Harness Sores on Horses.

THERE are few things which cause
more delay and trouble in farm work
during the hot months of summer than
TIN Falls and sores that come upon the
shoulders and backs of work horses. A
vast amount of hard work must be done.
and the animals are strong and well
enough to do it, provided there were
not these aainful sores that prevent
their applying themselves to the labor.
A horse with shoulder or back gals, or
both, suffers pain, when it is put into
the harness. The direct cause OF these
sores is the friction to which the parts
are subjected, combined with the ca
cessive heat and great flow of sweat.
inflammation and chatting Of the skin are
produced much more readily in hot than
in cold weather, because the condi-
tions of greater friction are then pres
emit. The preventive is in reducing the
friction to the least possible amount An
the first place, the harness must tit
closely and smoothly to the form
of the horse, that the weight Of
the load may be uniformly distributed
v e the surface beneath the harness.
Secondly, the horse should be. in a
healthy state, that the muscles and skin
may be of their normal toughness, and
the sweating not unnaturally p~rofuse.
This involves the proper care and feed
ing of the horse. A poorly kept an
NAL, or one not in good health. will be
come sore more readily than q in
good health. When the sores are a.
ready formed, 8 speedy cure is the thing
needed. Sponge carefully the aff1 icted
parts, to remove all accommodations from
sweat. Then battle with a lotion of
alum and ~tannin, with q little laudanum
added. All pressure upon the sore
should be removed by 3 proper adjust
ment of the harness, and. if necessary,
keep the horse from work until cured.

Care of Fruit Trees.

A CORRESPONDENT of the New York
Tribune makes the following sensible
suggestion upon feeding fruit trees:
when enriching the soil so as to pro-
cure o good crop of corn and potatoes.
do not forget to apply a liberal dress
ing to the too often neglected orchard.
Rotation of crops cannot be followed
with fruit trees, hence the grester
necessity of Systematically restoring
to the soil, so far rs may be done. those
elements consumed in the production
of q crop of fruit. After an orchard
comes into bearing it is commonly con-
sidered able thenceforth TO take care
of itself-the owner seldom failing to
expect fair returns, and the orchard
seldom failing to disappoint. The
reason is obvious; the trees are slowly
starved. and the fruit becomes scraggy
or small in quantity. Alternate bear
ing wears are a result of this treatment,
as is shown by the abundant crops
that may be obtained every year by
thorough cultivation. provided frosts
does not interfere. The barren year is
natures method of aiding the tree to
collect from rain and atmosphere ma
terial for 8 productive year. 1t is just
as reasonable to expect that 3 good
crop of corn can be tafen annually for
a series of years from q field to which
nothing has been restored as to expect
fruit to maintain its excellence on soil
that is constantly growing thinner and
poorer in needed material.

everybody knows Of pate

Almost everybody knows Of patent
-four, but not every one understands
what /, is. Stripped Of ,~echnicaliiies,
this is about the story OF Its manuiac-
ture: The best -four used to be made 81
winter wheat. Spring wheat yielded
either much less in quantity. or else 50
much Of the bran got into the flour IN ITS
manufacture that its color Was intolcr-
ably dark. The wheat would be ground
and then bolted. In the refuse-the
bran and middlings-would be included
a large portion Of the weight Of The
spring wheat, and this would sell more
particularly for feed for horses. Now
the best Of -four, and the most expensive,
is made Of this very refuse Of the old
fashioned process. 1t all came out Of
the discovery of a way Ia draw out the
bran. Under the new process the wheat
is ground about as before. The first
result is an ordinary -four sold for ex-
p~ortation. Then the remainder Is taken
and put upon great horizontal sleeves,
and while agitation is going on there
an ingenious system of draft is rushing
up through, and carries off the bran.
What is left is the glutinous portion Of
the wheat, the most nutritious and most
productive, and put Of this, purified now
by the drawing off of the bran, we get
our new process flour. The result OF
the discovery Of the process has been TO
make the poor spring wheat OF MIN
nesota and upper Wisconsin the most
valuable kind Of grain.

Judge Blacks Choice.

The great Democratic lawyer, the
Hon. J. S. Black, Of Pennsylvania, is
now in Europe, and, in his absence, the
Republican organs have been quoting
him rather freely as the special apollo
gist for Gen. Garfield; but a letter just
written to the editor of the Philadelphia
Times by the veteran lawyer puts rather
damper upon their delight. "If,"
says JUDI; Black, she (Garfield) would
carry the principles which regulate his
private life into his public conduct, he
would make the best Chief Magistrate
we have ever had. But he will act for
the interest of his party, as he has acted
all his lifetime and that will require him
to take the advice which Stephens gave
to Montpelius in the buckshot war. |

Corn Fodder.

The practice of growing a crop of
corn fodder to supplementtbe failing mid.
summer pasture is growing more and
more in favor every season. During
July the feed becomes dry and brown,
and COWS fall off in both milk and flesh
if there is not some provision made for
tiding over the time until fall rains have
revived the pastures, or the cattle are
turned into the newly seeded fields,
greatly to the detriment of the latter.
This habit, with the equally pernicious
one of allowing stock to roam over now
ing lands from the time the hay is cut
until cold weather, is gradually giving
away to the sensible one of providing
fodder crops. The stalk crup is OF great
Importance in this connection. Corn
for feeding; both in green state during
summer and dry one during winter can
hardly be overestimated in value.
There is indeed, but little if any diff.
ference of opinion as to the merits of
fodder though there exists variety Of
practices concerning the manner of
raising and curing the crop. Sweet corn
has come to be preferred over other
varieties for this purpose as there is not
near the waste to this fodder there is to
the gourd seed sorts. The majority of
farmers now drill the seed in, though
occasionally, it is sown broadcast. A
plan which brings good results is plant
ing in drills three feet apart and about
six inches between the stalks. Thicker
planting will make more fodder, but it
loses in quality what is gained in guam
tity. Many of our best farmers are
using Only one to one and half bushels
ofseed per acre. This amount gives
yield sufficiently thin to allow the stalks
to stand up 10 ordinary summer weather
to gain the full effect of sunlight and air
For early use the first planting of fodder
corn should he early, of course, but the
seed can be put in any time during July
with good results, as it makes heavy
growth on land comparatively dry and
in dry weather.
During the season the crop oug ght to
be cultivated several times. 1t is pest to
begin as soon as the plants are out of the
ground by running a cultivator close to
the rows. Corn fodder may be fed green
when two feet high.
All forage crops give best results
which are cut before they are out OF
bloom. Corn is no exception to this
rule, but owing to the difficulty some
experience in curing it in an immature
STATE it is often allowed to become too
ripe before cutting. Chemical analysis
has demonstrated that fodder deterio-
rates in two ways by standing, namely,
by the lessened proportion Of aloumi-
noids and by decreased digestibility'
Another objection to permitting the
stalks to stand until the ears are per.
fected is that they grow so tall that they
are troublesome to handle, and are more
liable to fall and lodge under a hard
stone. Furthermore, early cut fodder is
in itselfa complete ration, rich enough
in albuminoids to make good feed with
out mixing with other materials. Last,
but by no means least, the grcener the
crop when taken off the land the less ex.
haustion to the soi.-New York World.
