1t was carriage that ran on four very high
wheels. The driver sat in front of the pas
sengers on each side like those on an Irish
jaunting car. The horse was underneath the
affair and wiggled along with only his head
sticking out like turtles. The beauty of the
arrangement was q four-foot belly-band that
went underneath the horse, and when the CON
Germ started down hill the driver turned a
crank and lifted the horse off the ground, and
the whole business, horse and ALL rolled on
together till a level road was reached, when
the crank was again turned, the horse lowered
till his feet reached the ground, when business
was resumed in the old way The advantage
of the invention was that it enabled the horse
to ride down hill; the disadvantage was that it
could not foresee and follow the windings of
The road There is no knowing how much
might come of it, though, had it not happened
that the machine ran off the track one day

badly that when he got Well he declined to

PYRETHRUM AND MOSQUITOES.

once read in some paper that burning
pyrethrum, or Persian insect powders. i'll
room infested with mosquitoes would de-
stroy all of them and do away with the ne
cessity Of using mosquito bar. If this be
so will you please tell me through The GA
ZETTE how TO arrange for burning the py-
rethrum! {. W. j.
Wilson county, Tex.
1t is not at all probable that fooling with
pyrethrum as mosquito antidote would
pay you for the trouble. We tried it on,
one time. and that one time was entirely
enough for us Having heard from sup
posed-to-be high authority how glorious a
thing pyrethrun was TO cook their geese for
the mosquitoes, and being then in Texas
town where the mosquito was ruling citi-
zen, we followed directions and went for
the said mosquitoes with pyrethrum. a
neat little cone of the powder, about the
size of lady'S thimble, was erected on
scrap of tin, and the top touched off with a
lighted match. 1t smOuldered quite beauti
fully and very soon every mosquito took
with a leaving. We were jubilant, but not
for long. A dull kind of feeling soon began
to strike US about the head, 10 be quickly
followed Dy severe Ned0acne, ana uttle
more time had elapsed ere we, like the mos
quitoes, had to take with a leaving After
few hours exposure to the open air we
began to feel better, though not well, so we
went back with broom to sweep out the
dead mosquitoes and go to bed. AS we
opened the door they met US with a cheer,
apparently delighted to find that we, like
themselves, had survived the ordeal. Not
a mosquito was missing. Where they went
at the beginning of the experiment we
could never make out to d certainty, though
we suppose they went up and stuck on the
ceiling till the storm was over. Pyrethrum
burned in tight and closed room Will not
destroy mosquitoes, as claimed though this
is more than could be safely said for the
man if he stopped in to see the experiment

THE HORSE MOST IN DEMAND.

Good farm horses are always in demand
says the Farmers Home Journal, but of
course they don't bring the fancy prices
that may be counted upon for horses of
some other classes The horse now in
good demand at fancy figures is 4 nice,
smooth roadster with good head on him.
He is expected TO be a horse that can pull
a buggy down the street in 300, 30, 30
never be glutted. and this kind of horse the
farmers and small breeders can produce
There is 10 per cent. more money in breed
ing even the $50 roadster. if he has the
qualities, than there is in raising cattle,
hogs. corn, wheat or cotton. OF course
raising such horses need not check the
farmer in his operations of raising all the
other products named, but this is simply to
show that there is more clear money in the
horse of this character than there is in any
of them, all things considered.
Mixed husbandry is a good thing, and
should De resoried to so far as it can be
made profitable, and the breeding of nice
class of roadster horses is certainly one of
the best things that could be mixed into it
at the present time. The more it is mixed
in without serious confiiction with other
important branches. the better off in the
end will be the farmer who resorts to such
mixing.

WATER As \ FERTILIZER.

In his progress report on irrigation in the
United States Mr.. Richard j. Hinton says
undoubtedly our oldest irrigation is that
carried on by the Indian dwellers-the
eighteen PuebIos found in New Mexico and
the Moquis, Sapori, Primas, Maricopas
and Papagoes, resident in the present ter
riJory of Arizona. Evidence exists in our
southwest region of larger works and wider
fields made by people long since extinct. >
Mr.. Hinton then goes on to state that
1.-THE value of irrigation as fertilizer Of
the soil may be seen in the fact that these
Prima Indians of Arizona have cultivated
the same land-a portion of which they now
occupy-for II least 500 years without fer
tilizing. Their cultivation, though rude,
has been extensive and well conducted. AS
large crops are now raised as any of which
the traditions of these Indians bear record.
Besides these Pueblo Indian settlements.
the valley OF the Rio Grande for nearly 400
years has been the seat, as far north as
Southwest Colorado and as far south as
Eagle Pass in Texas, of settlements the
members of which have cultivated the same
soil continuously by irrigation, and without
fertilization. This population, when we
first came into contact with it, was known
to consist OF not less than 100000 persons.
They were organized into village communi-
ties. the members of which cultivated small
areas along the valleys of the streams from
which the water was obtained and held in
common. Their descendants still form
considerable part of the population, and
their methods have helped TO shape the
economic life of portion of Southern Col
orado New Mexico ana q large part of
Southwestern Texas
Referring to the value and economy of
irrigation over rainfall, Mr.. Hinton says
the difference between the two was forci-
bly, illustrated in paper read before the
California state horticultural society in
1889 by Mr.. L. " Holt of San Bernardino.
Mr.. Holt shows that in Florida the rainfall
exceeds fifty inches annually, or over four
inches per month. In San Bernardino
county the average for nineteen years of
the month Of Janua-y (which is the wettest
month N the year. ma been only little
over three inches. What is the remedy,
provided one had it in his power to apply
any remedy that might suggest itself! he
asks. At the first blush, ne adds. an in
crease of the rainfall TO that of Florida
would probably be proposed. 4 little
thought would tell it that Florida's heavy
rainfall is not saving her. The people of
Florida are clanoring for something that
Will bring the productiveness of their re.
