The evaporation Of black raspber-
RES by the new process is SO successful
that it keeps up the price of this fruit
during the summer. Three and half
quarts Of green fruit viii make one

The Horse.

No other domestic animal is or can be
as thoroughly adapted to the wants q
man as the horse. When from cattle
we get their milk and beef, and from
oxen their dranght. we are done with
the bovine race, and can find no other
possible use for it. The hog is useful
only for what it furnishes for food and
mechanical purposes in its bodily es-
sence. From the sheep we expect only
fleece and flesh. But what, outside OF
food purposes and not d few races OF
people would not make this exception
do we not expect of the horsep For
work or Tor pleasure he is the quick,
aeady. willing, intelligent and capaple
gervant Of the human race. He enters
with most cheerfulness into the hardest
of labor. carries mans heavy burdens.
hauls his heavy loads, breaks up his
tough lands, cultiFates his crops, mar
kets his produce doing everything. in
fact, that his rare intelligence at all fits
him for In administering to our pleas
nres he is the same unfailing friend.
The sporting man, the RAN. OF business,
and the man OF leisure alike 60 to the
horse for their recreation. Entering
with the keenest zest into the excite
ment OF the speed-ring, he furnishes by
far the most popular sport of the day
In the shafts or under the saddle he
gladly rests and refreshes the worried
brain worker. the imprisoned mer-
chant, and the wearied farmer He is
alike subservient to child and adult, to
the eentler or to the sterner sex, refus-
ING no service which his hereulean
strength will enable him to perform.
The breeding of horses has. perhaps,
received more thought and unremittings
study than any other class of stock. aid
The result is that there are breeds,
strains and families perfectly adapted to
every special use. The draught horse,
the general purpose horse, the harness
horse, the driver, the saddler, the trot-
fer, the runner-haye all been bred to
exactly fill the bill required of them.
{ Is it any wonder that in such q creat-s
ure man finds his best friend in all the
brute creationp Is it strange that the
tenderest regard thus frequently springs
ND between master and servant In
deed the man who regards his horse
with other than kindly feelings is un-
worthy of the name. Pittsburgh Stock-
