HEAVY DRAFT HORSES.


WHY They Are Profitable to Raise and
Use on the Farm.
The farmers principal interest is in
the heavy draft horse. Il has been
shown II be the profitable horse for
farm use. and to be profitable horse for
city work 1t, therefore, is in a sense
a very complete general-purpose horse.
1t has not been many years since here
was deep-seated prejudice against the
heavy draft horses, both as to their use
on the farm and their employment in
the city. 1t was alleged that they were
too big and unhandy for farm work,
were devoid Of Intelligence, and so on.
It was claimed that their feet were not
good enough for city pavements, and
there was time that after period OF
use in some Of our cities the rank
prejudice against them secured their
banishment But they have lived down
al this SANDER and to-day find the
reaGiest sale of any horse in the coun-
try. The average farmer has come to
believe that they are profitable to
breed and to use. though he may not
yet have owned any of them. We be-
ieve that the farmer who will breed
these horses will find IL profitable.
There has been one practice that has
been against these horses, and very
Injurious to the interests of farmers,
and it behooves us to put stop to it
as rapidly as possible. 1t is standing
stations rs full-blooded animals, when
they are nothing but grades. and
sometimes but simply related to the
breed that it is claimed they fully rep
resent. Those seeking the services of
stallion can not be too particular
about inquiring into his pedigree. The
reputable breeders and importer. nay
be relied upon to tell the truth ,.Oout
horses that pass through their hands,
and to tell all they know about horses
whose pedigrees trace back TO their
stock. 1t viii pay to 80 to a little
trouble aud even expense to inquire
into the pedigree Of the horse that is
4tanlins in your neighborhood. 1T
Will pay q farmer, too, to make a
study Of these heavy draft breeds rs
tho app pear at our fairs and livestock
shows. Western Rural.

DANGEROUS HEADACHES.
A Physician DiscourseS on Their Causes
and Remedies.

There are many kinds of head
aches" said doctor recently. "In
these days the nervous headache is a
very distinct variety. 1t is generally
located in front of the head, across
the forehead over the eyes. 1t may
be in other parts, Thought the top
of the head, at one or both sides, at
the back, or all over. 1t is painful,
depressing, disabling. A man feels at
the height Of the parOXysm Ike a
hunter who has galloped his legs clean
off, and who could not leap a three.
foot ditch TO save his life. The spur
is of no use, neither is the whip. The
pain in the head is worse to bear than
either, and the patient will rather en-.
dure both whip and spur than make
any kind of effort which will make
the head pain worse. Fhysic by
itself is of no use. There is not sim
gle drug know to medical science
which will OF itself at once and pernla-
nently cure a nervous headache. On
the other hand drugs are not always
needed. A complete change of air and
circumstances will usually take away
the pain in ten or twelve hours. Per-
feet rest Of duration proportional to
the severity and long continuance OF
the symptoms will make the cure per-
manent. There are, of course, meth
DDS of relieving and diminishing the
pain until such time as it may be pos
cibla n obtai,, tho oappIat.a rao+ R,,t
the rest is the thing to be secured at
all costs. II not. the pain goes from
bad To worse and the risk from less to
greater. The final consequence it is i'm
possible to predict, except that a break
down sooner or later is inevitable, and
the breakdown may be for year or
for lifetime. A nervous hea dache is a
danger signal; II it be frequent the
danger is increased; and. If continuous.
a catastrophe is imminent The driver
must put on his breaks at all hazards,
or he will probably soon have a leap
or his life. There are very few sets OF
circumstances in which it is a mans
duty to go on with his work when he
is in this condition, at all risks. Even
a threatened bankruptcy had better be
riskcd than a threatened life. Besides
u man who is in the unyielding grip OF
permanent headache is not really tire
best judge of his own circumstances.
He magnifes and distorts things
Amazingly. He takes counsel of his
fears aud abandOns his hope and cour-
age altogether. Rest Immediately and
sufficient is the sovereign remedy
