The Draft Horses of France.

While some people in America call
all horses imported from France Nor
mans, 1t is q Jact that there is no breed
in France called by that name by the
French people; the name, Norman,
therefore, is purely American. The
principal breeds of France are known
as Percherons and Boullanais. The
Percherons are the most highly priced of
Ill French races, and all departments
of France 90 to the Perche for stations
to improve their local breeds. The
Percheron stud book OF France, pub
lisked cinler the authority of The French
Government, is the only stud book of
draft horses that is or eUer has been pub
lishcd in France, and now contains the
pedigrees of about 5000 animals. But
some importers are Offering certificates
from France of Norman draft horses
chat may mislead people who do not
understand the French language into
believing these records of origin. Not
one of them issued contains pedigree.
They are furnished at the request of
American buyers by the secretary of
one of the French Agricultural socie-
ties, who says there is no intention of
publishing them in stud book form, as
they have no pedigrees and are of no
value whatever. 1t is a well known
fact that what man gives for horse
over from $500 to SS00--tho price of q
good grade--is paid for purity of blood;
and where the seller is not able to give
the recorded pedigree Of the animal
sold as evidence of additional value, he
has no right to ask it. With these facts
before him, no intelligent man will buy
horse imported from France unless
he is recorded with his pedigree in full
in the Percheron Stud Book of France.

Fall Fertilization.


The fall use of fertilizers should be
no more than will supply the needs of
the growing crop. and to supply these
needs they should be placed where the
plants can reach them the most readily.
Drilling in the fertilizers is not de-
srable way of using them. The supply
of food is too compact. and tends to
keep the roots too much punched TO-
gether The roots of young plant
should be encouraged to spread as
widely as poss BILE, and this is secured
by the wide spreading of the fertilizer.
We prefer broadcast spreading at
tachment to the drill rather than TO put
the fertilizer in the drill with the seed
The plant food then spread ON the sur
face is rapidly diffiused through tho
whole soil, and the roots will quickly
follow it, spreading from drill to drill
and interlacing their iibres thoroughly.
1t is precisely such root growth as this
that is necessary for the well being OF
the crop through the winter-M Y.

have never done anything in the states
man line but it does not look difficult to
me. 1t occurs to me that success in public
life is the result of union of several great
primary elements, to wit:
Firstly Ability to wloop in felicitous
manner.
SecOndly--Promptness in improving the
proper moment in which to wlroop.
Thirdly--Ready and correct decision in
the matter of which side to whoop on.
FOurthly-- Ability to cork up the whoop
at the proper moment and keep it in a cool
place till needed.
And this last is one of the most important
of all. 1t is the amateur statesman who
talks the most. Fearing that he will con-
ceal his identity rs n fool, he babbles in
conversation and slashes around in his
shallow banks in public.

Fine Linen and Jewelry.

Collars, cuffs and belts are made OF

Roman sashes are made to do duty as
vests for house costume.
High collars with stilf lining are seen

Silk sashes eleven inches wide and
three and quarter yards long have sill

plush.
Jeweled belt clasps, which have not
seen the light of day for many year,
