ed much more easily, While they
will enjoy their nights rest much
better, il they can be carefully
cleaned when they are first brought
to the stables. To do this in the
best manner good foot tubs for
washing the feet and legs are nee
essary. A supply Of old rags that
are good for nothing else should al
so be on hand, and when the horses
come in at night their feet and legs
can be carefully washed and dried.
If this work is done while the dirt
is soft, it will be much easier than
if delayed until the next morning
when it will have become dry and
hard. A good supply of curry
combs and brushes with which to
cleanse the hair and skin are essen
tial. A large quantity of waste
matter is thrown off through the
pores of the skin and if these are
allowed to become closed up, the
health of the animal is affected.
Good bedding, properly supplied,
adds much to the comfort of the
horses and at the same time aids in
keeping them clean. So is an inn
portant item to have all of the bed
ding dry. 1t will be best to lay in
supply and store it under shelter
so as to have it on hand when
needed. Good managers for feeding
hay, and tight, convenient boxes
for feeding grain will lessen the
waste.
Closets should be arranged in
which to hang the harness as hav-
ing it behind the horses in the sta
bles is, to say the least, very injur-
ious. In arranging these closets
care should always be taken to have
them near by in order to save time.
AS the feeding must be done two or
three times daily, and as on many
farms the horses are harnessed once
or twice every day, convenience in
the arrangements is an important
item. Every horse should have its
place, with halter and conven-
lent place to tie to. Making the
horses comfortable will lessen ma
terially the quantity of feed neces-
sary to keep them in good condition.

A TEMPTING OFFER.

To induce people to keep track of their bright
ideas and see what there is in them. the Pres
Claims Company has resolved TO offer prize.
To the person who submits to it
the simplest and most promising
invention, from a commercial point
Of view, the company will give
twenty five hundred dollars, cash ,
in addition to retunding the fees
for securing the patent.
It will also advertise the inven-
ton free Of charge.
This offer is subje to the following eondt-
ions:
Every competitor must obtain patent for
his invention through the company. He must
first apply for preliminary scar h. the cost OF
which will be five dollars should this search
show his invention TO be unpatentable, he can
withdraw without further expense. Otherwise
he will be expected to complete his applis alton
and take out patent in the regular way. The
reau fees, viii be seventy dollars. For this,
whether he secures the prize or not the invent

advantage is to be rewarded for doing It, The
prize Is only stimulus TO do something that
would be well worth doing without it. The

Comparatively few people regard themselves
as inventors, but almost everyb body has been
struck, at one time or another, with ideas that
eemed a culated to reduce some of the little

"A man CtUeS IlOI ISGu u very WIUC
acquaintance with the condition Of
the live stock industry of this coun-
try to know that great many in
ferior builsare being used for breed
ing purposes. Neither does he need
to be remarkably well versed in the
principles which underlie success in
the live, stock business to know that
these bulls are very poor animals
from which to breed. If he has
had experience or observation along
this line he must be aware not only
that the creatures themselves are in
ferior, but also that they will place
the stamp of inferiority upon their
offspring.
AS long as these inferior animals
are kept for breeding, a better class
of bulls will be crowded out. Not
only this, but the defective bulls
will bring out and intensity the in
feriority of a good deal OF the dairy
stock OF the region in which they
are kept. Many pretty fair cows,
which would produce good calves if
they were served by valuable bull,
will bring forth only a low grade of
milking stock if served by one of
these inferior animals. Under like
conditions the poorer class of cows
will bring forth calves which are in
ferior even to themselves. With
this method Of breeding stock that
is now fair will soon be reduced to
a lower grade, and that which is al
ready inferior will become positively
bad. Nothing but evil, and evil
which will not be merely perpetual
ed, but intensified, as time goes on,
can come from allowing cows to be
served by inferior bulls.
The inferiority of the low class
bulls is due to one of two causes,
neither of which should be allowed
to exist. These animals were either
inferior in character or condition
when they were calves, or else they
have been reduced to inferiority by
neglect or by improper feeding.
Some were from poor stock and
should have been sent to the butcher
as soon as they could be made fit
for veal. Others were small, or
weak, or were so deficient in good
qualities as to be wholly unfit to
keep for breeding purposes, And
there a great many that were prom
Using calves and would have made
pretty fair animals if they had been
literally fed and properly cared for.
A good many bull calves will be
raised the coming Fall. Some
farmers will be tempted to save
low grade of stock. They should
remember that there are already too
many inferior bulls which are doing
not merely service but mischief in
our herds. 1t will be greatly for
their interest to decline to add to
the number of these low class ami
mails. Really good bulls are need
ed, and many of the calves which
give fair promise of answering this
description when they reach ma
turity should be raised. From the
beginning of their lives they should
receive the best of food and care,
and an effort should be made to fully
develop all the good qualities which
they possess, and bring the animals
to the highest standard of excellence
which it is possible for them to at

NOT SO HARD A. 1T SEEMS.

