Grass for Horses.

Many persons think that horses that are
kept in the stable oil summer should not be
allowed to eat grass, They think it will
make the horse soft, wishy-washy, and that
it will throw him out of condition for hard
work. This is particularly the case with
some OF the trainers OF trotting aud running
horses. And horses that are kept up for
farm and other work ave refused grass be.
cause their drivers thmk they will not ept
hay so well. This was formerly the case
more than it is now. But these are AL
erroneous opinions and practices, aud are
giving way, gradually, to more reasonable
and natural system OF feeding.
Grass is the natural teed for the horse
1t is cooling aud healthinl food, 1t keeps
tho bowels open aud shirpens the appr.
tito. It promotes digestion, and removes
fever from the system. Therefore, by all
means, let the horse nip grass fifteen or
twenty minutes daily. Whether training
for trottug or running it will ho attended
with tho highest benefit. The horse will
loSo none OF its speed 10y such course OF
treatment. Horses that are kept mp the
year round Tor farm work should certainly
be allowed nice nihble at grass every
day. They work hard. aud all they get for
il is something to eat. Let them have

Clipping Horses.

Within the last few years the Eaglish
practice of clipping horses on tho ap-
proach of the winter months has in The
most OF our cities, become quite common.
Many advantages arc claimed for it by
horsemen, which, 40 far as our experience
extends, are somewhat questionable.
While there may be some con- pieRces about
the system, we are well satisfied that there
is some danger. We have known several
valuable horses whose lives were lost
through being clipped, and OF others that
were ruined. We hav9 now in our minds
eye one Of the fastest young trottng horses
IN the country that has become useless for
the road from disease contracted soon
after he had been shaved, as the English
say Our winter climate is so varied from
that of the mother country" that IL is not
fair to claim for the practice tho same AL
vantagos as Yeil as exemptions here as
there. .........
Nature is always correct, and il is only
when wo attempt to change its order that
danger in sotre form follows. Tho horse is
provided with coat of hair, IA n meOns Of
protection from the change of the wcather,
In THO spring he sheds tho hair, aud new
growth commences, and continues steadily
until the cold season has fairly set in. At
Inut tlme Tue coat nus TeaCUeu lt5 proper
thickness, and become suitable clothing
for protection from the frosts and SHOWS,
Clippings changes this vol arranged or.
der, and creates a necessity for protection
which only the careful horscman will pro
vide for. And herein lies the point; n
clipped horse should never he allowed to
stand in the open air without bciug heavily
blankctod, aud then not long, AM, he should
Ia al 1,xsoup 0rNnnne Il m ia al afinp ,an,-
ing iuto the stable.
Although clipping has grown into high
favor of late, il is an old practice in Eng.
land, of near fifty years standing; aud
while we think il has some advantages for
the road horse, it has also its dangers az
we have before remarked, and we would
not advocate the extension of the practice
to coach horses, or horses that arc mnch
exposed, as they are are not apt to receive
the same attention as the fly ing roadster

Curlng ana Prescrving Meat.

Kill early, and smoke only IA damp

meat aud scald il IN boiling water, by tsk
ing hold of the hook end, and dipping and
turning it about for one minute, theu put

Forest trees havo died OF so rapidly for
the past few years, aui farmers have been
so lavish in the use Of timber. that the
question Is now being asked. what are we
10 d0For fcncing malorialH Tho question
is one OF imporiauce. Most farms we he.
lieVo haYeye, timber enough upon them,
h properly managed, to furnish foncos for
many years TO come.
Hickory and ash shonli bo usei only
for rails oak aud chestnut for posts beech
maple and other hard timber that will not
easily split, for fence boards. Upon many
farms, rails hereafter eau. only Oe used Tor
cross fenccs, posts and boards taking their
places when lines are permanently fixed.
There is no fence cheaper than y rail
fence where timber is plenty, but the 1ucs.
tion is how TO economics IN tho use Of
timber. Some are making their farms into
large fields. which is great saving Of
fencing material. 10 fence farm into
five acre lots, crediting ono half Of tho
fence 10 tho adjoining field, il would re-.
quire eleven aud half rods of fence per
acre. Then acre lots would require eight
rods Of fence per acre. Twenty acre fields
woull require FIVE and half rods per
acre. Forty acre lots will require but about
four rods per acre Of fence.
DOafu fences are pest Wnen bult WIN
posts butfive feet apart, and tho boards
nailed upon the post so that n whole tier
viii not end upon the Same post or in other
words, so put on as 20 break joints. If two
cap boards are put upon the top breaking
joints aud firmly nailed down to the ends
of the posts, they will almost entirely pre-.
vent the fence from warping out Of line.
Fence posts should be oharrod aud set
into the ground at least two and half feet
and as much deeper rs any one may desire,
II the frost gets below them they will be
lifted by il in the spring.
Tho best mode for laying over an old
fence to make it durable, is TO use new rails
for top and bottom. If farmers would nj.
ways practice this, they would find it a
great saving of timber for the bottom rail
