BOOZE AND WATER

Old Forty-Rod is on the blink, it's knell
will soon be footed; but water is goodly
drink, when it is not diluted Oh, water
makes no strong appeal to sports all soaked
with whiskey; they want drink that makes
them feel obstreperous and frisky But soon
twill be a grounding case, this thing of
water drinking; man can't buy bitters for
his face, or get the same by winking. And
this will rack full many mind, to some
make life distressing; but soon the red nosed
sports will find that hydrants are blessing.
1t is noble thing to rise, at morn, with
buoyant body, and have no sore and blood
shot eyes, no headaches loud and gaudy.
It's fine to spend restful night, nor dream
of alligators, and then to have an appetite
for steak and eggs and taters. It's good
to have bone or two, to have a kopeclz
handy that will not go for someone s brew,
some brand Of gin or brandy The hydrant
draws no gilded boys, no dead game sports
surround it; but it increases human joys,
when once the soak has found it; when once
he's learned to like the juice that from the
hydrant trickles, he has to wonder why the
deuce he blew for beer his nickels

THE VISION OF LINCOLN.

Whene 'er some vested wrong seems right,
When error sits on Freedoms throne;
Whene 'er Goliath armOr-shod
Shall dare to challenge Heavens own
God sends some David to the field
The power of darkness to dethrone.
Our Lincoln, reared among the woods,
From virgin soil had drawn it's powers,
Untutored in the ways Of kings
Had grown in silence as the flowers.
From nature learned the secret strength
Of storm clouds and Of darkened hours
The powers of darkness, safely throned,
Laughed deep in scOrn to see him come
In homely garb and ready wit.
With jest and laughter on his tongue,
They could not Sc ethe sword Of flame
Hid beneath the coarse homespun.
He used the vision God had given
To set race of bondmen free
Not hate, but plying love was given
TO all who called him enemy.
And in the deepest, darkest hours
His soul drank deep from hidden powers.
Today above world hate riven
Majestic-like his face I see,
With heart of strength and love sustaining
All those who work for liberty
And smiles as one whose soul can see
A world United! Happy! Free!

THE NOBLEST REVENGE.
(By DR.. Frank Crane. }

BY DIR. Frank Crane.
The don test of al don is is Don't get
even.
The greatest Of all time-wasting is time
wasted on revenge.
1t not only is a waste of time, but also Of
gray matter, nerve, force, vitality, and soul
juice and life reserves.
The desire for retaliation is the most
dangerous lust that enslaves human beings
When you want to hurt him who has
hurt you you want something that irritates
you while you want it, disappoints you when
you get it, and makes you feel mean after
it's all over.
You can't get through this life without
meeting people who injure you. There are
those that snub you, those that betray you
those that cheat you, those that envy you,
besides all the swarm of spiteful, malicious
weak, and venomous human mosquitoes,
worms, and wasps
If you stop and chase each Of these to
punish them you will have no time for any
thing else.
If you allow yourself to think of them
they will poison you until your mind is sour
as buttermilk, your sleep ruined and your
hours of leisure turned from content to
wretchedness.

not you forgive an offense: the only salts
flying thing is to forget it.
Go on!
There's too much to do to stop and fight
bees. Life's too rich to pauperize it by hate
Let it pass! Go on!
Doubtless your enemy needs thrashing
But what's that to you? The question is:
What do YOU need? You need peace Of
mind. poise and contentment; and to keep
thinking about him is to upset yourself
When man wrongs us, let us simply
drop him. He's out of our life Bood-bye
There are plenty of Others AS far as we are
concerned he is an undesirable citizen and
that's all there is to it, Next!
Why redress injuries? They always re-
dress themselves automatically better than
we can redress them.
We don't realize the self acting, automat-
ic equalizing efficiency of the spiritual
world. It's more actual than any mechani-
cal device. When a man does dirt, he gets

at hideous Europe now; the mountains of

When Jesus said that about turning the
other cheek he was not talking impossible
idealism, but plain sense

be shaped by it:
An injury can grieve only when remem-

PLAN FOR BETTER DAIRYlNG
Joint Ownership of Purebred Sires
Enables Herd Improvement at
Minimum Expense.

Dairymen who would like to use
nurebred bulls to improve their herds
but who cannot afford to purchase
such animals should investigate the
advantages of cooperative bull as
ISOLATION. These organizations are
formed by farmers for the Joint own
ership, use and exchange Of purebred
bulls. The purchase price and cost of
maintenance are distributed according
to the number of cows owned by each
member, thereby giving the dairyman
an opportunity to build up his herd
at minimum expense. The organi-
cation also helps its members to mar
ket dairy stock and dairy products, to
fight contagious diseases of cattle in
telligently, and in other ways to assist
in improving the dairy industry.
The typical cooperative bull asso-
citation is composed of from fifteen to
thirty farmers, who Jointly own five
bulls. The territory in which these
farmers live is divided into five
breeding blocks" one bull being as
or sixty cows may belong TO the farm
ers in each block, and the bull in the
block should be kept on q conveniently
located farm. To prevent inbreeding
each bull Is moved to the next block
every two years. If all the bulls live,
and if all are kept until each has made
one complete circuit, no new bulls need
to be purchased for ten years. In this
way each member of the association
has the use of good purebred bulls for
many years, at a cost of only a small
part of the purchase price of one good
bull-usually less than is invested in
a more inferior bill owned by indl-
vidual dairymen.
In survey conducted by the United
States department of agriculture on
1,219 farms in eight districts in Iowa,
Minnesota and Massachusetts in which
there were no associations, 1t was
found that there were SIT bulls, hay
ing an average value of $40. Had the
owners Of these cheap bulls been prop
erly organized the same investment
would have purchased the necessary
bulls of an average value of S2S3. In
one association having more than 100
members the original cost of good
purebred bulls to each member was
only S23. When questioned regarding
the value Of cooperative bull associa-
dons, $50 farmers in Maryland, Michi-
gan and Minnesota estimated that the
