Memory and Habit Count in Colt Breaking

Memory and Habit
 .. ...s Count in Colt Breaking
 The breaking and training of colts is of prime importance, says the United States Department of Agri- culture, because their future value and usefulness depend to a great extent on whether or not they are we'll broken. By a broken colt is meant one that is safe to handle in the stable or on the road and that will promptly obey the orders of the driver or rider.
 Memory and habit are the two main factors with which we have to deal in training horses. A horse acts through instinct and habit, and one of it's greatest characteristics is uni formity of conduct. What horse is once trained to do he will nearly always do under like conditions.
 The first thing in training horse is to get his attention. The second is to make him understand what is wanted. The education of the horse is based on reward and punishment. The reward, pat on the neck, etc, should immediately follow the act of obedience. The punishment, to be effective, must immediately follow the act of disobedience.
 Few horses are inherently vicious. Many horses are made vicious and unreliable by the carelessness or unnecessary brutality of their trainers. If a horse kicks because the harness hurts him, or shies at , something ioof wrihc he is afraid, punishment is not justifable. If, however, after being stopped, a horse starts before receiving the command to do so, he should be punished. Horses are naturally obe- dinet, and when thoroughly trained theid condurct is uniformly good. A hrose should be trained so that he thinks there is no limit to his pow CT to do the things required of him, and believes that he has no power to etc do that which is against the wishes of his driver,. Above all, never ask of horse something he is unable to perform and then punish him because it acn be done. If dur ing the first year of his. work a colt is hitched onyl to loads he can pull, he vii develop into a good work horse, while if he is overloaded few times he may become balky and worthless.

Farm Bureau Drives


 In the eight counties of Connecti- cut drives are now on for additional membership in the County Farm Bureaus. The following information as to what constitutes a Farm Bu- reau and how it is supported, is taken from a little booklet recently issued by the Connecticut Agricultural Col lege.
 "A County Farm Bureau is an or ganization of the interested persons of the county, formed (and in six counties in Connecticut incorpor- ated) to promote better agriculture and rural life, and to make available for these purposes, through coopera- tion with the Extension Service of the Connecticut Agricultural College national, state and county appropria- tions.
 "Any adult on payment of the membership fee of One Dollar per year, may join the Farm Bureau. Several counties have Junior mem bers, who pay fifty cents annually, which is considered subscription to the monthly County Farm Bureau publication.
 /, Because the work can be SUD- ported only in part from public funds, and because the State and County appropriations are depen- dent by law on the previous raising of at least s1,000 annually in each county through membership and

Beautifying the Farmstead

Suitable plantings are necessary to unite the parts of farmstead into a pleasing, homelike whole, says the United States Department of Agri- culture. Trees are used for wind breaks, as frames for the buildings or background for them, and to give shade. Shrubs are needed in abundance to hide partially the foundation lines of buildings, SUD- port their corners, give reasons for turns in drives or walks, and to screen unsightly objects. Native trees and shrubs and those known by trial to thrive in the locality are the best to use.

 "Two thousand Dollars annually is received by each Farm Bureau from the state on certifcation by the Trustees of the Connecticut Agri- cultural College that the County has raised at least 5000 in the year ending June 30.
 "The amount. contributed from the county funds varies. The largest annual contribution is $5,000. Nc county is required to support its Farm Bureau, but any county may do so, provided the Farm Bureau has raised 5000. by subscriptions and contributions. So far this year seven counties have contributed to their Farm Bureaus, and in the eighth the matter is now under con. sideration."

Be HARD BATTLE.
Washburn and ST. Mary's
Clash Here Tonight.
Bearg Expects Win-BIue Plays
Baker Tomorrow.

A Washburn basketball team
primed up by a long, hard practice
and full of determination to win will
meet st. Mary's in Thomas gymnasium
tonight. The game will be one of the
best of the local season, it is expected.
The Catholics come with clean
slate and with the dope slightly favor
ing them. They have their usual
speed with plenty Of beef to back the
speed. according to Coach Elmer
Rearg of Washburn
Bearg expects Washburn to win,.
however. He says the Blue five is in
better shape than ever before this sea-
son. many of the rough edges having
been planed off by the long, gruelling
grind of the past week, and the boys
are out for St. Mary'S scalp with a
vengeance. He banks on the "old
Ichabod fight" to win.
Tomorrow afternoon the Washburn
team leaves for Baldwin, where they
will play Baker tomorrow night
Bearg expects about the same kind of
game there as the one here tonight,
but with the large Baker court work
ing a hardship on the Washburn team.
Il expect my men to take both
games" was the word from Bears
today.
The Blue mentor said he would
start practically the same lineup
against Baker as against st. Mary ;
tonight. Nine IchabodS will make the
trip. so Bearg will have plenty Of sub
stitutes. The Baker lineup has been
announced as follows: Sheue and NC
Donald. forwards: Nevins, center;
Robert Wellborn and Rankin Well
born, guards.
Lane, guard on the St. Mary's team,
will be remembered by local fans for
his stellar work at halfback on the
Catholic eleven last fall.

