FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
WEAVING and wintering Colts.


1t is with q colt as with an infant-in-
judicious practices at time of weaving
may lay the foundation for disturbed di-
gestions, and in the case of the colt, this
comes at a very inopportune time, as the
winter with its dry feed and deprivation
of grass requires to be met. The colt is
readily weaned, and this can be done
with safety, provided the change be made
gradually, suitable food being given. and
this with care. The dam is readily re-
lieved Of her milk, her small udder has
room for but little at a time, and she soon
ceases to give milk. A colt that is worth
raising at all is worth giving all the care
that is necessary in order that itmay de-
velop to the best advantage from the
start, losing no ground. To reach this
end requires more judgment and care
than is usually exercised upon The aver
age farm. Some farmers advocate giving
no grain to young colts, relying upon
hay, after frost. The effect Of this treat
ment is to give them a big abdomen, but
from day to day they get thinner upon the
ribs. The colt starves, and as cold wealth
err m on, the colt shows that sort of
discomfort that always comes of insuffici-
ent nourishment being given. The wean
ing colt should be 80 fed that its sides re.
main straight from point OF shoulder to
quarter. This means q moderate amount
Of hay, and nearly what clean oats the
colt will eat. At first, q pint OF oats twice
daily is enough, to be increased as winter
sets in. Many colts, when spring opens,
show that they are the unwilling victims
to a slow and relentless system of starv.
alton. They nope around spiritless, and
if they have gained any weight during
the winter, it will be found to be mainly
weight of abdomen. A deceptive appear
ance is maintained by the free growth
of hair. When this is shed, the ribs are
altogether too plainly seen, and colts
wintered in the scant manner referred to
seldom, if ever, get rid OF the big abdo-
men acquired during winter. The in.
to nal organs grow unduly, as compared
to the bOny, muscular, and tendonous
systems-these latter remaining pinched,
the muscles being flabby. The so-called
toughening process to which colts are 1
subjected during winter, is the out
growth of inhumanity and the lack o fcom-
mon sense. Discomfort from any cause
means suspension of growth, and no in !
fluence can so completely tend to this !
end as suffering continuously from low |
temperature. The grown up horse,
iLured to many winters of exposure. can
not be pointed to as an example of what ,
a weanling can stand. Hence, the only
safe practice with the colt is to feed liber-
ally with food well chosen, alternating
careful protection at night, with mid day ,
exercise in the open air and sunlight. 1t :
is well to bear three things in mind, as !
lead to growth, health, and unvary-
ing success with the young colt, namely,
a dry bed under shelter, suitable feed I
properly given, and outside exercise in {
the sunlight. National LiUe Stock Jour-

Francis Joseph's Gift.


 An Advertiser reporter yesterday saw g beautiful piece of jewslry which has an in teresting history; it is not likely that there is another such in America. It is present from the Emperor of Austria to little child here in the city. In design it is four leai clover in gold, with lovely diamond dew drop in it's center. Upon it's back is this in scription, engraved in the most tasty manner 'tFrom His Imperial Majesty Emperor Fran, cis Joseph I, to Charlotte Pollak, Ischl, 18th August, 1885,"
 From MT. Ignatius Po1lak, the little girls father, the following account of the imperial gift is obtained Mrs. Pollak spent last summer at the famous Alpine resort, Isehl. The Austrian Emperor was there at the same time. The 18th of August was little Char lotte's sixth birthday. Her aunt, without Mrs. Pol1ak's knowing it, remembering that the 18th was also the Emperor's birthday, wrote note of congratulation from the child as little American girl on her sixth birthday to the Emperor on his fifty-four h, and signed it simply Charlotte" The note was accompa- nied by small bunch of flowers. Nothing was heard of the modest tribute of regard un- til eight days afterward, when the Emperors s master of ceremonies called upon Mrs. Pollak and in the name of his sovereign presented the beautiful token already described. He told the lady that when the Emperor came across the simple note and bunch of flowers from an American child in the files Of pres ents he was so struck with its sincerity and disinterestedness that he shed tears and dl- rected that the childs full name be obtained and herself sought out in order that his thanks might be returned along with me mento of his esteem.

 The Bridgeport News says that Col. Wat son of the 4th regiment wants the resigna- tion of Surgeon Lewis, which the latter re- fuses to give. The News adds: 'It is re- ported that the desire to oust Dr. Lewis arises out of the fact that he scarcely ever travels around with the colonel and other members of the staff, as has been customary and as they think he ought to do. It is another open secret that Colonel Watson wants to appoint Dr. G. L. Porter surgeon in place of Dr. Lewis, and would immediately carry out this long cherished plan if Dr.. Lewis were once out Of the way. The posi- tion of assistant surgeon was left vacant for long time by Colonel Watson before he f. nallz made an annointment"
