OF COURSE IT WASN'T TRUE
Good Illustration Of German charac-
ter in Simplicity Displayed by
Soldier in France.

One American who remained at
Lille during. the German occupation
used his time to study German charae-
ter. He told Mrs. COrrina Fl. Smith
and Mrs. Caroline r. Hill, authors Of
"Rising Above the Ruins in France"
one astonishing thing that he had mo-
ticed--the childish unreasoning conf
dence that the German soldier had in
whatever he was told by his superb
ors--and the gave this example of it
Il knew German" he said, "and one
day I talked with a German sentry
who was standing over some French
civilians at work in field. He was
reading newspaper and, turning to
me, said Indignantly. The French sag

Neckwear is important because the

TO ESTABLISH SHEEP FLOCK
Farmers Should Not Hesitate TO Pay
Good Price for Ewes That Pro
duce Thrifty Lambs.

In establishing flock of sheep do
not hesitate to pay good price for
ewes if they are exactly adapted, and
especially for those that, when judi
ciously mated, are likely to produce
lambs that win give the best return
for the food which they consume. It
is of the utmost Importance to make
use Of rams that possess great indiyid-
uaI merit, and strongly inherit the
good points by which they are distin-
guished. Unless ram has a good
masculine head and stands firmly on
strong legs he should not be selected,
however great his merits may be In
other respects. Breeding ewes should
be kept in good store condition. Show
condition and low condition both must
be avoided.

Work Animals il Demand.

Pennsylvania and the states east

Of the work animals they use and are
constantly drawing on the Central
West for their work stock. Many OF
these are farm chunks sold directly
to eastern farms, while others are
horses produced and worked on the
farms of the Mississippi valley until
five or six years old, then passed TO
eastern cities, where after six or eight
years of service they are resold as
sore-footed city-wOrn horses to deal
ers, who sell them at a very nominal
figure to farming sections of New Eng
land, to work the balance Of their
days. Such horses represent a COM
plete cycle from farms to cities and
back to farms again. II is more true
now than in the past, that the good

COLT NEGLECTED IN SPRING
No one Considers That He Should Be
Gradually Changed Over From
Dry Winter Ration.

Consider the colt in the springtime !
Maybe he is yearling with a half
formed equine mind full Of curiosity
and wonderment. Every old horse on
the place is off In the fields some
where at work in daylight. His owner
neglects the colt as much as he can
and have the youngster live.
The half remembered green fields
and pastures Of last year become green
once more. The colt has vogue memo
ries Of the taste of green things that
mingled on his taste-nerves with the
flavor Of mothers milk. From between
the cracks in the post-and-plank
fence that incloses his world he looks
upon the sprlnglng grass, marvels
and hunga Part Of his hunger is
plain hunger, part is memory and
most Of it is instinct, but It is all
very real.
He is lonely little hldeful Of I'M
stincts and cravings about to start his
second year. He is a bewiIdered or
plan Of the farm stalls and stables,
accustomed to his corn and alfalfa,
and with all the troubles Of horsedom's
life before him. About half the time
no one considers that he should be
gradually changed over from the dry
winter ration TO the soft green sum-
mer ration, and when the change
comes 1t comes so quickly that there
is not days time for that young
horses stomach to get used to it.
For long weeks the pillow teams have
been getting ready for the change. i
they could not sense the spring in the
air, in any other way they might know
1t from the gradually increasing
amount Of corn that is going in the
feed boxes. They are being worked
little more and little steadAer than
they were while January's SHOWS still
covered the pastures. The colt, though,
goes his neglected way until some day
after the oats are in and every pillow
moldboaSd on the place is like bur-
nlshed silver, then all at once some one
decides It is high time that the colt
was on the pasture.
On the pasture he goes. 1t may be
just enough of a pasture to keep life
within his hide, but he must get along
with an occasional sailing on sunny
Sunday mornings. The grass may be
thin and watery, tasteless compared
with that good alfalfa he has been
