A-GRAND STEEPLE CHASE.

AS if there were not sufficient excitement
at the usual horse-race, these meetings on
the turf nearly always close with a grand
steeple chase This kind of race combines
all the excitement of the regular race, with
the super-added element of danger which
seems to give further zest 10 The sport.
Horses, and good ones at that, often receive
severe injuries, which render them practi-
cally useless for long periods. At least
this was the state of affairs until owners
and breeders of fine stock began TO freely
use ST. JACOBS On, the Great German
Remedy for man and beast This invalu-
able article TO horsemen has so grown into
favor on account OF its phenomenal efficacy
in diseases of domestic animals, especially
the horse, that it would be difficult indeed

To REGULATE TIE BEARING OF APPLE

cussion, but no suggestion in regard to it
has ever been made practical except the
one which dictates careful attendance and
the rcoderate annual pruning of the trees,
with high fertilization Of the soil. all the
famously productive apple trees on record
have stood in rich soil, moist, but not
wet. Careful pluning, manuring and
mulching will, as nearly as possible, secure
good annual crops from apple trees of any
variety worthy of cultivation. Under this
system small orchard of Williams Favo-
rite near Boston is the chief support of a
family. Thirty-eight trees of Fameuse in
