HOW TO Treat a Horse. :.

Some English grooms at Saratoga are
teaching the Yankees" how to take care
of a horse. .-..E .H..rs-.rl
To-day I asked one of these, who has
spent twenty years in the stables of royal
ty, what he had to say about our Amer
lean way of taking care Of horse.
Why, sir,n said he, "you don't take
good care of your horses; you think you
do, but you don't.nt RI. rr
"Why?'' asked.
Because, when a horse comes in all
wet with perspiration, you let him stand
in the stable and dry with all the dirt on.
In England we take the horse as he comes
in from the drive and sprinkle blood-warm
water all over him, from his head to his
feet Then we scrape him down and blan-
ket him, rubbing his legs and face and dry.
Thus, in an hour heis clean and dry, and
ready to take a good feed, while with your
way he will stand and swelter for hours,
and finally dry, sticky and dirty. Our
HORSES never founder and never take cold.
We never use currycomb. You scratch
your horses too hard. The only care ne
cessary is to have the water not very cold,
then battle them quick and blanket them
instantly, while you are rubbing their legs.

Hours fer Farm Labor.

A paper on this subject was read at a re-
cent meeting for discussion of the Bucks
County PENN Agricultural Society, by
w. G.. Blackfan. He thought ten hours
a day fair allotment for farm hands, but
with the contingencies of weather this
could not always be exactly arranged, and
it is more, in his opinion, than is accom-
plished on the average. He offered the
following suggestion, which is worthy Of
attention by others:
II do not see how this matter of farmers
working on time is ever to be brought
about. We must make and prepare our
crops while the sun shines, and arrange
our work for dull days within our build
ings and If your hands work overtime,
give them leisure day, or half day oc-
casionally, and let them know what it is
for. They will generally appreciate it,and
you will gain more than you will lose. 1t
will make them feel far greater inter-
est in their work, which will be to your
advantage. This has been my arrange
ment with my hands, and [ have never
heard them say anything about working
on time"
