New England weather Bulletin.


The weekly crop bulletin, issued last Sat
urday by the New England Meteorological
society. showed that the drouth was affect
ing New England crops, though the smoke
from forest fires obscured the sun and
caused beneficial coudiness. The rain
which set in on Friday night was badly
needed and would do much good. The OBJ
server at West Farlee, this state, reported
grass no farther advanced than week ago
and nearly all vegetation at a standstil.
Pastures and fields were suffering every
where. Many observers thought the early
May frosts and freeze had not injured APP
ples. The trees had blossomed very full,
but were being greatly ravaged by the tent
caterpillar. 1t would seem that some unit
ed action was necessary for the extermina-
ton of the pest. The early grains are now
mostly sown. Potato planting had begun
i'm the north and was well under way or
completed in the south. The planting of
corn had not begun to any extent except in
the latter section. At New Britain, Conn,
corn was coming up. The observer at
Bratteboro stated that large acreage of
onions has been put in, but they are start
ing slowly. At Montague, Mass, onions
and tobacco are up and wedding has begun.
Tobacco is generally looking well and will
soon be ready for setting. Later reports
from the strawberry growing sections indi-
cate that the amount of damage done by
frost as reported previously was greatly
overestimated. The outlook for all crops,
after Saturdays rain, was very good.

Charles Agniel, of GRANVILLE, ILL.,, writes.
II have just been out to the farm of Jacob
Merriman, the owner of the pacing stallion
Timber Jim (the sire of Tom Covington),
to see pair of twins, one being mule and
the other FLY colt The mule is by
Spanish jack, the flly colt by Shuiller Ia
son OF Timber JIM. Mr.. Merriman ex-
plains thus: Two years ago he stinted the
mare to the jack and she failed to catch.
Last year he returned her to the jack, and
as soon as the service was completed he let
the young horse to the mare, and last Tues
day morning, May ,, the mare foaled the
lilly and in about half an hour foaled the
mule. The mule is 80 inches high, the tilly
IA inches. They are both doing we'll. The
mule is light chestnut and the iilly is a
coal black. PhNddeIphia Record

How the Government shoes Horse.

These are the instructions of the war de-
partment to smiths who shoe cavalry horses
In preparing the horses foot for the shoe
do not touch with the knife, the frog sole,
or bars. In removing the surplus growth
of that part of the foot which is the seat OF
the shoe use the cutting pincers and rasp'
and not the knife. The shoeing-knife may
be used if necessary in using the top-clip.
Opening the heels or making cut in the
angle of the wall at the heel must not be
allowed. The rasp may be used upon the
part of the foot when necessary, and the
same applies to pegs. No cutting with the
knife is permitted-the rasp alone is nee
essary. Flat-footed horses should be treat
ed as the necessity of each case may require
Vermont phÅ“nix. [volume] (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1834-1955, 1891-05-22

In forging the shoe to fit the foot, be care
full that the shoe is fitted to and follows the
circumference of the foot clear round to the
heels; the heels of the shoe should not be
extended back straight and outside of the
walls at the heels of the horses foot, as is
frequently done. Care must be used that
the shoe is not fitted too small, the outside
surface of the wall being then rasped down
to make the foot short to suit the shoe, as
often happens The hot shoe must not be
applied to the horses foot under any cir
cumstances. Make the upper of foot sur
face of the shoe perfectly fiat, so as to give
a level bearing A shoe with a concave
ground surface should be used.

OIeOnnargnrinc.

The governments efforts to tax oleOmar-
garine into disuse have not proved very sue
cessful. Revenue from stamp sales has
steadily increased since the law went into
effect, and during the ten months ended
with April more stamps We're sold than for
any previous twelve months Evidently the
product has legitimate place in the mar
ket and is not at all dependent upon mask
ing as butter to win way. But the state
should continue to insist that it be sold for
what it really .-SprihafeId Republican,.

Through the Weary Hours

OF many night, made doubly long by its pro-
tracted agony, the rheumatic sufferer losses TO
that rest which only comes by fits and starts
His maady is one which ordinary medicines too
often fail To relieve, but there is ample evidence
to prove that the efficient blood depurent, Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, affords the rheumatic a
reliable means of relief. Check the malady in its
incipient stages, when the first premonltory
twinges come on, with this agreeable medicine,
and avoid years of torture. Whatever be the
rationale of the active influence of the Btters
upon this malady, certain 1t is that no evidence
relating to its effect is more direct and positive
than that which relates to its action in cases of
rheumatism. Like all sterling remedies, however
it deserves protracted, systematic trial, and
edial 1t is equally eficacious in dyspepsia, indi
gestion and Kindred diseases.

The Lamp.

Stepping leopard-lke and quick,
Long-limbed, with furtivc grace
can see the ivory brow;
See the gold bronze Of the face
Burn with joy, know not how;
See beneath the scarf the hair,
Black as midnight, fragrant thick,
Falling all about her there
And as fire bursts from char,
Each eye kiudlc i star
When her long lost lamp bring
There's such magic in the thing
From her ashes scattered far.
From her thousand years away.
She comes back to me to lay.
