Swift Replies to Irish,
| Copyight, 1883, By 4e CsIifornia Associated Pre

LEGEANDE, May 22d.-The merry strains
OF the Island City Band called many peo-
pie together at Turner Hall to hear Califor-
MAS great Protectionist, Hon. John F.
Swift. The Republican majority in Le-
Grande is estimated at fifty persons at
least, and probably will be much larger.
Colonel Irish, in his speech here on Satur-
day, made the statement that under the
present protective system playing cards
were allowed to go untouched, while bibles
were taxed % per cent. This nice little
subterfuge had weight with few persons
in LeGrande, and promised to make some
Democratic votes; but the effect was COM
pletely counteracted by Swift who set forth
the matter in its true light. He gained
many votes by his logic and esrnestness.

THE STOCK RANCH.
Feeding Draueht Horses.

Too little care is taken by farmers gem
orally with the feed of their horses.
In all the large stables of our country, as
we'll as those of Europe, the care and
feeding of horses is systematized. The
horses on the street-car lines have their
coarse feed cut and their grain ground.
This is true, also, of horses used for
heavy teaming. If it pays the owners of
these horses to hire men to prepare food
for them, why will it not pay the farmer
to prepare food for his horses?
Sometimes the rations prepared for
horses doing heavy work all the while
can be used for farm horses when at
heavy work. If they cannot be used
they may suggest good rations that may.
With this object in view, We give the
ration fed to the heavy draught horses
in large teaming corporations OF
England.
The daily allowance of hay is 10
pounds; this is cut up with ora pounds
of clean oat straw. If the horses are
at very heavy work and put in long
hours the fodder ration is increased to
is to 20 pounds, of which is good
meadow hay.
The fitting proportion of the album
mold materials requisite for the forlna-
ton of red blood and vigorous muscle
in hard-worked, heavy horses range
from one to five, or six of the carbona-
ceous Or other food constituents. This
ratio is secured by the liberal use of
beans and peas, which contain weight
for weight, nearly three times the
amount of flesh formers as oats, and
nearly four times that of corn. The
mixture of grain given daily to each
horse consists of 1874 pounds beans,
1.65 pounds peas, 1926 pounds corn, 10
pounds oats. The grain is used cracked,
but not too much crushed Or bruised.
No beans should be used unless clean.
sound,S and weighing 60 pounds to GA
pounds per bushel. Oats are carefully
selected of at least 40 pounds to the
bushel, natural weight, and clean, dry.
sweet, and hard. Every Saturday night
mash, consisting of 81 pounds bran,
and l pound inseed, is served to each
horse, and on Sunday little more than
one half the working day allowance of
corn is given. Many experienced horse
owners would object to this dietary
on account of the large proportion of
corn, which they would reduce, CORE
spondingly increasing the oats; while
others, now that barley is cheap, intro
duce one or two pounds of it into the
feed. The cooking of food for horses
is now properly Reproduced, on account
of its favoring imperfect mastication
and insalivation, with consequent indi-
gestion; while, moreover, it interferes
with condition and endurance.-Fdrm,
Field, and StOckmdn.

THE HOUSEHOLD.
Some Hints About Redroo,r


The care of a bedroom is sometimes
plicity of the work. The STYLE in which
it is usually accomplished is known to
every one.
The coverings are thrown back over
the foot of the bed, permitting them to
drag on the dusty floor, and the window
is left open five or ten minutes, length
OF time popularity considered quite suf-
fcient to air the room. The bed-maker
may possibly turn the mattress, but in
seven cases out of ten the bedclothes
are spread up without going through
this form and tucked in snuggly at the
foot, to prevent the fresh air getting in
or the stale air escaping.
The right way of performing this work
is not SO difficult that one need shrink
from 1t. The coverings should first be
back over two chairs set at the foot of
the PED: The matttess should them be
doubled SO that the air may get to all
parts OF 1t, and left SO for half an hour
to an hour. In very severe winter
weather the time may be lessened. Each
piece OF bed clothing should be shaken
before 1t Is restored to it's place. and the
pillows beaten and patted into shane.
The white spread, that should have
been removed at bedtime the night be-
fore and neatly folded, is now fresh and
smooth. 1t pillow shams are not used.

Spring, at which place he came in con-
tact with four Confederate soldiers,
capturing one, the other three making
their escape. After having disarmed
the poor man he cut one of his ears off,
and then amused himself by shooting
the man several times in the face. After
he was dead, he dragged him into the
woods and there left his remains.
Mounting his horse, he returned to camp
to boast over the cruel murder he had
done, carrying the ear in letter of
mine that had sent by him to friend.
When he arrived at camp, before dis
mounting he handed me letter, say
ing: Here is an answer to your let
ter" and to my great surprise it was my
letter, with the ear of the murdered
man in it.
[ saw many men killed and wounded
during the war, and was wounded my
self; but, taking the dead mans ear in
my hand, with a purple color and the
dry blood on it, gave me the most pow
erful shock of all my experience during
the war. While Woody was sitting on
his horse in front of me, boasting over
the victory he had gained, and large
crowd of soldiers had gathered around
him, I gave him back the dead mans
ear, remarking to him "that he would
die horrible death for the crime he
had committed, and that God would
shorten his days." In short time from
the date Of this incident his health de.
clined and he was discharged from the
army and went to his home in Polk
County, Tennessee; afterward was shot
and badly wounded by a party un-
known, and before he recovered he was
taken with consumption, and lived
about ten months. He died unprepared
to meet his God.
