeable.
He would say, please sponge out
my eyes and nose and dock when
come in tired and dusty at night, an
also sponge me with clean, cool water
under the collar and saddle of tho
harness"

VICTORY FOR THE
KENDR|CK GIRLS

Last Saturday evening the Julia
eta girls and boys basket ball teams
played game with the local high
school teams. The girls game
resulted in victory for the Kendrick
girls with score of 7 to ID and the
boys game resulted in victory for
the visiting team with score of 10
to 10. The girls and boys both
Apwed up good work for the time
0aeSl have been practicing for the
game. But the worst feature of the
whole thing was when the visiting
Professor Graham made his little
talk at the opening of the contest
that he wanted fair play and quiet
game with no rough work on the
part of the players and he had also
in letters to Professor Jordan
requesting that the Kendrick teams
be instructed to not play rough,
permitted his players to turn square
around and make a rough and
tumble game with any thing but
fair play. He. in the first place,
does not know enough about the
game to tell whether they were
playing basket ball or running a
potato race, he gave unfair decisions
and when called and shown by the
rules that he was wrong would not
be governed by them. He also
made it point to have the captain
of the local team forced off the
floor, and the superintendent of the
local school was easy enough to
do what the outsider wanted done
that his team might win.
Professor Jordan has done some
excellent work coaching the young
people of the school in athletics,
and is to be complimented on the
manner in which he is doing. If he
only had more assistance from the
proper ones in the school he could
accomplish a great deal more.

THANKSGIVING NOV. q

Dating back practically to the
settlement of this continent, the
custom has prevailed of setting
aside one day in each year as a day
of thanksgiving to Almighty God for
his manifold blessings to our people.
This praiseworthy custom should
ever be perpetuated. Each year
brings its own blessings and rewards,
and grateful and devout people
should ever be willing to voice their
obligations to Divine Providence for
His sheltertng protection ano
abundant moral and material gifts
vouchsafed to them.
But in addition to thanking God
for our great material progress and
for the blessing of forest, field and
mine, we should seek divine guidance
in the proper use of that which
comes into our hands.
We should pray to be delivered
from that spirit of extravaganza
which affects not only our individual
but also our collective actions, and
which yearly adds to the cost of
living. In its place we should seek
to have inculcated that spirit of thrift
which characterized our forebearers,
and upon which the permanent
prosperity of the individual and of
the State will ever rest.
In obediance to this long-establish-
ed custom, I, John M. Haines,
Governor of the State of Idaho, do
join with the President of the
United States in designating Thurs
day, November 81, 1913, as a day
of public thanksgiving for the people
of this State. I ask that all business
cares be laid aside and that the day
be observed in ali our churches and
homes as day of thanksgiving and
prayer.
In testimony whereof, I have
hereunto set my haud and caused
the great seal of the State to be
affixed, at Boise, Idaho, this fifth
day of November, in the year of our
Lord one thousand nine hundred
and thirteen.
John. M. Haines,
Governor.
