Chambers in Horses.

Every horse owner is more or less &C
quainted with that loathsome disease, the
Glanders, and every one should be awar,
that il is both contagious and fatal not only
To horses, but also to mankind. The fact
that the disease has to this day baflled al.
treatment, is sufficient reason why the de
lection Of glanders in q stable is always
looked upon as serious. If the disease al
ways assumed the 50 me characters, il every
glindered horse presented the three speca
ymptoms essentially belonging 10 it,name
y, the greensh, sticky, and at times blood,
discharge at the nose, the hard, painless
and adherent swollen glands at the jaws

lron the cartilage OF the cavities oil II Q
'ose, there would be no difficulties II
ecognizing the disease, apd condemninl
he animal thus afflicted as most dangerous
;Sut this is not always the case. This di-
rase assumes many forms. Sometimes only
slight glandular enlargement, again dis
;harges from the nostrils, while in third
animal neither Of these will exist, and only
small ulcers will be detected in the upper
angle of the nostrils. Still the animal is
just as dangerous as if it showed all the
symptoms fully developed; IN fact, even
more dangerous, fOr,while in this condition,
it may apparently be in perfect health, its
skin presenting nothing unusual 10 the or
binary observer. Toe horse may remain
IN good condition, feel as well as eyer, be
able TO do its work, aud remain in this con.
dition for months, and communicate the
ganders TO many animals who may come
III contact with II. II Is necessary to detect
the disease at the start, and for this no one
should be better qualified than the regular
Veterinarians he who has by his studies be
come familiar with the different aspects Of
the disease. II once detected, there must
be no hesitation; certainty Of the existence
OF the disease should mean death to the
animal affected. Unless it is killed, most
serious, even fatal consequences, may
follow.
The duty Of tho owner Of the animal in
a suspicious condition is, To hsye il exam
ined at once. Ifthere is no doubt, it should
be isolated and rather than wuit for the de-
yelopment OF all the symptoms, which may
take long time, inoculation Of the matter
from the discharge can be made on an old
hO rse, dog, or rabbit, but still better on
old mule or a donkey. This inoculation
will produce glanders, no matter how small
the quantity of the virus if taken from a
glandered horse.-President LIAuTAED, in
the American Agrieulturist for October.

A Straw Shelter.


Mr. John NJ. Stahl sends TO the american
Agriculturist the following directions for
making straw shelter: Set posts, forked
at the top, firmly in the ground, aud lay in
tho forks strong poles to support other poles
or rails that carry the roofing straw. Nail
poles or boards against the east, north, and
west sides, sometimes against the south
side also, and against these pile staw to the
top. A southern slope is preferable. Cut
a ditch just outside the straw, around the
higher ground side, to carry off water, bank
ing the excayated earth against the straw
Set the supporting posts deep and firm, to
prevent heaving by frosis or sagging by
the pushing of cattle. For the roof, put
straw upon the poles or rails, carrying ii up
to point like straw stack: To hold the roof
down and keep it sharp pointed, tie togeth
er two heavy blocks or poles, with a foot or
so of frope between them, aud hang these
over the top of the straw, running down
the sides. [Fur heavy or high roofs foul

And Great Was the Fall.

Col. X. P. YorkstOD, of Campbell press
fame, attended the skating rink yesterday.
He put on the skates and started, but did
not 60 far before there was fall. His
plug hat kept on rolling, and he got up
smiling as usual, and tried it again. One
OF the young ladies, who is q good skater,
thinking he was one of the awkward squad,
offered her services to conduct him
around the room. He went flying, cir
cling as fast As enc of his cylinder presses
could revolve. We are happy to say, he,
like his presses, made a good impression,
not on the floor, but on the young lady.
She says if she could have him in training
four days she could make him as pretty =
skater as he is apretty man. The Colonel
was highly delighted with his sport and
his visit to Moberly. We all expect him
at the next editorial convention to write
an essay on what he thinks about roller
skates. We forgot to state that when he
fell last, he called one OF the boys and
asked him if he had long tail coat that
he could wear to the tailor shop: one of
his bands had bursted and part of his
pants needed OVERLAPPING, although the
color in his face was good.-Moberly Mon

This fact preyed heavily on her mind, but

to telegram informing him of his wife's
supposed dangerous illness, change for
the better was noticed and her speedy re-
cOvery vas looked for.
On Friday, however, she grew worse,
but remained conscious. and talked with
her husband regarding her death. She
was not afraid to die, she said, and
we're ii not for leaving him and her
five little children, she would be happy.
Friday evening she commenced sinking
rapidly, and then, for the first time, Mr.
Gill recognized the fact that the end was
rear. She remained conscious, though,
almost to the last, and although unable to
speak. her deme amor was such as 10 con-
vince those present that she knew all that
was said and done.
The decreased was born at Springfield,
ILL.,, in 1850, and for years her parents
lived the next door to the late President
Lincoln. From Springfield the family re-
moved to Wooaburn, and thence to Bunker

Mr.. Gill, and they made that city their

A sunbeam glad aDc gay,
And tenderly il crept within
A cavern dark AID gray.
And 10! where'er its golden CLEAN
Fell lightly on the VII,
A thousaud hidden gems threw Oh
The gloom's enshrouding pail,
And flashed their brilliant hues TO meet
The srnbeam's sweet caress,
Fer looking heavenward again,
1t soon had found egress.
Thus, oft in life the heart is sad,
And filed With gloom and searr;
And faith itself lies dead beneath
pail Of hopeless tears;
When 10 /! some word by angels sent.
Drops down like falling wings,
And tenderly and pityingiy
Its gentle comfort brings;
And gems Of hope that long have lain.
Bound down by chains OF woe,
Flash tack their newly wakened trust,
With glad responsive glow.
