The National Live Stock Journal
gives the following good advice in re-
gard to the care of young colts:
While climate and soil contribute
largely to the bone, muscle, and
growth of the colt, yet generous feed
ing and comfortable quarters are
necessary to insure the desirable size.
Care during the first two winters gem
orally determines the future form of
the colt. Especially is this true with
reference to the attention he receives
during the first winter after he is
weaned. IF he has only rough fodder
and is subjected to constant exposure,
he is sure to be stunted. His growth
and prosperous condition then seem to
stop suddenly after he is weaned, and
he remains at Il standstill throughout
the winter and spring, till the early
grass again starts his growth. But
then much valuable time has been lost
in the period of his growth that can
never be recovered. Moreover, his
system has been stunted, and his sub
sequent growth is, like that of the
pony more in breadth than in height.
All this is remedied if sufficient food
and shelter are given to the young
colt during the first winter of existence
and it the same generous treatment is
continued during the second wiuter,
then the possibility of stunning him
has passed away. Every considera-
ton, monetary and useful of value and
beauty, favors the horse of fine size.
Whatever specially the small horse
may fill, the larger horse will serve
much better.

Nominations will also be made for the
following officers: Sheriff, Register of
Deeds, Clerk of court, County attor-

Districts No. | and 5. Men for these
positions should be chosen from the
representative men in the party and
should be men who are thoroughly

confidence. Satisfactory nominations
can be best made by q convention in
which every portion of the county is
fully represented and for this reason
we hope to see next Saturdays con-

MORRIS, MINI, Aug. 10, 1854.

EDITOR TRIBUNE:
1t is an open secret that two or three
gambling houses have been running in
our city for some time past, carrying
on their nevarious business with
but little if any effort at concealment.
There are and have been for months
past men here whose only business is to
entce the unsuspecting into these
gambling hells and fleece them of all
they possess. More or less of gabmling
has been carried on here for years but
of late the business has rapidly grown
to be so great that it can no longer be
over looked. 1t is also openly and posi-
lively asserted that some of the offici-
ais whose business it is to enforce the
laws of the village and state and to
see that these gambling resorts are
closed are interesed with the gamblers
and instead of performing their duty
in this regard are not only overlooking
and encouraging the vice but are par
tlcipating in it. Probably this very
vice is doing more to-day toward
running the men of our place than all
others combined.
I for one, afr. Editor, would like to
know why things are thusly. Is it
not time the present condition of
things received attention? If Off GERS
can not be depended upon to correct
these fragrant evils, citizens should
take the matter il. hand and see that
these gambling hells are closed and
the gamblers driven out Of the cit"

American Farmer: Book larnln'
and farmin' don't go together" was
once held to be orthodox doctrine, but
that period of blissful ignorance is now
happily past. 1t was current at the
the date when bushel of grain was
put into bag and a large stone to
balance it, ana slung over the back OF
a horse and carried to the mill. Our
largest and best farmers are those who

The September number of the
American Agriculturist contains the
following sound advice in regard to
the care of a work team:
A poor work team makes farm opera
tons more costly. Grooming is es-
sential, as it gives rest to tired muscles
1t is second only to proper food. 1t has
been said: "a good grooming is worth
four quarts of oats" Feed literally
but do not over feed, Feed regularly,
aud see that the team has it's break
fast, dinner and supper, before you
have your own. 1t is poor policy to
give horses no grain until they are
about to do some hard job or seasons
hard work. Overlooking with grain
or grass, causes arrangement of the
digestion. Imperfect digestion means
i'm paired usefulness in the long run.
A horse will do more work on oats
than OIL corn. Corn will prepare q
horse for labor, but oats make bet
ter ration during hard work. Oil and
starch in corn make il an undesirable
summer food; it is heating, Old hay
cut and mixed with brqu or q little
meal, makes a good work ration, if old
hay is not plenty, feed newly cured
clover or timothy. Give an oc-
cassional feed ofroots, apples, and the
like; they afford variety and help
digestion. fiat all possible, let the
team during hard summer work drink
once in the forenoon and once in the
afternoon, besides at their regular
meals. Judge them somewhat by
yourself. See that the breast and
shoulders do not chafe. To prevent it,
take care to have well-fitting collars,
and battle the shoulders with cool
water on returning from work.

In speaking of the well known
methods of preserving posts and wood
which are partly embedded in the
earth, by charring and coating with
tar. it is said these methods are only
effective when both are applied.
Should the poles only be charred,
without the subsequent treatment of
tar, the charcoal formation Of the sur
face would only act as an absorber of
the moisture, and, If anything hasten
to decay. But applying coating of
tar would only form a casing about
the wood, nor would it penetrate to the
depths which the absorbing properties
of the char oal surface would insure.
Wood that is exposed to the action of
water or let into the ground, should
first be charred, and then, before it
has entirely cooled, be treated with
tar until the wood is thoroughly i'm
pregnated. The acetic acid and oils
contained in the tar are evaporated
by the heat, and only the resin left
behind, which penetrates the pores of
the wood and forms an alr-tight and
waterproof envelope. 1t is important
to impregnate the poles little above
the line of exposure, for here it is that
that the action of decay affects the
wood first, and where the break al ways
occurs when removed from the earth
or strained in testing. Elk.

If the farm don't pay, as many
farmers assert, it is because it don't
owe you anything. The soil is very
prompt in liquadating all it's just OBJ
legations, and throwing in q good
round sum as usury. But it is very
obstinate in yielding up its treasures
to those who in justice have no claim
upon it. 1t has not much to give away
in support of idleness, and in this it
isjustifiable. Now make an inven-
tory of your transactions with the
farm, carefully reconnoitre, and you
will doubtless discover that it is your
self who has been remiss and not the
farm. Be liberal with the land and the
land will be liberal with you.

American Agriculturist: All the
eggs in one basket. We do not be-
lieve in it: The eggs may all be of
excellent quality, and the basket
strong and large enough to hold them,
and yet we think it unwise to risk
them all at once. There are many
chances which farmer must take,
but he is rarely warranted in hazard
ing his present comforts in the hope Of
great gains. A man may invest all
his capital in hops or cranberries, Or
some other special crop, and,-lose.
He may clog all the machinery of his
farm operations, by going largely into
grape-growing, when he might better
have kept to his wheat. Farmers
have been sold out by the sheriff be-
cause the horses possessed too much
speed. and the race track had greater
destinations than the corn-field. Some
men run all to cider, have mill f.
make it, and that is all flew make.
Others raise ONLY Lay, and sell it off
''lo an. Their eggs are all in one
basket. Mixed husbandry, and not
specialities, for American farmers
wins in the long run.

and the latter will insist upon and re-
ceive it's full proportion of the North
ern Dakota traffic as Il condition pre-
cedent to the restoration of the pool

day for the Manitoba, and tritle
chilly for st. Paul, when the great
Milwaukee corporation got its clutches

Now is the time to make invest
ments. This is a remarkable period
of financial depression. Values of
stocks, merchandise and real estate
have been shrinking for a long time
in a way unprecedented. But we be-
lieve that bottom is reached and that
the wisest heads are already planning
for the reflux tide that is as sure to
come as is the light to succeed dark
ness. Every period of depression in
business has been followed by a CORE
spending uprising, and there is no
valid reason for believing that this
present season of quietude is to sink
into one of stagnation. When the tide
turns, and turn it must, values of all
kinds will go up with bound and
those who are shrewd enough to an
ticipate the change by buying heavily
will be the wealthy men of the future.
