would appear that horse will live OF

SIZE AND QUALITY UNCHANGED.
How to Buy a Horse.

No sensible man will buy horse OF
any value or one which he expects to
do good service without first
submitting it to qualified veterinary
surgeon, saws the London Live Stock
Journal. Many an unprofessional
man has good eye for horse, but
he knows little or nothing of its struc-
ture and anatomy, compared with the
trained veterinarian. Moreover, the
ameteur judge of horse is apt TO fly
to certain points where he thinks he
may detect something, and overlook
others. The veterinary surgeon, who
is examining horses almost every day,
not only brings his scientific knowledge
to bear but conducts his examination
in a systematic manner, going all over
the horse before he has done with him
If there be manifest unsoundness, it
will be discovered and pointed out,
but it is in the discovery and indica-
tion Of incipient uHsoundness that the
training and practice OF the veterina-
rian are of supreme value.

HORSE NOTES.

An occasional oiling will proven
cracks and breaks in the harness.
The day of hay-wintered colts sta
lied in the barnyard has gone by.
Take the chill from the water giver
to the brood mares in cold weather,
The proper development of the colts
is business which few understand.
In the half-bred hackney the breed
er has grand type of general-utility
horse.
One good horse means profit and
pleasure dozen ordinary ones means
loss and disappointment.
Good looks 60 long way towards
desirable price, and the greatest
source of good looks is care.
The care and keep of the colts from
infancy to selling age affect their value
more than most breeders realize.
There is large surplus of horses in
the country, but they are of the kind
horse-buyers do not want to invest in.
A perfect horse cannot be bred from
an imperfect one, or high-class one
from a mare or sire possessed of
prominent faults and imperfections,
A breeder who wishes to succeed
should breed only the best to the best,
and take care of both pedigree and in
dividuality as he proceeds.
Don't expect to have good strong
yearlings and two-year-olds when
spring comes unless you feed plenty
of clean, wholesome food during the
winter.
The man who breeds horses intelli-
gently, breaks them carefully, teaches
them thoroughly and develops their
speed will always find profit in the
business.
There is demand for thorough
bred stations for Canada. The stall
ions are required TO have plenty Of
substance and weight to cross with
Canadian mares.

Nonmagnetized watches.

1t is very seldom that watch will
be affected when worn in. an electric
car, because the electrical current
does not come in close proximity to
the wearer, or both might feel its eff
fects. Nonmagnetized watches only
could be affected. These watches,
which are largely in the majority,
are supplied with works of fine steel,
and an electric current when brought
to bear on it, finds its center of at
traction in the roller and lever or
pole of the watch. The roller is the
small steel disk which fits directly
under the balance wheel. On that
disk are two tiny posts which fit in
the ends of the pole of the watch.
The pole is the fiat piece of steel
which moves backward and forward
with the reversible motion of the
balance wheel. The pole attracts the
electric current. A magnet or load
stone held over it will give a good
illustration. Watches are manufac-
tured which are proof against such
currents. They are magnetized.
That is done by substituting com
position pole and roller. Brooklyn

him.
Doctor said the hoy. II have a
sinking feeling all over, great many
times a day
"Ever at night ?" asked the doctor
Hardly ever"
"Let me see your tongue"
The boy showed him his tongue
the doctor felt his pulse, sounded his
chest, worked a stethoscope on him,
listened to his heart-beats, and then
told him what was the matter with
him, and what to take for it.
MAYBE my business has got some
ihing to do with it, DOCTOR" suggested
the boy, as the physician stepped into
the adjoining room to get phial.
Hardly that, think" cheerily
sung out the ply stefan from the other
room.
"What is your business ?"
"Irun an elevator" responded the
lad, and before the doctor could get to
bin he had disappeared, as above stat
