Light horses Of 1000 pounds weight,
with well shaped upright feet, should
have fore shoes weighing about one
pound each and the hind ones 10 ounces,
according TO The American Agriculturist,
which makes the following computation:
If four ounces are added to each shoe,
let us see what difference it will make.
In blowing, cultivating and many other
farm operations horse viii walk from
10 to 20 miles day and advances about
four feet at step. At each step the
horse lifts half pound extra on its two
feet, or 666 pounds in every mile. In a
days work of 10 miles the horse would
life 1900 pounds extra, or nearly five
tons. If the force required to lift this
five tons of iron could be expended in the
work the horse is doing. much more
could be accomplished. In the light of
these facts is it any wonder that when
young horses begin to wear shoes they
soon become leg weary, have their step
shortened and acquire slow walking
gait?

CESSATION of tho Mare,

AS a matter of fact, mares vary a great
deal in this particular, but they are much
more likely to go over than under II
months. and $40 days may safely be
taken as the average period. Eleven
months and one week, in round num-
bers, would be easily computed and is
very nearly correct. But there are many,
very many, cases where the period of
CESSATION is well on to ~ months.
In view of this uncertainty, or rather
irregularity, mares ought to be watched
carefully as they approach the / / months
period, so that the mare may have rea.
sonably good chance of saving the foal
The signs of approaching parturition
are not easily mistaken by an expert
enced observer. The filling up of the
udder cannot be depended upon, but the
filling up of the teats clear to the very
tips, and the dropping off of the little
mass of wax or gum that usually forms
on the ends of the teats q week or more
before foaling is good indication that
parturition is near at hand. Another al
most infallible indication is the falling
or shrinking away of the muscles on the
top of the buttocks at a point near the
center of q line from the root of the tail
to the point of the hip bone.
BY all means don't permit the mare to
be kept tied up by the head in her stall
when you have reason to think her time
is near at hand. If the weather is at all
favorable, let her have a good, large lot.
If this from any cause is not practical
Bile, let her have large box stall, from
which everything must be removed that
would be liable to entangle or injure the
foal in its efforts to get up, and be care
full to see that there are no holes under
the manger or elsewhere into which the
foal may force itself. 1t is decidedly
better to allow the mare to occupy the
stall or lot in which she is to foal week
or so beforehand, SO that she may be-
come accustomed to it. They are decid-
edly averse to new quarters, and also to
close confinement at such times. An
ounce of prevention is worth pound of
cure, and little extra precaution at
this time will often save the life of q
valuable foal.--Cor. Breeders Gazette.

Chemical Dehorner.

DR.. Salmon, the head of the United
States government bureau Of animal in
dustry, gives this as the chemical de-
horner" used in his experiments: A mix
ture is prepared by taking 80 parts OF
caustic soda, 25 parts of kerosene oil and
25 parts of water. An emulsion is made
of the kerosene oil and soda by heating
and vigorously stirring, and this is then
dissolved in water. The mixture is then
placed in q bottle with solid rubber
cork. This cork is TO rub the mixture
in when few drops are applied to the
end of thecoming horn of the calf. which
should not be more than three weeks
old. 1t is strong stuff and should be
carefully confined to these points.

If your shears squeak or bind while
you are using them, run your finger
thoughtfully down the side of your nose
and rub it over the inside Of the blades,
and the scissors will generally work as
easily and noiselessly as any one could
desire. There is always little oil col
lected IN the corners on the outside OF
ones nostrils, and those who know it
can "oil up" squeaky shears without
trouble or without fear of making the
scissors greasy. Another simple way TO
accomplish the same end is to draw the
blades of the shears over the hair, ON
which. when 1t is healthy, there ia al

LONDON, June 12.-The great congress
OF firemen of the world began here
today with representation from al
most every civilized nation on the face OF
the globe. The tournament is under the
auspices OF the National Fire Brigade
union, otwhich the president is Sir Eyre
M. Shaw, K. Q. B., ex-chief of the Lon
don Metropolitan fire brigade; the district
president the Right Honorable Lord VOL
verton and Sir John III. Puleston. The
chairman is Liutenant- Colonel Seabrooke,
chief officer of the Rugby fire brigade.
One of the mast valuable departments of
the union is the Widows and Orphans
fund. the patrons of which are his grace,
the Duke of Rutland, K. c. B. right hon.
Earl of Dartmouth and Viscount Curzon,
M. p, and the trustees the Marquis of
Breadalbane, the Earl of Denbeigh and
the right hon. Lord Wolverton.
The United States must rest its hopes
for national distinction not upon it's
metropolis, but upon Kansas city, which
alone has sent a regular team. The fire
department of New York, however, will
have worthy representative in the per-

in Europe and will go to London in time

lgress. Boston is sending Fire

Tor the congress. Boston is sending Fire
Commissioner John r. Murphy, but no
apparatus nor any member of the rank
and file. While mentioning the foreign
visitors to the London congress it is note
worthy that Major Paxin, a prominent
member of the st. Petersburg fire depart
ment has accepted an invitation to be
present.
France is represented by full team
who bring along their engines and other
apparatus, just on the same principle as
that adopted by the Kansas City delega-
ton, for the Frenchmen are bent upon
unfolding their reputation before all
corners.
The honors of the American delegation
are quite easily borne by Kansas City,
whose citizens have displayed an amount
of enterprise fairly emitting them to the
distinction. 1t may cheer the Missouri
fremen to know that their efforts stand
an excellent chance of adequate reward,
as they bring horses with them, and the
Havre last year was largely due to their
having been the only visitors who made
horses feature OF their outfit. The AL
dershot brigade possesses a remarkably
fine roam team capable of unusually good
work.
The Kansas delegation is IN charge OF
Chief George Q. Hale, and its programme
includes all the difficult feates in which
firemen are trained. The team is COM
posed of picked men, whose eyes are sure
and whose nerves are steady as steel
wires. They are among the best in the
fire lighting business and will achieve
wonders to make their hosts open their
eyes In amaZemlent. Few men are better
