IBaIky Horses.

When the horse balks, it is not
from any unwillingness to perform his
duty, but from some confusion or ex-
element arising from Encouragement.
He is willing anxious to go, but too
eager or high spirited to make the
steady push against the collar neces-
sary to move the load. The usual
plan is to commence to curse and
lash.
A volume might be written on the
Importance of keeping cool on all such
occasions. Frequently, simply going
to their heads and moving them gen
tly against their collars to the right
and left evenly, giving them time to
get cool, and they will start of thei1
own accord. Sometimes taking up
one fore foot in your hand, and giving
the horse a sharp press against the
shoulder, to one side. will cause him
TO step, and start him. But if the
habit is firmly fixed, you will have to
resort to the following means, which
will take a few lessons, and then you
break up the habit:
Take your balky horse in the barn
or on a piece of green sward take
him by the head and tail and whirl
him around until he is quite dizzy,
if you become dizzy before he does,
let him whirl himself, as follows =
Tie the hair of the tail into a hard
knot !; then take the halter strap in
your left hand, hold the tail in your
right, pass the halter strap through
the hair, above the knot, and draw
up as short as the horse will bear with
out running around, tying quickly.
This will bring the horse in the form
of a half circle-bis head fast to his
tail by the halter strap.
Your object is to break up his con
fdence in himself: and nothing on
earth, no process you a subject him
to, will do it half so soon as this.
Should he not run around freely,
touch him behind with the whip, which
will cause him to nov sharply. Sim
ply keeping him moving until he falls
down.by becoming dizzy, which he
will do inside of a minute and a half.
Let him lie a few minutes /; then tie
bim in the opposite direction and put
Him iHouSh ulIA he HILLS, or 10 uai-
able to move. Then put on your war
bride and give him a few sharp jerks
to the right and left, and show him
you al handle him by the head as
well as the tail ; and train him until
he can spring to the right and left
and straight forward, when you ask
him-and then you are in a shape to
put him to harness.
IF he refuses to draw, step in front
of him with the bride on, and fetch
him either way first, and then straight
ahead; and in a short time you will
work it out of him. If at any time
your horse should become warm, let
him cool, You will gain time by ii
for when sulky and heated, he is in
no shape to learn.-Er.

lines. At eight the cups r all out
save the corner ones. At nine all the
teeth are full, shut even and present a
fair appearance. At ten the teeth
turn yellow or brown, the tushes are
either blunt or very long, the gums
shrink away giving the teeth a larger
appearance. At eleven, the teeth are
black and foul and the gums form
points between them. AT twelve the
upper teeth begin to overhang the
lower ones. At thirteen the front
teeth thicken and assume a triangular
shape.
When older than this but very little
dependence can be put upon the ap-
pearance of the mouth. From this
period on, the teeth grow moro foul
and long, and are worn fiat from side
to side, the under lips drops and the
gums appear to dry up and recede.
A horse has forty teeth; twenty
four grinders, four tushes, and twelve
incisors or nippers. The colt is born
with eight double teeth at about two
months of age four more appear, one
upon each jaw. AT n year four
more come, and at the age of two,
four others, and at three four more,
making the mouth full. Twenty-four
grinders.-OhiO Farmer.

bees as equivalent to thirty or forty
pounds of honey, while the market
value of a pound of wax is more
than two pounds of good honey, or
three or four of Cuba honey. With
these facts the reader car estimate the
loss from the ''brimstone" practice.
By removing the native queen from a
colony of black bees and introducing an
Italian queen in her place, in about three
weeks her golden striped progeny will be
gin to emerge from the cells, and in about
three weeks more they begin to gather hon
ey. If the queen was introduced in May,
in about three months all the black bees
will nave died off from natural causes, but
if introduced late in the season they will
not all have disappeared short of about six
months. These oft repeated experiments
beautifully verify the following facts: LIST.
That the queen is not a "king," but a fe-
male, and the mother of the whole swarm,
laying all the eggs, for if not from the Ital-
ian queen whence came this yellow girded
progency? 2. That the workers do not fly
out to collect honey from the flowers until
about three weeks old. 8. That the worker
bees are short lived, and where forage
abounds and they are industriously gather
ing stores their span of existence is exceed
ingly short, and were it not for the astonish-
ing rapidity with which they multiply by
breeding at this season of the year, a single
stock could not swarm as often as they do
in this country, and especially in Cuba and
| California.
In strong colonies, having plenty of stores,
the queen will often deposit eggs during
every month in the year, the best brood be-
ing reared between October and January.
During this time the brood often occupies a
S 3 all circle of the size of a silver dollar, in
the CENTRE of the cluster of bees exactly OPP
posite on each side of a comb. Smaller
circles are next occupied in the two ad-
joining combs. The circle of eggs in the
first comb is then enlarged, and more added
in the others, continuing to spread to other
combs, keepicg the distance from the centre
or place of beginning to the outside of the
circle, about equal on all sides. The effect
of this is to produce conformation and ami
maj neat IOr ueVelOplnS the various changes
of the brood. On the approach of spring
an increased amount of brood is reared, and
as early earnestly spring flowers appear the
bees go to work in earnest to provide limpid
honey and freshly gathered pollen for the
queen and her numerou soft spring. When
the fruit unfold their pink and snowy los
SONS, rich supplies are earned by the busy
! throng of workers. Breeding goes on apiece
The latent swarming IMPULSE begins to. be
felt, and if the weather continues warm and

Judging The Age of a Horse.

