THE HORSE.
IN You Want Good Service From Your
Horse Care For Him.

N You Want Good Service From Your
Horse Care For Him.
To take the utmost care of the horse
should be a fixed rule for every farmer,
and a standing order for every hired
man who has to do with the horses. The
old saying: "a merciful man is merciful
to his beast" is no doubt true, and
piece of philosophy sustained by the OBJ
servation and experience of the ages.
But this is hardly enough to meet the
case with those who have, perhaps, sew
eral horses or teams, and the care of
which is left to hired help. The beast
is not his" and in cases where he
might be fairly good-tempered man he
becomes thoughtless and careless about
the covering of the horse or horses. Our
point is that the owner must provide
good blankets, and make the command
imperative, with a penalty, that they be
used.
We GO much further than the merci-
full argument Many owners of horses
have been brought up, or have ''come
up" in way to have no feeling for their
animals. The idea that horse should
actually suffer from the cold, would

important. Such men often have one
sensitive spot. 1t is the pocket. Prove
to them that blanketing VIII save them
expense of grain and hay, and, there
fore, much more than pay the additional
expense in the costs of the blankets,
and you will touch a more responsive
chord than that of pity for the shiver-
ing animal. But this fact and prin-
ciple have been established in thous-
ands of instances. Again is goes with
out saying that the actual value of the
animal is increased by keeping him in
good order and good appearance, such
as results from careful blanketing.
To lose good horse is great loss to
any man; often it is felt more than the
mere loss of the money value. But how
many horses take cold and die from the
effects of neglect properly to blanket
Other diseases are easy developed in
connection with or as result of cold.
A good blanket then, rightly used, is
in the naturx of an insurance policy and
better. In the latter case you lose your
horse ans get money consideration,
scarcely ever adequate, and you are put
to great inconvenience till you replace
your horse. In the other case you save
your horse and probably he will increase
in value, while rendering constant and
valuable service.
Proper care of your horses at this sea-
SON, and during the winter, requires
blanketing not only in the stable and at
night, but more iraperatiN ely when they
are left standing ia harness. To be sure
most farmers take their stable-blanket
along when they are out driving in tho
winter. They do not always remembeF

goes, Will Yet Flourish in Florida.
The cocoanut culture seems to have a
good future in this country. Some time
ago our Consul in Manila sent different
varieties of that fruit to the Depart
ment of Agriculture, and Prof. HI. E.
Van Deman, the efficient chief of the
Division of PomologY, had them, by
order of Secretary Rusk, distributed in
the southern part of Florida, as expert
ence has shown that the climate and
soil of that part of the State is we'll
adapted for the development of that de-
licious fruit
The same department recently re-
ceived six varieties of the grated trees
of the choicest mangoes from Bombay,
India, which were also sent to Southern
Florida. This is the first time any OF
the choice varieties of this fruit have
been introduced. There is no fruit even
in the East Indies that is more highly
priced than the best varieties of the
mango, and this country is to be con-
graduated upon the introduction of it
here.
At this occasion will remark that the
Department of Agriculture, which has
received new impulse under the direo-
tion of Secretary Rusk, is doing all in
its power to improve agriculture in this
| country, and considerable attention is
paid to fruit-growing, with great sue
cess. Prof. Van Deman is a pomologist
of long experience, upon whom our
| fruit-growers look as an authority, and
the thousands of inquiries which are
sent to him during the year are all

Complaints From Hemp-Growers.

Some of the hemp-growers of Ken
lucky are complaining lit is an old
grievance) because buyers insist on liz
pounds of hemp for the hundred weight.
1t is an old and foolish custom, made in
old times to cover the supposed amount
of stalk left in the lint in breaking.
There is law defining that
100 pounds shall be consid-
cred the hundred weight, but
buyers still hold 20 the old custom and
buy at so much for the 112 pounds. 1t
makes little difference as to the price
paid, but there is no sense in clinging
to the old method, especially as it makes
it more trouble to calculate. Any farmer
can break up this custom, so far as he is
concerned, by simply selling his hemp
at price per pound or per hundred
pounds.

