HOT WEATHER RULES
Contributed by the Boston Work
Horse Relief association.)

1. Load lightly, and drive slowly.
Stop in the shade if poss Bile.
8. Water your horse as often as
possible So long as horse is work
ing. water in small quantities will
not hurt Lin. But let him drink only
a few swallows If he is going to stand
still. Do not fail to water him at
night after he has eaten his hay,
q When he comes in after work,
sponge off the harness marks and
sweat, his eyes, his nose and mouth
and the dock. Wash his feet but not
his legs.
S. If the thermometer is 75 de-
gress or higher, wipe hiE all over
with damp sponge. Use vinegar
water if possible. Do not turn the
hose on him.
6. Saturday night, give bran
mash, luke warm; and add a table
spoonful of saltpetre.
Z. Do not use horse-hat, un-
less it is a canopy-top hat. The or
binary bell-shaped hat does more
harm than good.
s. A sponge on top of the head,
or even cloth, is good if kept wet.
If dry 1t is worse than nothing.
8. If the horse is overcome by
heat, get him into the shade, remove
harness and bride, wash out his
mouth, sponge him all over, shower
his legs, and give him two ounces of
aromatic spirits of ammonia, or two
ounces of sweet spirits of nitre, in a
pint of water; or give him a pint of
coffee warm. Cool his head at once,
using cold water, or, if necessary,
chopped ice, wrapped in cloth.
10. II the horse is off his feed.
try him with two quarts of oats mix
ed with bran, and little water;
and add little salt or sugar. Or
give him oatmeal cruel or barley
water to drink.
II. Watch your horse. If he
stops sweating suddenly, or if he
breathes short and quick, or if his
ears droop, or If he stands with his
legs braced sideways, he is in danger
OF heat or sun stroke and needs
attention at once.
IL. If it is SO hot that the horse
sweats in the stable at night, tie him
outside, with bedding under him.
Unless he cools off during the night,
he cannot well stand the next days

wears. and is now one OF the promln-

cause OF his sympathy with the FRO

strife OF the last campaign ne won
the respect and confidence Of large
numbers of his countrynen.
Senator Borah is a favorite after

his being witty or a spellbinder, put

logic he brings to bear upon every
subject upon which he speaks. he
is such an industrious student OF his

eminently educational and he is in

but rather is modestly seeking to
keep out Of the race, adds to his pop

LITTLE ESSENTIALS
FOR THE DAIRYMAN
Many Cows Being Deceived by
Man-CardinaI Factors in
Dairy Cleanliness.
(By I. M. BENNINGToN.)

(By L. M. BENNlNGION.)
Lucky is the man who leads In
quality.
The important part of milking is to
get 1t all.
The man and the cow are the twins
Of the dairy business.
There are as many cows being de
ceived by men as there are men being
deceived by cows.
There Is some affinity between
good dairyman and a good cow:
BY cooperation with the dairy cows
men can achieve wonderful results on
the farm.
More fresh air and less ''hot air" are
needed in the dairy business.
Every SILVER Of the cow shakes dol
lars out of her owners pockets.
There is good money In raising good
cows to SELL
Put every acre Of land to work. Idle
acres like dry cows, eat up the profits
Common sense, favored with love
for the COW, will insure success in the
dairy business.
Sunlight, fresh air and hot water
are cardinal factors in cleanliness.
Close cropping OF pastures is very
improbable.
A good dairy COW must be intelli.
gent, courageous and gentle.
Great lung capacity is essential to
high production.
A box stall should be part of the
furniture Of every well-regulated COW
stable.
Every dollar, every effort, spent In
soil improvement will bring large and
compromising interest.
The easiest way to prevent disease
is to remove the cause.
For the lands sake, and the i'm
provement of the ration. grow plenty
Of clover and alfalfa.

Diamond Oldest Of Riches.

The discoverer of diamonds is un.
known. From references in Exodus it
is apparent that the diamond was a
precious stone in Egypt in those early
times; and even before that it was
known in India, where probably 1t was
first obtained. The name Is derived
from the Greek word "adamas," mean
ing "unsubduable."
From Pliny, a writer of the first CEN
fury, we learn that the diamond was
regarded as the most valuable Of all
things, and only few kings ever
could afford to buy them. But as no
means of artificial polishing had been
discovered the stone deprecated in

Training Young Horses.

When training young horses, 1t is
important to teach them one thing at
a time and teach that thoroughly be-

AS Christmas is drawing near |

III such way. Men, if the. Lord has
given you money, don't spend it for
that which will bring sorrow in your
home and sink your own soul into
eternal misery. Bring your poor
wife and children something to
make them happy.
More than nineteen hundred years
ago Jesus came into the world to
bring peace and Joy to all, and yet
there are homes all over our country
where peace is not known. Our
country pretends to be dry, and our
dODots are bar-rooms. | don't be-
lieve any man that will not do all in
his power, any way he can, to put
alcohol out Of the land in which he
lives will ever enter the kingdom of
Cod care not how good he may
profess to be. We cannot fool God
Men who know God as their Saviour
will not drink whiskey, and men who
are worthy to be called men will
vote against it.
My Christian friends, we must love
each other more. We must pray
for our lost brothers here as well as
over the sea. There are men all
around us who seldom hear the Cos
pei but they are robbing God Of
their service. robbing their loved
ones of the joys of this life and US
ing the money they might use for
the glory of God to damn their own
souls. And oh, how sad to think
that many Of them have their names
on our church books. God pity such
men and women.
