SELF-CONTROL GREAT ASSET
FoozIe in Golf Causes Grievous and
Abiding observation-disclosures
Given as Reason.

"Greater," said Solomon, sis he that
ruleth himself than he that taketh a
city,"
To foozle in golf is to encourage
giving up ones great soul. It is a
grievous and abiding wound to the
sensitive for which he invariably curses
himself roundly and takes to sack
cloth and ashes. When her lord
returns from the links his spouse
knows well by his sour detection that
he has sinned ANONYMOUSLY, he who
thought he was master of himself.
At such times he will snarl at his best
friend, even as the wrongdoer is at
war with the world. Overzealousness,
known in golf as pressing, by which
one tries to do more than one is able,
is common and fatal fault in golf,
as in all other things.

by well-ordered course of instruction
which permits not only class instruc-
ton but also allows the boys to do
their own laboratory work by keeping
q few sheep at home on their own ac-
count.
Combining a study of stock judging to
purebred animals may furnish good
foundation for the training of a show
room judge, says the writer of the pub
lication, but it does not give the train
ing needed by many farmers In the
corn belt and other territory adjacent
to the large markets where feeder
sheep are purchased and fattened. A
knowledge Of types of purebreds grown
In the community is helpful, but it Is
important for the farmer to know the
classifications and demands Of the mar
ket buyers. This knowledge can be
given to the pupils only by studying
market classes and grades. In each
community instruction which will be
helpful in meeting the practical prob
lens common to the particular form
of the industry practiced in the COM
munity should be given. In connec-
ton with this study visits to packing
houses and stock yards conducted by
the instructor may be made very prof
liable features Of the study, it is said.

LUXURlES WILL BE MISSING
Wartime Economy Will Make II I'M
possible for Ball Player to En-
Joy Many Pleasures.

For a good many years the bali
players of the big leagues have trav-
eled like princes ON the road.
They've always had the best OF
neutrality-suspicious. Pullmans, luxur-
ious diners and club cars, and many
long jumps have been made enjoyable
for them because of the fact that they
have always travelled first class.
But the luxuries of railroad travel
at least a good many of them-will be
missing by the time the season Of 1913
opens. Club and observation cars are
to be taken off of nearly every railroad
train which will run on regular
schedule through big league territory,
and wartime economy will make 1T i'm
possible for the ball player to enjoy
many of his favorite dishes on the
diners.

ARTHUR IRWIN is CHEERFUL
Veteran Player and Scout Says Game
Will BE Good as Ever Despite War
Conditions.

The veteran Arthur Irwin takes a
hopeful view of baseball under war
conditions. He believes that the brand
of baseball served up will be as good
as ever and that there will be no COM
planning by the players over the few
luxuries of travel that they will have
to dispense with.
Irwin, who will go back to scouting
this season if the International league
does not continue, says that back in
1894 his Philadelphia team, travelling
on a train that did not have diner,
got into Pittsburgh just in time to beat
1t to the ball yard, and, dinnerless, pro-
ceeded to whip the well-fed Pirates.
saThe Phillies were behind until the
seventh" says Arthur, "tied things up
that inning, and won out in the tenth,
A to 8. They enjoyed their big meal
that night. I think the game was
played the day after the Fourth, but l
know 1t was in 1894"

BEST TO AVOID PNEUMONIA
Always Tendency Among Pigs to Pile
Up in Bed for Purpose of Keeping
Warm in Winter.

During cold weather there is always
a tendency for pigs to pile up in their
bed for the purpose of keeping warm.
Then some of them will become heated
UP, and when they are routed out and
become exposed to the cold weather
many of them will contract pneumonia.
Once this disease attacks pig it near
ly always causes death. If death does
not ensue, there may be cough, diff
cult breathing and, what Is of greater
Importance, stunted condition and
dwarfed size that makes rapid and
profitable growth impossible.

ment of Agricultural
Sheep raising offers one of the most
attractive opportunities in the live
stock industry at the present time.
There is a demand for purebred sheep
for breeding, and for mutton and wool.
One of the best ways to create interest
in sheep raising is to teach the subject
properly to boys in the secondary
schools, is the opinion of a specialist
in agricultural education with the
United States department of agricul-
ture. Many rural districts of the Unit
ed States are not awake to the oppor-
tunity connected with sheep raising,
declares this specialist, in introducing
q new publication of the department,
Bulletin 593, Judging Sheep as the
Subject of Instruction in the Second
airy School,"
Much can be done toward arousing
an interest not only among the boys
but among the farmers of community

to the use of skim milk and shows
that it can be used to greater profit

is natural that bantams of this fowl

cause the ncw-laid egg matches earlier
than the egg which is kept a couple OF
weeks. but because the longer all egg

place, which subtracts from it's vitality.
Furthermore. in holding eggs there is
always tho danger OF unfnvorabIe inlu-
enccs. For instance, il the eggs are
stored in too low a temperature the
chilling is likely TO injure them. If
they arc stored where il is too warm.
the development OF tho germ is apt to
start and later die. \ tcmpera ture Of
from 81 to 30 degrees has been found
TO be the best. and. wherever possible,
the eggs should not be held over two
