THEY ALL KNow.-Once in a life time
you may meet man who will admit that
he doesn't know all about Il horse, but he
may come around next day and claim to
have been temporarily insane when he
made the admission. AS a rule, every
man knows exactly what ails a horse,
whether anything ails him or not, and can
point out a dozen instances where nature
could have improved on her work, no mat
ter how well she did it
Yesterday horse which had been look
eG over by the fire department and reject
ed on account of size, was tied to post
on Griswold street. He was sound as
dollar, not even showing a wind puff
Pretty soon along came two lawyers, and
one of them remarked:
PITY such nice animal as that is found
cred"
Yes, and l can see that he is wind
broken to boot" was the ready response.
Then the cashier of bank halted and
took a look at the horse S teeth. lie was
going away, when u mail carrier asked:
How old do you call himp'
Some men might buy him for twelve,
but they couldn't fool me. That horse will
never see sixteen again
The best judges had called him six, and
his owner had proofs he wasn't "a month
older. The mailcarrier felt of the ami
malls ribs, rubbed his spine, and observed &:
Hes got the bots, or I'm no judge of
horses.'
Then a merchant halted and surveyed
he horses legs, lifted its front foot pinched
its knees, and feelingly said:
"Been pretty good stopper in his day,
but he's gone to the crows now
The next man was book keeper. 1t
took him about five minutes to make up
his mind that sweeny was the leading all
ment, although poll-evil, heaves and CLAN.
ders were present in bad form
"What is sweeny?" queried an innocent
boot black who had made up his mind
that the horse had liver complaint.
"Sweeny!" repeated the book-keeper
"look at the way he carries his tail, and
learn what sweeny is"
"Oh, no." put in another; " sweeny af-
fects the eyes"
II guess nol," said an insurance man
al guess sweeny affects the lungs"
"Lungsr' cried broker; You mean
the stomach"
And they were jangling over it when
,, the owner of the horse came and led him
away.-M. quad.

STORING TURNIPs all the roots per-
haps the turnip is the most impatient of
heat. 1t starts to grow on the slightest
provocation. In cellar of not over forty
degrees, one may find it growing freely,
after an incarceration of but few weeks.
1t is growth which is the great enemy of
preservation, and it is heat which exeites
growth. There is natural heat in roots
when put in IA heap-a little heat from one
root and a little more from another soon
makes pretty high degree; but in the
open field this is carried off by the open
air about the pile Hence, under the GOV
er of near protection, this natural heat is
not carried off. 1t accumulates, the roots
sprout. and thus gives more heat, and it
al! soon becomes regular turnip stew.
The turnip, indeed, does not mind little
frost. If they were put in small lots in
stalls, where the frosr could get at them,
covered with straw to prevent rapid thaw-
ing, they would keep better than if COW
cred with earth, which rather serves, as
we have seen, to collect the heat and boil
the roots. AS to how best to keep turnips,
that will of course depend on each per-
sons conveniences. But if each one keeps
in view the fact that heat is more likely to
injure them than cold-and very low de.
gree at that-he will readily find out when
he looks about what is the best way fol
him to preserve them.-Ger. Telegraph.

ing method of nm Alabama gentleman in
ascertaining the age of horse more than
nine years old After the horse is nine
years old wrinkle comes in the eyelid,
at the upper corner of the lower lid, and
every yeal thereafter he has one well de-
fined wrinkle for each year of his age over
nine. If, for instance, hoI SO has three
wrinkles, be is twelve; if four, thirteen !;
Add the number of wrinkles to nine and
you will always get at the age.
