The frequency of SPAWN, ring bone and
other inftmmatory diseases OF The tissues
is largely due 10 the common practice of
breeding from unsound horses. "A con-
stilutional disease means an inherited one
and if cured by local treatment, (no Other
will cure spavin) will almost certainly
reappear rs soon AS the conditions which
once developed it return. The proba
bilily is that The mare in question would
have n cull that would be spawned IN

is not certain. Stiffness alone does not
indicate SPAWN; this is II conspicuous en-

A New LINCOLN STORY.-A new story
of Lincon-uew o meat least-was told at
republican headquarters in Chicago during

connection it may not I've amiss to tell.
Your readers will recall the peace con-
ference which occurred in February, 1865,
at Fortress Monroe, between President
Lincoln and Secretary Seward on the one
side and Alexander II. Stephens, John A.
Campbell and r. NJ. T. Hunter on the
other. The attenuation of Mr. Stephens
has long been matter of such general
notorety that it is not offensive 10 speak
of it.
1t seems that Mr.. Lincoln had never
seen Mr. Stephens before. At that time a
kind of cloth was worn by southern gen.
,lemen. nearly of The shade Of the ordina'
ry corn-hn>k; and Mr.. Stephens great
coat WAS made of that material. But Mr.
Stephens. who has always been n frai
man, wore many other garments beneatl

One Of the best ralions for work horses
is corn, oats and fiaXseed ground together
The corn and Oals in equal weight, and
to nineteen bushels of the mixture of corn
and oats add one bushel of fiixseed and
grind all finely together. The corn and
u:lls make well balanced ration, and the
tlax,eed is rich in oil. muscle forming and
b. ne-building elements; but its oil is lis
greatest sanitary element. This small
proportion Of oil is just sufficient to keep
he bowels in excellent condition, the coat
sleek, and every part of the system in well
balanced activity. And then by feeding
this ground mixture with twice its bulk OF

with the subject of fertilizers, and before

In the afternoon the professor continued
his lecture, after which the best methods
of retaining our pastures and maintain
ing their fertility was discussed.
Mr.. Tinkham said there were hosts OF
pastures in Vermont which should never
have been cleared at all, and the best way
to treat those was to let them grow up
again to wood. If they now had their
original growth of wood they would bt
