Feeding Farm Horses.

An English veterinary surgeon rec 3
ommends that those who have charge of
horses, especially farm horses, should be
taught that the stomach of horse is not
like the rumen of COW, mere recepta-
Gle for food but an essential organ of
digestion of limited capacity, which does
not need to be crammed in order to per-
form its proper functions, and that it
cannot be so treated without danger to
the animal; that the teeth of the horse
are provided for the purpose of masti-
eating the food, and that food which
does not require mastication should be
sparingly, if ever, used. He further
recommends that no horse be put TO
work Immediately after a full meal, and
where a horse has done heavy days
work it should be allowed to stand in
the stable until it is cool and comfort
able before being fed. A little water
may be given, and if little good hay
be put into the rack it will occupy his
attention, and besides requiring proper
mastication will further have the effect
to slightly stimulate the stomach to
secretion and prepare 1t for the recep-
ton of the feed which is to follow.
Should a horse require more food than
usual to supply the extra waste of tissues
caused by hard work give it by all
means, but let it be in excess in its
albuminoids or nutritious constituents,
and let the horse be fed oftener and not
in increased quantities at time. -NeU

A PubIic BenefactOr.

"Who is II. II. Warner, of Rochester, N
Y, whose Safe Remedies, especially War
ner's Safe Cure, have attained such success
and celebrity at home and abroadf
The question Is inspired as much by affec-
tion as curiosity, since through his instru-
mentality hundreds of thousands In both
hemispheres, have been restored to health
and happiness.
Hon. II. II. Warner, then, is n leading and
honored resident of Rochester, not only, but
a prominent and influential citizen of the
United States. On several occasions chosen
by his party as National delegate to nomi-
nate President OF the Republic, he has been
a member of the Republican State Commit
tee and of its Executive Committee. He is a
member Of the American Institution for the
Advancement Of Science; President of the
Rochester Chamber OF Commerce; success
full and upright business man. He has given
away fortunes in charities. The celebrated
and costly Warner Observatory of Rochester

covery of comets has been at once the won
der and delight of the scientific world.
The yellow fever scourge in the South, the
Ohio floods, the fire disasters of Rochester
and other cities awakened his profoundest
sympathieS, and In each instance his check
for from $500 10 5000 swslled the several re-
lief funds. Where other wealthy men give
tens and hundreds, he gives hundreds and
thousands.
His charities are as ready and magnificent
as his enterprises and public spirit are bound
less.
The world has need Of more such men.
An incident led him into the manufacture
of medicine. Seized some twelve years ago
with what the abest physicians termed fatal
kidney disease, he was miraculousy restored
to health by what is now known as Warmers
Safe Cure. At once he resolved to make
known the merits of so potent a remedy, and
the consequence is that to-day he has i'm

United States, Canada, England, Germany,
Austria, Australia and Burmah. Sales of
his Safe Remedies are enormous, and their

The true auchovy is fish of the her.

Mediterranean, where it is found in vast
shoals and is caught aud picked in salt
for use as a condiment. There are seven
known species of this fish, differing
chiefly in the form of the fins and the
color Of the skin. They are members of
the herring family, as are the shad and
the sprat. The Mediterranean species
is not a native of that sea, but its abode
is in the Atlantic, whence it comes to
the shores of Europe and of some of the
islands (as the Bermudas) to spawn; it

The Trees of America and Europe

That this country once consisted large
ly of unbroken forests is well known to
all intelligent persons, and although
sections have been greatly denuded none
of the original species have become eX-
tinct. Few persons, however, are fully
aware of the remarkable number of the
species as compared with other parts of
the world. In a report on Michigan
State forestry DIR. w. j. Beal, an officer
of the Commission, makes some inter-
esting statements not only in regard to
the forests of that State, but of the trees
and shrubs of North America and Eu-
rope as well.
The relative importance of the trees
and shrubs of this country as compared
with those of Europe is surprising.
Great Britain has one specie OF bass
wood, one maple, not over twenty feet
high; one cherry, from ten to twenty
feet high; one small ash, two elms, two
poplars, one beech. large but not high /;
one small white birch, one specles of
pines inferior to our white pine, and a
species of oak which sometimes grows to
a great size. About ten species of trees
are natives of her soil. Michigan, with
half the territory, has seventy species.
Great Britain has no white wood, no
white or red cedar, no hickory.
Michigan has six species of maple of
tree size, a Eastwood, white wood,
honey locust, kentucky coffee tree, two
cherry, pepperidge, five species of ash,
sassafras, three elms, a blackberry, a
mulberry, buttonwood, black walnut,
butternut, SIX hickory, about twelve
oak, a chestnut, beach, four treebirch,
four willow, of tree size, six poplar, three
pine, four spruce, one larcb, one arbor
vitG and red cedar.
in the Atlantic region of North Ameri-
ca there are 292 species; in the Pacific
region 1913 species. In all Europe there
are only eighty-five species of trees.
Naturally the question arises, what
has caused this great DISPARITY Scien-
fists explain it to their own satisfaction
by attributing il to glacial action. Away
back in the tertiary period the trees of
the regions now possessing an Arctic eli
mate were such as now thrive in warm,
temperate zone like that of Georgia and
California. Then came the glacial epoch,
when snow and ice tor most or all OF
the year extended to the Ohio River. At
the approach of cold the trees slowly
retreated southwark as generation fol-
lowed generation. As the climate again
gradually grew warmer the trees and
other plants slowly migrated northward.
In similar manner during the glacial
epoch the plants of Europe were driven
southwark. Europe, says DIR. Gray in
the AmericdR journal of s, ience, is all
within the limits generally assigned TO
severe glacial action Most of the plants
OF the warm temperate region had per-

The Earth's Duration.

