GERRIr SMITH, the veteran abolitionlst,
and lifelong leader in the temperance re-
form, has expressed the opinion that "the
cry for absolute prohibition, is absolute
folly." There is a whole world of truth in
that remark, and though it was intended to
apply particularly to the situation in New
York, it might be studied with profit by a
good many well-meaning people in Kansas.

According TO the condition of its

straw or hay chat with It. This
absorbs its superfuous moisture, and
prevents tiatlllence, distension and
death. The same principle IS applied
to puiped TOots-pulped cabbage, kohl
rabi, mangold5-the latter being most
dangerous early in the season unless SO
admixed. The cost of dong all tins IS
trifie rs compared with the serious
losses occusioned by It's omission. The
value of a single animal would pay the
extra cost for several years. Ia fact, /

Over-ripe foods, either tares OF
clover, which are tough and indigesti-
hle, require communion. Of course,
in such case, being deficient rather
than oyer-full OF moisture, they do not
require straw chatI, or at all events
very little Of It. If horses are TO have
water. it should be before eating green
tares In wet state, not after Bean
meal should be intermiXed with or
attached to the cut food in the manager.

Where brewers horses have warm

finds much cusier to turn has horse
into field of nice clover, and SO spoil
much Of it. instead OF having to cut it.
bring it home. and pass it through the
chat cutter, and then mix it with other
food. Youths growing up with the
modern practice would naturally adopt

to convert old hands, and one must il
