Lee Brothers had for their brand the
graceful feur-de-Hs. Anchors are COM
mon, but only the John w. Franks ranch
in the Usage Reservation boasts of the
swastika.
A h-knife, hat, the Masonic square,
a key turkey-track, bell, crossed walk
ing-sticks an hour-glass, tree, boot,
a slipper, flag an apple, flower, lad
ders, rakes spades, fence, a doll-baby,
a cotton-hook, fshhook, bottle, bridle-
bits, a frying-pan, pitchfork and even
a comet may be seen among the long list
of brands.
A "scrupe" indicates that the ranch
owner was druggist before becoming
cattleman. Hearts, diamonds, and clubs
are found among the record of brands, but
the spades are those of agricultural design.
The tendency is toward smaller brands.
Branding causes cattle to lose in weight
and the larger the brand the greater the
suffering of the cattle and the greater the
loss of weight, so the old-time custom of
great brands, covering the whole side of
a cow, is passing away. Hides are more
valuable today also, and the big brands
injure the leather.-Ex.

THE TIME HAS COME"

To be really popular you must allow
people to tell you things that you already
know, as if you had never heard of them.
There are times when it is important
to speak, but more times when it is most
important not to speak.
If we were as satisfied with our for
tunes as we are with our judgment, what
a contented old world it would be
The man who is down and out may
get lots of sympathy-but no praise.
Most of our sins of omission are those
we didn't have opportunity to commit.
Leave faulty out of our conversation
and we would be talking in monosyllables.
When you are about to complain, pause
and reflect on how little heed you pay to
the complaints of others.
There are many mortal goddesses-
they are all mothers.
Ideals are the bull's-eyes of life that
should direct our aim.
Don't ignore the man who gets ahead
of you. Study him with care and learn
how he did it.
Half of us fall from our high places
from speaking our thoughts.

Must we quit if we don't get there
quickly?
Note this: There is not one major
figure in American financial, industrial
or commercial life today under forty. Not
one.
And what of the past?
The original J. P. Morgan, though born
rich and reared as an international banker,
was sixty before he did his greatest work
and nearer seventy before Wall Street, in
its hour of trouble, acknowledged him as
its undisputed leader.
Hartman at fifty was an obscure bro
ker with penchant for rairoading.
HilPs hair was gray before he became
Empire Builder of the Northwest.
At fifty Woodrow Wilson was little
known college professor.
Charles Nj. Schwab was president of
the worlds first billion dollar corporation
before he was thirty-fve, lost his steel
throne, dropped from the limelight for
decade, but during this time he redoubled
his efforts and he has done his greatest
work since he crossed the half-century
mark. He did not quit. He stuck.
The three bankers who were the most
influential in America-James Stillman,
Jacob H. Schiff and George F. Baker
averaged seventy years of age when the
first two died while the three leaders of
the younger school'-Henry P. Dawson,
Frank A. Vanderlip and Otto H. Kahn
have all lived half-a-hundred years or
more
There is not leading railroad presi-
dent in the whole land not old. enough to
be grandfather.
Employers today shun shutters.
There is no market for rolling-stones.
Life is so specialized that jacks-of-all-
trades are wanted by none.
To last, man must stick to his last
he cannot hope to be good shoemaker
today and capable plumber tomorrow.
The pace today calls for men of red
blood, not white livers, men of grit, not
crouch.
Stickers, not sticklers, are wanted.
Is it not the literal truth that America,
as we know it, owed its discovery by
Christopher Columbus to this very virtue
of stick-to-itiveness?
Without stick-to-itiveness no man is
likely to climb to the top of the ladder
and stick there.-Forbes Magazine.

HISTORY WRITTEN IN THE CAT
TIE BRANDS OF TEXAS

Romance comedy, and tragedy, which
have played so large part in the devel
opment of Texas and the Southwest, clus-
ter thick around those cabalistic signs by
which the ranchers of Texas have identi-
fled their cattle for the last few centuries.
Around these pyramids have conferred
thrilling deeds enough to fill several vol
umes, not to mention some thousands of
feet of movie-flm. The simple marks
have been the means of bringing swift
retribution to host of outlaws they have
served as the basis for transactions involv-
ing the sale of untold millions of head of
cattle. Men have died with great sud-
denness because of an unexpected crook

York EVening Post has made some inves-
LEGATIONS of these markings with the fol-
lowing interesting results:
The records of the Texas Cattle Raisers'
Association show that there are more than
5000 registered brands in this State, says
an Austin correspondent of the Los An
geles Times. No two brands are alike.
Usually each brand represents separate
ranch. 1t is often the case that a ranch
is much better known by the brand of
its cattle than by the name of the owner.
Owners may change, but the brand never.
