Corn is the bane of the farm horse, as it is
also of the horse doing any other sort of work,
not because of not being sufficiently nutritious
but because it makes too much fat and not
enough muscle. The horses muscle wears
away by work as metal wears away by friction.
Fat wears away under exercise, but its
disappearance in nowise lessons the power
for either draft or speed On the other hand,
well nourished and vigorously exercised muscles,
without deposit Of fat to keep them
company, are much more efficient for
any purpose for which the horse is
kept, than when there is load of fat to be
carried. The trainer acts upon this PROPOSE
ton, and works the fat off. experience having
shown that the muscles, trained down by exer

horse. The same rule will hold good with the
work horse, though modified by the degree in

only corn for feed, then he will be wise
if he make sale of his corn, or the greater
part Of it, buying oats instead. If corn
be used in whole or in part, the effect should
be carefully noted as to the extent to
which fermentation sets in, meeting this by use
of salt and ashes, at once lessenng the amount

upon corn will eat earth when allowed access to

of fattening stock are made ripe on corn, with
the addition of an allowance of coarse feed or
fodder. Ripeness III the horse is very different
thing from ripeness in the fatted steer for in the
one case it means full vigor of muscle with an
absence of fat, and in the other an abundance of
fat. no matter how much; and as to the muscle,
no matter how inefficient for work.

A Very Satisfactory Trade In Progress-Col-
1ecticns Easier.

INDIANAPOLIS, June g.
Wholesale men in most departments report
very satisfactory trade in progress with the COM
ing in of June, and country merchants are meet
ing their bills with commendable promptness.
The growing weather, and improved prospects
for the hay and oats crop, and the fine start corn
is getting are all encouraging. to the farmer as
well as to the merchants, and the former are
loosening their purse strings somewhat. The
danger from frosts is passed, and the weather
could hardly be improved upon for the growing
crops. The season in Europe is about
two weeks late as here but the crop
prospects are uniformly favorable. The visible
supply of wheat in this country May % was
nearly $4,000, 600 bushels, twice as much as at
this time last year. and four times as much as
In 1857. The exports of -four, wheat and corn
from New York since Aug. %, continue in con-
siderable excess of those of last year. From the
whole country the exports of corn for the first
four months were two and one-half times those
OF lastyear; those of wheat increased onefourth
but brought substantially no more money. The
value OF the whole cereal export for four months
was SOD, 258 600, against $40, 078, 900 last year
Locally, there is little calling Cor special men
tion The produce markets are active prices
weak Hens drop to BIC per pound day: young
chickens coming in more freely, prices still firm.
The provision market is sluggish. There is some
inquiry for hog products, but dealers are not
inclined to accept present prices.
GRAIN.
The local market is in somewhat better shape
than on the opening of the week, yet dealers
extremely cautious in making their bids, and
have little to do with futures The Board of
Trade Price Current says:
Wheat about as yesterday, with no life in
spot or futures. A dull feeling prevails all
round, but sellers seem to think that better
prices are in the near future, and prefer to wait
for developments. Futures show some sellers,
