Sentiment ami me Farm.

In commenting on the work of
James Whitcomb Riley. the st, Paul
Pioneer Press remarks that the sim
Pile rural life, OF which Mr.. Riley
wrote, has almost entirely passed. BY
this it means the sentimental, pic
turesque phases-tIre nOmely attrac-
lions that have been sounded so Of
ten in prose and verse--~rple gather
ings, the domestic experiences that
make happy memories All farming
now is for proht, it declares. Every
thing in labor-sayIng machinery is
provided, but no home.
This is rather pessimistic in the
opinion of the Indianapolis Star, 1t is
true that modern farms with their
trim wire FENCES, their welI-kept
fields, their evidences of prosperity,
have lost much Of their old time pic
turesqueness. The old rail fence
which harbored Wonderful growth
of shrubs and weeds had a beauty
which its modern successor does not
possess. The old orchards, untrim-
med and gnarly, had charms which
the new ones wholly lack, the ragged
fringes Of trees along the little
streams which sheltered the boy
when he went fishing or hunted tn
swimmn hole, have been cut away
and the streams have been trans
formed into bitches The shabby lit
tie farmhouses have given away TO
imposing mansions.
All thes things have come to pass,
and more, but though the farmer and
his family travel about in a motor
car, though their home has running
water and bathrooms and other mod
ern conyeniences, It does not there
fore follow that sentiment and the
charm of rural life have vanished

Four Years Oio.--AI FOUR years. the
intermediate pair of permanent incis-
ors are up and ready for use. The
cups in the center pair are now about
one-third worn down.
Five Years Old.-The five-year-old
horse should have all his permanent
incisors. BY this time the cups of the
intermediate incisors are worn down
about one-third. and the center ones
have become rounder on the inside
and show wear. The cups are about
two-thirds worn down.
Six Years old.-At six years the cor.
ner incisors show years wear on the
cups. the intermediate cups are re-
duced to one-third and the cups in the
center incisors on the lower jaw have
practically disappeared.
Seven Years Old.-By this time the
cups in the corner incisors are badly
worn and nearly disappeared in the in
termediate inaisors. Where the uppe:

thicker in shape. also meeting at a
sharp angle.
Eight Years Old.-At this time the
cups in the upper Jaw incisors show
wear and the cups in the lower cor
ner incisors are about worn down.
Nine Years Old.-Because OF the
fact that cups in the upper incisors do
not disappear at such regular inter.
walls as in the lower teeth, 1t is not
so easy to determine age accurately
at this time. Usually. however. the
cups in the upper center incisors have
worn off by this time.
Ten Years Old.-The teeth are more
triangular in shape and the cups are
still found in the upper as well as the
lower incisors. 1t is not unusual To
find cups in the upper teeth for two
or three years yet. At this age, how
ever, the cups usually have disap
peared
Twelve Years or More.-With I'm
creasing age, the incisors of upper and
lower jaw become more triangular and

What is the age of your horse? Mos,
any experienced horseman will answer
the question almost as accurately as
though he hao raised the horse him
self, II he can get at the animals

Pacific Rural Press. The practice is
as old as the hills. yet many a horse
owner doesn't know the principles for
determining ages in this manner, and
a horses age is of great Importance in
determining values
The incisor teeth of the mature
horse, Of which there are six on each
jaw, are most commonly used for
judging. The first pair of incisors
