Democrats From Dakota.

hPe112i 70 the sentinel.
WAsHIS gToN, Jan. 3.-A delegation OF
Democrats from Dakota are here for the pur-
pose Of securing the admission of that Terri
tory as a State. Their scheme is not 70 di-
vide the Territory, but 10 have the whole of
Il admitted as a State. They claim that by
this plan It is more unlikely to become Dem
ocratic than Republican. The principal OBJ
eaol made by the Democrats in Congress
the admission of Southern Dakota is that
would be Republican State. This dele
alton assures the Democrats that the plan
Ehey propose of admitting the whole Terri
tory would obviafe the objections urged by
the Democrats Of allowing another Repub-
lean StaSe 10 be carved out Of that Territory.
Senator y est and the Democratic Senators
express much doubt as to whether another
democratic State can be secured from any
Of the Territories that are knocking at the
doors OF Congress for admission 10 the

Horace Uithou, shoe..

A correspondent of the New York Tribune
discusses the subject of shoeing horses as
follows; After spelling two noble horses l
was led to try driving without shoeing. Buy
ing a three-year-od had the smith remove
shoes which she had worn about six months,
level the boots and rasp the edges of the
shell rounding to prevent breaking up. She
had an average good foot l have driven her
two years and never any horse faster nor
longer drives, nor over more hard and stony
roads, and her feet are still in good condition.
When standing she rests back upon the
frogs never stands braced. There are many
who do not drive more than two or thre
times a week; the remainder OF the time the
horse stands in a narrow stall, on the floor.
Soon, to the owners surprise, Ned" is lame !;
stands braced steps shortened. He is taken
to another smith, who berates the former
sheer, pulls off the shoes with great indigna
ton, pares the feet nails on some new shoes
and warrants now that Ned shall travel all
right. Perhaps an improvement for a few
days, when the owner relises that his horse
is spoiled, sells at a sacrifice, buys again. etc
Now, by selecting young horses that have
not been shod long DIETER If not at alb with
good feet-an important matter always-I
am convinced that nine out of ten at least
could be driven without Shoes Barefooted
tnty Woulu escape the lAmene5s, drive bet
ter, faster and further, last much longer and
keep on less food, save suffering, and shoe
and treatment bills, which are no small items.
The reasons are evident l. No restriction
to the natural growth of the feet, caused by
shoeing, no matter how we'll done. Shooting
is unnatural. 2. Letting the frog (uature 3
cushion) down to the ground, giving it exer-
else, softness, hence health to the foot /;
whereas the shoe elevates the foot, suspends
the frog, causing it to dry, become hard and
dead, following which is contraction of the
heel, and Inflammation of the foot. 3. The
frog without shoe Be yes as a cushion 10
strike upon, relieving both foot and muscles
from the jar of the step especially can your
steed be driven faster down grade the step
is not 80 high as with shoe, aud but little
shock to foot or muscles for the same reason
can be driven further in day. No danger
of corking, forging, stumbling, etc. My e1.
perience is that with feet properly trimmed
the gait is natural, easy and clear. 4. No
danger-with any care whatever-of oontrac
ton by standing on floor. As rule, unless
the drive is every day, and long at that, the
feet will grow faster than they wear. Sc
much for light drivers But / know of 4
number OF teams (draught horses) always al
work that were never shod.

Wonderful activity is noticeable among the
hardwood manufacturing establishments in
Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont. The
multiplicity of uses to which our fine forests
of oak maple, white birch, beech and ash are
adapted seems only recently recognized.
Dealers in improved wood working machine
ry are finding some of their best customers
among these New England lumber manufac.
turers. Nowhere is labor-saving machinery
better appreciated than in this section, and
we fancy more business and more profit will
be made from some hard wood lots hitherto
considered of little value than from the more
expensive lots of "black growth so fascinat-
ing to the eye of the lumberman. Am. CuL
tiCdtOr.
If the supply of lumber is constantly dim
inishing, and the population, or the users Of
it, constantly increasing, there seems to be
reason to expect better demand and higher
prices; and yet this has been going on for a
century, and the price of lumber has advanc-
ed but little The owners of farms on which
are timber lands have waited long in expecta-
ton of an advance in the value of the timber
ed portion, and possibly their hopes may soon

Agricultural,


A physician, speaking at q late dairymen's
convention, Of the adulteraiiou Of articles OF
food. expressed the opinion that the increase
of insanity in the United States is largely
due to the effect of these authorizations.
man may be poisoned, he said, and yet no
immediate symptoms appear; "but from the
poisonous ingredients in food their effect be-
comes cumulative and the man in tie end as
surely dies from poison as II he at once took
a dose sufficient to produce death" We hard
ly think that dose of poison, just sufficient
to produce death, il divided into 1000 equal
parts and one Of these parts taken each day
for thousand days, would prove fatal.
Thousands of people still live who have taken
poison enough, under the delusive idea that
it was medicine, to kill Immediately If it had
been concentrated in one dose; yet the idea
of the dangerous, cumulative effect of poi
sons, taken in quantities so small that no i'll
consequences seem at first to follow, is what
reason ought to teach and it is just what we
have urged against the use of Paris green, rec
commended by so many writer's for showering
fruit trees and even for applying to cabbages
and other garden vegetables for killing worms
or insects. Because one does not often get
enough of it to kill him at once, these writer's
pronounce it safe.
The physician quoted above strongly fa-
vored effective legislation for the suppression
of all kinds of counterfeiting and fraud in
the manufacture and sale of articles of hu.
man food, and he might well have included
among those that ought to be suppressed
fruits and vegetables that have been drenched
with a solution of Paris green.

An Old AppIe Tree.

An apple tree is generally supposed 10 show
the effect of old age in from 40 to 30 years
after planting, but we are inclined to believe
that injudicious trimming, exhaustion of the
soil, or other causes, often make the tree pre-
maturely old. There is said to be an apple
tree standing in the dooryard of Delos Hotch.

bears less than 80 or 40 bushels. The tree

Setting MiIk in shallow Pans.

1t is stated that the butter which took the
first premium at the New England fair in
1885 was made from milk set in shallow pans.
This reminds us of what G. b. Williams of
Walpole, N II who has the most thorough
knowledge of the art of making fancy butter,
said, at a meeting of the board of agriculture
held in Putney, be should do if he were to
try to make a sample of butter of the very
best possible quality, color and flavor He
would set the milk in the common pans ex-
posed to pure, tempered atmosphere. The
only reason that he did not use the common
milk pans was that he had substitute for
them which required less labor.

Great expense, muchtime and intelligence
have been expended in developing superior
breeds of trotting, driving aud heavy draft
horses but very little attention has, as yet,
been paid to the development of breed of
horses especially adapted to the farm and the
farmers requirement That this is a fact is
the more of a wonder, when it is known that
by far the greater number of the horses in
the world are in daily use on the farms in one
capacity or another. IL is also sad com.
mentary on the intelligence of agricultural
classes in general TO think that thew have
been growing horses all these years for the
different uses which man may put them to,
yet have no distinctive breed which may be
denominated the farmers horse Yet for no
other purpose is it more important that there
should be breed carefully developed, so as
