the accommodation of those VINO
want to celebrate.
A Minnesota editor makes the fol-
lowing plaintive wall for funds with
which to celebrates: We don't wish
to be understood as dunning any body
but the 4th is coming, our boys will
want q few punches of fire crackers,
our girls stick of candy, the office
dog an extra bone, and the "old man"
q square meal and a nickel cigar, and
If you can spare us dollar or two be-
tween now and the Fourth we shall
all appreciate the favor muchly.
Strange as 1t may seem, printer can
use few dollars occasionally as we'll
as preacher or boot black.
Letme tell you how to make your
bedroom delightfully."- cool even In
the hottest weather." said a model
housekeeper the other day. "Of course
here In Chicago torrid nights are
such an exception that you will not
be compelled to try the experiment
often, but then it is well to have it in
mind. Well, when the heat becomes
lntoleraole, take couple OF pounds
of ice, break it. into fragments, and
put these into a sack, and let it daily
with the breezes, In the windows If
any therebe. Inside Of ten minutes
the temperature of the room will be
sensibly lowered and you cansleep like
a top. OF course 1t will be necessary to
put a pan beneath the sack to catch
the drippings. Thus at a slight expense
good nights rest Is insured. "-Chi-

Many of the ailments and diseases
of O horses foot are caused by i'm
proper shooting. One of the worst of
the evils is the practice by many
blacksmiths Of hot fitting and clip
ping. Burning the sole Of the foot
will in time partially destroy the
sensitive laminae. 1t impairs the
membraneous lining under the coffin
bone and closes the pores OF the horn
causing the hoof to become hard, dry
and brittle. It also impedes the
healthy growth of the hoof. 1t is al
legged that shoes cannot be fitted so
rapidly nor so closely as by hot fitting
and this is generally true, for by this
means the hoof is burned to GORE
spond with the inequalities on the
surface of the shoe, until the latter is
thoroughly Embedded In the horn.
Owners of horses should see that their
blacksmiths do not practice this in
furious mode of fitting shoes -Phila-
delphia Record.
There ia no danger of handling and
feeding the colt too early. The hand=
ling properly should begin as soon as
the colt ia dropped. When two months
old, halter 1t and teach 1t to lead.
The earlier this work is begun after
the colt is made docile by handling,
the easier it is. As s9on as the colt
has become acquainted with the
halter, tie 1t up aud rub and brush it.
This must be done gently until the
colt is accustomed to it, and will sub
nit quietly to 2 more yig9reps use OF
the cloth and brush. The thrift of
the colt is wonderfully increased by a
daily grooming. Tnef I extra thrift
brings such good return that the
grooming Is well paid for. 1t pays to
give the colt meal, wheat bran, and
oats Is sfaana a. az II viii eat Them and
Fit can get at them it viii laaFn to
eat very soon. A good plan is to put
up box behind or at the side of the
dams stall, low enough for the colt
to reach into 1t easily. In this put q
little hrap and meal each time the
dam Is fed. Phe esls will soon Learn
to eat this, when oats may be added
