A HOrse's Leg,

THE measurement of a horses leg be-
low the knee is no correct indication of
the size of bone i'll that region any nor
than it is of its general quality, says Il
correspondent of the London Live Stock
kJournal. Sin large, coarse draft horses
Rthis is particularly the case, and the
tcoarser they are the more deceptive is
their measurement A leg clothed be-
low the knee with ii thick skin and an
abundance of simultaneous tissue will
girth considerably more than another Of
equal and even larger bone. Many Shires
beneath their long, silky feather have re-
markably clean legs, and the tineness Of
the feather is generally indicative of
clean limbs underneath. Large knee
Joints are highly priced, and rightly,
because large joints are evidence of large
bone beneath them. Each joint has q
relative proportion to the bone immedi-
ately below it. In quality it is admitted
that bone differs greatly-that the bone,
for instance, of a race horse, although
smaller, is of greater density than that
of a dray horse. The cannon bone of the
antelope is almost as solid as ivory,
while the ponderous wild mammalia
have leg bones of considerable porosity.
Thick skin, a large amount of subcu-
taneous tissue Oh the legs and coarse
hair from tho knee downward usually
denote a sluggish Emphatic tempera-
ment and vulgar blood ligaments, and
as to flat bone it is q misnomer, but
fiat legs are desirable, for to approach
this form the back tendons must be vel
developed, whereby strength and dura'
bility of muscle are assured at n Of
the weak points in the exterior of the

Select Sweet Corn While Husking.

The progressive farmer always breeds
form his choicest stock and plants seeds
selected from the very best of the crop.
By this means he overcomes the con-
slant tendency to degeneration and Sc
cures strains of varieties and breeds
which are best adapted to the soil and
climate of his farm. This is especially
true of maize, of which only the best
filled ears from vigorous stalks should
DO used for seed. At husking time this
selection can be made to the greatest
advantage. Whenever a choice ear from
a good stalk is found, the husker should
throw it into a separate pile or into
the front part of the wagon. When un-
loading, these best ears may be thrown
into barrels or boxes, and when resorted
may be stored in a dry room for the
winter. Such continuously selected seed
corn will Don make q neighborhood
reputation for yearly improvement

Husking Corn by Machinery.

There are corn huskers and fodder
cutters with a capacity of 200 to 300
bushels of corn per day and requiring
six to eight men to manage the same.
An Indiana correspondent of The Ma
tional Stockman who has had his shock
corn handled by one of these machines
thus describes it: The large size has a
capacity of from 200 to 300 bushels per
day, owing to corn and time of year.
With low wheeled trucks, two OF three
hands and teams will deliver the fodder
to the machine, one man and team with
two wagons will are for the husked
corn, and one man with the aid of the
l6 foot elevator will care for the chaffed
fodder.
The machine has two swapping rollers
that mash the stalk, and the four knives
tear it in pieces, SO that there are nc
whole sections to hurt the mouths Of
stock. The husks that are taken off by
the husking rollers are not cut, but are
elevated with the fodder, and the corn
is elevated into the wagon without any
hand work. As soon az the corn will
keep in small bulk your fodder Is ready

The Farmers Review calls attention
to a novelty in way of fairs reported
from Peru, Ind: The first day of the
street fair proved that the exhibition,
which continued one week, was to be q
complete success. Broadway, the prin'
cipal business street, was crowded from
one extremity to the other with exhibits.
1t is an attraction somewhat similar tc
a county fair. but with the exception OF
being held OIL the streets and being free

booths in front Of their stores and dis
played their goods, and in the center OF
the streets the stock and other farm ex.

Cows that are handled by rough and
violent drivers and stablemen are much
more subject to abortion than those
treated gently. A man in Pennsylvania
kept a dairy in which the COWS were
continually aborting. They were tied in
stalls SO short that it was with great
difficulty one cow could squeeze behind
another. They crushed and injured one
another in passing into and out Of the
stalls. Besides that the boys who took
care Of these unfortunate cattle used to
raise a great h~ullabaloo and crack wagon
whips over their heads to rush them in
to the stable. Then the farmer wonder
ed that his cows gave birth to dead
calves.
In building a COW stable be sure to
make the doorways wide enough 30 that
COWS near to calving time may pass
through without providing or crushing
their sides against the doorway. This

Horse Evolution.

The largest pair of horses shown at
the cart horse parade, remarks the staid
London Spectator, were two bays that
stood Is hands and probably weighed
at least a ton each and were capable of
drawing a weight Of Owe four tons in
addition to their driver. Compared with

primitive ancestor Of the horse until
more evidence is forthcoming than is
at present available from such remote

one-third in height and three-quarters

enc from this fact is a doubt whether
the limit of size which nature seems tC

are more favorable to their perfect de-
velopment than are the Asian steppes

EGGS IN WINTER.
How q small Flock of Mixed Hens Were
Made Profitable.

