PONIES FOR THE CHILDREN. â€" Mr. Carlyle said that, upon one of his early visits to the ranch, the mrince asked how the children in the anye sections got to school. He was {ormed that horseback was the usual means of conveyance. He asked what nd of horses were used. He was told that most any kind of a horse, usually the worst on the ranch. Therefore, he introduced the Dartmouth pony from England. He now has quite a few of this sturdy type, which is acclimating very well; and it is his hope that soon other ranchers will try to raise them. The writer can attest to the fact that tho children use horses. Those who could just todd‘e seemed accustomed to handling horses. The disadvantage of the pony, it seems, would be that a half dozen children could not ride it at once, as they do the horses. One of the prince‘s reasons for buyâ€" ing this ranch was to encourage the raising of better live stock in the range country. For this purpose he has imported some of the finest stock in Eng‘land. His Shorthorn herd is headed by King of the Fairies, one of the best bul‘s of England, which beâ€" longs to King George. The prince wanted to buy this bull from "dad," but "dad" wou‘d not sell under any condition, but he did loan it for a litt‘e while. "Will Somers," a stalâ€" lion of great renown, especial.y in Great Britain, can also be found in the prince‘s barns at the ranch. THREE TYPES OF WEST.

Why not? Yearsâ€"ago the writer ran across this sentiment on a picture card in a litt‘e old country store: "Did it ever occur to you that a man wou‘ld rather have fruit when he is sick than flowers when he is dead?" Probably it would not be possible for our fruit growers to start a camâ€" paign along the lines of the flower One of the cheapest and most nuâ€" tritious dog feeds is a composition of cottonâ€"seed meal, corn meal and moâ€" lasses. To ten parts of corn meal add one part of cottonâ€"seed meal. Mix the two into a batter with cheap mo‘asses and cook brown. This has proved to be a more preferable feed than meat, and the dogs will be less subject to worm infection. Where cottonâ€"seed meal cannot be secured, make the dough of corn meal, mixed with oneâ€" third molasses and twoâ€"thirds millk. Buildogs were kept on the ration of cottonâ€"seed meal, corn meal and moâ€" lasses from the time that they weaned until they reached maturity, and they thrived we‘l. The three clements conâ€" tain a balanced ration and the mixed composition seems to give igor and quick growth to the canines. The next question that entered his mind was how should he greet this honorabe person who was manipulatâ€" ing such a delicate instrument as a manure fork. Dan didn‘t really know whether he should offer his hand first, or wait for the prince to do it. But before he know it, he and the pritice got close enough to say "How do you do," and due to his own confusion, he can‘t tell to this day whether ha was first to stick out his hand, or the prince. Anyhow, Dan says that the prince is a real fellow. a few others, Dan went to the barn. At the door, the others stood back, but motioned Dam forward. He didn‘t know just what he was getting into, because this meeting a"prince busiâ€" ness was something new to him. He looked around and saw two fellows working. He gave a look of inquiry to those at the door; they motioned him on. He bravely advanced, saw one fellow cleaning out a stall and another in the manure cart. Still closer, he recognized the prince in an old overall suit, with a manure fork, cleaning out the stall. paign along the lines of the flower men with "Say it with Fruit" as a s‘ogan. Perhaps it would not be a nice thing to do, even though it did convey a complimentâ€"to the flower flolks by copfing them. And possibly it may not even be desirable.

Mother Nature had no towel to dry with like Little Bow used, so she sent March Wind to blow the Big Rain away and dry the little trees again, and the March Wind sang, "Whoâ€"co I‘ll dry youâ€"oo!" Soon the song of the March Wind soothed Little Boy and he was just going to sleep again when he heard another song: "Milkâ€" stop! ClHcketyâ€" clock!" The horses‘ feet sang that song as they clattered along on the pavement. Then "Clinkâ€"clink! Mikâ€" toâ€"drink!" sang the bottles as they landed on the porch steps. Little Boy sat up. "That‘s our milk man! I haven‘t seen him in the mornings for a long time. He comes while it‘s dark now." Little Boy listened to the horses‘ feet sing, "Clicketyâ€"clock! Milkâ€"stop!

As Paul "reasoned of morality, selfâ€" discipiine, and future‘ jud?ément," Felix literally shook in his shoes. He had never lived a moral life, he had never accepted discipline of any kind, and what now awaited him, if Paul‘s words were true, except "a certain fearfulâ€" lookingâ€"for of judgment"?

"Why that‘s just like my engine story," thought Little Boy. "It‘s like the lazy, old engine that said, ‘Doneenough!‘ when the Trainâ€"ofâ€"cars asked it to help.

The Litt‘s Birds in the tree outside Litte Boy‘s window took their heads out from under their wings and woke up.

In Wales the situation is quite difâ€" ferent. The farmers in that country have not yet destroyed their barberry bushes. W. H. Broadbent, of the Minâ€" istry of Agriculture, investigated the situation in three counties in 1920. In one ‘of them he found barberries on sgixty farms out of the 100 which he visited. In another county he found bushes on thirty farms out of the forty which he visited. In the third county, in which a systematic search A representative of the United States Dept. of Agriculture traveled many miles in various parts of Engâ€" land and found no trace of black stem rust, except near three barberry bushes which were located by an eminâ€" ent English scientist. In Scotland was not made, he found barberry bushes in fourteen parishes. In this county he found one hedge 100 yards long and another about thirty yards long. Furthermore, in theso three counties he found seventyâ€"four outâ€" breaks of rust, and in every case barberry bushes were near the fie‘lds. the only stem rust which coul:d be found was near some barberry bushes in a hawthorn hedge. Near the bushes the rust was abundant; elsewhere there was none. British agriculturâ€" ists state that black rust is practically unknown in England and Scotland, except near barberry bushes.

One way to build up the faith of the general farmer in the purebred business is for the breed associations In the grain growing districts of Wales the responsibility of the barâ€" berry bushes for rust outbreaks is abâ€" solutely cear. The farmers are beâ€" ginning to realize this, and they no doubt will stop the rust by killing the bushes, as the Engish have already done. It is a high tribute to the good sense of the English farmers that they eradicated the barborry, even withâ€" out the aid of the law. They were among the first to realize the destrucâ€" tive effect of this worse than worthâ€" less bush. They preferred to destroy barberries rather than to permit the barberries to destroy their grain, and they have their reward. They no longer fear the dreaded black stom rust. They have prevented it by digâ€" ging their barberry bushes. Other countries of Europe have had equally good results.
