Something New I'm Riding Habits,

l saw a novel kind of habit up at the school
the other day. 1t was the most sensible and
comfortable Of anything I have ever seen a
IN wear in riding. First, knee breeches,
buttcning close below the knee. Then high
topped boots, also buttoned closely to the leg
over the breeches ard above the knee. Over
all this was worn a coat like q coachman's
close-ftting ulster, buttOned far enough
down to hide the figure only, and left free to
fall to the left foot, and fastened by
loops and buttons down the inside Of the
left coat tail, TO the inside OF the left leg. In
this way she was completely covered, and yet
rs perfectly free as a man would be in case
of accident. / scarcely think this style Of
habit Will become popular, not for some time,
at any rate. 1t exposes the figure too much
before the wearer is in the saddle, and most
Of our ladies will wait until they are general
" worn before they will have the courage 70
adopt them In the country, where one can
manage to escape observation, | cannot think
of a more convenient style Of habit. Boston

fine tunes for Sunday. Louder and louder they
sang, till BOsSy could stand it no longer. She
put her heal in at the door to see what it was
all about. The sounds grated on her ear for
music.
MOo-Oo-Oo. said the COW encrgetically.
Then she lowered her head and switched her
tail. There was in her eye look that plainly
meant business. She charged on that choir
i'm less time than it takes to say Jack Robin
son. She caught the tcnOrs coat skirts ON
her horns and ripped them from top to bot
tom. Then she made at the big fiddle, and it
never buzzcd again. The boom died away in
the basSo's throat, and he jumped for the door
with O haste which really was not ut all
proper for a first bass in u well to do church.
The soprano and cOutraltO ran as if n witch
on a brOomstick was after them. They did
not stop 10 SEQ whether their skirts flowed
gracefully or not.
In the twinkling of an eye the church was
cleared Of all but the COW and the bCncneS.
She looked at them a moment, and then
made a charge on them just as she had on
the choir. She butted them over and tore
the cushions upon her horns till all was a
sight 10 behold. After that BOSSy paused a
moment and looked around OIL the ruin she
had made, aS if to say:
That's my opinion of choir rehearsals."
Then she said moo" softly, and went back
to nibblinG grass in the churchyard.

GentIeInen's Fashions.

Tine present fashion Of making dress suits
differs but little from the styles heretofore
worn, save in the cut and material Of vests
These are now of silk, with embroidered fig
ures in tiny dots, rosebuds, and various small
patterns; black silk shows red or old gold
dots, also those of light blue and a lightshade
Of green. White silk embroidered with black
dots or with blue or other colors sspoken Of

TWn-RALE PRESS.

The feed hole is in the center of the press,
at the side. The feeding is done through the
side opening, the feeders standing upon the
ground, thus avoiding pitching up. Straw Is
bv it conveniently baled to be sent to paper
mills.
While one bale is being tied the last charge
is pressed into the other, and while that
is being tied the first charge is be-
ing pressed into the next, and fast time Is
made by the large charges, empty chambers
and pressing two bales at a time. The bale
is 17x2Ox30, which is the size desirable and
which fills a car for shippers. One hundred
mounds in this bale makes it nice to handle,
and the press will put l75 pounds in it for
sbipping. The press is twelve feet lcng.

THE FARM AND GARDEN.
PICTURE or A HILLSIDE BARN FOR
A COLD CLIMATE.

A Thousand Acre Vermont Model Farm
To Winter Celery - Farm Notes for
No~vember-Care of Calves In Winter.
Browns Barn.
A farmer in Prince Edwards Island has
planned and built what he thinks IS nearly
perfection for a cold climate barn. It's built
into a hillside.
MIR. Browns farm is devoted to mixed hus-
5andry, and he has planned the barn with an
eye to this. There are 80 acres in his patch
of land. In this admirable shelter, both for
stock and grain, Mr.. Brown has feed boxes
for cattle, salt troughs for sheep, doors ana
traps in the pig pens, etc.
In describing his favorite building he says:
In our northern climate warmth is a great
dcsideratum, provided sufficient ventilation
is secured. The barn has warmth, ventlla-
ton and light. The windows are hinged at
the top and made to swing outward, so that
during rainy weather they may be opened to
any degree.

ERRlinR Lambs

1t is only fair to retain sight of the value
Of the manure made, when we are figuring
the profits of any branch of stock feeding.
We are led to these reflections by a letter
from our good friend Richenhack, Of Wayne
county, o. He says that in November, 1884,
he put in ls2 lambs at a cost of S465; from
that time until April IL, 1856, he fed them
hay and grain worth, at market prices, SJGS,
making an aggregate of S96S At this time
he sold the lambs for $l,05S, leaving him a
balance of $40 for care, labor and interest,
and he asks If this should be satisfactory. he
had kept these lambs Eve months; the interest

Picture of n Two-Balo Hay Press-Fat-

Vaults.

Herewith is a picture of king Malcolm" a
splendid Clydesdale stallion. He shows bis
high breeding in characteristic markings,
among them the white strip down his nose
and the white hind feet. His magnificent
shape and mild, intelligent eye are notable.
The full, flowing tail denotes strength and
health. The Clydesdales, crossed with our
native mares, will come near making the
farmers perfect all-purpose horse. They are
originally from the valley of tho river Clyde,
but now the breed is raised all through Scot
land They have immense strength and en-
durance. They are not so large and heavy as
the English draft horse; but, on the other
hand, they are nimbler n action, and some
strains of them make very good travellers
quite good enough for all ordinary purposes.
The ClydeSdale has great prepotency, mark
ing his characteristics powerfully. The breeds
are so gentle and intelligent that they are
great pets with their owners. There is a look
in their large eyes like that of a beautiful VIC
man.
