Grooming Horses.

THE horse being the most important
machine in the farmers establishment, care
should be taken to preserve him in as per-
feet a state of health as possible. The or
dinaIy care of a horse consists in feeding
and watering him, and when from neglect
he suffers, dosing him with balls and
drenches. Physicking a horse may be
avoided altogether by treating him prop
erly. Give him a roomy, airy stable-a
loose box, or stall, is preferable to tying
up with a halter. Clean out his stable
daily nothing is more hurtful to the feet
of a horse than to permit him to stand in
a pile of fermenting manure. With a
clean bed, and left loose in his stall, he
will, of his own instinct, avoid lying in
filth, and much labor in cleaning will be
saved. Every night, when the days work
is done, wash his feet and legs free from
mud and dirt and in winter clean off all ice
or snow. Cleanliness is an absolute pre-
ventive of grease and other diseases which
commonly affect the feet and legs of
horses. Have handy in the stable a piece
of rough sacking, and rub his legs and
knee joints for a few minutes before leav-
ing him for the night. A days blowing
or narrowing over soft yielding soil is ex-
cessively hard work for the legs both of
horse and man, and this plan of rubbing
with a coarse cloth is good for either.
Feed regularly, and groom morning and
night, and you may throw physic to the
dogs. Hearth and Home.

Among corn, at the last working, or
among buckwheat, it will pay to sow
clover seed literally. Even though it is
not largely developed before it must be
destroyed, it will amount to considerable,
and amply repay the investment, either to
rot on the ground, or to be plOwed under.
Other substances such as buckwheat,
turnips and oats, can be used to pillow IN
der to improve land, but then they are far
inferior to clover, but Notwithstanding
that they may answer a good purpose, es-
pecially buckwheat, sown right thick to
smother briers and choke out weeds. But
in conclusion, we can say in regard to the
value of clover in keeping up the fertility
of the farm, that it can be done cheaper
than by carting manure from a distance,
and at such ~extravagant prices, as farmers
in most neighborhoOds have to pay for it.
There are two good things for farmers to
do to produce a great benefit to land.
First, sow clover seed, buckwheat, rye,
oats, turnips, or any other vegetable mat
ter very thick, to occupy the ground and
subdue weeds; afterwards destroy their
growth and allow them to decompOse in
the soil. The second thing, and not the
least is,Ito abandon the miserable practice
of leaving manure to lie in the barn-yard
to waste one half of its best qualities

The Nutritive Value Of Milk.

DR. OLIVER G. WIGGIN, of Providence,
r. l., bears the following testimony to the
value of milk:
The nutritive value of milk, as compared
with other kinds of animal food, is not
generally appreciated. There is less diff
ference between the economical value of
milk and beefsteak Tor eggs or fish, thanis
commonly supposed. The quantity of
water II a good quality of milk is Sc per
cent, in round steak 70 per cent, in fatter
beef go per cent, in eggs about 6S per
cent. From several analyses made last
winter l estimated sirloin steak (reckoning
loss from bone) at 80 cents a pound, as
dear as milk at "a cents a quart; round
steak, at 20 cents a pound, as dear as milk
at IA cents a quart; eggs at so cents a
dozen, as dear as milk at 20 cents q quart.
Many laborers who pay II cents for corned
beef would consider themselves hardly
able to pay 10 cents for milk, when. in
fact, they could as well afford to nav Is
cents. Milk is a most wholesome and
economical food, for either the rich or
poor. 1t ought to be more largely used.
If the money expended for veal and pOrk
were expended for milk, l doubt not it
would be an advantage both to the stom-
ach and pocket, especially during the
warm season. Relatively speaking, then,
milk at 10 cents, OF even IL cents a quart,
is the cheapest animal food that can be
used. Whether farmers can afford to pro-
duce it cheaper is a matter for them to de-
eide. 1t is very probable that were they
to ask IL cents, a very large number of
poor people would refrain from its use
from mistaken notions of economy. not
withstanding they were excessive meat
eaters.

