CURING GREEN HIDEs.-A great many

CURING GREEN H1DEs.-A great many
butchers, wool dealers, &C., are purchasers
of the hides off the beef in the country towns,
and we often get from them inquiries as to
the most proper and profitable method OF
curing the hide and preparing it for mark
ct. A great many butchers do not use
proper care in this branch, and the conse-
auence is that the hides will not pass city
inspection, owing entirely to the ignorance
and carelessness Of persons preparing them
for market. The proper way to salt hides
is to lay them out fiat, flesh side up, and
form a nearly square bed, say ~ by Is
feet, folding in the edges so as to make
them as nearly solid as possible. Split the
ear in the cords that run up the ear in
each one, so as to make them lie out aat.
Sprinkle the hide with two or three shovel
fuls of coarse salt, as the size may require
say for sixty to eighty pound hide,
from ten to fifteen pounds of salt. At any
rate cover the hide well, as it need not be
wasted; then let them lie in this form
12 to 90 days, after which take them up,
shake the salt out aud use it again.

TAKING A DISLIKE.

An ill-natured fellow quarrelled with hls
sweetheart on the day they were to be mar
ried. After the ceremony had begun M
was asked:
.sDo you take this woman to be you
welded wife, etc.
He replied, emo" :.
"What is the reason ?" asked the minis
ter. :,
sI,ve taken dislike to her, and that's
enough" was the surly reply.
The parties retired-the bride in tears
and, after much persuasion, the groom wa
induced to have the marriage proceed. L
was now the lady's turn, and when the MIN
lister asked the all-important question,
'sNo!" said she, resolutely, GIVE taker
q dislike to him."
The groom, admiring her spunk, made
up with her as soon as possible, and thlrc
time they presented themselves before tht
minister, who began the ceremony by ask
ing the usual questions, which were salts
factorily answered this time. But to the
astonishment of the party the minister con
tinued:
ssWsll, I'm glad to hear that you arr

wife, for it is good thing to be of forrglv
ing tempers. You can 60 now and ge

HORSE.SENSE.

A horses sense is good common sense.
Many man does not know half so much
about some things as horse, and there is
great difference in horses. The horse is not
naturally suspicious, but he is timid when
young. He learns very soon what his wea-
pons are-teeth and heels a. / in what
his security ies-fight. His boldness and
!:'the glory of his nostrils" come when she
reioiceth in his strength" With his age
comes the knowledge of his powers, and if
he has never been mastered-never made
to yield to any will but his own-if he is to
be made useful, the struggle must come
sooner or later, and mans will or horse-will
must triumph. We think it is best to be-
gin quite young with colts to control them.
So I advise to halter colt while it runs with
the mare, and to do it after feeding it with
carrots and sugar, until it thinks it will get
only caressing from mankind, and has no
fear of any man. The colt submits easily,
because it is the easiest and pleasantest
thing he can do, provided he is not fright
ened, and would as lief be led as to run
loose if the curtailment of his freedom is
made up by sweets or carrots. The sense
of smell in horses is very acute, and if they
are suspicious of anything they always ap-
proach it cautiously and smell of it: They
should be indulged in this, and harness,
saddle, etc., should all be Investigated by
the nose as well as by the eye, before more
intimate acquaintance is forced upon The
horse. A horse ring of 40 to so feet diam
ter is one of the greatest aids a horse trainer
can have. In this a horse. too restive and
spirited to take lesson may be tired out,
SO as to be very docile, and tired horse is
much more susceptible to favors and in.
struction than one full of vims, and fire and
play,

New WAY TO MAKE HORSES DRAW
A team of two horses, hitched to a wagon
heavily loaded with wood, stalled at hill
near the city recently, and all the whipping
and beating by the driver could not induce
them to bulge peg. Just as the Jehu was
about to give up the contest in despair, an
old country negro came up to the horses:
slipped the brides from their heads, patted
them few times on the neck, with his hand,
and then giving the word, the animals NOV
ed off with apparent ease and cheerfulness
and no further difficulty occurred during
the ascent of the hill. The old darkey sta
ted that he had driven many balky horses
in his day, and had never known his simple
plan of inducing them to draw faithfully
to fail.-Colunsbia Pheniy.

HORSES THAT OvERREACH.

We commend the following to horseshoe
ers generally. 1t is from the Prairie Far
mer, Chicago, and is worthy the attention
of every blacksmith who attempts to shoe
horses. The reasons given for the method
of shoeing recommended to prevent horses
from overreaching, We consider scientiical.
ly correct:
81 believe there are but few blacksmiths
that know how to shoe horses that overreach,
and some that do not seem willing to learn
Others think again that there is no better
remedy than making the shoes shorter.
and placing the forward one on the toe, and
the hinder one on the heel of the horse
They need to understand that there is q
better way, and horse owners should make
a note of it. A Western correspondent
gives the following rule, which think is a
very good one: Make the forward shoes
long, and the toe-calks short and standing
little under and set them as far back as
convenient, in order to let the feet roll over
as soon as possible, to get out Of the way
And in setting the shoes on the hind feet
reverse the order to keep them back, tc
give time for the forward feet to get out ot
the way. Make the toe-calks high, and the
half-calks low, to keep the feet back, then
he will travel like other horses. This may
be remedied in part in the mode of pairing
the hoof. This is essential in all cases, anc
where too many horses have been made Grip
Piles. Great pains should be taken at times
in shoeing horses, and believe not too
many of our blacksmiths fully understand
making the shoe and pairing the hoof.