There are no marks or signs about
a horse by which his age can be told
with exact precision, yet there are GER
tain rules by which experienced horse.
men al judge many times very &C
curately, when the animal is between
the years of one and twelve; after
this, it is more than half guess work.
The teeth are the best test of the age,
but they vary SO in appearance, in
different horses that the best judges
are often very much deceived.
Besides the signs given in the mouth,
something can be told by the general
appearance of the animal. Old horses
show deeper cups over the eyes than
the young; the cords and muscles are
less firm and prominent the hair loses
its life and luster, the eyes their
brightness, etc. The advance of years
may be estimated by the degree these
signals of approaching infirmity indi-
cate. Our experience in this matter
has led US to judge by the following
indications, and more accurately than
any other, when estimating by the ap.
pearance of the teeth alone: At one
year old, the colt has a full set of tenn.
porary front teeth which are short
round and very white. AT the age
of two the colt sheds two center front
teeth above and below, and horse teetf
make their appearance. At three.
four others are lost, n on each side
of the first. AT four, the corner teeth
drop out. AT the age of five the new
horse teeth at the corners are
up even with the others; the mouth
is full and the tushes appear. AT SIX
the cavities or cups in the center teeth
will be nearly worn away and the
tushes r up full, white and sharp

Martin Van Buren,, the Eighth Presi-
'sIa of the United States.

"a There have been few, if any, more
remarkable public men in the United
States. than, Martin Van Buren,, of
New York, the successor of Andrew
jackson In the President Chair. He
was born in 1882, the same year with
Calhoun, Benton; Webster and Clay.
He was of poor and humble origin.
His father was a Dutch inn-keeper in
Columbia County, upon the Hudson
River. Martin studied law. He early
graduated, with fine change of sue
cess. He went into political life. He
first became Surrogate equivalent to
Probate Judge) of the county in which
he resided. He was hen elected to
the Legislature. He was afterward a
member of the House and Senate, and
Attorney General of the State. In all
these positions he acted with the Dem
ocratic party. They in New York OPP
posed Madison's reelection for Presi-
dent, and favored De Witt Clinton,
upon the ground that the latter would,
If chosen, cause in all the departments
extra vigor and force of character in
behalf of the wal. But Clinton was
Beaten and Madison was successful.
Van Buren, became one of the great
men of the Stale. He was a "Buck-
tail" in contradistinction to the Gin
tonians," the names of the two fac
lions into which the Democracy were
divided.
In the process of time Van Buren,
and De Witt Clinton found them
selves again together, both united in
the support General jackson for
President. When he was elected,
Van Buren, was made Governor of
New York, and Clinton was to be
Secretary of State. The latter was
struck down by apoplexy. jackson
then made Van Buren, the principal
officer Of his Cabinet, viz Secretary
OF State. In the Mrs. Eaton con
troyersy, which grew out of the cir
cumstance that the wives of the Cab
met officers refused to call upon Mrs.
Eaton became her reputation had been
Efblown" upon, Mr.. Van1Buren took
no part. He was a widower, and, sc
for as he was concerned, he visited
Mrs. Eaton, who was sustained by
General Jackson. When the Eaton
Cabinet was capitalization being
Secretary of War-Van Buren, was
cent as Minister to England. He was
there but a few months. The Senate
of the United States was decidedly
against him. His confirmation only
received tie vote, and it was i'm.
mediately united against him by John
c. Calhoun, then the Vice President
of the United States, who, in tina
emergency, had the casting vote.
This threw General jackson into 6
paroxysm of Indignation. He vowed
that Mr.. Van Buren, should be the
next Vice President in place of Mr.
Calhoun, and afterward President o.
the Union. He had the power tc
carry both of these resolutions into eff
feet. His opponents in the Senate had
first the modification to observe thai

THE QUEEN.-Nothing is more in
teresting to me in the various opera
tions of the apiary than the sight of
the queen, surrounded by a number
of the attentive workers. Some per-
sons may take more delight in rearing

two rival queens, when left to decide
in mortal combat which shall gain the
victory, and by numbering a sister, in
harmony with the ancient law that
might makes right" henceforth re
main the sole object of reverence and
affection for forty thousand members
of this insect family, whose very ex-
istence depends upon her welfare. We
shall give our artist more time to dis
play his skill in bringing to the view
of our readers a picture of queen
rearing, and a fatal battle in the royal
family, when spring brings the appro-
pirate season for an illustration and
article on the interesting subject OF
rearing queens. We intend to give a
series of articles with an accompany
ing illustration for the benefit Of be-
ginners and those who have paid little
or no attention to this most interest
ing study. The more advanced will
therefore bear with us if we do not
"leave the first principles and go off
! to perfection" in this series of articles
as soon as they may desire. We refer
them to the subject matter treated of
in other columns Of our papers, while
we have a chat with those who believe
there is a king in every hive of bees.
We shall not deny that there is often
found around the outside, one by that
name, but we would not covet a dwell
ing place, even in such a "sweet home"
AS most bee keepers have observed
that a swarm of bees sometimes fills
a hive in from four to six days, some
have supposed that the combs were
made of honey, but of some other ma
terial, perhaps indentical with the vel
low pellets (of pollen) carried upon
the workers thighs, and that bees
could change different kinds of sweet
making honey, ever from syrup.
These opinions may be corrected by
combining a swarm of bees in a nova
ble-comb hive and feeding them an in
ferior quality ofsyrup, when the,comb.
are examined the syrup will be found
unchanged in the cells. IF the swarm
was destitute of comb the bees viii
build comb, consuming about 20 lbs
of sweet to produce n pound Of
comb or wax. For this reason, oul
best apiarians melt no good comb into
