Care of tho stallion.

REST end fat are the greatest enemies
of the horse,' is a saying of the Arabs,
and if every stallion owner would en-
body it's truth in his practice there would
be little need to write anything further
on this subject. It's observance would
be potent to improve the horse in health,
strength, virility, endurance and lon
gevity, and by ''hOiding up the glass to
nature" correct the irrational treatment
and abnormal conditions under which he
is often reared. Not that the conditions
surrounding the horse in state of ma
ture should be wholly initiated, for they
do not all tend to his Improvement in the
qualities adapted to mans use.
But it is worthy of note that the wild
horse is tough, sound and healthy, and
making due allowance for the influence
of natural selection or the survival of the
fittest, when we observe that he is sell
dom in state of rest, that he lives I'M
confined in the open air, upon natural
food, we may reasonably connect these
as cause and effect, and safely consider
exercise, pure air and simple diet the
fundamental conditions upon which to

Rural and stockman Suggestions
Give the hogs a chance to get at rock
salt. Put it in the pasture. They 4 e it.
GA good many farm horses are injured
and some are ruined by improper feed
ing" S; S an exchange. We should say
so.
Horses ought not to be allowed to eat
too much hay. 1t is too bulky.
Many horse is injured by eating too
much hay.
Animals sometimes are affected with
insanity. We have seen horses that we
had no doubt were as ''crazy as bed
bugs"
A stallion Or bull may be ever so gen
tie, as long as we have known him, and
yet it is always wise to keep an eye on
the animal.
If the breeding animal-sow or boar
| does not prove a success, a pedigree as
| long as the moral law will not atone for
| the failure.
If we persist in feeding musty hay to
! horses We ought to be under no necessity
| OF asking what causes the heaves when
they appear.
| If we would all resist the temptation
| of overstocking when the prices for
this or that class of animals is high,
what great blessing it would be to all

SpIendor OF Attire Sported by Opulent
gFGG OrientaIs-Pec u!iarities of Gowns
The magnificence and splendor of
the attire in which opulent Orientals
are wont to array themselves has for
ages been a fruitful theme for the
prose writer as well as the poet In
the extravaganza of fable garments
are often mentioned as worn by East
ern mOnarchs and princes of such rich
stuffs and so bedecked with priceless
gems that their value would purchase
an empire However incredible these
tales may appear it is nevertheless a
characteristic Of Orientals that they
prefer to convert the greater part of
their wealth into wearing apparel, by
which they seemingly aim to inspire
feeling of awe and admiration in every
beholder.
At the close of every year, says the
San Francisco Chronicle the Mon
golian religiously casts away the gar
nerts worn during the previous twelve
months and clads himself in a complete
new attire. The garments worn by
the poorer or lower classes of Chinese
are comparatively inexpensive. The
outfit usually worn consists of a blouse.

COnkling Died of the Grip.

Beyond a doubt" says a leading
physician, Roscoe Conkling died OF
the grip. The abscess which formed
on the bone back of the ear and was
the immediate cause of his death is
one of the common symptoms of re-
suits of the grip My wife, who was
taken i'll a few weeks ago with the
grip, began to get better, but one day
she complained of a severe pain back
of the ear. 1t increased and | hal a
specialist examine it. He made an
incision and found an abscess forming.
If it had been let alone it would have
penetrated to her brain and killed her.
The doctor told me that he had per-
formed over 400 similar operations
during the winter, all OF them due to
grip There was very little danger
if taken in time. Mr.. Conkling could
have been saved if the doctors had
known as much about the grip then
as they do now"
