FARM NOTES.
Doc. the Animal FuInIi its Purpose.

The object Of keeping animals on the gen
eral farm Is profit 81 utility. We breed
cattle. swine. sheep and perhaps horses,
for nloI,ey. If We make an exception Of
the horse in this regard. We breed or buy
him for Use, precisely as We purchase a
machine The steady aim OF the farmer. if
he Is enterprising. i to secure the best ma
ehfnery. He watches and inquiries until
he finds the best: and nobody need be told
how loudly he complains if he gets hold of
piece of machinery or an implement that
Is worthless or comparatively ~. But how
often are we indifferent to the merits Of
our horsess Here Is a horse that is best
described as slow poke. Il sleeps when ii
walks. and does not go much faster when
il trots: or it may be one of those horses
that eat and eat and never give any ade-
qaate account for what they consume, and
IN other ways. il may be an inferior and
imperfect animal. Now, that means finan-
eial loss to the farmer. \ SLOW horse re-
quires much more time to do certain
amount Of work than the fast walking
hor-e would require: that requires a loss of
time 0n the par1 Of the driver, and the re
suit j. that but = portion of the work is
done that might b. done if the horse is of
quick action. We do not grow a. much in
our field, il costs more u grow what We
do grow. and because of possible lack of
thorough cultivation what We do grow i
not a. good a. if We had horses that had
some spirit and vim IN them. Ii the horse
is vicious We are constantly exposed to loss
and danger The animal may injure other
animals or ourselves, necessitating an out
| lay OF money. Now, we do not act thus
recklessly with respect to other matters. a.
already stated. Ii the machine will not do
it, work well and quickly we throw il
aside. and consider il money in our pockets
/ "a lose what We have paid out for the ma
chine and rs pay out more for new one;
/ and a. for vicious animal, its keeping is
/ very much like the keeping Of defective
steam boiler which is liable to burst at any
/ time II is violation of all recognized
principles Of business Ia keep an inferior
| horse on a farm. Ii would BIZ expensive il
We got it for nothing. and somebody kept
| it for u without cost. RApidity wins and
! slowness always loses. Our labor-saving
machinery. our telegraphs and railroads
make ii necessary for us TO be active in all
our operations or the world viii get ahead
of us. The man who cultiyates his crop
| with hoe. reaps his grain with cradle.
| and mows his grass with 4 scythe might as
well quit farming. if he is engaged in it
with any expectation of competing with
men who use improved machinery. But
poor teams are part of the primitive imple-
nent policy Of farming. 1t is waste OF
time, and time is money. We shall never
make farming pay in this country until We
institute reform in these matters which
many of Us style little things. If they are
little they make lare aggregate lpss.-

impress and embarrass one with their
repose signify not only sclf-command. but
also much complaccncy and some conceit.
Restless eyes that cannot look ono steadily

mind Eyes in which the white has
yellow ish tinge and is stnaked with
reddish veins. prove much of strong passion
and hasty temper. Very blue eyes bespeak
a mind inclined to coquetry Gray eyes
signify dignity, intelligence. and excellent
reasoning faculties. Greenish eyes, false

malicious mind is often indicated by
greenish eyes. Black eyes show passionate,

deceitful disposition. Brown eyes are
generally tender and true, indicating kind
and happy disposition.

of the head where the bullet was lodged,
and get it out that way. The difficulty was
IN determining the exact location oi tne
bullet. DR.. Fluher by means OF the probe,
got the general direction that the bal! had
taken and formed his judgment BY 1t. Inc
hair was cut from the back Of hnorrs heao
and hole the size of q cent was cut through
the skull. The instrument used was ire
phiue. which is a cylindrical saw Win a
handle like that of gimlet. Il was laced
against the skull and worked round and
round until a circular hole was cut. The
bullet was removed through this hole. \
rubber drainage tube was then passed
through the brain, its ends projecting an
inch through the hole made by the trephine.

nearly the whole staff Of the hospital, lasted
