pIscard cine Use OF one Whlp.

It is a noticeable fact that the
most successful drivers of Jrotting
horses seldom use the whip. Even
when hard fought races are on and
sensational finishes are made the ex-
treme limit OF speed is secured with
out the use OF the lash. There is a
lesson in this, not only for the drivers
Of trotting horses, but for those who
handle any kind of horses With the
proper training a draft horse will
reach the limit Of his power and ex-
ert every muscle In his body under
kind treatment as quickly as he will
when abused with the whip. A horse
that will respond to the request for
his best effort in kind way is one
that can be depended upon under
any and all circumstances. 1t Is tn e
fault of the driver in nine cases out
OF ten when the use of the whip is
made necessary. When horsemen
once understand that kind words are
worth more TO urge horse to his full
capacity in any direction the use Of
the whip will be very limited. =

Az the evidence OF the earth's crust
proves that our globe has lasted for In
calculable ages, IL becomes Of interest
70 think how far the gradual eiongatlon
of the day may have attained bignifl-
cant proportions since veiy early times
It may be that even In thousand years
the effect OF the tides Is not sufficient to
alter the length OF day by so much as
single second. But the effect may be
very appreciable or even large In mill
ion years, or ten million years, or a
hundred million years. We have the
best reasons for knowing that In inter-
walls OF time comparable with those
have mentioned the change In the length
OF the day may have amounted not
merely 10 seconds or minutes but even
10 hours. Looking into the remote past,
there was a time at which this globe
spun around In twenty-three hours, In
stead OF twenty-four; at still earlier
period the rate must have been twenty
hours, and the further we look back the
more and more rapidly does the earth APP
pear to be spinning. Atlast as we strain
our gaze to some epoch so excessively
remote that 1t appears to have been an
terror to those changes which geology
recognizes, we see tEat our globe was
spinning round In period OF six hours,
or five hours, or possibly even less.
Here then is a lesson which the tides
have taught us; they have shown that
II the causes at present In operation
have subsisted without interruption for
a sufficiently long period in the past, the
day must have gradually grown to Its
present length from an initial condition
In which the earth seems to have spun
around four times as quickly as 1t does
at present.-Good Words.

Good for Chickens and Hogs.

Four years ago Joseph Mativln, who
has farm near Stanwood, Wash, dis
covered a peculiar head of grain in a
field OF barley. Since then he has been
propagating 1t, until now he has consid-
cradle land sown to this strange grain,
which yields about 100 bushels to the
acre. The grain is OF deep brown
color, resembling scorched wheat grain,
and Is similar to wheat In form. The
bran or shell Is thin and tough. The
grain is not fit for milling purposes, and
brewer who examined it said that 1t
was useless for brewing purposes. II
makes, however, excellent feed for
chickens and hogs.

A SHOEMAKER says: AS soon as a

a good walker, and it Is astonishing TO

at the heel, not on the side, but straight
back, and the leather of the sole shows
signs OF weakness at the ball Of the
foot. little greater on the inside just

however, the heel is turned on one side,
or is worn evenly throughout, and the
sole is worn most near the toe, know

trian. The reason of the difference in
position OF the worn spot lies in the fact
that the poor walker walks from his

half as much as any good hay. Hence,
instead of wasting the straw by build
ing fiat topped stacks and allowing
the cattle and other stock to have
free access to them. yard Is built
around the stacks, and the straw fed
out as regularly as hay or grain. To
make all secure. a log pen is built,
like the one in the illustration from
a sketch 10y l.. ID. Shook, in the
American Agriculturist The logs
rest upon foundation OF stone or
wood, the lower log being one foot
from the ground, and three logs on
each side, the extreme height of
fence being not less than four and a
half feet. On the leeward side OF
the stack pen permanent and dur
able manger can be easily made from
small poles. This may extend the
entire length Of the pen, and he built
upon one or more sides. The straw
is thrown into it directly from the
stack, and, il ration of hay of straw
be fed at noon, it will prove equally
as valuable, the only objection being
that it is located out Of doors. How
ever it is more convenint and eco
nomical than to throw the food upon
the ground or in the nearest fence
corner.
