When after thirteen months of fighting in Italy, Napoleon took up his headquarters at the castle of I Montebello near Milan where he as- 1 burned the airs of a monarch, a rigid etiquette prevailed. His officers were no longer received at his table. He even arranged things so that the inhabitants of the country . might gaze upon him at a respectable distance when he dined. His frown made men tremble. • Everything about him rmHgfed power, yet all this time he did not have enough power, nor influence, nor courage to drive a little yapping dog that he hated s very much, out of his wife’s room because the dog was her favorite, and Mr» Napoleon at that time was afraid of his wife. Life is the same today as it always has been. Men attempt to evade the commonplace category are on a par with other men, and seek a realm where they can dominate either by superiority or bluffing. The time you have a quaking, feeling in your boots at the presence of some personality, whether president of , the United States or a lowly bootblack, just remember that we are all brothers in that great fraternity, “The Waterloo.** 0 A young, pretty school teacher who taught school in a rural district several years ago, inaugurated a new cure for tardiness at this time. She offered a kiss to the first arrival each moaning. The next morning, at five o’clock, three young men were seen Sitting on the schoolhouse steps, and by six all the bbys of the school and two members of the school board had put in an appearance. .... ——4( A lot of these modern politicians talk like they were equipped with free wheeling.

TRIMMING FEET IMPORTANT FOR GROWING COLTS The colt that does not need its feet trimmed some time during its life is an exception, according to P. T. Brown, of the Purdue University animal husbandry department. The most successful horsemen make a practice of trimming colts* feet every month or six weeks,” especially during the first year. . Brown points out that unlimited outdoor exercise helps keep the feet worn short, for that is Nature’s way of taking care of the excess growth of hoof. However, all colts do not wear off their hoofs evenly and this results in various malformations which may hinder development and lessen Jhe colt’s value and future usefulness. In order to supplement Nature, the horseman must be ready with his pincers and rasp. Brown advises studying each foot carefully as the i colt stands in natural position. Then ’ pick up the foot and try to level it ' by lowering the high part, using the pincers to remove the bulk of growth and the rasp to smooth up the job, ; The old chisel-and-mallet method of trimming feet is not satisfactory because it does not level the foot or change the angle of the hoof. Among the conditions that may need attention, Brown lists the following: 1. Long toes. This condition .causes/splits to develop in the walls of either front or rear hofs. It often causes the rear ankles to cock forward. Shortening them down even with the soles will stop the splits and remedy the cocked ankles. 2. High heel corners. This is most common on hind feet and leads to a narrowing or contracting of the heels. Lowering the heels .and letting the weight rest on the frogs and widen the heels. Remember that the frog is the colt’s “rubber heel” and should .carry most of the weight. .3. Foot too long on inside wall. This causes what is known as<‘pigeon toe” on the front feet. When present on hind feet, it causes the horse to stand or walk with his hocks too far apart. Pinch off the inside wall of the foot until it is level with the outside wall. In very bad cases, it is necessary to shoe the foot to allow the worn side to grow out. 4. Foot too long on outside wall. I This is found on the front feet of ■ splay footed or “nigger heeled” colts and is hard to correct. Such colts are inclined to interfere. The bestyou can do is to keep the outside wall shortened. 5. Thrush. This condition is caus- j ed by bacterial infection in the 1 crevices around the frog and in the [

cleft of the heel and is often found in feet that have contracted at the heels. Ordinary casee can be cured by paring away the infected area until the seat of infection is reached and than applying pine tar or full strength coal tar dip. Well bred and properly developed colts are high priced and much in demand. Such a colt deserves the three fundamentals of colt development which are: (1) Liberal and proper feeding, (2) Unlimited outdoor exercise, and (3) Regular foot trimming. 0 Stomp Act England’s Moat Important Revenue Order Probably the most .Important tax measure ever enacted was the Stamp Aet of 1765, passed by the English parliament, for raising revenue In the American colonies. It was this act which crystallized growing discontent, finally resulting liP the American ■Revolution and changing the course of the history of English-speaking peoples. The idea of revenue stamps was not new. These had first been introduced in England In the reign of William and Mary about 1695 and had been In use ever since. The stamps for documents were attached to sheets of vellum which the commissioner sold at rates specified and which could be used either to contain the written instrument or attached as a jacket The stamps were embossed impressions on small pieces of cardboard colored differently for each denomination and were attached to the vellum by lead staples with the ends clinched over each other before the Impression was. applied. The staigp was then made by a machine simp&r to seal presses of today vyhich impressed the design on the/cardboard, lead fastening atid-veilum at the same operation, a Newspaper and book stamps were printed in sheets 1 to be cut apart and attached in a manner to those on documents but without the use of the embossed design. The lead staples were used as the easiest means of attaching, as gum had not been thought of at the time. > The stamps for the colonies were duplicates of those in use in England except that the word "America” was added at the top. Few, if any, were ever actually used on this side, owing to the disturbances on their arrival, and such of the remainder as escaped destruction were returned to England where the “America” was clipped off and the stamps mixed into the regular English stock to be distributed as required. The wet wave of 1932 and 1933 is receding and even now a few dry ■ landmarks are noticeable. If bootlegging and Ijquor profiteering continue the dry spots will be visible to the naked eye before another year.

Model Farm House of the Future ~77*Jt ItV a ! m ■S&L. ‘ : : ■ TLLUBTRATING the changes in American living conditions, this model farm house erected by The Country Home, a national farm magazine, attracts much attention at the World’s Fair in Chicago. It is in a beautifully landscaped lot adjoining the dairy exhibits. New ideas are embodied in its construction. which is of brick, steel and “concrete. The lower floor contains living room, kitchen, laundry, wash room, farm office, work shop and two-car garage. upper floor has four bedrooms and bath, plus a “roof deck” over the entire garage. The brick used is reinforced with "'steel rods, precast in panels, / and set in place much as the so-called fabricated houses are built. The house is fireproof and can be built for less than $5,000. As shown at the World’s Fair, it is completely equipped with all modern improvements. The house has no cellar, its architects maintaining that a cellar is obsolete and expensive;

PREVENT CHOLERA SERUM “BREAKS” LAFAYETTE, Ind.——Hogs that sicken or “break” with cholera soon after they are vaccinated elimiate the virus and may start an outbreak of hog cholera in the community, according to Dr. R! A. Craig, of the Purdue University Agricultural Experiment Station. These “serum breaks” usually occur if the dose of serum is ico small oi the pigs are unthrifty and o>se;sed at the time they are vaccina‘.vd.

largely of providing good quarters when the weather is wet and cool, or extremely hot, and reducing the grain ration at least one-half for a well herd that has ordinarily been fed all that it can eat. It is advisable to take away all grain and slop twelve hours before yccinat|ng the herd. Many veterinarians revisit the herd, note its condition, and make whatever recommendations , are necessary. Dr. Craig points out that vaccination is not merely a mechanical operation in the hands of a veternarian who has as his main object the control of hog cholera. The reason those Japanese cherry trees- at Washington are so popular with the youngsters is that there is no cherry picking do after the i blossoms fade. •