A patent strikes person as an appallingly
formidable thing. The idea is that an inventor
must be natural genius. like Edison or Bell;
that he must devote years to delving in compli-
Gated mechanical problems. and that he must
spend fortune on delicate experiments before
he can get n new device to patentable degree
OF perfection. This delusion the company de-
sires to dspel II desires to get into the head
OF the public clear comprehension of the .aet
that it is not the great complex, and expensive
inventions that bring the best returns to their
authors. but the little. simple and cheap ones
the things that seem so absurdly trivial that
the average citizen would feel somewhat
ashamed of bringing them to the attention Of
the Patent Office.
Edison saws that the profits be has received
from the patents on all his marvellous invent
ions have not been sufficient to pay the cost Of
his experiments. But the man who conceived
the idea of fastening bit OF rubber cord to a

Possessing an analytical mind of the
ablest order, he ranked high as pathol-
ogist, and in his diagnosis of disease and
its complications. DR.. Seymour was
generally in advance of the medical liter
ature of his day. Fifteen years ago his
ideas as to diphtheria and pneumonia
and other blood poisoning diseases were
deemed radical by others of his profes-
sion; but he lived to see his views as to
the character of these maladies become
generally accepted.
Having a cultivated mind he drew
around us friends and associates men of
education and mental culture, and it
was in the society of such persons that
DR.. Seymour appeared to advantage, and
wherein he seemed to best enjoy life.
He hated shams, but he respected merit
wherever existing. He was in all things
true to his convictions, and he spared no.
body in his denunciatiOn of what he
deemed to be wrongful or unjust.
Tramps and beggars caused him to give
literally at every trumped up tale of
want or suffering, and he had as many
loving friends among the poor as the at
fluent.

noon of this week from the residence of

pressed wish of the deceased the remains

RUTLAND PHYSICIANS BOYCOTT
TED.

A new form of boycott has just been
instituted at Rutland as a result of the
recent action of fifteen OF sixteen of the
physicians of that city in advancing theil
schedule of rates for their services. Ii
seems that these followers of Esculapius
signed an agreement to place their fees
at $3.50 to 81 for ordinary visits, 81 foI
Office visits, So for night calls, So foI
consultation visits, and other services in
proportion.
This action on the part of the doctors
excited the indignation of a large por.
ton of the poorer classes in the new city
and at meeting of the central trades
and labor council resolutions of the most
pronounced nature were adopted. The
preamble states that the working people
of Rutland and vicinity condemn the
action of the doctors, who are named
for usurpIng the hard earned wages OF
the poor, and tits therefore resolved that
I'VE will patronize those charging the
nominal price"
1t will be noticed that the effect OF
this action on the part of the Trades
and Labor council is boycott of the
doctors who have agreed to increase
their fees; although those who passed
the resolution do not say that they will
not patronize the physicians named
This being the case the question arises
whether or not the members of the
council have not etfectually avoided {

MIX THEM. BY ALI, MEANS

Many interesting stories have been
told about that favorits son of the South,
Henry W. Grady. One that was heard
few evenings ago at an assemblage
largely made up of Presbyterian clergy
men, shows that his colored coachman.
who has not appeared prominently be-
fore the American public, was well
worthy to be in the service of such a
master.
The Rev. DR., Henry NJ. Field was the
relatOr of the incident DR.. Field was
visiting Atlanta, and, of course, met Mr..
Grady. Mr.. Grady placed his carriage
at DR.. Fields disposal, and after driving
about the city, on being left at Mr.. Ora
dy's Office, DR.. Field rewarded the coach
man with a big silver dollar. Later in
the day Mr.. Grady remarked to DR..
Field that his coachman had told him of
the tip and at the same time had said
that certain Baptist clergyman whom
he had driven about the city a short
time before as Mr.. Gradys guest had at
the end of the ride rewarded him with
his blessing, saying he could give no
other reward. Mr.. Grady asked which
he preferred, the dollar or the blessing,
and the cOachman, scratching his head,
replied that both were good, and that he
thought he preferred them mixed.

great reason is that they do not and can

ical parties come and go but Vermonters
continue right on receiving distinguished
honors in "A manner that naturally ap-
peals to the State pride of all loyal sons
of Vermont. The latest illustration of
this tendency is furnished by the case of
Judge William Lochren of Minneapolis,
Mimi, who was nominated by President
Cleveland to be commissioner of pen
sions. Judge Lochren is a native of
Vermont and he was admitted TO prac-
tice at the Franklin county bar, having
studied law In the office of Smalley and
Adams at st. Adams. He went west just
prior to the rebellion, soon after the be-
ginning of which he volunteered his SER

ervation of the Union. He was good
soldier and was promoted captain for
gallantry upon tue field.
After the war Capt. Lochren settled at
Minneapolis and began the practice of
his profession, meeting with marked
success. He has long been regarded as
one of the ablest lawyers of Minnesota
and he took high rank as a judge. Sew