The present age of the earth has been
placed by Sir William Thomson at 10O,-
900. 900 years, while the speculations OF
others have given much larger figures.
M. Adolphe d'Assier, who believes such
estimates to be greatly exaggerated, con-
siders the life of the earth in three
periods, which he terms the igneous OF
nebulo stellar stadium, the stadium of
solar illumination or of organic life, and
the stadium of darkness, cold and death.
The first, which began with the de.
tachment of the terrestrial nebula from
the solar, and ended in the formation
of the crystalline crust of the globe
he calculates from physical laws to have
been 500, 900 years in duration. The
second, comprising the present epoch,
and to close with the extinction Of the
sun, embracing the entire cycle of geo
logical formations-is found by geologi-
cal and physical evidence as likely to
have total length of %, 200, 900 years,
of which more than half has passed.
The third stadium, starting from the
end Of solar illumination, and closing in
the terrible and inevitable catastrophe
of the fall of the earth to the sun, and
momentarily frightened by the iucan-
descence of the earth as the moon crashes
into it will have length that cannot
be calculated until the precise rate of ac-
celeration Of the motion of the earth
around the centre OF attraction is known,
but will proably be, at the lowest esti-
mate 100, 900, 600 years or more. Upon
the whole, the present age of the earth
appears to be about 10000, 600 years.
This is but a small part of its existence
aud everything leads to the belief that
its total evolution through the immen-
sity of space will exceed million cen
tuTies

Planting an Asparagus Bed.

The best plan for obtaining early re-
suits is to secure one or two year old
asparagus roots and then plant them in
rich soil and give good and clear culti-
walton. The rows should be four feet
apart and the plants not less than two
feet apart in the row. If you want the
asparagus for your own use, do not set
the crowns more than four inches deep,
that is, have them covered with four
inches of good rich soil when the bed is
levelled off after planting. If the soil is
light and naturally well drained 1t need
not be plowed more than ten or twelve
inches for the reception of the plants,
adding little manure at the time, then
apply as much as you please over the
crowns or on the surface of the bed. The
strength of the manure will be carried
down by the rains, as rapidly as it is
needed by the roots. 1t is waste of
manure to bury it deeply, even for
asparagus, although it is usually recon-
mended in preparing ground for this
vegetable In selecting variety for cul-
tivation you can scarcely go amiss, for all
the varieties offered in nurserymen's and
seedsmen's catalogues are one and the
same thing under diffezent names. If
you bury Conover's colossal you will find
some sprouts, as they appear above
ground, are of a purplish color, others
pale red, with an occasional one greenish
white. showing that there is no one dis.
tinct variety known under this name. If
you secure good, healthy roots, and give
them good or extra care, you need not
fear the results. "Giant asparagus" is
only obtained by what may be termed
giant cultivation. -Nelo York Sun.

Leaky Tin Roofs

Farmers who live remote from any
place where there is a tinsmith are often
troubled by leaks in the roofs, or cave
troughs. Any farmer can repair them
and make them stronger than before.
Find the leak, and apply q good coat of
rather thick paint; put on a piece Of
old bagging or coarse muslin, then a
second coat of paint, rubbing it well in,
aud smoothly. Then cover with piece
of tin, mailing it down tightly, close to
the edge, using large-headed tacks;
those known as "a or 500. Swede's iron
tacks are best. Then give another coat
of paint, and the leak is not only re
paired, but that part will last much
longer than the rest. Old fruit cans are
just the thing for the purpose; set them
on top of hot stove till the solder is
melted, and then fatten them out.

COntagiOn in Postage Stamps.

The Sanitary Ne0s calls attention to
the fact that postage stamp may, in
various ways, convey contagion. One
of the simplest and most plausible is
that in which postage stamp, partially
attached to a letter to pay return post
age, is sent by person infected with
some disease TO another person. The
disease is transferred, in the first place,
to the adhesive stamp through the
saliva. and in being attached TO the
letter by the receiver the poison may be
transmitted to him in turn through the
saliva. Another cause may be the in
fection of the stamp with disease germs.
The stamp, having been exposed in a
room where a diseased person lies, may
become slightly mOistened and thus re-
tain the germ. That this is true can be
proved very simply by a microscopical
examination,

Sheep HusDandry.

Numbered with many valuable papers
that have been read before the Wiscon-
sin Farmers Institute is one by Harrison
Cole, of Dane County, to beginners in
sheep husbandry. Following are ex-
ira IS that can hardly fail to interest
prospe tive sheep growers;
In de -idiug the breed be guided by
the branch of sheep husbandry you in
tend TO follow. If you wish to raise
lambs TO sell at from eight to twelve
weeks old you must have one or both
parents of the coarse. wooled variety for
the sake of early maturity. If your OBJ
ject is wool aud mutton there is no breed
that is equal to the Merinos. They will

Having selected your breed for a spe-

breeding to a fixed type. On the sub
iect of coarse and fine woods Mr.. Cole
gives figures which are decidedly in
favor of the fine woods for money in his

that the trouble is more to give too little
than too much. One ounce of cracked
wheat is quite enough for young brood
daily, divided into four meals. The food
should be given on board or pan beyond
the reach of the hen, which should be
confined in a coop. After ten days or
two weeks the little brood will forage
for themselves very actively if given a
run on some grass or in garden and
will pick up good deal of food that is
suitable for them. But the food may be
