Horses mt Present.,

But few farmers will readily part
with their best horses this spring.
With the dull. times however, some
have thought that it does not pay to
feed or even Craze the ordinary colt for
another year and are disposed to sell
at a sacrifice. This spirit tends only to
lower values still more. If it is the pre-
vailing sentiment in a community the
result is to cause owners to think less
of their best horses. For two years
past, interest in farm stock has declin-
ed and has it would seem, now reach
ed the lowest mark. Confidence in the
future and in improved stock are the
only things which will now advance
prices.
All farm stock is much depressed and
it appears that there is as good pros
poets for the horse trade several years
from now as for any animals. Other
stock when ready for market must be
sold whatever the prices at the time,
for fatted animals are held at a loss.
The good horse on the other hand can
pay part if not all of his keep with
work. This training will add to his
value whether sold at home or in dis
tant market. In the hands of a skilled
horseman promising brood mares may
now be of greater value than any other
domestic animals. To almost any farm
err the choice mare is worth much more
than is now offered for her if bred with
care and her produce judiciQuslY hand:

to be concealed in a hat. Masks are
an antiquated precaution. One is,
however, preserved, which was worn
by burglar who was detected under 4
bed in a public house before closing
time.
Burglaries committed after o'clock
incur a heavier penalty than house
breaking achieved before that hour.
For this and other reasons the time of
dinner is usually selected for the loot
ing of a large establishment This has
time for exploration, and the burglar
must be well acquainted with the in
terror of the house. In this connection
women play an important and usually
an unconscious part.
1t is not difficult for a nice spoken
young man to get on friendly terms
with the maid servants of a large es-
tablishement, and servants take Il spe-
cial pride in showing their friends
and admirers round a well appointed
house. A judicious appreciation of the
taste displayed in the mistress bou-
doir leads naturally to a view of the
bed room, and not seldom to voluntary
information as to the position of the
jewel box or safe. Nearly all the re-
cent great jewel robberies from private
houses have been effected during the
