Whether shoeing is necessary or not
remains to be tested to the satisfaction
of the majority. Some believe that shoes
cannot be dispensed with on cobble
stones of the cities, but are inclined to
the opinion that shoes are not altogether
necessary On soft, sandy, or light, gray
ellv roads. In Chicago a gentleman ne
elected to shoe his horse, and allowed
it to work on the cobble stones. At
first the feet became somewhat sore, and
the hoofs cracked and seemed very brit
tie. In time, however, the hoofs began
to harden in texture, became callous to
the hard usage, until now the owner de-
clares he would not use shoes again I'M
der any circumstances. Just here we
desire to call attention to the subject.
If the feet, by direct contact with the
earth, improve, and the tenderness and
brittleness of the hoof is changed, it
may be possible that those who have
attempted to work their horses I'M
shod have become alarmed at what
they supposed lameness, when a little
patience would have demonstrated
the method as feasible. ANY one who
is accustomed to wearing shoes finds it
very inconvenient to walk barefooted for
few days; but after a short time the
feet become insensible to substances with
which they come in contact, and one
then easily manages TO walk on stones,
gravel, in the sand, water, or even upon
sharp substances, without the least diff
Guilty Thus it may be with horses when
the shoes are removed. They will find
walking awkward, and the feet may be-
come sore, but after a lapse of time they
will be able to pull over the worst kind
of roads.
So far as our own opinions are con-
cerned, we have not given the matter a
test; but the experience those who have
tried working horses without shoes can.
not be ignored. 1t will be hard to con-
vince most persons that shoeless horses
are able to endure the hard cobble
stones, but that horses may work upon
good country roads is within the limit of
possibility. 1t would not be a trouble
some experiment if farmers should put
the matter to Il test by leaving the shoes
off one or two for comparison. If we
could work our horses anywhere without
shoes, it would be great saving in the
course of year, not only financially, but
from the inconvicnces so often expert
cnced when horses are to be shod during
busy time. Field ANIL FlyeSide.

Tn the Orrl,nrd.

A. r. Whitney, the well known Hi
nois horticuturist and farmer, who is al
ways ready to give the benefit of his long
experience to others, tells why he turns
sheep into his orchards in preference to
swine. The latter root up the ground,
taking the best apples and leaving the
wormy ones; the sheep Systematically go
over the orchards and pick up the apples
that drop early, thus destroying large
quantities of worms; they do not root
up the ground, but manage to destroy
and clear out a great variety of weeds.
Mr. Whitney also makes a distinction in
the sheep; the Mcrinos browse too much
to suit the orchard-the lower branches
of the trees are not safe with them. Any
of the long woods arc preferable, two
good Cotswolds to the acre, in his opin-
ion, are capable of keeping an orchard
free from wormy fruit or weeds.
Mr.. Whitney employs strap of iron
curved like shepherds crook, and bolted
to the side of pole, of sufficient
length at the end for gathering apples
for the cider press. This hook is placed
upon branch and the fruit broken off,
much better plan than the usual one of
beating the tops and battering the
fruit. Mr.. Whitney has found refuse
mortar and lime spread about an apple
tree of great benefit, prairie soils being
deficient in lime for apple growing.

An Oriental Dainty.

The bechc-de. mer, or trepang, is found
among the Polynesian islands and in the
Pacific seas generally, being prepared
and sold in Chinese and japanese mar
kets. The creatures exist on coral reefs
and have bodies from six to fifteen inches
long. The skin is sometimes, as here,
covered with spicules or pickles, and is
sometimes quite smooth, and with or
without feet. Five varieties are recog-
nized in the commerce of the Pacific
islands, the finest of which is drown,
with teats or feet, which are worth, at
the place of their preparation, $50 per
ton. The large black, which come next
in value, so says the authority to which
we have referred, bring e25 per ton; the
small black, goo; red bellied, e15, and
white, e12. The finest of these sell for
as much as e100 per ton in China. After
they are caught they are boiled for about
twenty minutes and then split up and
Quilted, when they are ready for drying,
an operation which is conducted in large
sheds on hurdles placed above a brisk
fire Thus dried they are packed up
and shipped of.-PaH MIL Budget.

