The once quite prevalent practice of chopping
off horses tails is now almost abandoned. Ii
was supposed to make an improvement i'm the
animals appearance. and was often accompanied
by cutting the name short. Some other old bar
bafiSins OF IA lesser grade survive vet in the use
of horses. One of the most defensible proba-
bly, is the /" check-Sen." Undoubtedly a horse
looks much better with his head up. hut he
ought To have strength and spirit to hold il
up himself. and if domestication has weak
ened the breed. much the worse for the
breed The checked" horse certainly can
not travel as easily. for the restraint is
unnatural: and every horse attests this by the
long stretch and half audible sigh of relief he
gives on being released. Another relic of un-
reason i'm hOrse-using is the appropriately
named ''hlinder." If intended to serve as a
surface for gilt ornaments it might be attached
to some other part of the harness: if TO hide the
uglinesS of the animals eye the eve might be
improved by removal which would also in
crease tractability. The probable theory
which. apparently. nobody has ventured to defy
custom by subjecting to the test of reasoning
Is that the horse will not start at objects ap-
preaching from the rear if he is cut off from see
ing them until close at hand. But what frightens
him is his not distinctly seeing and understand
ing an object. With the binder on ANYTHING
from behind cannot be seen-though it may be
heard-untl it comes suddenly upon him: with
this thing Off could see it out of the tail OF his
vision. The defect of the ..blinder'' is that it
does not go far enough; it should inclose the eve
from every direction. A simple improvement
in harness might also be made to give
aid in controlling the animal. Instead of
attaching the lines direct as now let them
pass over pulley on the headstall. one end held
in the hand as now and the other fastened to
some fixed part of the harness. This simple
contrivance. in accordance with well-known
laws OF mechanics. would exactly double the
power exerted by the driver Ii is often the
driver himself who needs harness and whip

kicks him in the abdomen. and vents upon
him every burst of bad temper. however
caused. The patience of the creature under
treatment which would Justify resort TO his natu-
raj means Of defence, is so marvellous as to be a
good offset against his absurd cowardice But
that very cowardce, nine times i'm ten is the
fault of Impotence and c:relessness in drivers
Owners who value hOrsetiesh and human life
should see to it that their horses are properly
introduced TO every object they are liable to en-
countef-not excepting the death-dealing bcy-
Gle. the bugbear of our park commissioner
and that their drivers have enough sense and
patience to justify their going about on two legs

A Good Thing well Done

On the invitation of Mrs. j. P. Baxter
ample accommodations were provided at Pine
Point for the whole family of the Female
Orphan Asylum during the month OF Septem-
Der. This most generous bounty was made
easily available by ready helper, Mr.. Albert
s. Fuller, who, having the children in his
heart, freely took their bundles in his cart to
she Boston & Maine, which road, with accus-
toned liberality, furnished free transportation
for the joyous little orphans and all necessary
supplies to the Hightville station and return.
The gratuitous use of the telephone gave the
managers daily oversight over the children so
that without illness or accident, under the
faithful care of the vigilant matron and her as
slstants, they returned to their city home after
a month of iiew and happy life,to be perpetual
ed long in pleasant memory.

West Oxford Fair.

sFRYEBURG, Oct. II.
The people were sin attendance to-day in
large numbers, although somewhat diminished
by the cloudy sky and frosty air Of the early
morning. The meagre exhibition of vegeta-
bles received very few additions during the
day, the farmers generally attributing the ad-
mitted deficiency to the unfavorable season.
rather than any fault or lack Of interest of
their own.
The town teams, both of oxen and steers,
contained some fine Jokes, many Of them find
ing purchasers on the ground. The Fessen-
den Bros. OF Brownfield exhibited some choice
full blood Durham stock, bulls, steers and
heifers- selected originally from the herd Of
Warren Percival of Vassalboro.
A. R. Jenness of Fryeburg, who only keeps
choice animals, contributed an important
part of the show in his Durham oxen, Jersey
COWS and Berkshire swine.
S. Chandler of Stowe exhibited some of his
trained steers-well known at former county
fairs.
In the vegetable hall, in the department OF
potatoes, the Burbank, Dunmoro and Clark
varieties took the lead although quality evil
IDENTIFY gave place to size. There were some
SAMPLES of wheat and also OF cultivated cram
berries on the tables. In the poultry list the
Plymouth Rocks and Dominiques were among
the best; with one fine coop of ducks, Mas
tiers Perry aud Harmon are entitled to credit
for their display of English rabbits.
The exhibition Of fruit alone saved this de-
partnaent from entire failure. We counted
some 100 plates Of apples-7anging from the
Emperor Alexander to the Transcendent Grab;
with some half-dozen samples of pears. and
one or two ine plates Of peaches and grapes.
The ladies' contributed round half hundred
jars Of preserves jellies, marmalades, &C.,
and dozen or more packages of butter. Some
fine samples Of maple sugar were also dis
played.
The exhibition Of household manufactures
was quite creditable, embracing home made
flannel, cloth, frocking, carpeting, yarn,
stockings, mittens and gloves. The large and
fine display of millinery. however, seemed TO
have more attractions for the ladies.

The State street church held a meeting
Tuesday evening to see what action should be
taken in regard to the proposal to invite the
Board of Foreign Missions to hold their an
nual meeting for October, 1882 in Portland,
and the matter was referred to committee
consisting of the deacons and Mr.. Dana. The
Board if it comes here will meet with the
State street church. The expense to the
churches would be about $500, of which the
State street church would be assessed $1,000,
and the Second Parish and High street churches
about $500 each, and the other churches small
sums. The general feeling seems to be in
favor of the holding of the annual meeting
here. The committee appointed at the meet
ing of the State street church Tuesday even
ing will confer with like committees to be
named by the other Congregational churches of
this city.
