to take his staff off in the stall and
before l could take a step he gave
a fierce bawl and the next thing /
knew he had me down MASKING me
and blowing his hot breath in my
face. He backed, made a dash at me
and threw me up in the manger. He
did it so quickly that / didn't have
time to pray but l thought my time
had come. / took the big heavy staff,
aimed it between his eyes and tried
to kill him. He jumped at the staff
with such force that it struck on the
edge of the manager bounced back
and knocked g plank off Of the stall.
His eyes looked like balls of fire.
When / got well I handled him, but
in a different way. l always made
him turn around with me on the safe
side of the door. Always keep your
eye on a wicked bull. He is cunning
and quick as a cat.
A good bull deserves a good place,
a stout, comfortable stall. The pad
dock should be enclosed with a very
strong fence and contain an acre of
good grass and good, pure running
water. Never have a draft through
his stall. l saw a $1,000 bull die from
pneumonia caused by a draft through
his stall. l saw a $4,000 bull die
from injuries received from jumping
over a fence that was not properly
built. Bad fencing and careless per-
sons leaving gates and doors open
teaches the herd bull bad habits.
Many valuable herd bulls have been
ruined by unkind treatment and i'm
proper feeding which finally makes
them cross and dangerous to handle.
A kind, gentle touch will win their
confidence and they will always look
for a getle touch and a generous
feed.
When a herd bull belongs to the
royal family and is catalogued, I
print his name and headline in
blue or red ink. Then every breed
err will know at a glance that he
belongs to the royal family, and is in
q different class from the plain-bred
This is a help to the beginner
and makes the catalogue more at
tractive. w e. Stilwell.

AUGUST B. OLSON.

At sos p. M, Sunday a message
came over the wire with the sac
words: August B. Olson s dead.
There eve was a more stunning
shock dealt to my senses, since the
moment, where / felt the fact that
my parents were beyond the scope
CT lips communion.
For here passed a mortal that it
was pleasing to emulate.
In early youth he was cast by cir
cumstance on the rugged, cold, wide
world, a penniless orphan without
the rudiments of a school education,
but it is essential to follow his ca
Ireer OF through young manhood, and
a realization town., that there was a
man Of indomitable power of Will,
to do things honestly, Justly and
With a sincerity profound without a
flaw.
His wisdom gained momentum
with age, until Lis advice was sought
On issues Of the day by all.
No problem Of life too hard to
solve, no obstacle. too obdurate for
him to scale.
We, that knew hinl bow our heads,
as we feel the keen loss that befallen
the county of Grenada, and tire good
State Of Mississippi.
A noble spirit has tsken the voy-
age on the ship Eternity.
Farewell,

THE OLD

All the pleasant and wholesome
philosophy of life that Denman
Thompson impaired with such rare
skill in "The Old Homestead" will
be presented by Augustus Pitou Inc,
at the Opera House, Tuesday night,
December 7th.
With it will be the ever popular
old character of "Uncle Joshua" por-
trayed by William Lawrence, who
has played the part over three thous-
and times. Through every act, from
the enc depicated at the "Old
Homestead" in Swanzey, in the resi-
dence of Henrya Hopkins of Fifth
Ave-, and back again in the kitchen
of the Old Homestead, Mr.. Lawrence
portrays a real "Uncle Joshua" filling
the different role as near perfection
any Characterization could posi-
bly, be.
There will be the famous double
q%uartette in the good old songs,
which have always proven so popular
the play and the singing of "The
Palms" in the Grace Church scene.
The parade of the Salvation Army
and the Swanzey Band for the old
fashioned country dance.
This play that made Denman
name a household word
in America has all the attractions of
the pure and noble virtues of a type
OF life in al era of our history that
all Americans would do well to re-
call and ponder Ger in these DAYS of
modern problems and extremes of
various kinds.

JUDGING THE HERD BULL.