To produce vigorous, healthy growth
in young peach orchard it is necessary
to stir the soil deeply in advance of
planting, at the same time enriching the
soil, but not with a superabundance of
stimulating organic manures. Trimming,
especially when young, Mr.. Hopes re-
CARDS favorable to the healthy growth
and perfect form of Il tree. lie also em-
pha>izes the importance of thinning out
peaches at an early stage of growth.
This latter opinion is substantiated by
best orchardists, who have proven that
when properly thinned the remaining
specimens more than compensate In
quality and size for the loss in quantity
and labor expended.
In regard to the "yellows" Mr.. Hopes
says; 1.-THE very small fungoid plant
that is undoubtedly the author of all the
mischief, may be defeated to a certain
extent, if not entirely eradicated." There
are three inveterate enemies of the fungi,
viz. potash, lime and sulphur The
first of these is undoubtedly the most
effective and available for the peach
orchard, and its use, even in the form of
unlcachCd wood ashes, has proved val
liable aid in destroying the germs of dis
ease as well as imparting a renewed vigor
and health to the tree itself. The weight
of proof is in favor of the general belief
that a vigorous tree is less liable to con-
tract the yellows then sickly one. -

Growing Pansies.

This is one CT our most popular flow
ers, and though it is popular and to be
found in most gardens, comparatively
few people understand its proper cult
walton with a view of obtaining the
finest flowers. They will go into the
grounds of the florist and express amaze
ment at the great size and beauty of
the panSies they see there, will forthwith
purchase supply for their own planting,
and will be charmed with them, and be
determined to grow the same on their
own premises, though their previous
efforts have so signally failed. When
asked how they had been growing them,
they often reply; Il got some from a
neighbor, who has large beds of them,
but they are all so SMALL When told
that they should SOW the seed of the
finest of those obtained from the florist
as soon as the seed was maturcd-say,
some time in August-and that that was
the only way to have fine, large flowers,
the idea was jumped at. That is the
way to get them. Every August the
seed of the largest and most desirable
should be sown, and the old ones dug
up and thrown away. And we should
say that this is easy enough to do when
it is once known. In the winter the
plants should be lightly covered. There
are new pansies advertised every year,
but any one, growing them carefully and
taking, as we say, the seed from the
best every year, will be as likely as any
body to have large new kinds, and will
thus save the expense of purchasing
them, which, at most, last only for a
single blooming. - GeymaptoUu Telegraph.

FARM, GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD.
Quality i'm Eggs.

The Poultry World says that the differ
ence between an egg laid by plump,
healthy hen, fed with good, fresh food
daily, and an egg laid by thin, poorly
fed hen is as great as the difference be
tween good beef and poor. A fowl fed
on garbage and weak Stops, with very
little grain of any kind, may lay eggs, to
be sure, but when these eggs are broken
to be used for cakes, pies, ETC., they will
spread in weak, watery way over yonr
dish or look milky white, instead of
having rich, slightly yellow tinge. A
erich egg retains its shape as far as
possible, and yields to the beating of a
knife or spoon with more resistance, and
gives you the conviction that you are
really beating something thicker than
water or diluted milk.

Second-Prepare seed bed out of
doors in a sheltered situation. You will
get your plants early enough by so doing.
for they grow much faster and are
much stronger than when grown in
hotbed.
Third-Sprinkle the bed often to keep
it moist, and when the young plants are
about three inches high transplant them
into rows, putting them about three inches
apart in the rows, and the rows about one
foot apart.
Fourth-When the plants have become
stocky have a trench dug about one foot
deeO put into it equal parts of wood
ashes and good rich dressing and rich,
black soil, and work all together with
hoe.
Fifth-Set the plants about five
inches apart, and be sure to straighten
out the roots and press the soil firmly

them fresh until they are firm in their

Seventh-When they have made

is off. BE sure when killing to hold
the stalks together. to prevent the

Important Facts in Peach Culture.
The peach affords striking example
of the benefits derived from careful, sys-
tematic culture. To neglect of the
few essential rules which in every case
should govern peach growing, may be
attributed the large percentages of fail
ures in peach culture. Josiah Hopes,
West Chester, Penn, writing to the
American Pathological society on this
subject presented some important facts
for consideration.
The peach is especially partial to a
loose, rich soil well drained and with
suitable protection from destructive
northwest winds. Mr.. Hopes has OBJ
served for many years that excessive
high winds from the above quarter will
invariably affect trees disastrously, which
coming from other points of the com
pass even at lower temperature, would
not seriously affect vegetation. Excess
