There are indications that Maize, or In
dian corn, great staple of the American
farmer, is not only to maintain its position,
but even rise to greater importance. The
General Omnibus Company, London, has
for the last six years discarded oats as for
age for the omnibus horses, substituting
cracked corn and chaf, in the proportion
of II parts Of maize to 10 of chat. The
maize costs three to four shillings less per
quarter than oats. A "quarter" in grain
measure is eight bushels. "Chaffn means
chopped straw. The horses are said to
thrive better upon maize than they did
upon OATS and the difference in their ap.
pearance Is evident. While large concerns
like an omnibus company can enforce the
change, it is stated that the grooms in pri-
vate stables and the dealers in grain are
leagued to oppose the general introduction
of the compound forage" In oats and
trusses ofhay there is opportunity for specu-
lation (without the initial s., while in the
new forage there is less opportunity. Still,
if the utility of the innovation is establish
ed horse owners will eventually carry their
point. One advantage in the use Of maize
for horse-teed in Europe is said to lie in the
fact that before expectation from this coun-
try it must be kiln-dried. In the article Of
maize the American continent has a virtual
monopoly, and it is therefore animportant
fact for this country that the article isap-
preciatcd.

FOnndNred Horses.

Many horses are called little foundered
when it is only stiffness of the cords of
the neck and shoulder caused by the check
rein. You lave often seen II horse step
back in his stall after he had been out to
show off his best points, and put his nose
down to the floor. The groom, with wise
look, will remark, "Thc old man gave him
hard one today while in fact the horse
was only stretching the cords of his neck
and then, to make the matter still worse,
the ignoramus tics the halter shorter, so as
to make him stand up in his.stall." (That
action was an error, for fyou gag him up"
and then refuse to let nature restore the
equilibrium, You will in short time create
contraction in the cords of the neck and
shoulders, and the horse shows stiffness
which appears to be a foundcr.) My pre-
ventive is to feed from manager on level
with his feet and not over twenty inches in
front. This lets horse feed as he was
made to cat; horse never was made to
eat like Il giraffe. Another objection to
high managers (and never saw anything in
their fuvorO is, they irritato the throat and
wind pipe, and create u tendency to heayes

CREAK1NG CART OF THE AzoREs.-Thcre
are several villages in Flores, and agricul-
ture is prosecuted with much industry,
although women labor in the fields, and
the implements are of patriarchal charac-
ter. Donkeys and horses are scarce, and
the means of transportation are the human
head and small carts drawn by diminutive
cattle; the wheels are solid, turning on an
axle of chestnutwood, selected especially
on account of the Internal squeak it gives
out The peasants find this congcnial
music on the lonely roads it can be heard
a great distance, and is so modulated as to
produce alternately squeak and a groan
The cattle become accustomed to work to
this dolcful accompaniment, and the dri-
vers maintain that it is essential to their
own happiness each cart owner is, in fact,
boastful of the peculiar tune creaked by
lis own vehicle. -Scribner's for September.

Ivy FESTUS.
Down by Deer Creeks stony bed,
sat and thought how time had fed
lew !!Gy'1 ones in the grave laid low,
Smiled on us here, ten years ago.
But what joy again to meet
With friends who here so kindly greet;
Their grasp the same, their hearts aglow,
just like they were ten years ago!
As ncar'd their domicil,
paused to look and think awhile,
All around made just the show
Which we looked on ten years ago.
| entered by the same porch door,
Where friends with us went in before
And just the same kind greetings flow,
Which we received ten years ago.
We miss, alas! since we were here,
The smiles Of one to all so dear;
We miss him; yes, we loved him so,
And he loved us ten years ago.
His spirit now with those above,
Is blending in q sea of love;
His gentle soul with us below,
Was full oflovc ten years ago.
The brothers both together pull,
Till barn and pantry both are full
With care they turn the sod and SOW,
As once they did ten years ago.
In the house and on the farm,
Ncatncss grccts us like q charm;
The willows by the spring grow
just like they did ten years ago.
In ten years more where may we be;
And where this Christian family?
The future, God alone can know;
We only sing-ten years ago.