RAIL EMPLOYES
 DEMAND COPIES
 IF STATISTICS
TRepublican A. p. leased Wlrel

CHICAGO, May 24.-A demand that the committee representing the rail- roads in the hearing being conducted by the railroad labor board on the em- ployes' demands for increased wages be compelled to furnish employees with copies of all statistics presented was made today by the employees repre- sentatives.
 The demand was made, it was said, to prevent inaccuracies concerning the wages now received from creeping into the minutes k. T. Winter, chairman of the committee representing the As- sociation of Railway Executives, which is presenting a reply to the demancs for increased wages, agreed to furnish the employees representative with copies of all testimony presented and to inform them of the source of mucn information"
 The employees representa- atives said when they presented their testimony before the board in Washington they had furnished the roads with copies of their statistics and work sheets show ing how these statistics were reached
 The demand came after MT. Winter had attacked demands of the railroad clerks for higher wages on the ground it would be unjust to many men and to the roads to grant a blanket fn- crease.
 While many of these men merit consideration, it would be unfair TO grant a general increase affecting all of them he said Fully one-half of these clerks are from IS to 23 years oi age and receive good pay considering their age and eXperience.'
 Mir Winter said the average pay for junior clerks was $87.50 a month and that the proposed wage increase would bring their pay to an average of $12S.se a month. During the past five years they have received increases of from "A to 130 per cent, he said.
 Mir. Winter also raised the question of the boards authority to grant in- creases retroactive to any date prior to March ], when the transportation act creating the board went Into effect

Flood Dangers In Rio Grande Valley
 Are Believed Past

ALBUQUERQUE, N. M., May A. After a night and forenoon of intense anxiety, Albuquerque citizens and resi- dents of the Rio Grande valley were relieved this afternoon when it was found that the Rio Grande was going down and that the danger of a severe flood had passed. The water rose to feet 6 inches above normal, the highest stage recorded since 1904
 Despite the fact that the danger of a general overflow of the valley seems to have been averted for the present, thousands of acres of farm lands are under water, due to slight breaks in the dikes, the water flowing over the dikes in places. It is impossible to estimate the damage now. This cannot be done until the water recedes. But it is cer- tain that growing crops on farm lands and buildings have been damaged to the extent of thousands of dollars.
 Many people living in the lowlands of Albuquerque were driven from their homes by the flood.

 The presidents message was read in both houses, but was discussed in neither Each referred it to its com mittee on foreign relations.
 Some senate republicans predicted that the message would lie in the sen ate committee indefinitely.
 Chairman Lodge of the senate com mittee, had no comment to make. In the past, however, he has declared em- phaticaIly his opposition to a mandate.
 Harding Opposes Mandate
 Senator Harding, republican, chafr- man of the committee which investi- gated Armenian affairs said he would never consent to take mandate over Armenia and added he did not think the senate would consent.
 Senator Harding is the author of the resolution adopted by the senate con ognition of their independence and asking the president to send a, Warship and American marines to Baku. The president referred to his resolution in his message put senators pointed out this measure was adopted for substi- tute for one by Senator Williams, dem ocrat.

 The president informed the senate that he had accepted the invitation Of the allied supreme council that he un- dertake to arhitrate the questions O the boundary between Turkey and sr- menia saying he had thought # his dvty "to accept this difficult and deli cate task"

BY SOLON AROUSES IRE IF
 NAVY YSECRET ETARY

WASHINGTON, May 24.-Cross ex- animation of Secretary Daniels before the senate naval Investigating commit tee today wound about from verbal wrangle to debate and back to clashes between the secretary and Chairman Hale. The latter requested MT. Dan iels to answer ives" or mo" and the secretary challenged the right of the chairman to tell him how to reply.
 T am secretary of the navy and I shall answer you in accordance with the duties of my office" the secretary retorted. You have no more right to tell me how to answer a question than I have to tell you how to ask it."
 Mr. Daniels testimony today dealt largely with the navy departments war plans in April, 1917. He fur nished list of war plans, to refute, he said Rear Admiral Sims charge that the department had no dual plans.
 During one interchange, the chair man accused MT. Daniels of delaying the hearing by introducing irrelevant matter and by giving evasive an swers.
 At the present rate it looks like this committee will be here all summer the chairman added. "All right" re- piled MT. Daniels, that suits me"
 T can't understand why you are in troducing so much irrelevant matter, continued Chairman Hale. "These hearings are being conducted at great expense and I would think you would be as anxious as any of us to expedite them"
 T am not introducing irrelevant matter and I do wish to expedite the hearings" replied MT. Daniels. But I intend to give full answers to ques- tions if it takes all summer
 Mir. Daniels said the navy depart ment had plans "as adequate as any in the history of any navy in the world' for war against any possible enemy"
 They included he said, general plans for war against Germany and anti submarine campaign, mobilization. operating command, strategy and logi- cal plans.
 Asked if he was a naval expert when he became secretary. MT. Daniels replied that he was not, but that he had been studying naval organization and administration seven years.
