Dear Editor :—The above .question which headed an article in a l'ordn- to paper rather startled me as I read It and I wondered if it might not apply to some parents in Clin- ton. The :writer answered; the ques- tion as coming front the parents thus, "I don't know," " Is_.that the ease concerning the groups of chil- dren, (some of very tender age) who are seen, often to a very late hour, roaming our streets.? 1 often_ think ofthesaying of a person who had become very depraved, "My street eduCation ruined me."

Thehard outside work of the sea- son• is now over,, both for ourselves and our horses, During the past Lew months great demands have been made on the energy of our horses. These demands have necessitated g,00.l feeding, and we have given it.' We must take care, however, that as the work slackens the feed is slack- ened also. If vie were to continue feeding this month as we have been accustomed to doing we Will be giv- ing more food than the animal can make use of. Its system' will get loaded up with nutriment, and this will turn to poison and'have a most detrimental effect on the animal's system..' Constipation, which is so common with farm horses at this season, isdue almost altogether to this excessive feeding. There is danger, too, in going to the other extreme. I know of far- niers who, the minute work ct.ips cut the grain ration down to the vanishing point and make timothy hay the main feed fiir the rest of the winter. They forget that the horse's system has been accttstomed to lib- eral feeding, and that the sudden change is too great a shock to the digestive system. Excessive feeding now or any sud- den change in feeding is particularly detrimental to mares due to foal next spring. With them we exercise the greatest care in changing both the food and the exercise. Wb would make work for thein rather than slacken up suddenly. We curry our horses almost as re- gularly in winter as we do in sum- mer. On too many farms the boy's driver is the only horse that gets treated right in the matter of clean- ing. A clean, healthy skin is as need- ful to the horse as it is to its awn- er. Good Morning ! dear reader. ]flow does your sub. to The News -Record read ? The label tells the story. ROD AND GUN.

WILL REINTRODUCE HIGHWAYS BILL. The announcement that the' Govern- ment intends to reintroduce the Can- ada Highways lmprovemerct Act which was killed by the Opposition nia;ority in the Senate at the close of the last session, shows that the Borden Government does not intend to he, prevented by one setback from carrying into effect its pre-election pledges.; The policy of federal aid to highways was an important feature of the platformwhichthe people of Can-' ada approved at the last general el. action in placing the present minis- try in power, The hill introduced by IIon., Frank Cochrane last session was intended to make good the pro- mise made to the people.

A REAL TOWN BUILDER. Last week there died in Berlin ''a real town builder, though he never bulked very large in extensive in- dustrial enterprises. John Kimmel contracted in a modest way .tor a row years, following that up with a dip into grocery business. All the time he was engaged in raising a large family. His boys stuck 'o their home town and when the lather stied four of them were captains of i'uhtstry —A. J., of the °enaclian Consolidated Felt Company ; .Arthur, of the I{im- mel-Forsyth 'Company ; John, of the Kimmel Felt .Company, and Armand, manager of the Edntira Felt Co. The industrious' habilis of the father and mother were inherited by these boys Environment, inclination and oppor- tunity have done the rest. The fathf er was the real town' builder in this case, and we doubt riot the. Boys who have achieved a competence ,would be the first to.. acknowledge the debt. they owe him, not to speak of the influence a good mother has had upon their lives. The .history of the ,,:, Kimmel family is the history of many other families ire Berlin, the record of that town telling the sec- ret of the rapid growth in recent years, The Home Brew in Berlin has loyally put his shoulder to the wheel to keep things humming in his town. 00022 MORNING!
