Usually, the ram which heads the

lie care from the time he 10 turned
out to pasture in the spring until the
advent of the breeding season In the
fall. Then. about the only thing which
is done is to turn him in with the ewes
and allow mating to occur at random.
Perhaps this Is the sort Of care and
management which results in many
barren ewes and weak lambs.
The mating season Is naturally one
of severe strain on the ram and he
should be given every possible oppor-
tunity to keep strong and healthy.
This means that he ought to have the
proper kind of care. even before the
breeding season begins. OF course.
II the pasture Is plentiful. there 10 not
any need of feeding anything else
during the early part of the grazing
season. However. as the hot weather
comes and the grass becomes less
abundant and less succulent. 1t may
be advisable to feed other roughage
or perhaps little grain.
Especially during the month Just
preceding the mating season should
the ram get the best of feed and care.

Self-control is the quality most needed
in human nature today, and the one
most rarely found.
Just if the degree that human being
develops the power of self-control he APP
proaohes divine power
Just in the degree that a human being
is self-indulgent. so he wanders away
from the divinity which is within him
self and from every high attainment that
is worth while.
Self-control means the conserv alton of
all the powers of mind brain and body,
and the ability to use those powers sue
cessfully for any high purpose.
Self-indulgence means the scattering Of
all these forces ar their ultimate de-
struction.
Self-control should be taught first In
the cradle and in the nursery. Instead.
parents, nurses, governesses and teachers
usually find 1t less taxing to encourage
their charges in self-indulgence than to
teach them self-control. The chpd who
screams for his bonbons or his toys can
be taught self-controI by being left alone
until he wears out his mood. and later
can be reasoned with and made to un-
derstand the benefit which will result
from self-controL But such guidance and
teaching are taxing to the elders, and
therefore majority of children grow TO
adolescence and maturity without having
been so taught.

and who has made any study Of human
nature must wonder that so many de-
cent human beings exist in the world
with so little assistance and guidance. in
the direction of self-control during early
youth.
The control of the appetite in child
hood and early youth is the tirst step
toward self-control the control OF the
mind in the habit of study is the next
step TO thoroughly master one lesson be-
fore another Is began, no matter how
long the time given to the attainment
OF this end is OF the utmost importance
in the shaping of a child's character.
But how many par ents and how many

Our schools destroy the powers OF
concentration and lead away from self

woman admires In a man and calls man
illness is courage. Courage of mind
courage of body courage of soul. A
sight to which every woman responds
is that of the man who is unafraid.
He must have courage of mind. He
must have the willingness and the power
to attack the world and wrest from It
those things which he wants. Women have
falsely been classed as mercenaries be-
cause they are won by successful men.
1t is unjust to women TO say that the
dazzle of gold in their eyes blinds them
to everything else What women care

OF present day conditions. They are
voiced by the might of the man against
his adversaries, the conditions which en-
compass him. Often when a woman is
being criticised for marrying a man for
his money, she is loving him for the
strength that is in him that has com
manded that money.
Weak women suspect that the business
world is a grim battle ground. Strong
women know il. The woman i'm the home

woman admires him yet more, for IL is
with deeper knowledge Of the fierceness
of the combat. The courage OF mind TO
attack and the force of will that keeps
a man fighting for what he believes to
be his own are winning elements with all
women.
Courage OF body is to woman always
admirable A man won a girls heart by
coolly opening a suspected bundle that

looked as though il contained

heart by the panicky manner in which
he received the news that the sky
scraper in which his office was sit
uated, as one of the cells In a honey
comb, was burning. That man should
realize the danger and make hasty plans
for escape is natural. That he should
turn craven and hang out the distress
signal of the white feather, is quite an
other matter. Every summer supplies
