Among the multitudinous duties that fall on the mother of a healthy bay f two, three, four or even eight years Is tbe matter of keeping him away Jiom automobiles and teaching hltn proper fright of tbe machine. Every driver of an automobile knows how -the cold chills too down bis buck when some saury youngster gets out In front of an approaching autoiuo tlle and defies tbe driver to run over Jdm. About the time the driver be lieves the youngster Is no bluffer, and turns aside, about that time, the lad's courage falls and be, too, ecoots to a Ide, probably the same one tbe Irlver took. There are a hundred and one oon.lngencies that may arise, and the sure cure is a red hot spanking over aoamma's knee. Only yesterday a lo cal driver met two such con'Htlo-io on tbe way to- Riverside, and b Jaek knlitd his automobile to get out of the way from a boy in the center of i'ic ireel. The moment he turned the toy fled and the emergency brako alone saved a boy that by rights hould be smarting under the ating of tome good mother's palm. If boys were taught at home that there la ex . treat e danger in this sort of a. thing, relief would immediately exert Itself, j ' OCR WiMiK HORSES.

I Meanwhile bis plebian brother, the truck borse, who drags the wheat from the mill over the dusty roads for your children to eat rarely gets any sugar plums nor does be figure In verse. His gentle nature) bis calm philosophy, as be submits to the blundering and Jer ky driving of the raw farm band, save many a farmer's freightage from laborious disaster, tut tbey never cre ate bin) any standing In literature. The admiration and friendship of humans for the equine world has all gone to speed."-The vast machinery of the race course has glviw as Its excuse for being, that it tends to improve the breed of horses.' It produces a tribe of speeders,, who protect the vanity of the driver ''who will take no man's dust." But it offers no help to the farmer or truck man who must have a creature with a calm, unexcitable temperament, that shall, not waste its strength by jerky false motions, and its nerve force in balky frenzy It is significant of this neglect that a few years ago the New Jersey live stock commission, setting out to Im prove the breed of draft horses in that state, found that1 It must go abroad to get the finest strains of blood. They had to Import Percherons from Nor mandy, Clydesdales and English hack neys from Scotland, and coach horses from England. Too many drivers are careless ot tbe comfort of these great patient ox like creatures who so cheerfully do tbe bard toll of the equine world while frisky steeds of more fancy build are pulling little playcarts over the smooth roads. How often, you see a workman leaving a fcam of horses tied, out hour after hour In the hot sun! How would you like It?
