Raising a Colt.

A colt is regarded as an incumbrance,
because he is useless until he arrives at
suitable age for work; but it really
costs very little, compared with his
value, to raise colt. When the period
arrives at which the colt can do service,
the balance sheet will show in his favor,
for young horses always command good
prices if they are sound and well bro
ken. One of the difficulties in the way
is the incumbrance placed on the dam,
which intcrferes with her usefulness on
the farm. especially if the colt is foaled
during the early part of the spring.
Some farmers have their colts foaled in
the fall; but this is open to two objec-
tons. In the first place, spring is the
natural time, for then the grass is be-
ginning to grow, and Nature seems to
have provided that most animals should
bring forth their young in a season be-
yond the reach of severe cold and with
for the following winter.
Again, when colt is foaled in the
fall, he must pass through period Of
several months confinement in the sta
BILE, without exercise, or else be more or
less chilled with cold from time to time.
Should this happen, the effect of any
bad treatment will be afterward mani
tested and no amount of attention can
again elevate the colt to that degree of
hardness and soundness of body that
naturally belongs to a spring colt. Be-
sides, colt foaled in the spring will
outgrow one foaled in the fall. An OBJ
lection to spring colts may be partially
overcome by plowing in the fall, or
keeping the brood mares for very light
work, with the colts at liberty to accom-
pany them always.
A colt needs but very little feeding il
the pasture is good and there is water
running through it. He needs then only
small feed of oats at night, no corn;
and, if he is given hay, it is not neces-
sary to give him a full ration. What he
will consume from the barn will not
be one-third his value when he is three
years old, and if he is well-bred the
gain is greater. nj
When farmer raises his horses, he
knows their disposition, constitution,
and capacity. 1t is the proper way to
get good, sound, seryiceable horses On
the farm. 1t should not be overlooked
that a colt must be tenderly treated
from birth and must be fondled and
handled as much as possible He should
never hear harsh word, but should be
taught to have confidence in everybody
he sees or knows. This is an easy
matter if his training begins from the
time he is day old He can be thus
gradually broken without difficulty
and will never be troublesome. No such
thing as whip should be allowed in
stable that contains colt. Colts
should not be worked until three years
old, and then lightly at first, as they 90
not fully mature until they are six years
old, and with some breeds of horses
even later. Mares with foals at their
side should be fed on the richest and
most nourishing food.-PtiEaaslpAia

Veal Stew: Boil about two and a
half pounds of the breast of veal in wa
ter, just enough to cover, for one hour
and half, add dozen potatoes and
boil half an hour longer. Then add a
pint of rich milk, thicken and season and
pour over slices of toast.-Rural NeU
Yorker. By
"A worm somewhat resembling the
true army worm has, says a Kentucky
exchange, done much damage to barley
crops in that State by cutting off the
stem just below the head and letting the
grain fall to the ground. 1t is described
as being little darker and its locomo-
ton is different from the worm that ap.
pears in wheat. -
Satin can be renovated in the same
way that velvet often is-that is, by
taking hot iron, placing a wet cloth
over it, and holding the satin in the
steam, the wrong side nearer the heat.
OF course, when the satin is worn off
this does no good, but when it is crushed
or wrinkled the effect is surprisingly
good.-N. Y. Post.
Cabbage Fried with Cream: Chop
a quart of cold boiled cabbage, fry it
fifteen minutes with sufficient butter to
prevent burning, season it highly with
pepper and salt, and stir into it half a
cupful of cream or of milk, with a tea
spoonful of flour mixed with it; let it
cook five minutes longer, and serve it
hot.--Prarie Farmer.
A Missouri farmer writes: AS soon
as l find an animal in distress from
bloat, from eating wet grass or clover,
l wet it along the back with cold we'll
water, and also place a large cloth or
blanket of several thicknesses over the
paunch, after being saturated with all
the cold water that it will absorb, and
over that a dry blanket. If the cold
water is properly applied, one will not
have to wait long for cure.
Melons and Squashes: Last year,
as test, pinched the ends of the long
main shoots of the melons, squashes and
cucumbers, and left some to run at their
own sweet will. One squash plant sent
out a single stem reaching more than
forty feet, but did not bear any fruit.
Another plant was pinched until it
formed a compact mass of intermingling
side shoots eight feet square and it bore
sixteen squashes. The difference in
favor of the yield of an acre of melons
treated by this process may easily
amount to 100 barrels "-P Practical
Farmer.
-Tapioca Pudding: One cup of
tapico, one quart of milk, four eggs, one
tablespoonful melted butter, and two
tablespoonfuls of sugar; nutmeg. Soak
the tapioca four hours in two cups of
cold water; it should absorb it all.
Warm the milk slightly, and soak. the
tapioca in this an hour longer Rub
butter and sugar to a cream, and having
beaten the eggs very light, whip all
these together before putting in tapioca
and milk. Pour into buttered pud-
ding-dish, CRATE little nutmeg on top,
apd set in the oven. In five minutes
stir up carefully from the bottom to
hinder the solid settling of the tapioca.
Shut the oven and bake until 'sset' and
nicely Drowned. Eat with pudding

send to table warm. tbs good cold with

FOREIGN GOSSIP.

