The Gold Feiich. , It is no more to be expected that the {great toiling masses can be thinkers ‘tha 11 that the serfs of Russia or tlzo lowâ€" -cr caste of India can be thinkers. But there are hundreds of thousands who have had their mental faculties agitated and quickcned, and from these will come thinkers. That they do not think is net a faultâ€"rit is a misfortune. Iiut I was just meditating what would be thc‘o'ut- come if._these millions of wage slave: could get agiimpse of the real character -ot‘ gold and silver, and compare it with it .e insane, idiotic popular‘conception oi ‘ hose fetich gods 2’ What would be the condition of that people or nation that had millions of tons of gold and silver, . and had no houses, no clothing, no food and no In :chinery of industry? l’oor be- yond the conception of anything the _ ‘world has (.vcr had.

It is the merest idiocy for men to spend 1' their lives and energy in digging up a ‘worthless yellow metal out of the moun- "1’ains, and then having another set of 21111311 making granite and steel vaults to hold it, and not using it at all. If you will consider this view of the matter you will certainly see the absurdity of it.

This is especially true of the :stallion. . When the more is at work the colt should be kept in the ham or lot. It is ibettcr not to letit Buckle until she has mmled off. Watering the first thing in the mom- ‘ling and the last thing at night is a good practice. If a horse is fidgety and nervo'us and days back his ears while being har- «znessed, there is a reason for his con- «luct. It is more than likely that he has been frightened or abused by his former caretaker. Continual kindness .will in most instances effect a cure. Among the most important things in Iliorse training is to cultivate a good (lispositon. It adds very much to the Walue and usefulness of. a horse. Does the collar fit perfectly? You "know, a horse may be ruined by an ill fitting collar. It matters little whether the horse is ‘to be a trotter, a roadster or a draft “horse, the treatment of the colt for the first year’s feed is about the same. The best growth comes from the feed and 'care. ‘* It is easier to keep a horse in shape "than to make him well after he once succumbs to disease. You can’t harden a horse by making shim endure hardship. ,The well bred, P‘Well kept horse is best. ‘ Horses are classed as drafters when :they Weigh tron) 1,000 to 2,000 pounds; 'chunks, 1.300 to 1.500; expressers, about the same; carriage horses and roadsters, 1,000 to 1,200 pounds. Do not teach the colts bad habits. "What seems cmc today may be vicious in a few months. However good the pasture, colts will do better the second year if they have a small ration of grain.
