SCIENTIFIC HORSE BREEDING By Frank B. Graham, Kansas City Missouri, in Rural Spirit. ' . The first thing necessary in study ing horse breeding is to get a fair knowledge of the anatomy of the male and female organs. ' Learning the. names, functions and locations of parts is easy. A little time will make the average breeder very proficient in this direction. I have heard breeders say they could not learn, those. big names. : But they are mistaken. ; Any breeder can accomplish this if he will only give it the proper application. Without this information the breeder is not in a position to read intelli gently or to give satisfactory reasons for carrying on experiments... : It' may ' not be' generally known, but a great many stallion and jack owners, even some .who have been in the business a great many years, open the mouth of the bladder in stead of the cervix when they "open a mare." . When a mare is opened the hand which-is used in that pro cess should be washed with soap and water and rinsed in sterilized water so that the operator; will not carry any infection into the uterus. The uterus of a mare is a peculiar organ; in many cases it has a cavity from two to four inches deeper than the os uteri. Excepting through absorp tion, there is no way that infection bearing matter can escape from the Uterus ' but to drain through" the' os uteri.' Then if infection is intro duced into the uterus the fluid mat ter may be a considerable depth be fore it can escape. The uterus of a mare is one of the test mediums in which to grow bacteria. It is ' not unusual to see a stallion or jack owner have a bucket 'of lard or other grease in which his hand is immersed . before being inserted into the vagina. with one finger into the uterus. Others have used soap. All of these agents are "injurious. Other breeders believe that it is necessary to insert two or three hngers into tne cervix in order to open a mare sufficiently some of them insert four "fingers. This manipulation creates an irrita tion which is responsible for many mares not fertilizing. , One finger is sufficient in a case of this kind. More mares are made barren, tempor arily through the opening process, under the average management, than are ever benefited. It is necessary occasionally to open the cervix be fore a mare is served. A careful estimate of the mares in this country that, have raised colts to weaning age is one mare out of each three bred. This is a remark able condition. There are many fac tors at work in this process. In all other civilized nations breeders charge a part of the service fees at the time of service, so that most of the shy breeding mares are not bred. But in the United States the "stand and suck" custom invites all mares to be served regardless of their dis eased condition. This custom is so well established that I do not be lieve it advisable to try to make any change, for it would , only make a harvest for the inferior Bire. The country is full of stallions that would not even make good geldings, whose owners are willing to guarantee ten colt old enough to work before the service fee becomes due.

I The Answer is found in the Stright ! forward Statement of a Union Resident. We have been reading week after week in the local press of La Grande citizens who have been rid of distress ing kidney and bladder troubles by Doan's Kidney Pills, and we have of ten wondered whether the same high opinion of this medicine is to be found in our "neighboring towns. This frank, and earnest statement by a well-known and respected resident of Union will set this doubt at rest Thomas Brasher, real estate dealer and receiver for Overton Lumber Co., Union, Ore., says: "I suffered from weakness of the kidneys and didn't reBt well. After using Doan's Kid ney Pills a short time, the kidney ac tion was regulated. ' I gladly confirm the testimonial I gave for Doan's Kidney Pill in May, 1910." v For sale by all dealers.

But, oh verily it was an interesting game. Mountain got up from a sickbed and tiied to pitch for the greatest and craziest gathering of 1500 f -ins that La Grande has ever seen, m.d he was 0 smoky that he fanned the first man bp, then went-weak and to top the mttter off threw wild to .the r-iate to catth the first of a cinch double play. H! got into deeper water on the next bntiiT and went back to th? bench, Jamison taking, the helm with the bases full. He wormed himself out and went good until the third when he developed a streak of March hare ities and only after three had crossed the plate did he strike his pace again. Nadeau grabbed a liner in the seventh a ...Vtinno) tVio: nlskv back to third auu v j i v v. n v..- x-. ' to get Engle, taking Jamison out of ' another deep well in which the gorig ' rang once nevertheless. Otherwise he had the Braves tame and docue. Jun gle tried to start something in the ninth but two pinch hitters went by the way of the plate and back to the bench. Jamison's backing was such that when an error meant a run, the error was forthcoming. The smiling southpaw is entitled to heaps of cred it for taking the ship in floundering condition and sailing her safe into port with, his own crew nervous and failing in the pinches frequently. ' Engle lasted for six innings and in that time got a' thorough trouncing with hits, boneheaded and unlucky baserunning by the Spuds alone sav ing him from more runs true, Reid saved his bacon to the extent of two runs by grabbing a marvelous stab and doubling at second. King was the hitting demon but one musn't over look Nadeau, Naughton, Corbin and Fuller. The greatest crowd of baseball fans in the city's history packed the grand stand two thirds fill. About 1500 were out It will be a long time un til a local crowd witnesses a game with the interest attached and the cowbells sold out long before the abbreviated parade started got plen ty of use out of them. If any two teams can mix up more hitting, more double plays, more errors, better pitching and worse pitching all in the same soup and call it a ball game, let's heaj- from them. At flashes, some brilliant ball was reeled off on the heels of said flashes came the oth er thing that makes baseball what it is, and probably not a soul in the bunch would have been better pleased if it had been a one-nothing game. Kile's style was such that it por tends trouble for teams that face him. Though his manager lost the game, the youngster went fine. He has the stuff that makes for good ball games. Naughton's injury marred the game slightly but it is not believed it will retard his work much in the fu ture. He was going good at second and had just connected for his second wallop when he sprained his , knee worming through a gathering of four at the initial bag trying to put him out.
