HINTS FOR HoRsEMEN.

IT is wise to sell when a good offer is
made
In 1898 there were sold in Chicago, at
the Union stock yards, "a, $40 horses for
81, 424, $50.
ACCORDING to the Russian rules in a
race horse can only make three breaks
of six jumps each.
THE best results are those obtained
after the trainer has had an oppor-
tunity to learn the disposition OF the
colt.
AFTER all, the color of horse mat
one: "a good horse is always a good
color"
IT is estimated that the introduction
of the bicycle and the electric car has
thrown more than a million horses out
of employment.
THE horse business has been brought
down to practical business principles,
which is one of the best indications Of
its future prosperity.
THE first thing for the breeder to do
is to form clear idea of the product
desired, and then to use his best means
and intelligence 20 produce it.
SKIM milk is excellent for building up
a rundown constitution in colt, but
it should be given in moderation and
must not be suddenly disused.
The demand for western COW ponies
has increased, owing to their being
used as polo ponies in the east Prices
have risen and it would appear as if
there was money in the business
THE power and longevity of the horse
are in exact ratio to the intelligent care
and feeding he receives. He can draw
on his fixed stock of vitality to supply
the deficiency of food or to do over
work, but it shortens his life and re-
duces his value.-N. Y. World.

ing like a telescope in case the depth is
changed; it can be made of stiff cloth
and laced together at the joint. The
marker is adjustable and can be
changed to either side without getting
off
The plan for getting the potatoes the
proper distance apart is quite simple
also. A short piece of fence wire with
a ring bent on each end is bent down
over the rim of the cog-wheel; bolt is
placed through the rings and between
two cogs, then the tap put on tight
The number of bolts needed will de-
pend upon the distance apart that you
wish to plant. Now fasten a spring on
the frame SO that it will touch these
bolts, and the dropper is told just when
to drop.

how to handle both blacksmith and
carpenter tools) can build this dropper.

more than pay for itself in the cultiva-
ton of one crop on two acres properly
handled.-J. n. Frye, Jr., in Ohio

The Popularity of Mutton

1t is not altogether the cheapness Of
mutton that is leading people to use it
more freely. They have learned that
it is an excellent and healthful meat,
and the consumption of mutton in the
United States was six times as great in
1898 as it was in 1887. We are undoubt-
edly killing off sheep faster than their
natural increase This must lead to
increasing scarcity of fat sheep for
mutton, and higher prices for the NUT
ton when marketed Sheep cannot be
increased very rapidly at the best, and
if our stock becomes depleted it takes
several years to build 1t up again

HORSES ARE NERVOUS.
Therefore They should Be Treated with
ConsideIabIe Consideration.

Therefore They Should BE Treated with
Considerable Consideration
The great superiority of the horse to
all other dumb animals, according to
Mr.. Il. C Merwin. is the fneness of his
nervous system Almost all the fastest
horses. says the same writer, have been
remarkable for their nervous "high
strung" constitutions Others have had
as good legs and as good lungs but
have lacked the necessary courage and
determination, the do or die spirit,
which makes a horse keep on after he
is tired. But this very nervousness rem
ders the horse the most irritable of
creatures, the most easily worried and
distressed. Upon sthis point Mr.. Mer-
win makes some observations that are
worth reading by all who have or ex-
pect to have horses of their own.
Harsh treatment, though it stop
short of infiicting physical pain, keeps
nervous horse in a state of misery.
On the other hand, it is perfectly true,
as a besotted but intelligent stable
keeper once observed to me: "a kind
word for a boss is as good sometimes
as feed of oats"
A single blow may be enough to spoil
a racer. Daniel Lambert, founder of
the Lambert branch of the Morgan
family, was thought as a three-year-old
to be the fastest trotting stallion of his
day. He was very handsome, stylish,
Intelligent horse and also extremely
sensitive
His driver, Dan Mace, though one of
the best reinsmen in America, once
made the mistake, through i'll temper
or bad judgment, of giving Daniel
Lambert a severe cut with his whip,
and that single blow put an end to his
usefulness as a trotter. He became wild
and ungovernable in harness, and re-
manned SO for the rest of his life.
In dealing with a horse, more than
with most animals, one ought to exer-
else patience, care. and, above all, the
power of sympathy, so as to know if
possible the real motive of his doing or
refusing to do this or that To acquire
such knowledge and to act upon it
when acquired is a large part of the
ethics of housekeeping.

''Thirty-dollar overcoats for ten, !"
was the way the advertisement ran.
In the windows hung some really hand

calculated to make the passer-by be-

was made that it was already sold
The customer didn't see it in that
light, and in consequence a conference
of clothiers was held in the back part
of the store. A man came forward
and said:
There's a man in the back room
that wants that coat"
Il want it, too" said the customer.
''But it doesn't fit you"

Fac value OF Corn Fodder.

We have always attempted to impress
the farmer with the value of corn fod-
der. Prof Morrow has said that corn
fodder or corn slower may be safely fed
to either horses, cattle or sheep, wheth-
er the animals be young Or old For
hogs which it is desired to fatten rap
idly in the early autumn there Is,
probably, NO better food than the still
green and sweet corn fodder. Neither
corn fodder nor corn slower is usually q
desirable food as q sole ration Many
thousands of Ale beeves have been fat
tened with little other food than corn
fodder. Voice.
