egg WATERING Work HoRsEs--Horses
need drink az often as 4 man who works
hard that does not drink bur once in five
hours? But this is the WAY work horses
are watered generally. 1t is cruelty to
compel the team to work in the field from
morn till noon and from noon TIL night
without drink. \ draught of good water
is just as refreshing and cooling to the
horse as to the man. Perhaps there may
not be water handy or convenient in all
eases, but it will pay to take water along
for the team, if such be the case. Horses
at hard work in the plow, or harrow, or
mower, get very thirsty when not watered
between meals and then drink to excess st
meal times, thereby causing founder, collie
and many other ailments.

do not thnk we are as badly hurt rs we first

Union on llth. to give Col. Thompson and pnrty
rousing welcome, for we could not cross the
river ; but nevertheless we all right, AMI if
they will come again we will do cur level best
to meet them. We will certainly do 50 at the

Our crop prospects very fair. Cotton
is not opening ns fast rs it did last year We
have just commenced picking ami last year by
this time we were nearly half done.
The farmers arc beginning to sow oats and
think the acreage of small grain that will be
put in this year will exceed that of last which
is certainly move in the right direction.
We are gcttin- awrully tired of having our
corn cribs and smoke houses SO far away; our
cribs and smoke houses are in Chicago, Cinc:n-
natl, 81. Louis, etc, and ii is awful expensive
to get n piece of meat or n bushcl of corn. 1t
is getting too serious with us to make joke of
any longer, and We are going to move them home,
If there is any joke in it others have hal it
