Much has been said in newspa- pers of men who have made large tortunes in comparatively a tew years in various business industries. Many of these articles are written by correspondents of prommnent newspapers, and copied into others of lesser note. Correspondents gen - erally are seldom men of business qualifications and wrongtully picture these men and their business as a) thing of accident: this is not the | case with those we have met. We find that where men have made large fortunes by their own business talent and industry they chose with | sagacity and forethought such busi ness as would lead to success when | handled with business judgement. No man has been brought before | the public as an example ot success, | both in wealth and magnitude of his business (outside of stock and _ rail- ;road men) more promimentlv than | Dr. G. G.

It is not at all likely, however, that the trial will proceed tar betore the question ot jurisdiction is raised. Fotheringham was indicted for lar- ceny from a railroad train and can he tried in any county in which the offense was committed. When the State fails to show that the robbery was committed in St. Louis—and it 1s believed that they will—it is un derstood that Judge Normile will instruct the jury to acquit the deten- What will be done then is not known, but it seems to be the general belief in legal circles thot there will be no further prosecution , A Trivate to Journalists.

By following this plan we are not only able to more rapidly place ourselves in better stock but the same tme the , ° n Almost any one and let them take ves, or, on the other » we can feed them more thon they will eat, that is, if we have it on hand we ean easily place th» feed j where the stock ean eat it. But in either case we may be making a failure, One of the most importan things to | arn in managing stock is to know how to feed so as to secure the best growth at the lowest cost. This knowledge can acquire whether we are feeling connon scrub stock or the finest thoroughbreds. And the feeding and caring for the common stock in this way will give us often as great a profit in proportion as the best. We must learn that in order to secure the largest amount of profit it is neces- ry to feed an] care for common stock just as carefully as for the best. True, we ve not got the same amount of capital invested and we may not be able to secure as larze a profit as if we owned all blooled stock. Yet it is certainly fully as nec that we should secure as much profit as possi- ble and this can only be done by giv- ing the best feed anl care. It is not necessary that we shoull pamper or that we shoul 1 waste feed. To feed econ- | omically is to feed so that the best gain may be secured at the lowest cost. This is true with all kinds of stock, whether cattle, horses, sheep, he or poul'ry, and whether we are sing serubs or the best breeds. Get into the habit of giving the best of eare to all the stock on the farm. Ocherwise, even with costly stock you good attention at first, but if never formed the habit you are liable to get careless, and this often implies a more serious loss than if only common stock had been raised.
