the soil. II is pretty certain that o
great deal of seed is wasted by over
thick sowing. We have known one
bushel per acre to produce more than
five or six pecks upon similar ground,
when sown early this month. But the
soil was rich enough to yield thirty
bushels per acre. Upon poorer ground
this sowing would be too thin. If later
sown more seed is needed. There is
no question about the advantage of
drill-sowing over broadcast. To cover
the seed with common caltivator is
good substitute for drill-sowing.
Where the ground is at all cloddy, roll
ing after sowing will be of advantage,
otherwise we leave the surface rough.
As preventive against smut it will
pay to pickle the seed. Sleeping in
strong brine. lime water, or stale urine,
for three hours, are found effective in
many cases. Perhaps the best method
of picking seed, is TO dissolve four
ounces of blue stone (sulphate of cop
peri in one gallon OF water, for every
two bushels of seed. Heap the seed
upon the barn floor, and sprinkle the
solution over it: then mix thoroughly
with the shovel until the moisture is
spread evenly through the heap. Let
it remain twelve hours, when the pickle
will be absorbed. aud the seed may be
sown at once.-Americaa 1gricuttuf-

Treatment Of Young Horses.

Mr.. Brady Nicholson, of Starton
Grange, Garforth, at a recent meeting
of the West Riding Chamber of Agri-
culture, Yorkshire, England, read a
paper on this subject. from which he
was to make the following extract =
Young horses require, like all other
young animals, good keeping, and gra-
zing upon pasture land that has been
well boned. When was at Newman
ket judging greyhounds in 1915, the
late Lord George Bentinck himself
spread bone dust on the grass where
where his young yearling race-horses
grazed. Foals are better taught to
and their legs and feet handled. If
they happened to meet with an acct
dent, unless they have been battered
and led, they are very bad to manage.
Young horses, like children, require
kindness and iirmness. The more
quietly you move about them the bet
ter. Numbers of horses are spoilt by
Entertainment. Horses do know the
person who behaves i'll to them, and
most of them, when young, will, after
i'll treatment, give parting salute
when they have an opportunity. l
also look straight at the eye of horse
when | go up to him. If he drops his
ear back, / give him quick glance; l
speak to him, which draws off his at
tention from kicking. If man walks
boldly up to horse, he will seldom
lash out. Rarey's success was due to
his nerve and knowing the proper
tackle to put on horse.
At two years old a young horse had
better be mouthed and carefully han
died few weeks before turning out
to pasture. Atthree years he should
be Droken-a most critical time. Much
depends on the proper treatment, get
ting the horse with a good mouth and
manner. Should the horse uniortun-
ately throw the breaker and learn
wicked ways, he will try to do SO again
if he has the least opportunity. A
man that rides a young horse should
always be on his guard. When the
horse is first saddled run him up and
down the yard till he gets used TO the
saddle. BY adopting this method, and
keeping his heels from touching him
when first mounted till he settles down
many fall and accident may be avoid
ed. Very few men can sit horse
when he arches his back, as they feel
as if they were sitting on grindstone.

Trees For Timber Culture.