Venice and Amsterdam are the
cities of bridges. The first has 450, the
last 800. London has 10, Vienna 20, and
Berlin will soon have 80. Altogether
the most beautiful and striking bridge
in Europe is that over the Moldau at
Prague.

They pulled down chimney at the

The recent solar eclipse calls to
mind an incident of Francois Arago,
who gained among his simple country
neighbors an almost uncanny reputa-
ton by his accurate prediction of total
eclipse. Not long afterwarG he was
candidate for election to the National
Assembly, and was elected by an al
most unanimous vote of his constituents.
The wealth and government influence
of the rival candidate created no impress
sion upon the voters. s'No, no." they
cried "we must vote for Arago, for, if
we don't, he may get mad and hurl an
other eclipse at us!"
The newest fashion in Paris, that of
wearing black underclothing, has be-
come the Juror among the women of the
highest aristocracy. The undergar-
ments, like those of the Eastern odal-
isques, are composed usually of silk,
generally of what is called foulard des
Indies. From head to foot the Partisan
lady appears, when divested of the outer
robe, as just emerging from an ink bath
the stockings of black silk, the slip
pers of black velvet, the corsets of black
satin, and adorned with black lace, and
the petticoats of black surah, filed
around the bottom with a stiff mousse
of black illusion or net.
The following clause was found in
the will of Yorkshire rector: "Seeing
that my daughter Anne has not availed
herself of my advice touching the OBJ
jectionable practice of going about with
her arms bare up to the elbows, my will
is that, should she continue at my death
in this violation of the modesty of her
sex, all the goods, chattels, money,
lands, and all other things that have
devised to her for the maintenance of
her future life shall pass to the eldest
son of my sister Caroline. Should any
one take exception to this as being too
severe, answer that license in the dress
of woman is mark of a deprayed
mind"

Emerson's Personal Appearance.

His personal humility was as great as
his personal dignity. He entertained
all men with the same quiet geniality of
department; and his attitude toward
even the most ignorant or juvenile of his
fellow-creatures was uniformly that of
one who seeks ediication rather than to
edify. He knew how to ask the right
and searching question, and how to ex-
tract from the clumsy or incomplete
answer the core of significance that
made it valuable. Thus he increased
the self-respect of those with whom he
conversed, while never for moment
stimulating their selfish vanity, making
them feel their worth as men without
exaggerating their Importance as indi-
viduals. Yet few men can have had
more noticeable peculiarities of face,
figure and demeanor than Emerson.
Who that had once seen him could for
get his appearancep Who ever spoke in
his melodious, measured tones? or
whose smile so we'll expressed the self
command that does not deal in laugh
ter? Yet he was distinct with distinct
to his fellows, but precisely from the
concentration in him of their more sig
nificant and controlling traits. There
was something of the eagle in his aspect,
and physical awkwardness that some
how expressed the highest degree of in
grained culture and refinement. His
ordinary gait in walking was that of a
man whose attention is so earnestly fixed
upon something on the horizon that his
body is conveyed forward rather by at
traction than volition. 1t was progress
sion in its simplest form, steady and
uniform, but without the least embel-
lishment of grace or elegance; and yet
there was in it something indicative of
I the nature of the man, that made mere
grace and elegance seem semi-civilized.
In his lectures he stood before his audi
ence in the unstudied pose of New
England farmer. st ~ 4i
/. He had no gestures; sufficient for
him were the modnlations of the voice,
and the occasional lifting OF the head
and Frightening of the visage. Never
theless, few speakers comprehended the
art and even the articles of oratory
better than he. Every word that passed
his lips was so uttered and presented ss
to acquire its fullest force and meaning !;
and no one else could have delivered his
lectures so effectively and captivatingly
as he. The hand that he gave you in
greeting was large and firm; it held
yours for few moments in a warm and
steady clasp. There was no vigorous
and impulsive hand-shaking, but the
light of composed cordiality that ema-
mated from his features made the more
demonstrative forms of greeting seem
vulgar and inexpensive. 1t is unneces-
sary to extend these details; they
amount to saying that intercourse with
Emerson tended to make you realize
the practical superiority of the spiritual
over the physical part of man. The
lesson is no unimportant one, especially
in these days when we are gagged and
crippled with symbols the meaning OF
which we have forgotten, and which we
consequently misapply and misinter-
