season tickets and the Ellison White
management has already included
Pendleton in its 1917 itinerary.
The ehautauqua this year was a
success in every particular. bigger
success than either Of its predecessors

More than the 500 season tickets were
sold before the first number and each
program was attended by a large au.
dience. The general concensus Of op-

YEARLING STEER TO
Be CAREFUL HOW It
BEHAVES HEREAFTER
AMMAN AND AUTO IN MIX-UP
ALONG DARK ROAD NEAR
PILOT ROCK.

sam Walker brings In from Pilot
Rock the prize automobile story of the
season. J.nks Jacques of the Rock is
the hero of il and poor, yearling
steer the yctm.
According to Walker, Jacques was
driving down a canyon road last week
late at night, and the night was a dark
one. Suddenly his lights showed a
band of cattle taking their slumber
In the middle Of the road Jacques
honked his horn and the steers and
cows lelsurely raised themselves and
meandered to one side. In doing 50
they kicked up some dust and links
could not see plainly.
Thinking all Of them had cleared
the road, he started forward, Sud
denly the front wheels struck some
thing yielding, struck the something
squarely and climbed up on it. But
the back wheels refused to climb OF
rather they never had a chance. The
something proved to be a young steer
that had not been moved by lights or
honk When the front wheels went
over the car hung upon the brute, the
rear wheels raising clear of the road
and spinning in empty air.
The weight of the car pinioned the
brute and held it helpless. The brute
held the car helpless and there they
were, the steer bawling Justify and the
car wheeling like an asthmatic, Jinks
finally realized the situation and
stopped the struggling car. He was
at a loss as to what to do until an
other machine came along and res
cued both the steer and his car.

Practical Farming VS.. Theory.

One of the astonishing things about
any situation is the personal equation,
This is perhaps more true in farming
than in any other vocation.
In general way it can be said that
the farmer who reads government
bulletins, studies soil foods, carefully
selects dairy types, feeds scientifically
and keeps a card index on his COWS
will succeed, but he won't make money
unless he has farming sense.
This may be called horse sense, COW
sense, crop sense or soil sense, but it
is really common sense, the same thing
that makes success in any business.
At recent farmers meeting. with
experts present from all directions,
farmers were told how to select dairy
cows, yet the expert admitted that
plenty of profitable mixers were not
up to form
The farmers We're told that shipping
milk is Improbable, yet thousands Of
farmers ship milk and make money
They were shown how hay robbed the
soil and how sold hay carried off ele-
ments worth more than the cash re-
ceived, yet some one must sell hay and
make money. or horses would starye.
Almost everyone admits the value of
ensilage. yet many farmers don't own
Il silo and make money Experts say
Vermonters cannot raise and feed hard
corn as cheaply as they can buy it,
yet hundreds Of farmers do so.
Potatoes, beans and well-bred stock
are theoretical moneymakers, but
many farmers cant touch them. So
with apples, alfalfa, giltedge butter
garden truck and other specalties
What some farmers can do proftably
would mean ruin when others tried it,
and so II goes.
At the meeting in question, the
writer talked with a farmer who never
owned a silo, who ships milk. sells
COWS, buys calves in the fall and never
grew ton OF alfalfa or fed any guam
tity Of 'silage corn, yet he makes his

1870 acres support 70 cows and makes
money.
The experts may say that socalled
modern methods would double his pro-
fits. but it isn't so certain. That he is
a through farmer, rotates his crops
scientifically, manures heavily and
carefully puts back in the soil what he
takes out is pretty complete answer
to the critics, which shows that il isn't
all matter of method, but question
OF efficiency,
Some Of these old-fashioned farmers,
who pursue paintbrush. quack-grass,
mustard or sage.hrush in their sleep,
whose farms are flower gardens for
cleanliness and whose bans and yards
are as neat as a model creamery, seem
to have luck enough to make up for
all modern notions, and their land is
so productive. after years OF patient
cultivation, that it defies AGRICULTURAL
rule and creed.
The fact is, of course. that farmers,
in the bulk, will do better to adopt ex-
pert methods, but nothing will take
the place of personal knowledge of the
soil and successful demonstration of
the best way to get the value out In
this respect the old-timers can give
the modern expert many points and
can often demonstrate the value of
personal methods.
In tho end, It's the man that counts
in farming and everything else,-Rut-
land Herald.
