cover $4,000 of these machines
were sold last year. said the clerk,
as he menaced dog with hoe ham

premiums than any other machine IN
the world. The best is always the
cheapest.
The man pushed the machine a
few feet away from him, thrust his
hands deep into his pockets, and
seemed about to whistle, but he
didn't.
Il can give you list of 230 prom
inent citizens who have used them,
said the clerk, as he frted with q
woman on passing street car.
''Don't be deceived into buying an
inferior machine. The lawns of the

this machine"
The man suddenly advanced and
seized the handle of the machine.

the only care needed is to oil it now
and then. Those who have used
them the longest would not part with
them for double the cost price"
The machine was pushed and
pulled.
"We not only guarantee the ma
chine, but the price shall be made
perfectly satisfactory" said the clerk
as he waved off a boot-black. "What
is the use of paying $40 for a lawn
mower which will get out of order in
half an hour? Beware of base imita-
tons. There are machines in this
market which are not worth the cost
of sending home by an express wag-

man, but he had been gone minute

agricultural department,
FOR TELLING HORSES AGES.

The full-grown horse possesses
twenty-four back teeth that is, six in
each side of each jaw; these are
called molars of grinders. He has
twelve front teeth that is, six in each
jaw. Mares have no tushes. The foal
has either at his birth or short ly after
wards eight milk teeth that is, four
in each jaw at about twelve months
two more milk teeth come in each
jaw. These remain unchanged till he
is three years old. The mouth of the
yearling and two year old cannot be
founded. The yearing's mouth shows
no signs of use, and the corner teeth
are shells only; at two years these
teeth are strong and well grown, and
the corner teeth filled up. A little be-
fore three years the two centre teeth
of each jaw fall out anu are replaced
by permanent ones. A little before
five the two remaining teeth are shed
and in their place come permanent
ones. The upper milk teeth usually
fall out first.
Thus the mouth is completed as to
its front teeth {; the corner tooth how
ever, is but imperfectly developed, be-
ing at presant a shell only this shell
at six years old has filled up and is a
complete tooth. This is the differ
ence between five and six year
old. The tushes appear between
three and a half and four years old,
and they take nearly two years to
arrive at their full growth. These
teeth, as the horse grows older,
get blunter and shorter, and so to an
experienced judge are sure indica-
ton of age. Up to six years old the
mouth is in distinct and periodical
state of structural change. There is
no difficulty in determining the age
up to that date. After that the age
must be judged by the shape of the
mouth and the appearance of the
teeth called the mark. At six years
the cuts leaves the two centre teeth
above, at seven the next two above.
at eight the outer or corner teeth
above.
At nine the two centre teeth be.
low lose the cuts, at ten the next two
below, and at eleven the outer or cor.
ner teeth below. After little prac.
tice the close observer can scarcel,
make mistake. The changes tina
occur are the same in all horses o.
nearly so.-IHe Sportsman.

THEY WILL DO 1T.

1t was plain to see by his looks
and actions that he had no idea of
purchasing a lawn mower. He might
possibly have been argued into buy
ing two papers of tacks for five
cents, or a summer thermometer at
slaughter prices, bat it wasn't likely
that he even had a lawn to NOW.
And yet he came to sudden halt
before a hardware store, slid up to
three or four specimen mowers on
exhibition, and a minute later he was
making a close examination. A
clerk came out and said
"Good morning. We have a few
left, but they are going like hot
cakes"
The man seized the handle of one
of the mowers and pushed the ma
chine back and forth.
"Any child can run it," observed
the clerk, land you notice that il
makes no more noise than a sewing
machine"
The man upset the machine on its
back and spent three minutes investi
eating.
"Nothing to get out of order, sir,
continued the clerk as he bowed to {
a good-looking woman. "We war
rant this machine for two years, anC

ed some more.

USEFUL HINTS.

Keeping Machinery Covered. --Har-
vesting machinery is unwieldly for get
ting into barns on stormy days or
over night, but it is far too valuable
and expensive to be left unprotected.
Iron parts rust and wood work swells
when left exposed 10 rains and dews.
A canvas covering to protect it at all
times when not in use will pay good
int. on its cost.
Tying Up Tomatoes.-As soon as
the tomato plants blossom one or
two stout stakes should be driven
down by them and the plants securely
tied. This will keep the fruit out of
the dirt, and will make the vine more
prolific and prevent rotting. A good
stake is much better and less expen-
| sive than the trellis often used and to
which the plants have to be tied to be
of any benefit.
Squash Vine Rank Feeders. One
squash vine, If certain not TO be dis
troyed,is enough for single hill. If
more than two or three are planted
together they will crowd so that none
will yield much fruit. This necessity
for an abundant supply of food is the
reason why chance vines often yield
so enormously. Vines thus coming
in rich place have the field all to
themselves and the result shows that
they occupy it fully.
Watering Plants.-Watering must
be done judiciously, or it will result in
harm rather than good. Water
should be at least as warm as the all
and if slightly warmer all the better
1t ought to be applied in the evening
and if there is no mulch around the
plant scrape away some soil and re-
5 place it after watering. Another gooC
way is to make deep holes near thu
plants with crowbar and fill thes,
). with warmIsh water, and letting i
soak into the adjoining soil before re
V filling the holes. If dry earth is sprea'
over the wet soil it will be moistene,
before morning, as the water will ris
Il by capillary attraction.

No breed ever came into existence
to gain in so short time such high
favor as the Plymouth Rock. 1t is the
farmers breed. The largest returns
from ordinary care have been realized
from fowls Of this breed owing to the
fact that perhaps, that they are able,
to great extent, to care for them
selves. As layers they furnish
great number of eggs of large size |;
they are early TO mature, and cannot
be surpassed for their plump carcasses
and palatable flesh.

To Tax Bachelors.

The question of taxing bachelors
has again risen in France. A peti.
tion to that effect has been sent to
the chamber of deputies. 1t says
that in Paris alone there are near.
ly half q million, whereas the num-
Der of married men is not more
than $4,000. We are reminded
that the tax, singular as it may
seem, has already existed in sever
al countries. Tue French conven.
ton adopted it. SO did the old re
pnblics. In Sparta the women were
allowed to drag bachelors into the
temple of Hercules aud give them
sound thrashing. Plato con-
demned thom to a fine. Rome
made them pay a round sum-
Camillus went farther, and forced
them to marry the widows of cltl-
zens killed in defending the coun-
try. The petitioners say the tax
ought to be double welcOme-6rst
because it will increase the declin-
ing population by inducing bache.
lors to marry; and, secondly, be
cause it will help to mako up the
growing deficit in the budget,
