The best time to prune grape vines is
as soon as possible after the leaves have
fallen. If left until spring It is apt to

there is always some loss of vigor in
vines encountered during several
months with large mass of useless
wood.
The time Of the year has arrived
when the shOeing of the horse requires
increased care. ley roads are likely to
come now at any time. and it is never
safe to use smooth animal in circum-
stances of this kind. Humanity as
well as self interest should remind the
| hOrsemen OF this matter. II
No man, 40 matter hoB poor or how
rich, can afford to use male animal of
any kind but q thoroughbred. II a
farmer has ten females 10 be served he
can afford to own a Thoroughbred male.
Or if he has a considerable less number
he cannot afford to patronizes anything
less belonging to hi, neighbors. This

grass. For pasture it is considered best
of all the clOverS because It does not
winter-kill and stands the severest
droughts: 1t remains chick and green
nearly all winter and comes early in
spring.-Er.