There never was such a demand
for hero bulls of the beef type with
quality and breeding. A high-class
herd bull builds up the herd, increas-
es its value and also builds up the
farm. Fine cattle and u~p-to-date
farms go together. For a good
breeder he should have a clean, bony
head, a pure white nose, with med
iurn horns slightly curv'd, wide be-
tween the eyes which denotes in
telligence. The eye must have a
Eoild, kind expression. He will pro-
duce the gentle calf that makes a
good feeder and a ga-tle COW. The
eye that has that fierce, vicious ex-
preston Will produce the Two
calf that makes a peer feeder, q
COW and a dangerous bull.
1t was the cow that caus-
ed great fire in Chicago, it was the
bull with the vicious eye that killed
two men in two months. His neck
should taper anc widen gradually
back TO the body that ShoulL have
great width. His ribs and heart
girth must extend out so a straight
edge will be perfectly full all the
way II PlISSO JuSC OtSCh VI QlS Sf1Oul-
der. The top line should be straight
and he should flank down well, his
ribs must be full and plump, his legs
must be well muscled with a good
stout bone; his coat must be soft
with a deep, mellow flesh. He must
have natural style and carry his head
above his back line. He must be at
tractive with a great form that ma
ture and a skilled feeder can pro-
duce.
This is a very important part to
perform, he must have a good sire
and dam, if she does not furnish
enough milk a nurse cow should be
added for the ribs must be sprung
out at the start. Just as soon as
he will eat grain and grass he should
have it. Fix his feeding place so
that his front feet will be higher !
than his hind feet. This gives him
a good strong back. Growing a fine
calf js like growing fine show corn.
Ii it lacks moisture or fails to have
proper cultivation then a few faulty
grains and a lack of plumpness that
should be there causes it to miss the
prize. Just SO with the calf. He
must nave all n requirements that
a skilled feeder gives him to fill out
and develop that beautiful form he
must have to be the champion calf.
1t is very important that the sire
and dam should be in good strong
flesh and their feed should be of the
very best. They should not be too
fat or pamperad. Overlooking or
lack of feed will produce a delicate
calf.
When / was a boy we bought a
new bull and when they brought him
home they led him with a staff.
asked the man why he led him that
way. He said it was so he could hold
/ looked him over and agreed
that he was a fine bull but / didn't
like his eye. / took charge of him
md forgot about those wicked eyes. ]
. short time after he came, / went ]

shower of pink ribbons which were
tied to tall candle sticks that CLEAN
ed on the table. The place cards

and grooms.

ORIENTATIoN OF MIR. BRYAN

Bryan is again running for President
Ills former campaign manager is touring
the east IN an effort to revive the Bryan
leagues. Later, perhaps, he will attempt
10 revive the Bryan issues without wait
ing for the aid or consent of. any other
nation on EARTH" as they used to say.
Bryan was always apt at finding pic
turesque issues that lent themselves to
flamboyant catch phrases, but times
change and we change with them and we
much fear that he who once was "the boy
orator of the Platte" can no longer lure
The attentive ear Of the voters with his
musical epigrams. The MAN above the
dollar" and Back to the people," were
magical in their day but now they are
as lusterless as an old handful. 1t will
be necessary to create new issues that
will fit the Bryan school Of oratory and
light new lamps of epigram. The task is
not easy for spellbinder.
Surely Mr.. Bryan cannot face the night
mare of his record as secretary of state
without losing heart. Those who main
tanned their faith in him without waver-
ing for many years felt that something
had gone out of their lives when their
old idol was put to the test and turned out
to be, not gold nor even silver and gold at
the ratio of sixteen to one, but common
clay, or, perhaps, "Commoner" clay, if we
may be permitted the pun.
For years his foes had questioned the
,soundness of his judgment and it was IA
tai for him that, in his first position of
power, he should commit an error of
Judgment which was to lose him not oniv
the office but the trust and confidence of
a devoted following that never had WOW
cred before in their adoring faith.