The conditions under which mercantile
work is nowadays carried on are such
as to tell severely on the nerves,
but not the less is it true that
they are only indirect, not direct, causes
of the wasting disease and high rate of
OF mortality which are now becoming
such marked features of city life. 1t is the
free use of stimulants during working
hours, e~nfeebling the mind and paralyzing
the frame, which makes the work so fatal
ly exhausting. Nor, as VI have said, does
the evil stop here. 1t IS impossible that
business can rest on a sound basis when it
is carried on under the excitement of fire.
quent drains. The tales of ruined charac-
ter are more terrible even than those of
ruined health. The recklessness with
which business is carried on leads natu-

measures which are resorted to in the at
tempt to avert or retrieve disaster. Acool
head and careful prudence are essential to
the maintenance of that secure credit
which is the only basis of sound trade.
The remedies for the present melancholy
state of things must be sought in r~esolute
abstinence from all stimulants during the
hours OF work, and in the endeavor to re-
uuO0, ds IA as pOs>-DIe, tuo WHY anu Ia
tigue which usually attend the daily life of
a man of business. The present movement
for curtailing the hours of work is in every
way a mistake. Instead of being short
ened they should be heightened, and city
men, as they certainly will not go back TO
the old plan of living Owe their counting
houses, should at least try to establish
themselves within walking distance of
their place of business. What they imper-
atively require is more repose of mind and
and body, and less excitement.-LOndOn

4 PitIfuI Condition.

It is a sad thing to pass through life only hall
alive. Yet there are thousands whose habitual
condition is one of languor and debility. They
complain Of no specific disease; they suffer no pos
tive pain; but they have no relish for anything
which affords mental or sensuous pleasure to their
more robust and energetic fellow-beings.
In nine cases out of ten this state of lassitude
and tOrpOr arises from a morbid stomach. Indi-
geston destroys the energy Of bothmind and body
When the waste of nature Is not supplied by a due
and regular assimilation OF the food, every organ
is starved, every function interrupted.
Now, what does common sense suggest under
these circumstances of depressionf The system
needs rousing and strengthening; not merely fol
an hour or two, to sink afterward into a more pit
liable condition than ever las 1t assuredly woulddo
to-, but radically and permanently.
How is this desirable object to be accomplished
The answer to this question, founded on the IN
varying experience Of a quarter of a century, is
easily given. Infuse new vigOr into the digestive
organs by q course of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.
Do not waste time in administering temporary
remedsSs, but wake the system up by recuperating
the fOuntain-head Of physical strength and energy,
the great organ upon which all the other organs
depend for their nurture and support.
By the time that a dozen doses of the great veg
etable tonic and invigorant have been taken, the
feeble frame of the d~yspeptic will begin to feel its
benign influence. Appetite will be created, and
with appetite the capacity to digest what it Graves.
Persevere until the cure is complete-until health
full blood, fit to be the material of flesh and mus
Gle, bone and nerve, and brain, flows through the
channels of circulation instead of the watery
pabulum with which they have heretofore been
imperfectly nourishpd.

A Hint to Husbands.

Isn't it strange that some men, who
will be kind and obliging to their neigh
bors, gentlemanly and polite to other
ladies, will be so rude and cold and harsh
at home, and perfect bears to their wives
grabbed, snappish, ungenerous and alto
gether ~unsocial and hateful? Does any
body know of any such men? Not that l
wish to lay all the wrong doing and
blame on man kind, or condemn them en-
mGSse-not at all. There are plenty of
good, noble men, but not quite enough.
When they are s. strong, and have so
bless their homes, why won't they al do
it?
Circumstances alter cases" Some
mems wives are trying enough to wear
out the patience of Job; but then, in the
perversity of things, you will generally
find a real bear of q man united to a frail,
patient, f~orbearing and forgiving wife.
She is your wife, Mr.. Bear, and the mother
of your children, and probably dependent
on you for a home and means, and can't
get a way from you; so, of course, she is
in your power, and you can treat her Just
as you choose. BIT if you expect her
heart TO bound with pleasure when she
hears your footsteps. or to proffer you
caresses, or to rejoice IN your presence,
you are much mistaken. She is human
neither more nor less. Please reverse your
situations and conditions. How much,
and how long, would you bear such treat
ment as you give her? You will ~inevita-
bly, be measured and weighed for Just what
you are, and there is no help forit-RurGL

AN Irish woman who came to this
country about a year ago, and settled in
Pennsylvania recently, grew so homesich
that she became insane and attempted to
starve herself, taking no food for twenty
two days. At the end of that time she
was helpless, and vas promised if she
would eat she would be taken back to Ire
land. She made her friends set the time
at two weeks in which she was to start,
and as they were not ready at the exact
day she took to her old tricks again. See
ing it was useless to put her off they COM
menced the journey, when she began TO
recover reason and health at once, and is
probably now as well end happy as any
