Dress at Monta Carlo.
The management of the Casino at
Monte jCarlo is compelled regretfully
to read a sartorial riot act to the fre-
quenters of the most sensational gam-
bling center iu the world. A certain
amount of laxness Iu the matter of
dress has beeu apparent and as a re-
sult the tables have lost some of the
distinguished appearance that they
used to have. Henceforth gentlemen
will uot be admitted uuless they are
in full evening dress. Curiously

The Panama Canal in War.
The strategic value of the Panama
canal Is estimated to be equivalent to
a fleet of large battleships. This is
the conclusion of Dr. Cornish given
before the Royal Geographical society
in London. Taking the cost of the
canal at $500000000. which would only
build forty first class battleships now-
adays. the United States will have a
good bargain and be able to cover a
total' coast Hoe without any material
increase in her vessels. The canal will
double the sea efficiency of our fleet
for half the sum of money that would
otherwise be necessary to maintain
communication between the Pacific
and Atlantic coasts. National Maga-

ITS
FOR
FARMERS
.Draft Brood Mares.
The .first thing which the farmer
and future horse breeder must select
is his brood mares. These should be
selected primarily from the standpoint
of their being able to do the wort re-
quired of them. It would be a mistake
to select heavy draft mares for some
of the rough hill or mountain farms
and a greater mistake to try to do the
work on comparatively level farms
with light marcs llorse power is
cheaper than man power.
Maternity ruluer than beauty should
also be kept iu view. The best looking
mare is seldom .the best breeder Tlie
brood mare should have a room
somewhat loose construction rather
than the compact closely knit form
which is more attractive to the eye.
It is a general rule of breeding that
i-ompnetness should be sought in .the
male size iu the female. A partial ex
ception to this rule is in the produc-
tion of draft horses on the farm. Ex-
cessively heavy mares would be un
wieldy for general farm work. There
fore size is sought in the. sfalHou and
mares are chosen which are not too
large to be profitable workers but
large enough to mate consistently with
the stallion selected. Frofessor Thom-
as I. Mairs Before Pennsylvania Nor
mal Institute.
Color In Draft Horses.
This important matter is certainly
too littJe considered. It is all moon
shine to say that a good horse is nev-
er of a bad color and the old saw has
done harm enough and to spare; The
fady colored equine may possibly be
able to do as hard a day's work as the
black the brown or the dark chestnut
but it very likely may uot Fady col-
ors and delicate constitution go to-
gether very often while such shades
or blazing marks are never ndmlre'd
by the buyer. The dealer will not lw
long telling you about it if you have a
fady chestnut a piebald light gray or
cream colored horse to sell and cer-
tainly those firms that pay high figures
for their heavy lwses will not counte-
nance bad colors. Then upon the prir
eiple of holding every feature up to
top quality and missing no advantage
a farmer is foolish lo breed from pe-
culiar colored mares How many of
the' most promising fillies which will
make the best brood mares are sold
just berau?e they bring in a little ex
tra .money while the Inferior ones are
kept to become brood mares! W. It
Gilbert in National Stockman.
Feed Cows Liberally.
Remember it pays to feed a cow to
the limit of her capacity. It can be
safely depended upon that a cow
which receives only three-fourths of
a full ration wlil yield only one-half as
much milk as the same cow receiving
a full ration. The reason for this Is
that about 50 per cent of all the food
that a cow consumes is required for
her maintenance. The other half goes
to form milk. When we withhold one-
fourjh of the full allowance of feed
for a cow we are supplying only one-
half the amount of feed which Is ac
tual!
milk.
tally required for the production of
lilk. Yet I think that it Is safe to j
sav that at least ulne-tentns or our
dairymen fail to supply the final quar-
ter of the cow's ration. Always feed
a cow to her full capacity and this
means to supply feed as long as there
Is an economical response in milk. Of
course It would be perfectly useless to
feed a cow whose mill; production Is
limited to two gallons per day a four
gallon ration became the feed for the
two gallons would be wasted

to ask. "Whi'ii of your eyes cries?"

Effect' of Penny Postage.
The British postmaster general In
his annual report says; "The result
of penny postage with the United
States established In October. 1D08.
is an increase of about 25 per ceut
between the two countrle-s." During
the year 84825.000 telegrams passed
over the post-office wires a decrease
of 1.3 per cent;; owing to the increas
ing use of the telephone. Conversa
tions by telephone numbered 22.502.-
024. The year's postal revenue was
190.000000 and the expense of opera-
tion was $65000000. The net profit
was about $23500000. Telegraphs and
telephones earned $17500000 net a
decrease of about $1500000 from

A Word for the "Tight Wad."
In France they have an expressive
phrase "liquid money." It means
that part. of the family Income which
Is used for the necessities and luxuries
of life. It is quite apart from and
kept apart from the more serious
substantial part of the income which
Is. the saved ;nrt In America the
entire Income is "liquid."' and the
man who attempts to make part of it
solid is called a "tight Wad." A
"tight wad" Is really a man who cre-
ates a principal a capital in other
words and he is the living example
of what every private business must
be and of how the country's resources
should be handled.

English Rowing Race to Be Held Early.
The rowi.ug authorities at Oxford
and Cambridge universities have prac
tically decided upon rowing the annual
Oxford-Cambridge boat race easily
England's biggest aquatic event of the
season considerably earlier than usual
next spring. In fact the two univer
sities are about agree'd upon March 12
for the' race this being fully a month
In ndvance of last year's contest. The
reason why an earlier date Is consid
ered desirable this year Is the fact that
Raster comes unusually early. On Sat-
urday. March 12. it will be high water
at Putney at 3:20 which would give
the crews their race about 2.30 o'clock.
The nice last year was on April 3.
Syracuse Challenges Canadians.
The Argonaut Howing club .of To
ronto has received a challenge from
Syracuse university for races for four
oared and eight oared shells the con
tests to be held on Onondaga lake at
Syracuse on May 30. It Is probable
that the e-hallenge will be accepted.
This is the third time the Syracuse
oarsmen have issued such an Invita
tion to the Canadian club. A race was
held two years ago. and a meeting was
scheduled last year which for some
reason did not materialize. The event
is a gala day at the Salt City college
and a very pretty regatta occurs whe'n
the International race is rowed.

down Iu an apoplectic Ot Immediately
In front of a police station and was
carrteel inside. A moment after a wo-
man forced her way In through the
crowd gathered around the door ex-
claiming: "My husband! My poor husband
Clear the way and let In the alr!".
She then busied herself by taking
off the man's era vat and performing
other little ofllces until a surgeon ar-
rived when the patient gradually re
covered his senses. On this the ser
gca.nl iu charge observed that It was
a happy relief for his distressed wife
as wejll as for himself.
"My wife!" exclaimed the man
Why I nm n bachelor!"
On seeklug for the woman It was
found that she had disappeared and
with her the watch and purse of the
patient which she had adroitly ab

He was the. worst boy In school; she
was the teacher. She was angereel by

took him to the hall for punishment.
Angrily she administered the penalty
and -then somehow a great wave of
pity for the boy swept over her. She
looked nt the worn ceiat of the little
fallow She thought of the frail body
deprived of nourishing food. . She
thought of the hard and loveless home
and of the starved soul of the poor
kid.-
Tears sprang to the teacher's eyes
as theTVoy waited for further punish-
ment. Then he snw the tenrs. His

It is said that bargain hunters in the

To date none of them has been obliged
to put any one out of the game.
It is feared by their frieuds that

an extent that they will say "floor

the case may be. There "also is a
chance they will call everything "fair"
