Horse Feeding.

DIR. McClue's Stable Guide treats of horse
feed in accordance, we think, with the
views of the most experienced horsemen.
He greatly prefers corn to oats, in all sea-
sons of the year. We quote:
For horse feed Indian corn possesses all
the elements of warmth and nutrition and
is well calculated TO supply the wear and
tear of the system of the hardest worked
horse, and keep him in a healthy condi-
ton, without any assistance from oats but
the usual addition of hay should be allowed
to horses, whatever be the feed in use. BY
a reference to the analysis of corn, it will
be observed that there is little loss from
woody fibre or other inert substance, but
that 1t is wholly composed of flesh and fat
forming substances. 1t is this principle
contained i'm corn that is to be modified
and corrected as a feed, and not to be added
to by greater concentration of nu-
tritive matter: or in other words add to
the corn materials that do not contain,
or at least but in a small degree, those
powerful constituents that characterize In
dian corn and for this purpose we will
recommend that the corn be in minute di-
vision, or ground into meal to insure a
greater diffusion in the stomach, and less
concentration than would result by feeding
1t whole, and not mixed with eXtraneous
matter, us cut hay, or chatf and a little
bran. The bran is to prevent, or at least
modify, the costive or binding and heating
effects of the corn the chaff or cut hay is
to give sufficient bulk TO the feed thereby
keeping the bowels moist, and the meal
from contraction. At the same time the
horse has a feed before him of which he
can eat his fill without producing cramp
or collie, which often results from feeding
corn whole or in meal, without a sufficient
mixture or bulk being given it, 1t is the
want of this knowledge, together with the
extra trouble in cutting hay and mixing
such feed, that forms the chief argument
of some stablemen against feeding with
corn and in favor of oats.
A carriage or saddle-horse used for shop
ping or afternoon rides or drives can be
kept in excellent condition with six
pounds of corn meal, three pounds of cut
hay, two quarts of wheat bran and a tea
spoonful of salt, mixed with warm water in
winter and cold in summer, the water to be
just enough barely to moisten the mess and
not to make soft feed or slop to disturb the
bowels of the horse, and unfit him for eX-
ertion. The above named mess is to be di-
Vided into three feeds, for morning, noon
and evening. An addition of six to eight
pounds of hay must also be given in the
rack. These quantities, however, are
merely proXimate, for the old horse and
one of harder work will, to keep him in
good condition, require an addition, and
young animals of less work will not require
so much. Draught and hard worked horses
should be fed more generously, say fifteen
to sixteen pounds of meal, with six to
eight pounds of cut hay, half a peck of
bran, and an extra allowance of hay in the
rack at night

LOOK TO YOUR GRAPES,-Burning of
the odds and ends of tobacco, to be obtain
ed AT some stores and all tobacconists, for
two or three cents per pound, is the best
thing to smoke out all the early vermin
from the grapery and just now is a deli
cate time to watch the vines to see that
they are free from these enemies. The
smoking, however should be done without
ton. No one who knows anything about
raising grapes under glass will water the
vines while they are blossoming. But
when this is fully over, the large syringe
should thoroughly sprinkle everything in
side, including vines, soil, glass, &c, twice
or thrice a day. This must be accom-
panied with powdered sulphur, placed in
the vicinity of every vine as a protection
against mildew and should mildew I'M
fortunately make its appearance, the vines
themselves should be sprinkled with it
Just now the outdoor grapes are liable
to suffer from the steel blue bug, which
feeds upon the blossom, and leaves behind
its progeny the small brown maggOt that
feeds ravenously upon the leaves, and Sc
riOusly damaging whatever of the crop is
left by the bug. \ solution of whale oil
soap and water is sudden death to them :;
but the larvae are difficult to get at, and
the best way TO destroy them is to go over
the vines and use the thumb and finger.
Last year they were very few and they did
but little damage, and there may be no
damage from them this year, but the vines
should be carefully gone overland not an
hour should be lost in doing so.-Ge1nl0n-

LOCAL MINING ITEMS.

-
1t Is tolerably evident to most people
that stocks are downtown almost to
freezing-out point :. down lower than
ever before, as far as the mines gen.
orally along the great Comstock are
concerned ; down below all manner of
reason; down as low as they can get,
let US all hope. The Alta says:
Money continues abundant, at 1@lA
per cent. at bank. and 9al0 per cent.
per annum on long terms. The de-
mand is not active. the chief require
ment just now being for the purchase
of grain, and some $780, 900 have been
forwarded for that object" This reads
comfortable enough. but it has no APP
parently reviving effect upon mining
stocks. We have nothing particularly
substantial In the way of mining de-
velopments to report, except the as
sessment Of $12 so per share OH the
Gould & Curry, and the fact that the
Yellow jacket and Hale & NOrcross,
the two great bullion mines, have, after
a short cessation Of q week or two, re-
sumed operations. and are now In full
blast, tumbling out the good ore 1T a

meeting Of the Company, held last
Monday, the following gentlemen were
chosen Trustees: A. X. p. Harmon

A. Hayward, William Norris, Robert

this amount, 30. SS5 tons was crushed,
realizing an average of $l5 50 per ton,
and a~ggreSating $s2,434; guy tons

1t Is noteworthy that the past year

AccrDEST.-Last evening, about SIX
o'clock, a drunken man named Jerry
Harrington, q native of Ireland, stub
bornly refused to leave the railroad
track, at the crossing on Main
street, Gold Hill, and In consequence
was caught by the locomotive Conf
stock" and terribly crushed against
the platform. He was carried away
in a state of insensibility, to the resi-
dence of Mrs. Crowley, near BY,
where restoratlves were applied and
DR.. Hall was sent for to attend him.
Mr.. Kelly, who was with Harrington
at the time Of the accident, used his
utmost endeavors to pull and drag
him away from his terribly dangerous
position, and came very neal losing
his own life. The only wonder Is that
Harrington was not killed on the spot,
~ he was crowded into 4 space Of not
over ten inches wide, and rolled
around once or twice, In an upright
position. The engineer had rung the
bell for some distance before reaching
the platform, and the train was going
very slow. No one was to blame but
Harrington himself.
