Louisiana CreOles.

The usual impression obtaining
concerning creoles is that they are all
of them possessed of dark and swar-
the com ,,lexions, hair dark as the ra-
ven's wing, and eyes of ebon dark
ness. A New Orleans acquaintance
says that many have lily-white COM
plexions, gol1en locks, and eyes OF
s.he:,ven's own blue" The creole girl
is usually refined and dainty, sensitive
and sympathetic, light hearted and
sunny tempered. She is usually
brought up quietly. and IS content to
remain at home. OF course the ma
iority are dark-they are nut-brown
maidens.

Care or Brood srare,.

Brood mares, says the American Cul.

exercise upon the road will be much bet.

Feed upon the best of hay and sound,
clean, sweet oats. Musty hay and in.
jured oats are liable 60 cause slipping of
foals. 1t is better for both mare and
foal that the former does not take on
too much flesh. As a rule foals from
very fat mares are much more puny at
birth than those from strong, hearty
ones in only fair condition.
Moderate exercise upon the road or
farm is much better for brood mares in
New England than standing in stalls
day after day. Such as are not exer.
cised by work OF some kind should have
a few hours run in an open yard when
the weather is suitable. 1t will be nee
essary to look after them some then,
for many pregnant mares are inclined
to stand still when out of doors.
Theie are few things which those
who have the care of brood m ares should
be careful to avoid. One is permitting
them to drink too heartily of cold water.
When salt is kept constantly in their
hangers, and they are watered three
times day, there is not much danger.
When they are salted only once week,
and perhaps not so often, the danger is
increased. Probably there are moro

any other single cause. Very few farm

GOOD coU:sTRv ROADS.


One OF the Grs>at Needs Of Many Portions
OF the south.
An Exchange discusses the need of
good country roads in forcible and in
tsresting manner, bringing out few OF
the many advantages to be had where
tee highways are given proper atten-
ton, and noting the fact that college
professors, civil engineers and maya
zine writer's are directing public atten-
tion to the subject of country highways,
and the Vanderbilt University, in Ten
nessee. has gone so far as to provide for
the free instruction in road en-
cheering of one person from each
county in that State. The Balti-
more Sun, which is agitating the ques-
ton in Maryland, points out that the
power required to draw wagon weigh
ing, with its load, one ton on a level,
macadamized road of broken stone is
sixty-five pounds, which is increased to
two hundred pounds on a common dirt
road. Prof. Ely, of Johns Hopkins Uni
yersity, estimates that poor roads cost
the farmer, on an average, of SIS per
horse, and Prof. jerks, Of Knox Col
lege, Illinois, argues that with good
permanent roads freight could be
hauled ten miles on wagons cheaper
than 1t could be taken one mi1e5on a
dirt road to railroad station, unload
ed, put on the cars, and carried to its
destination. OF the social influences Of
good roads, he says that "a large part of
the mental inspiration OF farmer de-
ponds on their ability to attend church,
lectures, concerts. and social gather
ings at distance; and really good
roads, by enabling them to go so much
more easily would likely raise the whole
intellectual tone of the farming COM
mlaity, besides keeping in the health

now forced into the towns "--Arkansas
