AUCTIONS. H. MATSON AND CO. Jt A T S O X »nd < VALUE OF STOCK LICKS. WARNING TO STOCKOWNERS.* Cheap advice to stockownera to prepare their own stock licks evidently hai appealed to lorat stockowueri, who have put cheapcess before the real value of the scientifically n.ade stock licks. And it seems some of them are now realising that they ore uo bstter qualified to prepare licks for their stock than they aro of dispensing physic for thems^ivcs. Stockovrners in South Africa are now being earned against the falso economy c. homemade stock licks, which are 'the dearest in the long run." A writer in the "Farmers' Supplement ni the "Sunday Tines," printed ut Jotacnesbur?, elates: — •'lt U uet the cheapest of stock food 'rom a price point of view that is really tho best and cheapest in the long run.

OCR OV'N* DOORSTEP. '•J: everyone sv.-ept his era doorstop tiis> City would bo clean." ■ There is a fine fhvour about this old Chinese proverb. Its wiadoni was never mora needed than now. There is a craze at the moment for sweepins other people's doorsteps, for getting the ent to sweep all the doorsteps, to inspectors to see that in the interest* of the common weal all doorsteps are swept—by somebody else. It is often forgotten that theso activities on other people's doorsteps, the cumbrous interferences by the State, the inspections by men in uniform, may be the taking over irom tho individual duties which he ought to perforin himself, which he couid and should perform better than anyone elße. A Government pays a deplorable, price (or a cleaner City when it render* Us citizens unfit to sweep their own doorsteps. \ei that in the price paid when paternalism ana srandmotherfineM and Interference begin to flourish.

H. MATSON and CO. IP INSPIRATION COMES. day."" Said one: "How are you doing t these hard times?" The other replied: 1 don't »eem to be able to do anything, l eaa'l get inspiration." ■ . Jew days pass but you will hear, something similar. "I'm not in the mood for work to-day," aonte yonng fellow will announce wnen he reaches the office, and forthwith P«P?"» to P nt ,n , •■ "'£ a"?*'? a poselM*. "This is one of my off days, a young womnn will say when some piece of careless work is pointed out to her, and think It both an explanation and an excuse. This enlt of the mood, thia waiting tor "inspiration,* * appears to be one of the most fashionable forme of self-indulgence at tha moment. An experience seems to be.not worth having unless yon "get a *«»». "get a kick" out of it. Work is not strenuously undertaken unless you feel llk Most of this talk is because of Usinesß. It used to be regarded as the privilege of poets to wait for inspiration, but it always was a privilege exercised chiefly by minor poets. The great artists have worked as hard and as'regularly at their arts as any accountant at his figures or any carpenter at his bench. . , ~, . 1u There is certainly no room for this talk in the industry, the commerce, the profession of 1980. gHEEI" DIP. FOOT ROT TONICS. Now is tho timb to get this attended to. All farmers know that a cure one year may not be em cacious the next year. At the present time we are marketing an article that under our own supervision we have proved over a period of several years to be a wonderful tone, and can be used with very little trouble, either on a small or big flock, and is largely used by big flock-owners in Australia. H. MAT&ON and CO. You do not get,lnspiration by sitting waiting for it. You do not hasten the mood for work by indulging the mood of idleness. In our experience, inspiration is rather lo be regarded as-the reward of work than the preliminary of it. It Is common among those who criticise and denounce what they call "modern oivilisation" to talk as if the regularity of organised business were a kind of slavery. They talk of it as the acme of servitude that a man should have to be at his desk every morning at nine and not leave it before six But those who have watched life and work with impartial eyes have found this regularity to be more often a salvation than a burden. There is inspiration in the very regular ity of it. The rhythm of it penetrates tern perament. Many a man sets out from home perhape feeling slack and Indifferent and uninspired, but when he has been a few momenta at his accustomed place he feels his interest quickening, his observation becoming more tent*, hit will towards efficiency gathering force, till once again it dominates him through and through and fills him with the pleasure Of effort. Talk about moods and inspiration should be kept for a man's hobby, not for his dsy's work—for his golf and his bridge, not for hit profession. Even then It strikes as savouring more of weakness than of strength Oar view In this firm is that work Is a happy duty—a duty does not wait for moods—-that work Is essential to health and the joy of life, and these are the conditions of Inspiration. I4t a man set about his job with all bis heart and Inspiration will come sooner, much *»«*•*, than he expects. B. MATSON and CO.
