The DIFFERS Invictus
Out of the blight that coUers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,

When my ball fops into the hole.

From Experience
LNXPERIENCE is wise teacher,

school. 1t is surprising how many re.

instructors.
The Reds this seasons might have
profited from the Braves Of 1915, but
they didn't.
After winning the 1914 championship
the Braves developed an inf1amed case
of temperament the next year and blew
The Reds won last year by playing
ball-by hustling and fighting back oi
good pitching. But this season ever
as early as March they began to exhibit
signs Of temperament, which, as Hell
once wisely remarked, "is only higl
brow word for pure, ordinary cussed
ness"
They were not longer ball players
but prima ,donnas. BY continuing thi'
mental attitude throughout the yeai
they put themselves up against it, wher,
today they, might have been comfort
ably ahead.
They had chances to learn from tn,
Braves of 1915, but they refused t.

Now, after six years, Great Britain
sends four Of her best to take a turn

green, TO stay there, becomes a highly
problematical feat. You can easily
come from one depth scudding across
the green into the other and it, there
fore, takes no especial science or tech
nique in the art of high scoring to
chalk down an 8 or 10 when the ball
finally drops into the aggravating cup.
The first two holes are replete with
undulations and dips. with deceptive
distances for the second shots. the play

direction rather than length on the
third, fourth and fifth holes. which are
good ones of the drive and pitch va

The sixth calls for a screaming drive
over a group Of trees and an excessive
amount of control on the green pitch
due to the undulating character Of the
green,
The seventh has a long, narrow
green. The star can take his chance
for the pin or play safe from the
dangerous traps, being content to get
on and then simply face a so TO 100
foot putt.
End OF Perfect "Out"
The only par 5 hole is the ninth. a
wicked ending to what may be a good
out journey.
a long, straight carry from the tee
is necessary. You then have a placed
brassie to the left, around the dog leg
to carry the breast of great sand

HANDLING OF MARE IMPOR-
 TANT IN COLT RAISING

In raising the colt we find that good judgement and care should be exercis- ed in handling the mare before and after the colts birth.We always work the mare Cf necessary up to the day the colt is born; that is, farm work like light or shallow cultivation of crops and light wagon work. We never give her long drives on the road to either buggy or wagon the last three or four days before colt is born. If such work is necessary, she should be allowed to walk or take her time,bu never trot.
 We find light work will do her no injury, and in part will be a great benefit.
 Before the colt is born,we feed the mare just as we would the ordinary farm horse or mule, though, after birth little more judgment should be exercised in feeding. After birth, we find that mixed feed is much better for her than large amount of whole or hard corn. We feed her mixture of coarse hominy, shelled oats, with a little fine feed cl' middlings added, morning and noon, giving her two parts at a feed, and eight ears or good, sound corn at night. In addition she gets all the good alfalfa, timothy or orchad grass hay she will readiiy clean up at each feed.
 Both colt and mare will thrive much better if the farmer has pas ture for them to run in. When the mare is at work, we take her to the colt about 10 a. m., and 4 p. m., to n,,rse. In summer, be sure that she is thoroughly cooled before allowing +ba colt to nurse. We never work the mare the first week after the colt is born. After this time, she will stand almost any kind of farm work or driving. .o,o o
 During the summer of 1913 we found that there is nothing equai U sbelled oats, hominy and middlings for the young colt. We had colt foaled last July and fed the mare mainly on the above feeds aDou' equal parts of each, giving her two quarts at a feed. We noticed Whei, the colt was less than week oio that he was smelling around the teea every time the mare was fed' ana ma when only a week old was helping ms r,other eat. We never had colt to grow off as fast as this one. lie was weaned V at three months old and con tinued to grow off rapidly without a set-back-Wm. H. H., in The ITO gressiye Farmer.

FARMER IS SAVING
 GRACE or NATION

Every instance of planting over- flowed cotton fields to corn, peas, beans, sorghums, or any other crop that can be used for food or feeding purposes is most h eartily endorsed by Vice-Dean and Director Martin Nel- son of the College of Agriculture at Fayetteville.
 "It is vita lalike to the welfare ot Arkansas and to the nation that we produce as much as possible" says Vice Dean Nelson. "With a tremen- dous reduction in the acreage of wheat in this country, and with the condition of the wheat crop ranging below the average, there is to be seen ahead a condition very serious in deed.
 "Another important factor in az gravating conditions is, that in the face of the shortage of production thousands of persons are refusing tc work on the farm or are demanding wage that the farmer cannot af- ford to pay.
 "hTe farmer never has been a pro fiteer nor a striker. He always has been and always will be the saving qrace' of the nation. Let us hope that the responsible farmer will con tinue as he has in the past, nobly tt feed the nation as far as it is physi cally possible for him to do so, ant help reduce the seriousness of the pending crisis, with the hopes tha1
