From the American A yrcuIturstl
The horse, under judiciouS manage
ment, can endure without suffering very
great degree of solar heat. The auimal is
believed to he indigenous to the continent
of Asia, where, in "A state of nature, 1t was
exposed to an extreme degree of heat.
Wherever the horse has been carried Ply
man, his powers of speed have been most
largely developed under the influence of a
genial climate. The warm air of Ken.

some Of the greatest horses known to

climates stunt the growth and diminish
the speed of horses without adding to
their powers of endurance The thirsty

answer Is, the Arab is judiclously cared

derstands his needs many citizens of our
favored land are more ignorant than an
owl as regards the needs of horses The
most fre?uent fatal casualties occurred in
July amongst the horses used on street
cars and those in the service OF the second
class express companies. The street car
horses succumbed to overwork and the
want of comfortable stablng, where they
could at night recover from the eXhaus-
lion of the previous day, The poorer class
of express horses died from many causes
they were overworked, badly fed that is,

themselves with cold water, then bolted
lean oats which it was under the circum-

The president may write me ssages about
civil service reform until he is tired, but
he can not explain away the fact that,
from the days OF Jackson until now, there
has never been so clean a sweep in remOv-
ing men from office. The report of First
Assistant FOstmAster-General Stevenson,
covering the first three years of Cleve-
lands administration, shows that there
have been 5S2SS cl anges of postmasters.