Catarrhal Deafness-Hay Feyer-A New
Home Treatment.
Sufferers are not generally aware that
these diseases are contagious, or that they
are due to the presence of living parasites
in the lining membrane of the nose and
eusCachian tubes. Microscopic research,
however, has proved this to be fact, and
the result of this discovery is that a simple
remedy has been formulated whereby
Catarrh, Hay Fever and Catarrhal Deafness
are permanently cured in from one to three
simple applications made at home by the
patient once in two weeks.

PHILADELPHIA, March "A man sup
posed to be Rev. Father Herbert Feron, of
Baltimore, died in the Pennsylvania Hos
pital, this city. this afternoon under circum-
stances which led the hospital authorities to
believe that he had been severely beaten by
some unknown parties.
He registered at the st. Charles Hotel on
the evening of February % as "P. Her
bert" He went away Yesterday morning
and was not seen again until this morning,
when he was brought back, in what the
hotel people described as a patrol wagon,
and placed in chair in the hotel rotunda,
having been picked up on the street in an
unconscious condition. 1t was seen that
Herbert was very ill, and he was
taken to the hospital. The sick
man complained to the physicians OF
excruciating pains in the chest and
abdomen. One of the doctors, discovering
that his condition was very serious, asked
him if he had any relations to communicate
no one. If must die, 1 cannot help it.
He had given the name or P. Herbert, and
his age as 80 years, and he stuck to this to
the last. Immediately after uttering the
sentence quoted above, he rolled over on his
cot and died.
Examination of the body revealed the
presence OF bruises on the abdomen. chest,
arms and other portions of the
body. Papers found among the
dead mans effect at the hotel revealed his
true name and showed him to have been
connected with the Jesuit institute at Fred
erick. Nd, and also with Catholic church
in Baltimore. He had evidently been a
wanderer for some time past, having lived
at Montreal, New Orleans and several West
ern cities. 1t was also shown that he had
corresponded with Rev. j. R. Slattery, of
St. Joseph's Seminary, Baltimore, and that
gentleman has been communicated with by
the Coroner.

A MURDER MYSTERY.
The Man Who Identified n Body Arrested
for the KiIling-The Tour Of an Aristo-
cratic English Party Ends In

Ierr1Dle Tragedy.
NIAGARA FALLS, ONT, March O.
| Burchell, who identified the body of the
murdered man found near Princeton, Ont,
as that Of F. c. Benwell, of London, Eng
land, was arrested here this morning on sus-
picion of being the murderer. Benwell,
BurcheIl and wife, and a young man named
Pelley formed an English party which came
to America on the steamer Brittanic. ALI
came here subsequently. Benwell is alleged
to have gone West, and Pelley went to New
York and was expected back last night All
trains from New York were watched closely
in order to intercept young Pelley, and
when the Erie flyer arrived this morning
he was taken to Police Magistrate Hills
office, where private consultation was held,
after which Burchell was arrested, being
found at Baldwin's boarding house.
The police are confident that they have
the right man. 1t is understood that some
thing happened while the party were at
Buffalo that will throw considerable light
upon the mystery. Pelley was seen, but
declined to be interviewed, as he had prom
ised the authorities that he would not say
anything. 1t has been learned since the ar
rest that Burchell was in this place one year
ago, accompanied by his wife, the same
woman who Is with him now, and stopped
at the Imperial Hotel, registering as Mr..
and Mrs. Somerset. They arrived at mid
night and remained a dav or two. Upon
their return on February 10 last, they went
to the same hotel. The proprietor recog-
nized them. They renewed their acquaint-
ance, but Somerset said that on account of
his good family connections and his coming
on this trip to trade horses, he took the
name of Burchell, and wished to be called
and known by that alias.
Burchell is dark complexioned and about
80 years of age. His wife is slender, a
rather pleasant-faced blonde, and has the
appearance Of being highly educated, re-
fined English lady. Pelley is about %
years old. He has fair complexion and is
we'll educated and refined. He is said to be,
the son of clergyman in England. When
asked if he had known Burchell any length
of time before he left England he said not
long, but that he knew Mrs. Burchelf's fam
lily well. Mrs. Burchell feels her position
keenly, crying most of the time, and at
times reaching Mysteries. Burchell will be
brought up tomorrow morning.
