HORSE NOTES.

The year is nearly gone and the statis-
ticians OF the turf are already at work,
figuring up the results Of poor, old, tot
tering '93. The trotting statisticians are
figuring how many horses each sire got
into the Q 80 list, while those who deal
with running horse figures are comput-
ing how much money the get of each
stallion has won, and ranking the sires
accordingly. 1t will have to come to q
similar condition of things with the
trotters and PAGERS before the world is
five years older. My own idea has al
ways been that horse should alway be
judged by the number of races his
progeny have won; and that wss the
old-fashioned way OF considering the
proposition, in the days when our turf
men wore.rufiled shirts and the horses
contended at tour-mile heats. But with
the introduction of modern English sys-
TENS OF racing at fractional distances,
we have also adopted the English way
of computing q stations Importance,
through the moneys won by his pro-
geny.

and working horses and cattle and sheep
as well. Therefore what is appropriate
elsewhere might be most egregiously
out of place here. On two or three
occasions l have criticised the manage

ways in spirit OF csndor and honesty.
The right to applaud always carries
with 1t the right to censure; and in tie
present instance there is no censuring to
be done. They were confronted with
very bad year and got out OF it in very
good shape.

It has got to come that way IN the
matter of trotting and pacing, as sure as
you are foot high. The day of watch
breakers has about gone by and, in five
years hence. you won't be able to get 20
people to one of those so-called record
meetings or to race on kite-shaped
track. People want to 60 where they
can witness race without carrying q
field glass to watch horses coming
through 700-yard stretch and for that
purpose there is nothing like the old,
regulation track, with 440 yards in each
turn and each stretch. The tremendous
competition engendered by the 2:30 list
test has cut down the fees of trotting
stations until the only ones that can
command over 500 as service fee will
be the sires that get winners of races.
Some horses there be to whom the turf
historian has never yet done justice in
this respect; and chief among these is

Cut The Leg Off,

Ny son was afflicted for over a year
with very serious sore on his leg
which was caused by a bruise and tax
ing cold. The sore extended from the
knee to the ankle, and the flesh had de-
cayed to the bone, and even the bone
was largely decomposed. Four differ
ent physicians had told me the only
way to save the boys life was by ampu-
tating the leg, which, of course, I was
seriously opposed to if it were possible
to save it. We took him to st. Mary s
Hospital in this city, where he was
treated about three months; they
scraped the bone thoroughly and we
hoped for better results. Finally we
were recommended by our physician to
try Septicide. The first thing that we
noticed after applying it was that the
offensive odor was gone, and all the in
famation was subdued, giving the sore
a much healthier appearance. 1t COM
menced healing at once and now the leg
is perfectly cured.

place in which to escape for long

You will notice that Langlade is

one chance.
It will be we'll for all improve
ment and boom societies in these
counties to take notice of these
figures and give a prominent place
in their advertising matter that no
undertakers are wanted as they
would starve to death in such
healthy places. But the following
counties are not SO free from visits
from the dread angel of death and
in our journeying about we pro-
pose to give these counties a wide
berth, for perhaps the old fellow
might carry one off suddenly if he
should discover him in his own
chosen territory:

1t will be seen that Milwaukee is
by far the most dangerous portion
of the state, and we would advise
our Democratic friends to move
their political headquarters to a
more healthy location or they may
very soon be as dead as the Re
publican party is supposed to be
at the present.
Some may think it a wicked
thing to joke at death, but we al
ways thought it as we'll to laugh
as to cry, and if we can do a good
turn to our fellow men either
by booming very healthy section
of country or by calling their
attention to the manner in which
our state officers gather and send
out statistics that ought to make
them the laughing stock of all
men, we shall be satisfied with our
efforts. Why should the money
you are required to pay to run
the state government be paid out
to publish and send over the state
such valuable q statistics as these.

WOOD COUNTY is HEALTHY.

In looking over appendix NJ.
pages 27S and 27o Of the report OF
the Secretary of State, we find that
Wood county is a very healthy
place to live in if we can believe
Democratic figures and as we said
in a previous article Figures can
not lie especially if they are Demo
cratic figures"
The appendix M. is entitled
"Abstract of Marriages, Births,
and Deaths" and is for the years
1890 and 1891. We have been
doing little figuring to see what
part of the state is the healthiest,
or in other words which counties
have the least deaths per 1000
population. And by looking up
the 1890 census we find that there
are several counties that are very
much preferable for any one to
live in, if they wish to stand a
good chance to live to a good old
age. And we are very much
pleased to find Wood county
among the five best counties in the
state in this respect, and we hope
that every one who wishes to
boom the county will remember
that we stand a chance to live
thirty-four times as long as we
would if we lived in that wicked
county of Milwaukee. We would
advise all of the people of Mil
waukee to move away from such
a place and either come to Wood
county Or to some of the other
counties where it is so healthy
that people hardly ever die. The
following is the figures as taken
from the report for 1890 and COM
pared with the census report of the
population for the several counties