As rule it is the safest to select
those varieties of fruit trees for plant
ing upon the open prairie which grow
naturally in the immediate neighbor-
hood Many thousands of dollars have
been wasted in planting exotic yarie-
ties. Repeated trials have been made
| to reproduce the forests peculiar to the
Eastern States, and always with doubt
ful success. The sooner we accept the
fact that we have a climate essentially
different from any of the Eastern
States. the better it will be for the tree
planters. The losses of 1874 and 1873
have taught us some important lessons.
To profit by these should be our first
purpose. Those varieties which have
failed should be left alone; while new
varieties however well recommended,
should be planted sparingly, if at all.
In the neighborhood of Manhattan,
and probably to the west of this point,
it will be of little use to plant the
| ilt DCCbn, wv .sNPAN
and the larch. While east and south of
us the catalpa does well, so far ii
has proved only moderately successful
here.
The ailantus winter kills on our low
grounds, while upon high, dry and
gravclly ridges it gives promise of sue
cess. The tree is hardy in such situa-
lions. and if planted thickly viii shade
the ground and require little care after
the first year. From the general habit
of this tree, most people think the
wood must be valueless; but it is hard
fine grained and well fitted for many
kinds of mechanical work. 1t is good
for fuel, and for the first twelve or iif-
teen years it grows with great rapidity
but more slowly after that period.
Hence for planting on high and dry
locations it may prove one of the most
valuable of exotic trees, but it cannot
be relied upon if planted in rich bot
tom lands.
We can rely upon cottonwood, black
walnut, ash, both green and white,
some varieties of the willow. silver ma
pie, box elder and Usage orange. The
red cedar does well and should be
largely planted. While the Usage
orange does not make a very large tree
it has qualities which render it very
desirable tree to be planted for timber.
1t i. perfectly suited to our climate.
1t transplants well when young. 1t
will protect itself to a larger degree
from stock. The timber is justly re-
garded as among the most durable as
well as-the most valuable for many me-
chanical purposes. And lastly, the
young plants can be obtained at less
cost than those of any other desirable
varieties. For timber claims there is
probably no tree which will bring
sooner or larger returns than the Usage
orange for the outlay made. While
there are probably other varieties of
trees that can be successfully cultivated
we shall find the above our chief re-
lance for many years to come.-Proj.

eRObbery of q Safe.

Yesterday at noon, two sneak thieves en-
tered the coal office of Benjamin Hirins, al
the corner of Thirteenth and Market streets
in the absence of the proprietor, and robbed
the safe of between $40 and $50. The rob-
berry was nerpe'rated while Mr.. James Ken
nedy, clerk for Mr., Hirins, had gone into the
yard TO attcd 70 horse, which had become
loosened from lis fastening, and in the hurry
he left the safe open. 1t is thought that the
horse was loosened by the thieves to cause
the very effect that 1t did. Yesterday after
the robbery had been committed, Mr.. Ken
nedy appeared before Squire O'Neil, acting
Mayor, and made affidavit against Harry
Zebley and Frank AiDsworth, as the parties
guilty of the theft Of money in the safe of
Benjamin Hirins in the coal yard spoken of
Mr.. Kennedy is the father-in-law Of Mr..
Hirins. Up to late hour last night, the
thieves had not been caught.

Persons in the vicinity OF Market and
Fifth streets yesterday afternoon were some
what startled by the daring feats Of petite
blonde in horsewomanship. She rode .
neat, wiry-lookiug mouse -colored animal,
that had Just sufficient fire to give his step
elasticity, his neck the arch 80 becoming to
animals, and his eye sparkled 80 though
with human intelligence. The young lady
that rode him was the fairest of blondes,
and possessed of cool courage as remark :
able as It was admirable In one OF her years.
The animal became intractable at the efforts
of his mistress to make him cross the Iron
turn table of the street railway IN front Of
the Clayton House. He reared and plunged,
but the rider kept her seat as fearless and
self possessed as ono who had been trained
in the best schools OF equestrianism. She
piled the whip she carried freely, and after
innumerable efforts, requiring skill and
courage, her charger bore her as the victor
over the place he had at first refused TO 90,
but 1t was with proud and defiant step,
and the gallants in the crowd intuitively
raised their hats as recognition of the
young lady's courage. She rode away at .
swift gallop and was soon lost to sight.
Sunday evening lady was riding over
Third street bridge, when her horse became
unmanageable, snd in her efforts to bring
him un,ler control she was thrown to the
ground, but was soon upon her feet again,
and with the assistance of gentleman she
sprang Into the saddle, and under the heavy
lashings of her ivory handled whip the
beast sped like lightning, with the rider as
firmly seated as though going at an ordinary
rate of speed.
