It should be possible that there is no strawberry patch on your farm this year that is no reason why there should not be good one another year. The plants may be set most any time after July, the time of setting not be- ing as important as the condition of the land in which they are set. Deep, well drained, and very fertile, is as good way as I can express what is required in the soil of a strawberry patch that is expected to furnish large, luscious berries. The Progress i've Farmer.

4 SQUARE DEAL FOR THE HORSE

A square deal for the horse is the petition which the Western Pennsylvania Humane society has put into a fervent equine prayer, and has:posted in stables all over the city of Pittsburg. It reads in part as follows: ''To thee. my master, 1 offer my prayer.
 Feed me. water and care for me. and when the days work is done, provide me with shelter, a clean dry bed, and a stall wide enough for me to lie down in comfort. Talk to me. Your voice means as much to me as the reins. Pet me sometimes, that 1 may serve you the more gladly and learn to love you.
 Do not jerk the reins, and do not whip me when going up hill.
 Never strike, beat or kick me when 1 do not understand what you want, but give me chance to understand you. Watch me and if l fail to do your bidding, see if something is not wrong with my harness or feet. Exa- mine my teeth when 1 do no eat.
 l may have an Liberated tooth, and that. you know, is very pain full. Do not tie my head in an unnatural position, or take away my best defense against flies and mosquitoes by cutting off my tail.
 And finally, oh my master, when my useful strength is gone do not turn me out to starve or freeze or sell me to some cruel owner, to be slowly tortured and starved to death; but do thou, my master, take my life in the kindest way and your God will reward you here and hereafter"

SCHOOL MANAGEMENT

The most powerful agency in school management is kindness.
 There is no force on earth so potent as love. When it has possession of the human heart it is all pervading and over towering. and especially if brought to bear upon sympath- etic childhood and youth. The teacher must rule by kindness have a uniformity of good will earnest sympathy, and hearty generosity habitually exercised to- ward his pupils. The teacher alone who loves his pupils has power to gain their love and confidence, which should be their chief reliance in school management. An atfectionate pupil will confde in a teachers judgment, respect his authority and fear his displeasure. If you show him by your personal at tention and kindness that you are his true friend, and that all you efforts are designed to secure his best good, and make him be- lieve it, you hold him as by the power of enchantment, having no need of physical force to keep him in subjection. He is held by another and higher law which induces him to gratify your wishes and seek the best good of the school. But this kindness, which is an essential element in every true system of government, is not, and cannot be, a substitute for authority or an obstacle to severity, when the good of the idividuaI or school demands it. The teacher must cherish an abiding love in the infliction of necessary pun ishment in the management of pnblic affairs,

JUDGE GUNTER, GOVERNOR

Judge Gunter is the next governor
of Colorado He will be governor of
all the people of this state and he
should have the support of everyone
regardless of politics. Every COVER
nor should have the support of all
but there are times when he does
not have the support even of his own
party. That has been true in Colo
RADIO, and not so very long ago, but
it is hoped that it will never be true
again.
Judge Gunter is a most capable
man. He is refined man, of strong
moral character, student and man
well versed in state affairs. He pos
sesses the qualifications. If he ad-
ministers the affairs of this state in
the proper manner the people should
be with him.

PEOPLE DO SCRATCH

Prowers county people also know
how to scratch their ballots. They
elected most of the Republicans with
good majorities and gave the Demo-
cratic candidate for treasurer ma
jority of 1140 over his Republican
opponent. That "headless ballot
evidently works as it was intended.
Such thing as hide-bound Re
publican or a hide-bound democrat is
hard to find nowadays. The indie
pendent voter used to rule and they
rule yet. All the difference there is
now is that the ruling class has grown
in numbers.

Aside from our own immediate

judging from the reports that were
coming in, that about all the Repub-
licans there were elected in all the
land were those of Crowley county,
but from among the drifts have been
emerging quite a number of others.
among them is Jucge Allen, Republi
can, elected to the supreme court. and
many county officials all over the
state. In Pueblo county the officers
were e'about equally divided In Bent
county is was almost the same. In
Otero county it was not so evenly dis
tributed, for there, only one Republi-
can survived to pull himself from the
