Horses In tho Harvest Field.

While it is pretty hard work for men
during the harvest, 50 it is for the horses,
but there are many teams that come out at
the end of harvesting as fat and in as good
condition as they were at the commence
ment. The great difficulty in this respect
is the absence of water from the larger
fields. Most any farmer has q spring,
well, lake or stream of water near to his
barn or stables, but has none in the field,
and team that is engaged in hauling
harvester or mower hot day suffers
from the want of it. Horses require
frequent watering, and it is good plan
where water is not convenient to fill a
barrel or two in the morning or at noon
and haul 1t into the field where it can be
readily used for the teams. In conse-
quence Of the high prices and scarcity of
grain this year, farmers who have not an
abundance of food for their teams will be
obliged to observe good deal Of economy
in feeding them. Teams that have to
work hard every day during the harvest
season should always be comfortably
stabbed at night. They should never be
suffered to be turned out into the pastures
or on the prairies, where most of their
time would be occupied in fighting mos
quitoes, buffalo gnats and other trouble
some insects. Put them in cool, COM
Portable stable, with plenty of fresh, good
hay and provender or grain. good soft
bedding. and light linen blankets on them
| as protection from the insects, and it
will be found they will do much better
than when turned out to grass.

THERE are hundreds of rich men in this
community that are pickpockets; hun
dreds that are members of churches, who
if they were searched would be found
picking the pockets of the poor. The
most ingenious methods are employed to
preserve their property from inspection,
passing it out Of their hands, so that they
can swear that they do not own it and do
not know anything about it. All these
methods of refusing to pay taxes are but
concealed and indirect robberies, and the
common people are intelligent enough to
know them, and when we see that they
are prejudiced against the rich we can see
that there is some ground for it. -Beecher.
