.yudicious Mating In Horse-breed-
ing.

Whilst conforming to the elementary
princ.p pies OF all breeding, to correct faults
on either side by judicious mating, ana
that quality should come from the mares
side, and power from the sire, the doctine
SO strongly held by the late John Day Is
Ysu yaythy of consideration. In the mat
ing of mares, he always advocated the
union of untried mares, e., mares who
have never bred winner, or are at the
stud for their first season, with horses that
had sired winners; and In Csc breeder
or owner should be anxious to oher an I'M
tried horse q chance, the selection Tor him
of tried mares-that is, the dams OF WIN
pers. Particular attention should be d.
rected to the choice OF = sire in the case OF
maidens, for it may very safely be accepted
as a general rule that, 10 all degrees and
conditions of animal life, the first offspring
is inferior to those that succeed 1t, and In
no instance is this doctrine more clearly
demonstrated and verified than In the case
of the first ioal. Many breeders regard
the first foal as useless for racing purposes;
and. though Albert Victor and Melton fig
ure as exceptions, they are far rather iso-
lated instances than proofs OF definite
fact. In the choice of sire breeders are
frequently led astray by mere considera-
lions, either OF misdirected economy, or
by representations relatiVc W ZIG ainouu'
won by the progeny of some particular
horse during.the season. This must OFTEN
prove q very deceptive guide, for there are
very many cases of horses who have pro.
duced one or two really good animals, yet
fail to perpetuate their successive stock
with merit. The sire that best merits the
patronage of breeders is the one that, to
use homely phrase, "gets all bis stock to
run bit," no matter what may be the
class of mares who are sent to him. In
the matter OF "fees,' breeders for public
sale should take into account popular fam
cies; a large fee OF 80 or 70 guineas-or
even, in the case of Hermit, 200 euineas-
may be wise outlay, and yield fair pro-
fit after the deduction Of all expenses,
such as the fee, the keep Of the mare and
foal, and the groom, If the cross and the
sire selected are popular.-Bdileg's Maya
zine.

The Trumpet Bt0ics.

The brown clods quicken into creeping green
The hushed air whispers low:
Rare hourhcs burst out in tender, misty sheen
On banks the yiolets blow
The orchards blossom sudden like bride,
And far hills melt in haze,
While COLDER willows stand on either eide
Along the brooks glad ways
CHANGING with quiy ring wings from bough TO ooueh
The bluebird finds his mate:
4 trill-a dash Of piercing melody
Nay. coy one, why so iate'
In every little wood bliss to sing
The trembling, nutterng BIRDS
with rapture satisfied the corpses ring,
A joy beyond all words
To the light kisses of the odorous air
My pulses rise and fall.
Enchanted by that timid touch, aware
OF one who stlrs In all.
l. TOO, am born by influences deep
trempls like the rose
Love hath awakened all the world from sleep
For me the trumpet blowsl
