Hints for Stock Owners. I
August Vann Journal.
It is sometimes hard to make good
butter in the dog days, but it is less
difficult when all the rank and bitter
weeds have been cut in the pasture
before the cow has had a chance to
eat them.
This is the dry month when
streams and springs lessen and some
times fail altogether. If dependence
is had upon water-holes, see to ' it
that the stock are not allowed ito
tramp in them, and on no account
allow them to drink from foul pools.
Now is the time to select the young
breeding stock.
See that all the hogs have plenty
of fresh, clean water to drink
especially during these hot, dry days.
It costs about $10 to keep a breed
ing sow a year. II ane gives you
two litters of eight pigs each year,
there should be a clear profit of at
east $20 from her, and you J have
your sow left in the bargain.
Stringy or ropy milk is caused
very otten by drinking stagnant
water.
Keep the stables and the yards
clean, so that flies and insects will
have no breeding places.
Keep the milking stable darkened
and screened, and spray the! cows
every day. It will pay in dollars and
cents. i
Try to arrange to give each i horse
on the farm a three weeks' vacation
on grass.
After a day's work clean the work
horses thoroughly, " wash their legs
from the knees down and rub dry.
Never dose a healthy horse. All
he needs is good care and good feed.
1 he good care includes, or course.
regular exercise. It is just as bad
for a horse to be all the time taking
medicine as it is for a man. Do not
do it.
If the horse flags, and his legs
become unsteady, -urtmten at onfieJ
put-cold water on his head and on
the back of his neck and rub with
coarse cloths. If near a drugs tore

Watering Horses.
E. JJWaterstrlpe, in Michigan Farmer.
Should not the horse be watered
at the proper time as well as be fed
at the proper time? Is not water as
important as food? We could not
retain life very long without water
If pure food is important then pure
water is essential also, there, is
nothing which counts, so much as
providing pure food and pure water
and proper methods of using it: for
ourselves and all animals.
I believe in giving water to horses
before feeding; I believe this is the
best plan for the horse to get the
most out of the food and water and
so practice it. 1 know from actual
experience that this is the best plan
tor man to follow, andtne stomacn
of a man and that of a horse are
both of : relatively small capacity
Give the horse water before feeding
and not until two hours atter, and
if you want the best health follow
this rule yourself. I know that, it is
not good to drink cold water Isoon
after eating. Many persons think
they must have it, but it is a. habit
and with a little practice you can do
without it and feel much better. --,
The contents of the stomach have
to be of a certain temperature, when
the process of digestion is going on,
and when the stomach has. begun to
work, and you drink cold water, or
give th2 horse cold water it will re
tard digestion' until the stomach re
gains its normal temperature. Af
ter about two hours the contents of
the stomach will be digested, and I
believe that between this time and
before the next meal plenty of water
should be had.
We want the best methods m car
ing for our horses in every way, for
the better care they have, the better
horses they will be. We should study
to feed our horses to give vitality
and health for, like man, he who
has health is able to work, but, the
wrecked body cannot do much. It
seems almost useless to say that the
water used for stock should be as

of debt-makimr. The Merchant
Association, of the city ot of Greens
boro, has a problem on its hands in
the form of some $20,000 of rmail ac
counts, mostly against church people
they say, which they cannot persude
the debtors to pay. As a last re
sort they have appealed to the Min
isterial Association of the city to
come to their help with some moral
suasion from their pulpiu. ' We pre
sume that the merchants of other
towns and cities have a similar prob
lem, but as yet we have r not heard
of. any of them resorting to this
unique plan of bringing the delin
quents to taw.;
It is alright to ue all legitimate
means to secure the payment of ac-!
counts long past due, and it is likely
that we need some legislation which
would help to bring these delinquents
to the scratch. However, there is
another side to the, question seldom
considered, and that is the facility
with which the average business
man can induce to people to get in
debt for things they do not need, or
things that they could and should do
without. There is a sin of debt
making, consequently one of our
good old Methodist rules forbids
borrowing without the probability
of paying, or taking up goods with
out a probability of paying for
them." Modern-day methods, of
business would suggest the amend
ment of this rule by one making it
an offense to use the thousand and
one slick methods of inducing people
to go in debt.
The privilege of credit is itself a
peril to the majority of people who
buy. Most of them really need a
guardian in this respect. They have
no sense of power of self-restraint
and soon become the unhappy vic
tims of a mania for buying. The
same is true oi tnem wnen iney
go with the cash into the place
where many wares are exposed for
sale, and especially where the so call
ed "bargain counter" ia in evidence.
For the time beincrthey are the help
less victims of a sirniliar mania for
buying, and the result is that they
fool awav their cash at these
counters, and let the grocery me r
chants go unpaid.
The best way for the merchants to
get out of their trouble is to adopt
the cash system, and thus banish for
ever the credit system and with it
the deadbeat. The fact is that
the wdit yatm ja very much .or a
delusion and a snare. It gets both
the buyer and the seller into trouble,
and costs very much more than the
trouble of it is worth. If the regu
lar merchants will unite in an effort
to establish the cash system, and at
the same time induce the legislature
to abolish the credit system on the
installment plan, it will be a boon to
our country more helpful than the
banishment of all pestilence and
plagues that ever afflicted the land
The history of a single suit of furni
ture or other article of household
goods handled on the installment
plan would be as interesting as the
tale of Robinson Crusoe, and some
times more pathetic than the story
of Naboth and the vineyard. Only
recently we listened to the story o
a sinele suit of furniture, sold to i
widow for $80. which she forfeited
after Davinir $70. i and which was
made to do similar service I on
smaller scale at least five times over, i
This may be an extreme case, but it
shows what possibilities there are
for the credit system from the stand
point of the one who sells, to say
nothing of the peril of it from J the
same standpoint or from the stand
point of the one who buys. Who
will be the Moses to lead Israel out
of the bondage and ruin of this
whole credit system?

We saw in a paper recently the
gUt cf a conversation betwwn : a
Methodic and a l'reby tcrian man
at the recent international Sunday
School Convention, in hkh sur
prise was exprerd that neither of
their denominations couM produce
such men as John A. Broadus and
George W. Truett, and the cone lukn
was reached that the reason fur the
failure to raise up such giants was
in the system of the two denomina
tions. The quotation wa from a
Baptist paper, of course. It is the
veriest rot. j Such scandalous state
ments discredit the intelligence of the
paper in which it appears. These
two men are unworthy of a place in !
their churches, if they are correctly
quoted, because they are disloyal.
If it were true, they were traitors to
run to the editor of the Baptut paper
with it. The front yard is not the

there is not a word of truth in it.
The different church governments
have nothing on earth to do with the
brain and ' heart power the Lord
gives a man. No denomination has
monopoly on ministerial talent
We heard of a man who adviaed a
certain president of a State school
to invite only the preachers of his
own denomination to preach on com
mencement occasions, as there were
no big preachers in any other denom
ination. The man who said this

and a man who asserts it is only

the world every time he makes so
foolish a claim. There are great
men in all denominations, and none
of us have a monopoly on mental or
moral manhood. i
