The practice of turn- work animals out on Sundays to grass, to which they are unaccus- ed, is a prolific source of colic | other digestive disorders.

However, re the stables are hot and illy ven (67) Horses at Work Need a Ration With a High Percentage of Grain. Ulated it is preferable to expose the horses to digestive troubles on the pastures rather than to attempt to carry them in the barns. The feet of the work animals should be examined frequently during the summer, in order that accumula tions of dirt may be removed. A few moments devoted to scraping out the hoofs each morning and evening will add to the comfort of the beasts, as often such foreign materials as nails or stones lodge in the wall or sole of the foot or are collected In the clefts of the frog or between the bars and the frog. If the hoofs are excessive ly dry or brittle, they should be softened with some good oil or hoof ointment, and if they are ragged or tend to split, they should be rasped on the edges and trimmed until smooth. It is advisable to clip horses when the weather warms up in the spring and heavy work begins. When clip ped, they work much better, and they do not become chilled after work from having thoroughly soaked the heavy coat of winter hair with perspiration. Horses that are clipped as soon as heavy spring work begins should be blanketed at night. IN HIGH PLACES By Walt Mason. I have bought a grand piano and a sumptuous sedan, and a lot of other doodads, on the monthly payment plan. On each thing I paid a dollar, and 1’11 pay a month ly bone, till I'm laid away and sleeping underneath a sagging stone. It is true I didn't need them, and I haven't coin to burn, but I see my neighbors blowing every kopeck that they earn, and if they can have pianos and fine motors and such stuff, I will go as far as they do, though it makes the sledding tough. Every month I ll pay a dollar on the junk I do not need, till I limp around on crutches and my whiskers go to seed; and when I have crossed the river to the shining golden shore, I will still be owing money to the Jinx installment store. And 1 fear the recollection will destroy my peace of mind, when I have a harp before me and a pair of wings be hind. But my neighbors, they keep blowing every rouble, every red, and I'd be a sort of piker if I let them get ahead; so I’m buying cir cus wagons, and I’m buying costly gems, and my wife is wearing sables and has diamond diadems, and I bought the whole caboodle on the monthly payment plan, and I'm riding to the poorhouse in a super-eight sedan. —Copyright, 1919.

He began practicing thrift when he was 12 years of age, and he prac ticed it and wrote on it all his life. He became the richest man in Amer- lea in his day, richest not only in money but in health, brains, sanity, good cheer. influence. He was a scien- flat, a business man, a linguist, a diplo mat and a philosopher. He always paid his way. He founded the Univer sity of Pennsylvania, founded the first public library in America, organized an insurance company, pretty nearly cap tured the lightnings, invented spec tacles, manufactu. ed the first cook stove, went to France and borrowed money on which Washington fought the War of the Revolution and the basis of all the strength and excellence of Benjamin Franklin lay in the fact that very early in life he acquired the habit of thrift. "Thrift is a habit. A habit is a thing you do unconsciously or auto matically without thought. We are ruled by our habits. When habits are young they are like lion cubs, soft, fluffy funny frolicson little animals. They grow day by day. Eventually they rule you. Choose ye this day the habit ye would have rule over you. The habit of thrift is simpl; the habit which dictates that you shall earn more than you spend. In other words, thrift is the habit that provides that you spend less than you earn.

HERMISTON HERALD, 27,000.000 SMALL DEPOSITORS SAVE $10,573,971,000 HERMISTON, OREGON SUMMONS In the Circuit Court of the State of Oregon for Umatilla County. Earl L. Smith, Plaintiff, ve. Vivian 1 Smith. Defendant. To Vivian Smith. Defendant above named: In the name of the State of Ore gon, you are hereby required to ap- pear and answer the complaint of Report Made at the Bankers’ Convention Develops the plaintiff filed against you in the above entitled suit on or before Startling Figures. 8t. Louis, Mo—There are 27,000,000 savings bank depositors in the United States, according to figures published at the convention of the American Bankers' Association here. In com piling these figures d te allowance was made for duplications. Investigation by the bankers has proved that these savings bank depositors are, with few exceptions, people of small means, but they are the people who absorbed in large measure the war issues of government securities, Thrift and | War Savings Stamps, Savings Certifi cates and Liberty Bonds AND ARE KEEPING THEM. Not only did they buy and hold gov ernment securities, but those invest- ments led to additional savings, con- solldated the habit of thrift and in creased bank deposits throughout the entire nation. These 27,000,000 depos- itors now own $10,573,971,000 of sav ings. This is the money which has built up the railroads, municipalities homes and industries of the nation. These savings represent over twenty six per cent of the total resources. These savers financed the war successfully, and on their continuation of the pro duction of new capital through sav ings rests the solution for financing reconstruction and for the increase of production necessary to check the high cost of living, bankers agreed. The government savings securities and Liberty Bonds offer ideal means for the production of this new capital in the opinion of progressive bankers. They are adapted for investment of all sums'no matter how great or small. They are the safest security possible. They are profitable and readily con vertible Into cash should necessity arise. Their purchase not only aids in financing the government, but re leases correspondin; capital from the banks and financial institut.ons for expansion of industry and develop ment of production. The figures compiled by the Bank- ers' Association show that in the five- year period ending January 1 of this year, savings deposits In state banks inci eased 59.47 per cent; in mutual savings banks, 12.96 per cent; In I stock savings banks, 33.04 per cent; in , trust companies, 24.32 per cent, and in | national banks. 118.36 per cent. It also was announced that there were 35,000,000 policy holders in Lie insurance companies in the United States.
