AT LEXINGTON.

LEXINGTON, KY, Oct. 19.-Beautitul
weather, a good attendance and fasU track
put all In a good humor here to-day. The
races were very exciting, and several
things occurred to make the crowd very en-
thuslastic at times. In the unfinished race
Prince Herschel proved himself an easy
winner. Goldsmith was given $50 for
driving Pearl MoGregor and Burt. who
drove the mare yesterday in the first
two heats, was suspended for thirty days
for alleged crooked driving.
In dash of one and one-sixteenth miles
McCalPs driving Of Dandy aroused the sus-
picion of the judges. Cetharine Ley
burn won the heat, but it
was declared by the judges to
be no race and all bets off. On the second
heat Mccall was taken down and Bower
man put up in his stead. He took Dandy
to the front and won the dash in a
jog. Mccall was suspended indefinitely and
Bowerman was allowed 500 for driving the
heat. Guy in the last heat lowered the
track record here by half a second, going
mile in BOSE the record for the Lexington
track being 2:0914.
In the third race Vogel, the driver of
Broomal, was suspended from all assooia-
tion tracks. Broomal finished first, but was
placed last by the judges.
Following is a summary:

THE CARE OF HORSES.
Some Hints as to the Food and the
Quantities of 1t.

Some Hints as to the Food and the
Quantities of 1t.
A horse has afsmall stomach and active
digestion. The food. therefore, should be
of the highest nutritive quality, with as
little waste matter ~ may be. It should be
a. easily diReatible as possible. Whole
corn and cob is not such a food. and on
general principles is not to be considered
either healthful or profitable. The feeding
value of e food. as estimated by its chemi-
cal constituents, is not n safe guide. Us the
cob, while not without some seeming nutri-
tious quality, ia hardly digestible, and in
this respect has about the value of woody
fibre in tho form OF suwdust. In the OK
p%eriencs Of horsemen the cob has been sus-
pected Of dangerous qualities and as FRO
in any way a food that can unde, special
exigencies of the season BIO considered
either useful, safe or economical. But corn
is an excellent food for a horss under cor
tain ciroumstances II IS a concentrated
food. It has large proportion of carbo-
and is suitably deficient in the albuminoids
that are wanted by an animal that il resi-
ing. Again, the starchy character is such
that when in the form Of meal it is masti-
Gated, it becomes a plastic aud solid mass
that is readily attacked by the gastio fluid,
liz ID bllu5 HOb EASILY ulkoSIou dNu lb likely
to produce an attack of collie: which, while
it may not be dangerous, vet takes up SO
much OF the reserved forcs of the animal
as to cause a loss of food. The corn thon
should be c%oarsoly ground. Il if Ted with
cut hay will be still moro safe md profita-
BILE to feed. A horse Of 1000 pounds needs.
in addition to fifteen pounds of good tim
othy hay, not more than ten pounds of corn
coarsely ground. and this allowance Of grain
may be considered as equal to 80 per cent
more Of whole grain. This supplies about
twenty pounds of dry substance, contain
ing of dipestibls matters fourteen pounds
carbohydrates, q pound and three.quarters
of albuminoida and half a pound Of fat,
which is ample for a horse of that weight,
and even for ono of 1000 pounds, kept in a
warm stable without work, bnt having suf-
ficient exercise to keep tho blood stirring
and maintain u healthful consumption of
food. A stable may be warm and yet we'll
supplied with fresh air. A sufficient supply
of oxygen is Indispensable for the proper
change of the carbohydrates of the food
into heat. In a close, warm. impure Mt
mosphere loaded with cnrbonic acid this
oxidation cannot go on. and the animal be-
comes ~listless and sleepy, aud the food ia
wasted. Therefore ample ventilation must
be provided. and a temperature of not less
than forty degrees will be far better for the
horse than one Of sixty with less fresh air.
So long az the stable does not freeze the
temperature will be snfe.-Exchange.

OBITUARY.

Nancy V. Swina departed this
life, Feb. II, 1892. She leaves
three brothers, two sisters and
seven children to mourn for her.
She lived life that will long
be remembered by those who
knew her. 1t has been the
pleasure of the writer to know
her for twelve years, and he
never heard her complain at life's
troubles or saw her angry. She
did not live for herself, but for
others. Her brothers and sisters
and children, except two, are pre-
pared to meet her on the other
shore. The last words the writer
heard her say were 81 want to go
home to see little Ebey," who was
her grandchild. She did not MUIR
muir, but said to those who stood
by her, "do not bother me, | am
sleeping" We can say with the
poet, BLESSED sleep from which
none ever wake to weep"
She toiled for many weary
year to provide for those she
loved. She was known far and
wide as "Aunt Nancy" The
writer who has the pleasure of be-
ing the husband of her baby child
can say there are but few Aunt
Nancys like her. In sickness
she was there to soothe pains
and cool the fevered brow. Bdt
she has gone where there is no
sickness nor sorrow. Oh, can il
be that mother is gone to be- here
no more with us, that her body
lies in the silent tomb TO mouldel
back to dust! Yes, but her happy
spirit has gone to the God she sc
dearly loved, and sits aroun(
Gods shining throne in blessed
courts above.
But now her suffering is all DER
And silently she sleeps in death;
We hear that suffering moan no more
Nor see her pant for breath.
Oh. how we mourn her company,
With tears We view that vacant chair,
And sadly gaze around the room,
But our darling mother is not there.
But on that shining shore
Where all is life and love
We'll meet where parting will be DER,
In that happy hume above.
Farewell Mother dear,
Vel miss thee in our home.
But may we live to meet with thee
When Jesus bids us come.
G. W. WILKINS.
