The most successful managers of
live stock are the men who have a
natural affection for the animals. Be-
cause of this regard for the stock
they watch the animals carefully and
it follows that they are quick to note
any falling off in condition. That is
why men with a natural affection for
animals are good feeders. BY watch
ing their condition and noting the re-
suits of changes in feed the good
feeder is able to regulate the ration of
each individual animal. This natural
affection for animals leads man into
a certain respect for his charges,
The stock on the farm all possess
nervous dispositions in certain de-
grees, and the farmer who is quiet
around the barns and quiet yet firm
in all his commands, will seldom lose
Ontrol of either a nervous horse or
n angry bull.
A horse that has been given lump
f sugar by it's caretaker will seldom
prget the kindness nor lack a friend
feeling for the owner who brought
hat sugar. If on the other hand the
iorse is offered lump of sugar and
hen it is drawn back, the animal will
ecognize the deception and will al
rays be little suspicious Of the

on any animal, as success in stock
raising depends in measure on OBJ
tanning the confidence of the horses
or cattle, which must thrive and be
in the pink of condition in order to
bring in the greatest profit.
In raising both calves and colts it
is best to begin their training very
early. The calf that has been chased
around the farm by the family dog or
constantly irritated by the surly or
nervous actions of its caretaker, will
not often grow into the quiet, gentle
cow which tends to business and new
err kicks the milk pail. The young
colt that is carelessly trained will ac-
cumulate a number of tricks that can
never be entirely overcome.
Teaching the children on the farm
how to handle live stock is one OF
the best ways of assisting in bringing
I'D the stock right. It is usually the
children, assisted by the dog, that
get the most fun out of chasing the
COWS and colts or teasing the bull from
the safety of good strong fence.
Such amusement is not Intentionally
harmful to the animals, but 1t results
in bringing up horses and cattle with
bad dispositions, and these DISPOSE
tons often cost money and result In
accidents, which are not profitable for

BEST ARRANGEMENT
OF THE BEEHIvES
When Placed Too Close Together
Insects Are Killed Getting
Into Wrong Entrances.

It is strange what a difference Of
opinion there is concerning so SIM
pie matter as the arrangement of
hives. Some beekeepers place them
tot more than six inches apart. Our
,wn experience is that five feet is not
90 far.
We have repeatedly noticed that
when hives are placed so close togeth-
Or large numbers of bees are killed
when the returning swarm enters, in
considerable numbers, the neighbor-
ng hives, says a writer in Wisconsin
Agriculturist. And then, too, there
re losses of queens when fertilization
axes place. And last and most i'm
,ortant of all, If there is foul brood in
he apiary it will spread through the
.gency of the young bees, particularly
bn windy days when these youngsters,
which are always accepted, are blown
away from their own to other en-
frances.
If you must place hives so close
together, face the first south and the
next to the north. Facing to the north
will not be Injurious to the bees, as
so many imagine. In the above we
have overlooked one thing, viz, that
when hives are placed so close to-
gether, young queens, returning from
their wedding flights, get into the
wrong entrances and are killed.

TOP DRESSING FOR
TIMOTHY MEADOWS
Diluted Liquid Manure Applied
Directly After Harvest Makes
Excellent Stimulant.

The best time to top dress timothy
and mixed grass meadow is directly
after harvest. Diluted liquid manure
applied at this time is a most excel.
lent stimulant. Well-prepared com.
posts of woods earth and stable
manure, or seasoned muck-mixed
with Stacked oyster shell lime spread
quite thin, will protect the grass roots
and as soon as the manure is dissolred
by a heavy shower the growth of the
grass will be much improved. The
compost must be fine and evenly
spread. Fresh stable manure should
not be used, pile it between layers of
rich earth and by fall it will be fine
enough to spread over land for fall
seeding. Any mulch is valuable upon
the freshly mown grass, and the most
of it will be washed into the ground
after one or two settled rains.
Timothy meadows should not be
pastured, as close grazing is very in
jurious-the crowns are exposed to
the hot sun and IL the weather should
remain hot and dry for several weeks,
most of the timothy will be destroyed.
A thin coat of wellrotted manure,
say six loads per acre, put on with
the spreader, will thicken the sod, pre-
vent the growth of rank weeds and a
heavier crop of clean timothy may be
cut the following season. This is the
method followed By our leading hay
farmers. J

GOOD FARM NOTES
FOR LATE SUMMER
Go Slow in Feeding Green Fod-
der--Provide Shelter for
Sheep-Examine Bees.

Great temptation to feed green fod-
der now. Go slow and don't forget
that dew-wet and rain-soaked corn will
cause bloat.
This is hard month on the sheep,
and they should have shelter from the
sun and plenty of clean water.
Poultry is moulting these days and
that is hard on the birds. Feed no old
corn. but give them plenty Of clean
stuff. -
Il chickens are permitted to crowd
into punches in close house these
hot nights they will easily catch cold
when damp, cool day comes. Better
move the roosts out into the scratch
ing sheds.
Examine every colony of bees now
and see that each has a healthy
queen.
Get the seed of wheat ready by
running it through the tanning mill.
When yon think you have blown out
all the foul stuff and shriveled seed
run it through again.
Stop cultivation in the orchard this
month and give the sap in the trees
chance to go doNh to the roots.
Rurn the tent caterpillars.

Then, again, silence settled on the
town, to remain for five minutes un-

clay streets, now as empty az GEN.

hitched at the side of the courthouse
switched it's tail against the assaults
of the flies. Otherwise, there was no
outward sign of life. Then, Callomb's
newly organized force of ragamuffin SOL
diers clattered down the street at
double time. For moment or two
after they came into sight only the
massed uniforms caught the eyes of
the intrenched Hollmans, and an
alarmed murmur broke from the court
house. They had seen no troops de-
train, or pitch camp. These men had
sprung from the earth as startlingly as
Jason's crop of dragons teeth. But,
when the command rounded the shout

marching and the all-too-obvious bea--
ing of the mountaineer proclaimed
them native amateurs. The murmur
turned to howl Of derision and chal-
1enge. They were nothing more nor
less than Souths, masquerading in the
uniforms of soldiers.
What orders?" inquired Callomb
briefly, joining Samson the store.
Demand surrender once more-then
take the courthouse and jail was the
short reply.
Callomb himself went forward with

All day the duel between the streets
and county buildings went on with
desultory intervals Of quiet and wild
outbursts of musketry. The troops
were firing as sharpshooters, and the
courthouse. too, had it's sharpshooters.
When a head showed itself st a barri-
caded window a report from the out
side greeted it. Samson was every
where, his rifle smoking and hot-bar-

talisman. Yet most of the firing, after
the first hour, was from within. The

For a moment, she only nodded; but

she smiled, as she added: "She will

added whimsically-"will be to make

But, just before they drew up at the
house of old Spicer South. she said:

In addition to competent teachers
these schools have enlisted in their
interest advisory committees of en-

being developed by the schools. one
result of which is that employment
at profitable wages awaits the capable
students of these schools. The voca-
tional school idea is spreading and ex-
tending through the civilized world,
with the result that it brightens the
prospects of youth and heartens young
people with the knowledge that they
will enter upon their career with some
technical acquaintance with and some
manual dexterity in those lines of
work in which the world stands con-
stantly in need of workers.
