Sizes of Boots and Shoes.

Nominally there is now One-third of an
inch in length and one-twelfth of an inch
in width between contiguous sizes of shoes.
supposed to be 1-12th of an inch broader
than the width A. c is 1-12th inch wider
than B, and so on, + being usually the ex-
IRENE width of women's in general use.
But the sensitiveness of : portion of the fair
sex on the subject of wide feet has induced
many manufacturers to label their wide
goods ZEE. This width is really 1-12th
broader than E. Upon the notion of get
ting close fit, also, many ladies have got
into the habit OF calling for C and J, or D
and J. If such exactness of measurement
were obtainable it would signify that ca
was LA inch wider than G. But, as a mat
ter of fact, no manufacturer splits his sizes
as fine as that. Lengths of shoes are al
most as much demoralized as widths. The
beginning of the scale in lengths of shoes is
a child's 0, which should be Just four
inches in length, and each additional size
should add one-third of an inch. A child's
0 being four inches in length, childs
would consequently be five inches long,
and a - would be six and one third inches
in length. The numbers begin at / again,
which is six and two-thirds inches long. A
mans should be nine inches long. But
1t has become so customary to abridge half
size, that when manufacturer receives
orders for mems shoes 6s to los, or women's
IS to rs, he knows very well that his custo-
mer expects 51s to 94s in one case, and u
to 81 in the other Boston Commercial.

Capacity of the Horses stomaob.

The Farm, Field and S0ckmdn has some
interesting facts concerning the horses
stomach. 1t says: The capacity of the
horses stomach is three gallons. The
capacity of that of an OK is five gallons.
The horse must, from the size of his sto-
mach, receive food in small quantities and
frequently. The OK does not require to be
fed so frequently, for he can take very
large meal at time, and then employ
considerable time in demonstrating it. The
capacity of the pigs stomach is compare
lively small-two gallons-and the pig,
therefore, requires TO be fed frequently.
The capacity of the sleeps stomach is IN
proportion to the ox's, apd it must be fed
similarly.
Professor Dick found that horse not
working could be kept in fair condition on
twelve pounds of hay and five pounds of
oats, but if good amount of work has to
be done he should receive fourteen pounds
of hay and twelve pounds of oats and two
pounds of beans. We know of many
horses that receive twenty pounds of oats
and two pounds of beans, and hay ad lib,
but they are used for very fast work, and
are kept in prime condition. The guam
tity of sustenance food depends on the ma
ture of the animal some require very lit
tie, others great deal Young animals

mails more than lean ones, and so on. Two
pecks of steamed potatoes, with nine
pounds of barley meal and little salt,
given every day to a pig weighing twenty
four to twenty eight pounds, will make it
prime fat in nine weeks.
Messrs. Lawes & Gilbert found that if
!, 400-pound OK were taken from grass and
put under cover he would gain about
| twenty pounds weekly by being fed daily
on crushed oil-cake, eight pounds chopped
clover hay, thirteen pounds; turnips,
forty-seven pounds.
The late DIR. Voelcker gives the follow
ing as distinctly fattening sheep diet !:
Sixteen pounds clover hay, four ounces
linseed cake and 80 ounces mangelwurzel.
IMPORTANT DEVELOPMENT. = About six
months ago while Messrs. Robinson, Bat
tey * Curry were running drain tunnel 10
their Fila mine on Rush creek, four miles
west of town, they encountered a chute of
ore heavily sulphuretted and rich in free
gold. Since that time they have put the
property in shape for extensive and sys-
tematlc working, and are now engaged in
developing the deposit. They find it to be
quite large and in every way more valuable
than their preliminary observations had led
them to think it was. Within the next week
or two crushing will begin regularly, and
there is every indication that the results
will be highly profitable. This mine has
been opened in the face of that most seri-
Gus obstacle, a lack of working capital. A
long bedrock tunnel has been run, hoist
ing and milling machinery has been erect
ed, and shaft has been sunk to depth of
100 feet. Heretofore there has been no at
tempt at deep mining in that part of the
township. none of the explorations extend
ing more than about thirty feet below the
surface, and yet thousands of dollars have
been realized by the desultory workings of
the numerous lodges that abound there.

heaven in which you can better teach them
kindness and mercy than by teaching to do
kind acts and say kind words hundred
times n day 10 the lower creatures By whom
they are constantly surrounded. Every
such teacher in our schools is not for the
protection Of animals alone, but for the pro-
