REMARKABLE CAREER

Berlin, Nov. l5.-(By mail to New
York. III have had an insight into
some of the affairs which have caused
the greatest interest and excitement
in the German war office.
Just as this war in itself outdoeS
fiction so some a. tine scenes that have
occurred in the war offices have outrn
imagination. Tnerc have been mo-
menis so exciting that even the staidest
generals have cheercd aloud in their
offices.
An instance Of this war was the oc.
of anger against him. lIindenberg
whose name has since become world
famus, was restored to the army. Per
haps il is not generally known that
llindenberg and the Kaiser were person
al enemies. II is the truth, however
The kaiser himself put Hindenberg on
the pension list six years ago in u fit
of anger against himself Hindenberg
was heartbroken; at " years his career
seemed smashed.
When the war broke out the kaiser
ordered lists should be prepared nclud
ing the name OF every general who
might help Germany. IIindenberg :
name was not put on the list. The
kaiser noticed the omission.
Where's IIindenbergl' he asked
"Gelmany needs him,

was considered almost "queer" in re.

crushing a Russian force in eastern
Prussia,
He had figured when he was a young
officer that, if Germany and Russia
ever fought each other and that, if Rus.

Of eastern Prussia, and that, if ON their
march they got near Konigsberg or
Tamenberg, and that if he were in

-
Well, the main question is. what
sort of horses do you want to raise?
In the first place the difference In the
cost of raising a scrub and a properly
bred horse is nothing like as great as
the price that you viii get when the
colts arrive at maturity and the diff
ference will all be in favor of the we'll
bred one-certainly in nine cases out
of ten.
The buyers In the big cities want
horses that are bred on certain lines
The drafts must have weight and bone;
the roadsters speed; the saddle horse
gaits and carriage and so on, each &C
cording to his kind.
Now, brother farmer, read the mar
ket reports In your farm and daily
the classification and prices of horses
when they are sold for the high
dollar" and then note the prices paid
for chunks, which are generally nom

Whatever you do, beware of the I'M

though you may be told by the owner
or groom that such troubles as lust

Just little narrow about the heels"
or lust little enlargement about the
knees" but sound as a dollar" and
numbers of other trifies, so called, you
will find that In the course of years of
breeding horses that unsoundness in
limbs or feet shows a manifest weak

Big Sale of Revenue Stamps.

With sales OF whisky stamps totaling
more than $S5, 900, the top mark in the
rushing business which has been done
by the Louisville revenue Office, was
reached Tuesday last. For the rast ten
days the sale of stamps has been more
than double the usual mark, and the ex-
PLANTATION Is offered that distillers are
laying in supply Of stamps because OF
the agitation in Congress TO increase the
tax on whisky to make up for the fall
ing off of import duties since the start Of
the European war.
According to w. P. Yancey, cashier
in the revenue Office, the situation at
present is the same as it was when the
tax was raised from 80 cents to 81. 10
and many distillers laid In supply of
stamps to be used after the advance be-
came effective. One distiller Tuesday
sent in a check for more than $50, 900
worth of stamps, the biggest sale that
has been made since Mr.. Yancey has
been cashier Almost $4,000 worth Of
the stamps sold Tuesday were disposed
of TO Louisville diStillerS.

TREATMENT OF YOUNG FOALS
Better to Leave Youngsters in Roomy,
Clean, Well Ventilated Paddock
While Dams Work.

Foals should not be allowed to fol-
low their dams when the latter have
been put to work. Besides causing
much trouble for the teamster, they
do not develop as rapidly as when
they are left in a comfortable stable
Better that they be left in a roomy,
clean. well ventilated stable or pad
dock while their dams are at work
II there be more than one they will
furnish company for one another and
can be left in the same paddock. 1t
is necessary. however, that the foals
be allowed to suckle more frequently
than the regular feeding time during
the first two months OF their life If
they are to do their best.
Besides being allowed to remain
with their dams at night and at feed
ing time. the mares should be brought
to their foals once about the middle Of
the morning and evening.
Great care should always be taken,
however, that the foals are not al
lowed to suckle while the mares are
very warm for this practise will soon
develop into digestive troubles.