1t is very desirable to have hens lay
well in cold weather, when eggs bring a
good price. To succeed in this is within
the reach Of all who keep fowls. 1t can
not be accomplished without effort,
however, which must DO kept up as
long as stormy or cold weather contin-
ues.
Much depends, Of course, upon the
breed Of fowls. An American Agricul-
turist correspondent, writing on the sub
ject, says:
] am inclined to think that a flock of
mixed hens will produce more eggs
than any one kind. Not only does my
own experience teach this, but observa
ton among other poultry keepers IS
well. While some breeds may well be
called general purpose fowls, the Leg
horns are probably unexcelled for eggs.
1t is useless to look for large quantities
Of eggs from the heavier breeds. Where
II wants both eggs and market fowls
it is well to keep more than one breed.
An entire flock of uniform color is more
pleasing to tho eye, but q mixture is
more satisfactory as an all around flock.

THE CHICAGO SHOW.
Fat Stock and Horse Exhibition Will BE
Held Together.

Helu ICgcthers
The Illinois state board of agriculture
has drafted the prize list for the Ameri-
can horse show, which exhibition will
be resuscitated at Tattersalls of Chi
cago's big horse mart Nov. 90 to Dec.
/. The fat stock show will be held in
connection with this exhibit, but it is
not probable that this show will be of
an extent that will encroach seriously
on the space for horses. The prize list is
ruite comprehensive, including classes
ior thoroughbreds, standard breds,
Cleveland bays, French c%oachers, Ger
man coachers, hackneys, Morgans, road
ster stations, gated saddlers, Shetland
ponies and all the draft breeds, together
with rings for fou~r-in-hands, tandems,
carriage pairs, hunters, jumpers, etc.
Each breed named is given three rings
II years old or over, 3 years old and
. years old-in both sexes, and prizes
are uniformly @25 for first, $40 for Sec
ond and $40 for third. 1t is greatly to
be regretted that the rings for yearlings
and foals have been omitted. The ac-
commodations at Tattersalls are limited
to $50 stalls, and Superintendent Pace
states that he could not possibly figure
out room enough for the youngsters, and
solely on this account rings for the
yearlings and foals are not provided.
There are no stables III the immediate
vicinity to accommodate an overflow,
and il is Thought that the stall room
| will be taxed to care for the older horses
which will be shown.
We fear this omission will initiate
greatly against the show of draft horses,
and it is TO he hoped that after the en-
tries give some idea Of the numbers
room may be found to accommodate the
young things in the exhibition of which
our breeders take such great pride. In
viaw of the limited number of stalls at
the disposal Of the board, it will doubt
less be well for exhibitors to file entries
Immediately, as late corners may have
to he rejected for lack of room. The
board has been compelled to adopt a
rule that not more than two entries i'll
any ring will be accepted from any one
exhibitor.
A total Of $1b, 000 i'll prizes is offered,
which amount exceeds by about So, SOC
any previous offering at this show. The
prizes arc not large, but it must be re-
membered that the chances for gate
money are not nearly so good as wheI
the show was located on the lake front.
A guarantee fund of SO, 900 has beer
subscribed i'll this city, and every effor'
will be made to bring out a crowd
Special attractions will be arranged fol

Dyspeptic Hogs.

49,
The acidity of the stomach, which is
the result of feeding hogs exclusively on
corn, may be temporarily corrected by
Feeding charcoal. But in this case, as
fn most others, prevention is better than
cure. The hogs fed with a properly bal
anced ration, including some fine wheat
middlings and a few roots each day,
= will not be troubled by acid stomach.
Acidity is a sign that fermentation has
progressed to its seconC stage, the first
being alcoholic. 1t is not possible to
cause food to ferment in even the slight
est degree without some waste of its
nutrition. When fermentation pro-
crosses so far as to make acidity of the
stomach, the loss is much more consid-
cradle. This is in addition to the loss
by impaired digestion, of which men
ton has before peel made.
There is no reason why hogs should
be troubled by poor digestion. The
power of the pig to get nourishment
out of all food given it is greater than
that Of any other animal. If pigs We're
never, even in fattening, kept Oh con-
centrated food, they ought always to
keep the perfect digestion with which
the young pig nearly always begins life.
We say nearly always, for it is one Of
the most serious facts in pig breeding
that by feeding a breeding sow mainly
on corn or other concentrated food her
pigs will be stunted even before their
birth, and. if we may use the word,
predestincd to runthood during their en-
tire natural life .-American Cultivator.
The Shire.
The Shire horse, the descendant of
the Lincolnshire black, is bred for the
most part in Yorkshire, Lincolnshire,
Berkshire and O~xfordshire. The horses
bred in these counties differ from one
another in size and character, each
bounty, perhaps owing to differences Of
poil, possessing its own peculiar type,
ret although such is the case they are
III true specimens of the Shire horse

1~ristics Of this breed in their size, form
Nd great growth Of hair about their
legs. They usually have large heads,
rood muscular shoulders, wide chests,
hort backs, with we'll developed pelvis
md thighs.
These animals are bred to the highest
perfection in the fens Of Lincolnshire,
some growing to II hands high before
their third year. From this fact il
would seem that soil had some effect in
producing size. Youatt, who wrote upon
this subject 80 years ago. will not give
the land the credit for such develop.
ment, but considers that certain situa.
lions are better suited than others for
the various kinds Of farming and the
breeding Of different animals, and that

to the moisture Of the soil and the invig.
