HOW TO MAXI HORSES
ACQUAINTED WITH AUTOS

David Buffum, an expert on horses,
writes, as follows, in the current is
sue of Farm and Fireside about teach
ing horses to have no fear Of auto
mobiles:
IF one lives near road where
automobiles are constantly passing.
the best thing to do is to tie such a
horse securely to the roadside fence #
it is high enough to prevent him from
jumping over it and strong enough to
prevent him from breaking it. The
halter, rope and the post to which he
is tied must also be strong. After
standing there for several days he will
be thoroughly accustomed to the
passing of automobiles. If they pass
with sufficient frequency he will be
so used to them that he will eat his
grain and scarcely notice them as they

FARM FACTS.

(By Peter Radford, Texas Farmers
Union)
Make it a point to learn something
new every day.
Better production waits on system
Of better marketing.
Successful farming is more depend
ent on brain than Drawn.
No man should be content to let his
farm grow meaner while he grows
better.
The farm should not only produce
the best pumpkins and hogs, but the
best people.
The farmer who fails to profit by
his mistakes loses one of the best
lessons taught by experience.
The man who studies the work in
which he is most interested is the
man who actually gets the most out
