DEVELOPING DRAFTERS

- It requires skill and a liberal sys-
tem of feeding to grow and develop a
high grade draft horse for market
' writes W Milton Kelly In Country
' Gentleman The actual difference In
cost between growing the right kind
and mongrels Is so very small that it is
folly for a man to start the business
with a lot of old nondescript mares
and depend on the good qualities of
the stallion to correct their natural
weaknesses and deformities In the
progeny The man who knows how to
care for and feed bis farm teams sr
that they will keep In good flesh hu(
vigorous condition can afford to lnesi
a few hundred dollars In good brood
mares and grow horses for uiurUoi
The farmer who Is In a posit iou i-
market one or two good draft tesiu
each year has an additional tm mm
that la from a much easier and uioi
certain source than many utl-
Branches of stock feeding
After selecting a few well bred
mares that are free from all hered)
tary disease mate them with a stallim
of one of the leading draft breeds and
one that Is not only a good ludi tdim'
but a true type and representative oJ
bis breed The stallion should cm
weigh to exceed 600 pounds more that
the mare with which he Is to be mat
ed In all lines of stock breeding we
And that nature abhors a union ol
widely different types and that It will
usually produce better results to mute
the mares with stallions somewhere
near their weight and resembling them

While home farmers are beglnblng to
appreciate the Importance of using
sound pure bred stallions the equal
Importance of nslng sound mares Is
not yet generally understood When a
mare by reason of unsoundness no
longer Is lit for anything else she often
to set aside for breeding purposes and
so long as this absurd and ruinous pol
Icy persists the penalty will be paid
In the prevalence of unsound horses
on our farms
The success achieved In the breeding
of Clydesdale horses in Canada serves
as a good example of what can be ac
compllshed by persistency and expert
selection The Scottish element ol
the Dominion’s population has been
partial to the Clydesdale breed and
conversant with Its good qualities and
utility hence Imported Clydesdale stal
lions of the best character have beet
largely employed In the breeding op
eratlons of that country since the yeui
1842 Practically speaking no alien
crosses have been made and the aver
age farmer has been capable of se
(acting suitable mares and of adequate
y developing their progeny The re
suit Is that Canada has but one tyix
of draft horses and It Is a good one

BROTHERS REUNITED BY FATE
A most unusual case developed In'
McAllister hospital Waukegan 111
recently when two brothers met fori
the first time since they were chil-
dren They were forced to talk to
each other through an Interpreter for
each spoke a different language one
Austrian the other Lithuanian
The two men are known In Wau-
kegan as Joe - Petosky and Tony
Peske The former Is the Austrian
while Peake Is the Lithuanian Fao-
tory accidents resulted In the hospital
reunion
The brothers when mere children
were separated In their native land
and while their parents were Aus-
trian Peske was taken by a Lithuan-
ian family and reared by them learn-
ing only their language and knowing
nothing of Austrian or his Austrian
relatives A few years ago both came
to America and strangely both came
to Waukegan PetoBky arriving a year
earlier than his brother of whom he
lost track In the old cpuntrv
At the Wild Gessa Fly
There can be no more Impressive
sight than a straining line of wild
geese moving In the clear air with
steady strokes their rigid necks point-
ing to their northern summer home
their outlines slowly diminishing un-
til as a row of floating dots they van-
ish In the uncertain distance
As they scan the continent In their
northward sweep the feeble efforts
that dot It here and there with cities
must seem to them helpless presump-
tion They call In the joy of their
strength and the poor prisoners of
gravitation fancy that the resonant
tones from the vast airy dome are a
special message to their own little
worlds More Impressive than this
voice of the open day or the sight of
the vigorous and steady forma cours-
ing the air Is the sonorous mingling
cries In the starry dome when the lofty
way of travelers Is concealed by the
enshrouding night

CONCERNING MEERSCHAUM
The Valuable material from which
meerschaum pipes are made to con-
tinually getting scarcer and the large
Industry which has flourished In Vi-
enna Budapest Nuremberg Paris and
In the Thurlnglan town of Ruhla
seems endangered The manufacture
of meerschaum pipes Is much more
Important than Is generally supposed
The town of Ruhla alone has been
lex porting In round figures pipes to the
value of about 11600000 annually
The finest grade of meerschaum Is
found near Ekl-Schellr In Anatolia
Asia Minor In a hollow which In early
days was a lake In which the meer-
schaum was precipitated Meerschaum
Is also found In other places Includ-
ing Thebes Egypt the Bosnian
mountains In the neighborhood of
Qrubschltx and Nuendorff In Moravia
and In some sections of Spain and
Portugal

"The harem skirt or Jupe-culotte

sumed: "Yea the arguments against ths

Aa to the Hiring of Vateta
"I have noticed” the manager of a
hotel said where almost every man
who stops has a valet and every wom-
an one or more maids "that people
nowadays avoid having a valet or
maid that Is of their own size If a
man la small ha gets a big valet and
If he Is toll hie valet will he tiny
It la the same way with the women
In regard to their maids The reason
is to keep servants from wearing
their masters’ or mlstra-ises’ clothes
And It Is not only ontslde clothe but
shirts collars neckties and under
wear they appropriate 1 have seen
men engage valets often and I know
that size 1s the first Item taken Into
consideration”
