your horses when you come In from
the field at night--that is. water and

them to the barn and feed the same as

eat but little hay. by the time you
are ready for the field the horses will
be in good shape.
We have used this method in caring
for farm horses and find that II saves
both feed and labor. 1t does not take
80 long to clean the horses In the
morning. as they will have done this

WAS EQUAL TO THE OCCASION.
Section Boss Succeeded In splking
Superior's Spike Yarn.


One OF the first orders issued by
II. S. Calvin when he assumed the
reins as general manager of the Ore
gon Short Line was that economy
must be practiced in all departments.
For several years the bill for spikes
on the Oregon Short Line has been
about the same, and one of the mat
tiers to which he had reference was
the use of spikes by section men.
Mr. Calvin determined to cut down
the spike bill on the Oregon Short
Line.
When the section men received the
order there was much comment among
the paddles" as to whether the cost
of spikes had not been kept as low
as possible. About two weeks after
the order was promulgated Mr.. Cal
win went to Montpelier, Ida, and
while walking around the yards
found a new spike loose between the
rails. Aiming to have some fun at
the expense OF the Irish section boss
he said:
Pat, / found this spike lying in the
yards. 1t is a new spike. too

SECRET OF THE FLASHLIGHT

A pocket electric fashlight is the
handiesI little device ever perfected
for use about the home during the
night. 1t saves all the labor of strik-
ing matches, of lighting lanterns and
the carrying of lights when you want
TO look into dark places. And, often
for use where a lantern would be no
service whatever and matches or open
flames would be dangerous. When it
becomes necessary to investigate the
interior of an automobile while touring
in the night, when you want to look
into dark partitions, shadowy hooks,
into dusty and infammable places, the
nashlight is handy and safe.
There is no mystery about the handy
little f1ashlight, in spite of the fact
that it can be carried around for
weeks and weeks and yet is ever ready
10 give a beam of brilliant light on de-
mand whenever the tiny switch is
manipulated. This beam of light can
be thrown into the most impossible
places, from almost any position. The
fashlight is an electric light. 1t diff.
fers in no way from the other electric
lights in your home, except that it is
smaller. The tiny miniature Mazda
lamp on the end of the fashlight is a
perfect little lamp consisting of a fine
flament of tungsten wire encased in a
glass vacuum bulb no larger than the
end of your finger. Tiny wires lead

for ap%prehending and identifying Grim

Not the least interesting to Tarzan
