Feeding and Caro- Of Horses.

All horses must not be fed in the
same proportions, without regard
to their ages, their constitutions,
and their work; because the impro-
priety Of such practice is sclf-evi-
dent. Yet it is constantly done, and
is the basis Of diseases Of every
kind.
Never use bad hay on account OF
its cheapncss, because there is no
proper nourishmcnt in it.
Damaged corn is exceedingly iniu.
rious, because it brings inflamma.
ton Of the bowels and Spring dis
eases.
Chaff' is better for old horses than
hay, because they can chew and d.
gest it better.
Mix chatf with corn or beans,
and do not give the latter alone, be-
cause it makes the horse chew his
feed more and digest it better.
Hay or grass alone will not sup.
port a horse under hard work, be-
cause there is not sufficient nutri-
tive body in either.
When a horse is worked hard, it's
food should chiefly be oats-it not
worked hard, it's food should chief
ly be. hax-bccausc oats supply
more nourishment and flesh making
material than any other kind of
food; hay not so much.
For a saddle or coach horse, half
peck Of sound oats and eighteen
pounds Of good hay are sufficient.
If the hay is not good add a quar-
ter of Il peck more oats. A horse
which works harder may have rath-
err more of each; one that works lit
tic should have less.
Rack feeding is wastcful. The
better plan is to feed chopped hay,
from manger, because the food is
not then thrown about, and is more
easily chewcd and digested.
Sprinkle the hay with water that
has salt dissolved in it, because it
is pleasing to the animals taste,
and more easily digested. A tea
spoonful of salt in a bucket of water
is sufficient.
Oats should be bruised for an old
horse, but not for young one, be-
cause the former, through age and
defective teeth, cannot chew them
properly; the young horse can do
so, and they arc thus properly mix
cd with'thc saliva and turned into
wholesome nutrimcnt. = London

The fruit will keep just as well
without sugar as with it, and we
prefer it. In canning peaches, if
two or three are put in without re-
moving the pits, 4 bittcr-almond
flavor will pervadc tho whole can.
This flavor may be given to peach
preserves by boiling with the fruit
in the syrup tho kernels Of the
peach stones. For most palatcs
this is an Improvement.
AS to the proccss: Place Il very
wet cloth in the dishpan; set the jar
on this, having previously rinscd it
i'll cold water, place it in a silver
spoon, put in the tunnel and a cup
full Of syrup first, then fill with fruit
to the top. Remove the spoon and
place the jar where no draft of air
can strike it. The fruit should be
covered with syrup. In ten or fif-
teen minutes the contents Of the jar
will have cooled and settled some,
and they will be ready to seal up.
Fill them. to the top with syrup or
hot water; put on the rubber, the
glass cover and the screw ring
When the jars are cool, the ring
should be frightened again, and they
set away in cool, dark place.
Some put circular piece Of paper
on top of the jar before putting the
cover on, and think this prevents
the mold that sometimes forms over
the fruit. But if the cans stand till
partially cool, and are then filled
full before being scaled, no mold
will form.
AS to the purchase Of cans, if ono
sends direct to the manufacturer
and buys by the gross, he will save
all the profits Of middlcmcn: Tho
money usually spent in putting VI
fruit III the old-fashioncd way:
pound of sugar to apound Of fruit
if invested in cans and fruit alone
would go further and be vastly NOR,

A Half Million Aero Farmer.

California Correspondence N. Y. Tribune.
Miller & Lux own 40 miles of
land on the western side of the San
Joaquin; and other persons own
almost equally great tracts. 1t is
said that Mr.. Miller is the posscssor
of half million Of acres in this
State; he has nearly 100000 cattle;
and being a shrewd business man,
he is fencing in his great estate, to
reserve it for his own cattle. He is
rapacious for more land; and is
said to have determined that he will
not rest until he can drive his cattle
over his own land from Los Angeles
to the Sacramento. Two men in
San Francisco saw him sitting some
where, lost in thought, and one
asked 81 wonder what Miller is
planning now?" the other replied,
ale is making n little plan to buy
the rest of the State" Miller &
Lux have now about 1875 miles Of
fence built, and will build 500 miles
more this year. Some other great
land owners have nearly as much.
Fencing costs them from $500 to
$3.50 per mile. OF course these are
not the men who oppose mo fence
law.

