Where Nobody Starves,

Within a hundred miles of the east
coast of Australia no native in an un.
crippled condition has ever died from
lack of digestible food-a. rather com
prehensive term in a country where
I'm roots are boiled like potatoes,
and snails and grasshoppers are con
sidered tidbits. Strange to say. the
martyrs of that horrid diet get old,
as proof that freedom from care is,
after all, the main condition of long.
evity. A similar phenomenon may be
observed in the villages of Central
Russia, where mental stagnation pre-
walls in it's ugliest forms, but where
charity and parish poor laws protect
every native from the risk of actual
starvation.-Professor Oswald in
Good Words.

Farm Notes,

Clean out the outlets of surface
drains that may be obstructed.
Feeding sulphur twice a week will
in many cases cure hens OF feather
pulling.
One pound of cheese contains more
nutritive elements than two pounds
of beef. 49,.
Close observers say that skim milk
is worth 20 cents a hundred pounds
for feeding to calves and hogs.
Are your stables clean? For the
sake of those who have to drink the
milk-as we'll as the cows-be sure
they are clean. ..>..-..
Begin now and secure the seeds of
your garden vegetables. Do not wait
until you are ready, only to be delay
ed by the mails or some other cause.
No matter how we'll fed the stock
may be, the greatest gain is secured
when the food is varied. A mess of
green food may contain but little
nutrition, bat it may promote the
appetite and induce an animal to con
sumo more food.

Breaking Colts.

My plan is to tame a colt in the
barn; get him used to being handled,
etc., before any attempt at breaking.
After this use the rope This rope
should be a $$s-inch rope twenty feet
long. l tie a knot the same as would
for a rope halter about the neck;
then pass the rope over the neck, put
ting 1t around the under jaw catching
it inside the loop arouud the jaw,
this forms a purchase over the neck. 1
now have the best "'bitting rig" that
can be used With this rope I teach
the colt to do my bidding. If obsti-
nate, gave a few smart jerks from
side to side. l avoid too long lessons
at first After he is subdued and
drives to the lines, I hitch him to my
breaking cart, which ismade with pole
thllls and a stout cross-bar close be-
hind the colt. I use an inch and a
half kicking-strap, which prevents him
from using his heels if he should be so
inclined. In my experience OF many
years In colt breaking, I have always
found that a colt we'll broken to drive
single, never fails to drive OR work by
the side of another horse. The essen
tial point in breaking colts is to get
perfect control of the mouth.

Where Politeness Was Expensive

Where Politeness Was Expensive.
The Spanish lover has a very pretty
way OF saying, 81 throw myself at
your feet, senorita." OF course he
does nothing of the kind. The Span
ish hostess says to her friends, "Pos-
sess yourself of my house, it is all
yours" but she does not expect them
to take actual possession. The words
are the flower of chivalry.
But an occasional visitor takes
these polite people at their word, and
they are too polite to explain the mis-
take. When Gen. and Mrs. Grant
were in Cuba, says the Detroit Free
Press, they were invited to dine at the
palace OF the governor general in Ha-
vana. In the evening a ball was given,
which was attended by the beauty OF
the city.
Among the senoritas was one lady
who stood conversing with the Ameri-
can generals wife She was superbly
dressed, and carried a marvellous fan,
which had descended to her from her
great-grandmother. It was costly
affair of carving, lace and diamonds.
Mrs: Grant admired it, upon which
the Spanish lady at once handed it to
her, with the usual remark:
at is yours, madame, with~the
greatest felicity. Do me the great faV>
or'to possess yourself of it,
= Mrs. Grantwas delighted; shewarna-
ly thanked the lady and kept the fan,
nor would the dismayed senorita,
who had lost her heirloom, permit the
mistake to be announced.

Mule or Horse Colts.

Many thoroughbred mares are
mated to jacks in Kentucky. and aft
erward they are bred to horses, but
most breeders are agreed that the
first sire affects the blood of the dam
and that frequentl y-especially if the
jack be a Maltese-the stripes on the
legs and the dark of the shoulders ap-
pear in the colts. So much for looks,
1t is also true that sometimes the evil
dences OF the former mating with a
jack are not found. I have myself
seen a pair OF dark bay coach horses,
the offspring of dam that has raised
a mule colt, showing no signs of
stripes or off color, but we know that
there are exceptions to almost any
rule.
THE AGE AT WHICH TO BREED.
A mare should be governed by cir
cumstances. Any animal used for re-
production should be mature. A mare
at2 years old is not mature. If de-
slrable, a mare can be bred at 4 years,
so that she drops her foal at 5. Then
we May look for fine colt. If she be
very large and there is a reason for
stunning her growth, she may be bred
SO as to have foal at years old.
We American farmers are all too much
in a hurry, We want to see results.
