JUMPING HORSES.

The most effective cure for a Jump
ing horse is n good fence. Low or
weak fences arc the cause of this
trouble. II q fence 10 made of ten
heavy rails with one OH top stout
enough to hold the animal, and staked
so that it cannot bo pushed OFF, no
horse but professional jumper will
go over or through it. Jumping
horses have been cured of the bad
habit by inclosing them with such a
fence until they have found trying to
get over it useless, and havo after
ward been quiet inside of fence that
they could have easily jumped over
previously. A poke is unsightly and
mostly useless and dangerous. while a
barbed-wire fence is means OF
simply inviting tho loss of horse.
IL any kind of wire fence Is used for
horses 1t should have alternate boards
with the wires and heavy board on
top. A "horse-high" fence is not
less than six feet. 1t is great pro-
lection to fence to plow deep fur
row inside of it so as to throw the
horses feet in II when in tho act OF
jumping. This is equal to raising the
fence two feet, If properly placed,
which is about two feet from the
bottom of the fence. Another effec-
tive and safe protection is a smooth,
twisted band wire, stretched on the
top Of the fence one foot above, or, il
q rail fence, along the middle of 1t, 50
as to prevent the horse from rising to
the jump.-[New York Times.

PouLrRY FOR ORCMARDs.

While 1t Is an undisputcd fact that
an orchard is one of the best places In
which TO establish poultry yard, We
have found poultry to be excellent for
fruit trees. We have sixteen Shockley
apple trees, now seven years old,
standing in and around our poultry
yards. Some of these standing direct
ly in the run Of the fowls, have had as
many apples as any five of the trees
on the outside. This is conclusive
evidence that the one is beneficial to
the other. The chickens destroy all
bugs and other insects that prey upon
the trees and fruit; at tho same time
they keep down all grass and weeds,
AMI keep the surface Of the ground
scratched up aud in mellow condi-
tiou, thus promoting tho health and
vigor of the trees. Some have been
literally hanging with nice apples, and
so heavily laden that we wcro COM
pelled to keep tho limbs we'll propped
TO keep them from breaking down.
Shade Is one of the indispensables
about poultry establishment during
the summer months, and It is certainly
better and more profitable to have
some variety of fruit. We, at the
same time, get the needed shade, while
we get a bountiful supply of delicious
fruit, if of the right kind. We would
certainly advise all to have orchards
for poultry and poultry for orchards,

Fishes That BniiI Nests.

"Oue of the queercst fishes in the
world is thc.s gouramis,'" said all
ichthyologist to reporter. at is ma
tive to the fresh waters of Cochin
Chiua. farther India, Java, Sumatra
and Borneo. Specimens have been
known TO attain length of six feet
and weight Of ll0 pounds The
flesh is so delicious that efforts have
been made TO acclimatize the creature
IN many other countries, but thus far
these attempts have been successful
only on the island of Mauritius.
About 80 Of them were imported into
the island of Cuba aud planted in
ponds some years ago, but, although
they grew and we're healthy they did
not breed. Accordingly. after a
while, the prospects for propagating
the species bncame so hopeless that the
governor had them served up one by
one upon his table upon state occa-
sions. The same difficulty has been
met with elsewhere.
"The 'gouramis' are chiefly remark
able for the fact that they build nests
like birds. At the breeding season they
pair oil, each couple selecting spot
among watcr-plants and forming n
nearly spherical nest. composed Of n
peculiar kind of floating weed, which
grows in tufts on the surface of the
ponds and plasered with mud, The
nest Is usually about six inches in di-
ameter, its construction occupying the
fishes for five or six days. Where
they are propagatcd their task is made
easier by placing in the water
branches of bamboo, to which punches
of the grass referred to are attacked.
The gouramis take this grass and with
1t make their nest in tho Submerged
branches of bamboo. When it is fin
ished tie female deposits her eggs in
it TO the number of from 800 to 1000.
"While the eggs are undergoing the
process of incubation tho parents
guard the nest watchfuliy, rushing
iiercely ut any intruder, and this care
for the safety of their young is con-
tinued after the latter are hatched.
During infancy the Young ones fiud
refuge in the nest from a thousand
dangers which would otherwise
threaten them. and the grass compos-
ing the nest furnishes them with their
earliest food. When they arc few
days old the small fry begin to make
short excursions from the nest, always
iu charge of their parents and swim
ming together in shoal. This ia
continued until they are able to look
out for themselves. ."-CWashington