COMPETING MARKETS FOR Iowa.
One Of the great advantages of Iowa
is the chance afforded by her rail.
roads and navigablc rivers for a
choice between competing markets.
by your lines of railroad We may
reach Milwaukee, Chicago, New
York, and other markets East, while
for many articles We may find a
better market in the mining regions
west. St. Louis and other cities
of the South arc accessible by either
river or rail, and should they offer
n better market we may 60 to them.
Indeed, the south is already looking
to Iowa for a large portion of her
breadstuffs, which we may exchange
for their cotton. Iowa farmers and
dealers are no longer under the
necessity of paying tribute to Chi
cago for the privilege OF cnriching
her merchants and traders. They
are now more Independent. Ifthey
do not like Chicago, they may help
themselves by going to St. Louis,
Milwaukee, or some other competing
market. This :. is an advantage
worthy Of tho attention of those
looking forSncw homes in the West.

Oranges and Lemons in California,

The oranges and lemons are, and
probably will continue to be, the
more profitable orchard trees in
Southern California. Sixty trees
are planted to the acre. They come
into bearing slowly, but at ten years
from the seed, or eight years from
planting ont the nursery trees, the
lemon will bring 600 and the orange
1000 to the tree; and l have seen
1000 lemons, or $500 oranges OH a
single tree at fifteen years of age
Now lemons sell in San Francisco
at $50 and oranges at about $l5 to
$25 per thousand; and from the
tenth year of trees age, with
good culture, irrigation, and in a fit
climatc-that is to say almost any,
where in California south of Stock
ton-thcsc trees arc found in .prac-
tice to yield, at the very least, $40
clear profit per tree, or 5000 per
acre. This is a very low statement,
far below the present actual yield
of orange orchards in Los Angeles
and San Bernardino. l know an
orange orchard of nine acres, near
Los Angeles, which has brought its
owner $4,000 per annun, clear prof.
it, for several years past. One
mans labor serves to keep in per-
feet order twenty acres of any of
these fruits. But it should not be
forgotten that all Of these fruits are
the better for irrigation. They
grow better, and faster, and bear
more regularly and freely; and the
orange and lemon, particularly,
will, I am persuaded, bear but
poorly without water, though some
people deny this. The most skillful
orchardist in Southern California
now iyrigates once in six weeks, and,
Of course, plows after every irriga-
ton. f-havc no doubt that frequent

Charge It.

Farmer Garrulous, of the Rural
Ntsc Yorker. has pretty keen eye
and usually travels with it open.-
Farmers will do well to remember
the following. 1t is true every time
and carries the moral with it. Far
mer Garrulous says: 8
II rode to town the other day
with Sam Stewer. He said he
was in q deuce Of a hurry He
had sold tub Of butter to be dcliv-
cred at the station that day, and he
had field ready to SOW with
wheat. He didn't know how to
spare the time, but he needed the
money and so harncssed his team
to deliver the butter. This he did,
got his cash, and, returning from
the station, stopped at store to get
two pounds of tea, Il pound of cof-
fec, a pound Of allspice, five pounds
OF sugar and Il gallon Of molasses.
The packages were put up for him.
He hustled them into the wagon,
and, as he was untying the tic-strap
he shouted to the merchant, Charge
it,
"After we had started home, l
said: 'Why did you not pay that
bill? You had the money in your
pocket ~
"sYcs; but you sec have got to
buy some clover seed Of Peter Juni-
per, who only deals for cash-don't
give credit. Then l have got bill
to pay at the milliner's. My wife
wants new bonnet, SO does my
daughter Sally, and last years bill
is not paid; and the womcn-folks
said they would not ask for any
more credit there until it was, so l
have got to give them fifteen or
twenty dollars to pay last years
bill 50 that they can get their head
gear. The fact is, Garrulous, 1 am
behind time all the while, These
middle-men do take the life.blood
out of us farmers
"'Bah!' said 1. THAT is all non
