Stumbling Horses.
Pittsburg Stoc

Pittsburg Stockman.
Some good horses are addicted TO stumbling
while walking moving in a slow trot. A we'll
versed veterinarian states that there are two
causes that would tend to produce this faulty
action; one general weakness IN the muscular
system, such as would be noticed in tired
horse; the other, a weakness of the exterior mus
cles of the leg, brought about by carrying too
much on the toe. TO effect a cure, he adds
tighten the weight of each front shoe about four
ounces; have the toe of the shoe made of steel
instead of iron it will wear longer; have it
rounded off about the same it would be when
one-third worn out, in order to prevent tripping;
allow one weeks rest; have the legs showefed
for few minutes at time with cold water
through hose, in order to create a spray; then
rub dry, briskly, from the chest down to the
foot Give walking exercise daily during this
week for about an hour twice day. When
you commence driving again omit the slow jog
either walk or send him along at a sharp trot for
a mile or two, then walk away; but do not speed
for at least several weeks. By this means the
habit of stumbling from either of the above
causes will be pretty well overcome.

Preparing for the Garden.



The success of a garden depends much on its
early preparation and planting in spring. Crops
which do not need putting in till warm weather
arrives, are greatly benefited by the thorough
preparation and the pulverizing and enriching
the soil. 1t is WELL therefore, to apply in winter.
all the manure which may be wanted. Pulver-
lied by frost, and leached into the soil by rains
and melting SHOWS, it will be worth more than if
spread in Jumps after spring opens and is i'm
perfectly nterrnixed. All new gardens for vege-
tables should be arranged for horse cultiva-
ton, by extending the plants in drills across it
from end to end. This will greatly reduce the
labor of keeping it Clean and the few minutes
required to cultivate it once week will be
trihing compared with long and laborious hand
labor. The crops viii grow vigorously by keep
ing the soil constantly mellow and clean by the
frequent passing of the narrow one horse har
row or cultivator. Gardens which are already
laid out may be modified by Encouragement so
that much, if not most may ne subjected to
horse cultivation, and the amount of hand-
hoeng materially lessened. There are many
crops which are commonly planted in beds, and
kept clean, if at all, with hand labor, which may
be arranged in drills for this purpose.
Farmers too often allow the garden to take the
last chance and to remain neglected till the field
crops have had full attention. As consequence,
weeds get the start vegetables are crowded with
weeds the labor of hoeing is greatly increased,
and the owner concludes that the garden is a
costly luxury which does not pay But if well
managed. it will pay better than anything else.
Raspberries, Strawberries euTrants, asparagus,
cabbages, beets turnips, etc, may all be
planted in rows and cultivated with horse, and
in this way an acre need not cost more for Guilt

ONTARIO 3 WESTERN.
The Condition of the Company Satisfactory
to the Stockholders.


New YORK, Jan. 16.-At the Ontario & West
Mr.. Jordan moved that the meeting adjourn for
thirty days, and that the investigating commit
tee be made to report the condition of the
company. There was great excitement. The
meeting was crowded. Dos PESOS represented
Jordan and Judge Green the Winslow faction.
Mr.. Houston, chairman refused to put certain
motions, and Mr.. Jordan put them himself and
declared his resolution carried Houston de-
clared the whole thing out of order, and there
was lively discussion between counsel, and
finally on Jordan's motion, the meeting ad-
journed till half past l. 1t is ru1nofed that the
the action of Jordan was probably inspired by S.
j. Tilden At the meeting G. H. Woerishoffer,
who was challenged by Jordans counsel, cast his
vote for the regular ticket headed by Horace
Porter. The present board. of directors hold a
sufficient number of proxies to elect the board in
their own interest.
At the afternoon session President Winslow,
in the course of his report, said: 1.-The funded
debt of the company, which was stated to be
So, 81, 1898 Sept. 30, 1888 has been reduced 10
81, 22l, JOG, which amount includes all sums due
and claims for which the company may, in any
way, be liable under its construction contracts.
One-half (23, 600 shares] of the capital stock of
the West Shore & Ontario terminal company is
owned by this company, and jointly with the
New York, West Shore q Buffalo, it is the lessee
of the terminal property at Weehawken and
New York. Unless some action is taken to fund
the floating debt we may be unable to
provide for the unfunded debt without
great sacrifice to its personal property and in
jury to its traffic
After Winslow had answered all questions put
by Treasurer Jordan and the stockholders he
was congratulated upon the clearness of his re
plies. Many persons, including Jordan, admit
ted that although they had come to the meet
ing disbelieving that they could be satisfied with
the condition of the road, they found, after an
examination, that the presidents statements
were true. At the close of the meeting the tel
lers announced the following board OF directors
elected:
By the common stockholders William Adams,
Charles J. Canda Thomas C. Clarke, George B.
Green, Charles Bald.
By the preferred stockholders: G. T. Winslow,
C. F. Werishoffer, Henry Amy, Theo. Houston,
Howard Mansfield, William CULVER, j. l.. Mes
bit, Horace Porter.
The former ticket was elected by $4,000,
against l4,000 for the opposition ticket The
latter ticket was unanimously elected.

Cutting Down the Pass-List.

Light traffic and small earnings are causing
railroad managers to scan their pass-ist closely,
and cut off annual passes wherever it is prudent
so to do. That on many of the roads of this
country there are too many people who ride
free is doubtless true, and wedding out VIC lid
be highly proper President Roberts, of the
Pennsylvania, has issued orders that most of
the passes now used on that road-many thou
sands i'll all-shall be taken up. A list of the
numbers of the passes to be recalled, with the
name of the holder is furnished the conductors
and each pass as it is presented will be taken up
and only those reissued who are really entitled
to them Were superintendent consulted more
freely to who are entitled to passes, the ques-
ton could, doubtless, be more justly settled

THE SITUATION.
Prudent and Intelligent Men Now Needed to
Manage Matters.

Prudent and Intelligent Men Now Needed to
Manage Matters.
The situation with the western roads is daily
improving, and it is thought by railroad men
well informed, that the most serious danger
places have been passed; and that the differences
will be arranged within the next ten days, and
what promised to be an ugly railroad war will
be averted. The completion of the pool on Utah
business is a step well in advance. That the
higher officials of the more important roads
East and West must move cautiously and
forbear with one another is admitted by all who
take any interest in the railroads of the country
Rates are lower than for two Years past, there is
less grain to go East than for six years back,
and there are two more lines to carry it than in
any year before-facts which carry their own
comment. Railroad earnings in recent weeks
show a steady change for the worse, with little
chance of immediate improvement. The reports
from the Northwestern lines show a decrease of
earnings from year ago. Still, when measured
as a whole. the earnings of the railroads are
maintained surprisingly well. We put in that
word surprisingly for the consolation of the
croakers who insist upon believing that business
is desperately depressed whereas, in point of
fact, it is substantially unaffected and il the at
tention Of uneasy railroad men can be absorbed
for a few weeks in organizing pools it will be
good thing; at any rate, it is plain that nothing
is to be gained by railroad wars and the slaugh-
fariny of
