during the first year Of my ministry by a
mechanic whom I had visited, and on
whom l urged the paramount duty of fam

Fall PLANTING of Strawberries.

Very little is gained by planting straw
berries in autumn. n 0 considerable
amount of fruit can be expected from the
plants the next season, and there Is always
more risk of loss from dry weather as well
As from cold in winter \ man who has
plants in his own garden NAV transplant
with safety in early autumn, because he
selects rainy day for the operation, but
to send to any distance for them is a very
unce4 tain business.
Spring appears to be the most natural
season for transplanting all kinds of small
and delicate plants, and we would advise
the novice in strawberry culture to defer
making new beds until that time.

Care ofCoIts.

A correspondent of the Country Gentle
man has this timely advice respecting the
care of colts
"When colts are weaned they should
never be put with older animals Of their
own species; few together with abund-
ance of room, viii do best, and the atten-
ton should be from one person who has
sense enough to discover any little matter
going amiss before it is serious-or, in 9TH
er words, he should have the gumption to
prevent every ailment horsehesh is liable
to, instead Of waiting to cure it. FOR in
stance, there may be q colt among several
which is so shy and nervous that he is
afraid to stand up and eat with the others,
till his share IS nearly consumed; there
may be another naturally very slow in
masticating, which would lose much OF his
share; and thu, these animals would pine
away. for if enough was given 50 that there
would be more than the boldest would ea
it would still be wrong, As there would be

could easily be remedied BY separation and
other prevention, adopted in time to meet
every contingency, but in no successful I'M
dertaking OF horse raising would there be
a constant use Of drugs or a resort toquack-
cry.
Colts are less subject to disease than 9TH
er young stock, and can be raised without
any coddling and when it must be known
by horsemen in America at what an early
! age the thoroughbreds are brought on the
turf, it is extremely surprising that they
should be content to raise their colts in
such fashion as to have the American
two year olds no forwarder than the Eng
fish yearlings. l appeal to Englishmen in
America or to Americans who have visited
the agricultural districts of England and
attended the horse fairs there, to say
whether the two year old farm colts are
not forwarder than three year old ones
here"
