insist Oh taking drive with the an
imal alone, and should demand q
guarapteeAhat the horse may be re-
turned if not found as represented.
Some of the desirable traits in a
family horse are kindness of dispo-
sition, good size and strength, and
the ability to walk fast. It is of
special Importance that he should
travel smoothly and draw the car
riage evenly, some horses having
the disagreeable habit of starting
suddenly, and thus jerking the vehi-
Gle whenever they are urged forward
with the voice or touch of the
whip.
A horse with very heavy coat of
hair is to be avoided, since this
makes grooming much more diff
cult matter. The thick coat induces
such abundant perspiration as to
make the horse look unkempt when
ever he has been driven. Unless
this perspiration is thoroughly clean
ed out, thr hair will soon get into a
very filthy condition. Another point
to notice is the position of the name.
A few horses are to be found with
this falling over upon the left side of
the neck, causing good deal of vex-
alton in Harvesting, since it is al
most sure to get into the buckle
when buckling the throat-lash of the
bride or halter. AS this is the side
on which horse is usually hitched
in the stall, it gives him chance to
rub his name if he is so disposed
and he frequently is. Width of face

NO. 80

The value of the dairy products of
the United States reaches into the
hundreds of millions annually dis
tributed among the farmers. No
monopoly controls it, no syndicate
or trust threatens its success, and
every farmer who owns a COW is en-
titled to portion of its dividends
according to the amount OF intelli-
gent care he bestows upon her. The
dairy business is renovator, re-
storer of wasted soil fertility, as
well as an educator of the man. To
be a good dairyman means to broad
en- and become a better man and
citizen. Wherever you find sec-
ton mainly devoted to dairying,
there you find prosperity.

THE QUEST FOR THE FAINT.
LY HORSE.-A good many of

LY HORSE.-A good many of
us, at least once in our life, have
occasion to purchase family horse,
and it is also true that many feel
considerable diffidence in approach
ing the matter. There is prevalent
impression that horse can conceal
within his person more tricks, he
reditary weaknesses and other short
comings than any other animal. The
fact that so much unsoundness, both
of body and disposition, can be con-
cealed from unskilled eyes, makes
the owner of. these eyes suspicious
of every piece of horsefesh that is
offered him. It is fortunate that
this is so, for such suspicion has a
tendency toward caution. I would
suggest that the intending purchaser
of family horse let the average
"jockey" severely alone. The in
discriminate trading of good, bad
and Indifferent horses has, in too
many cases, the effect of dulling that
portion of human being called the
conscience.
The most desirable course to pur-
sue when the purchaser is not an ex-
pert in equine matters is to take the
horse on trial, after having made as
good selection as is possible from
external appearances. A weeks
driving will bring out the good and
bad qualities of a horse pretty effec-
tually. It can be seen then wheth-
er the animal SHES or not. 1.-The
does, don't finish out the week of
trial, that fault should condemn him
if he has no other. With a shying
horse one is always nervously on
the watch, and very likely also on
the edge Of an embankment, and
lucky he is if he goes no further.
Aweek's driving will also show
whether the horse is afraid of the
cars, the noise of machinery and nu-
merous other sights and sounds that
are met constantly. A horse :.may
have the finest disposition in. the
world, and yet, if easily frightened
or addicted to shying, he is entirely
untitled to be family horse that
women and children may drive; and
family horse that mans wife can
not be trusted to drive is exceeding
lly poor property. If the owner will
not let the horse go out on trial
.and many dealers are not willing to
do this-at least the buyer should

advised him to put thoroughbred
Jersey bull at the head of his herd.
The first year he selected twelve Of
his calves to keep, and each year he
did the same thing, breeding to the
sire each time. This man chose
wisely, and now his herd of thirty
COWS produces an average of 275
pounds of butter per COW. He de-
clares that it costs no more to feed
these animals than it cost to feed his
old herd, which gave him only $50
pounds of butter each, or just about
enough to supply each cow with her
living. One method of reducing
cost is by the use of a proper ration.
A cow must be fed regularly in or
der to get good return from her.
The farmer will feed his hog to the
verge of cholera, but he will starye
his COW half way Into the stfaw
stack, just as if the COW would not
give him far more valuable return
than the pig for the food given her.
The New Hampshire experiment
station has discovered that the cost
of producing milk from the best ra-
ton is only 3-4 cents per quart,
while from the poorest ration it cost
5 IA cents per quart. The Cover
nor said that at his creamery they
bought sixty pigs weighing about
fifty pounds each, and fed them for
fifty-six days on nothing but.skim
milk. They were then sold, and it
was found that the skim milk used
in this way was worth, and has
brought % IA cents per 100 pounds.
It was also discovered that at the
live weight of 100 pounds it took 10
per cent more food to make pound
of pork than it did at 80 pounds; at
200 pounds, it cost "a per cent more;
and at 800 pounds it cost 333 to 3S
per cent. Consequently it is much
more profitable to tarn off your pigs
when they weigh 100 to $50 pounds
than it is to keep them sptil they
get to be much heavier. o.

IF USE OF SALT.-In many cases
n of disordered stomach, tea
spoonful of salt is a certain cure.
In the violent internal aching, term
ed collie, add teaspoonful of salt to
pint of cold water, drink it and 90
to bed; it is one of the speodiest
remedies known. The same will
revive person who seems almost
dead from receiving a heavy fall etc.
In an apoplectic fit, no time
should be elost in pouring down salt
water, if sufficient sensibility re-
mains to allow of swallowing; If not,
the head must be sponged with cold
water with mustard added, and the
legs briskly rubbed, all bandages
removed from the neck, and cool
apartment procured if possible. In
many cases of bleeding at the lungs,
when other remedies failed, DR..
Rush found two teaspoonsful of salt
completely stayed the blood.
In case of bite from mad dog,
wash the part with strong brine for
an hour, then bind on some salt
with rag.
In toothache, warm salt and wa
ter held to the part, and renewed
two or three times will relieve in
most cases. If the gums be affect
ed, wash the mouth with brine. If
the teeth be covered with tartar.
wash twice day with salt and wa
ter.
In swelled neck, wash the part
with brine, and drink it twice a day,
also, until cured.
Salt will expel worms, if used in
the food in moderate degree, and
aids digestion, but salt meat is in
furious if used much.
