Kindness and Patience • Are Essential to Success. If you want a good disposition in of eco that colt wbic�Yi is to become a part 'of farm nest spring begin now . to make it such by. being kind to the prospective mother. writes J.'5'. Gor- don ie. National Stockman. An oath, a kick, a lash with the whip will leave b'e foal. Kindness in its mark upon t a ninety-nine oases out of every hundred will win. There ie more power even with a horse in, kind words than in oaths. Patience is indispensable in the care and training of the young bosses. Per- haps more well bred. high spi;ited horses are ruined by the impatience o!' the owner than from any other one cause.' When we begin the training of young horses two or more years old without any previous 'handling we' should be very careful to remember that they are entirely ignorant of the meaningof the terms we use. We sometimes act as though we thought the colt should become -welt trained .in the art 'of doilig different kinds of work in a very few days, and if he does not we become impatient. and £ very often -abuse him. ,.• Kindness, patience and firmness are the trinity in successful handling of horses. Kindness implies that the horse is properly fed and cared for, pa- •tience that he has been atowed'plenty of time to Learn the things you require him to do and firmness that you re- quire obedience from him both in and out of the harness. That gentle firm- ness in the parent compels the child to respect and admire the same. So gen- tle firmness with the horse results in willing, service. No place in the train.' ing of the horse is this firmness needed more than in teaching the horse to start and stop at your command. It sometimes becomes necessary for ns to take hold of the bridle or the lines and teachthe house he must stand. •A horse ,.that will not stand when he has been quietly stopped is not of much value to the owner.' Firnmees does not mean ,you are to start the�•JJtlorse with a lash' of thb.whip_-ora slap of the lines, nor does.at mean that you are to stop him with a jerk. Firmness does mean you have asked him to do nothing that he cannot do, therefore you require him to do it. Selecting the Brood Sow. In choosing our breeding stock the factor • of prolificness should receive° considerable attention: Select the breeding stock from large litters. Nev- er select an ,animal for breeding pur- poses, no matter how good an individ- ual it may be, if it comes from a litter numbering only two or three. "' It will be more profitable to select an animal somewhat inferior in certain individual points, but which is known to be from a prolific strain. The word prolific does not only mean a large number of pigs in a litter, but it . also refers to the regularity of breeding. A sow may have ten or twelve pigs at a litter, but may breed only once. a year. Another sow may have seven or 'eight pigs at a litter and breed twice a year. With one sow the would raise ten or twelve pigs during the year, whilewith the other we should raise fourteen or six- teen. It is easy to tell which would., be the more profitable. When property handled and cared for, sows should produce; two litters each year. A sow that -111 produce only one litter eacb year should be discardedfrom the breeding herd and replaced by one that will do better.—Farm and Fireside. 'he Boss' Wife. A Case Where a Womaa's.

"He's a naughty. little boy," chided Mrs. Clintock, touching a finger to the baby's dimpled cheek. • "Kiss him again, Mr. Crane; I don't believe he'll mind now." She held out the sleeping baby and Crane befit his head awk- wardly and pressed a kiss on the fair skin. "There, he never stirred! He takes it as a compliment that a big busy man should want to kiss a little boy." Mrs. Clintock's motherly eyes were full: of tears as she replaced the baby in the ere)and returned to the sitting room. Crane was leaning over- the phono- graph, awkwardly fitting on a new rec- ord. "I found -a tune I used to know," he explained without turning his .head. "Help yourself," said Mrs. Clintock as _ she went out to the 'veranda . to meet her husband. She had whisper- ed in his sympathetie ear of the con- versation she had had with the lonely cattleman and of the letter she had hastened to send to Idaho, when; the strains of the phonograph broke forth once more. ' "What's that tune?" asked Bose Clic- tock, his arm around his wife. "It's Ascher's 'Alice, Where Art. Thou?'" returned the little woman. "Dick, L believe her name is Alice!" "Y,gu're right as .usual is my safe bet" grinned the boss,* kissing his Wife.

As With -Lee skipped sq -dealing into the kitchen Mrs. Clintock thrust a nosy, face inside the door. "Can I have a cup of coffee?" she• asked breathlessly. "Yes, nsa'ainl" cried the Crane, set- ting a chair for her and yelling ter the coffeepot. When hehad placed bread and butter and cold meat he- . ''y / fore her and filled a steaming cup she looked at him appealingly. "I hope you won't be mad at me for what I've' done," she began. 4TVO meddled with your affairs." "What have you done?" asked Crane unsuspectingly. The worst she might do, he tbought, would be to aurrepti tiously darn hissocks, as she had been wont to look after the Lone.

He nodded grimly, ,"It was." `And she married a man named Weed? y Again he nodded, and she saw: inter- est in his gaze. "Well, I took tbe liberty of writing '1'o my. cousin in Antelope, and she •,ays AIrs. Weed is a widow now and has returned to Antelope to lirewith h'er father, who is an old man."

Clintock, rising from the table nd turning toward the` door. "Ho s'nys he'll make you foreman of the annex if'you want thejob and that the house is large enough fir three."
