The export of American horses is
developing rapidly. With our cheap
horses our leading horse markets
have constantly these shrewd horse
buyers from England and Scotland
who take large numbers every
month. They come here for coach
and carriage horses, but finding SO
few available they buy cheaper
class of horses for the bus and tram
car service and cheap horses for
light street traffic.
German buyers take chunks and
light drafts. French buyers are
plungers. They drop in and buy
100 or 200 horses-light, cheap cab
horses-which they formerly bought
in Germany cheaper than they can
raise them in France. French breed
ers raise but few cheap horses.
Their standard in horse breeding
is high. All north and central
France raises fine coach and milit-
airy and draft horses. They can buy
their cheap horses cheaper than
they can raise them.
Fifty American horses recently
arrived in London and were sold at
auction at an average of $50 { 43O).
Twenty-four were from Canada and
about the same from Iowa. They
were very much admired, and every
such shipment opens the way for
more American horses, and if we
will raise large draft and coach
horses we can gettwo or three times
as much for them.

Early lambs.

When early lambs are wanted the
first part of August is good time
to breed the ewes. This will bring
the lambs in December, which lie a
better month than January. But
if raising of early lambs is under
taken three essentials must be look
ed after. The ewes must be good
ones and be mated to a thorough
bred, well-matured, vigorous ram.
Good, dry, comfortable shelter must
be provided, and plenty of feed, SO
that the ewes can supply the lambs
with plenty of nourishing milk.
1t will prove a good plan to SOW
a patch of rye, convenient to the
sleeps quarters, especially for pas
turage for the ewes that are to bring
early lambs. All reasonable care
must be taken to push the growth,
as earliness, as well as good size
and condition, is important in MAX
ing the most out of the lambs.

Those who do not put much faith

Those who do not put much faith
in the future of the horse breeding
industry as a profitable business
are referred to the following from
the Scottish Farmer" of June ID:
Harness horses are SO scarce in
this country that firms in want OF
the best class of such are under the
necessity Of going to America to
have their needs supplied. In view
of complaints about depressed ag-
riculture, there is strange irony
in all this importation of foreign
products-alive and dead-animal
and vegetable. Surely, if matters
were properly adjusted, Great Brit
ain might breed all the carriage
horses she wants, and have good
many to spare for others. Until ad-
iustments do take place, matters
will remain as at present, and job
masters will be compelled to go far
afeld to find the best class of car
riage horses"

FAN strawberry Planting.

Strawberry plants can be set out
in the Fall of the year from the
young runners of this season, but
they can not be depended upon for
producing a crop next Spring. The
advantage of making the bed in Au-
gust or September is that the work
can be done better than when the
hurry of Spring operations may re-
tard the transplanting which should
be done early.

FARM Notes.


GMACAUMB anu WSA~A%A1
It is out of season now to make
garden, but it is good time to
put chicken proof fence around it.
The conflict between chickens and
garden is an old one, and one long
drawn out. Some people regard
the two as inconsistent and will not
attempt both. They either have
chickens and no garden, or else gar
den and no chickens. Yet, it need
not necessarily be so. Both chickens
and garden may be maintained in
thriving condition on the same
premises. Only little judicious
fencing is necessary, that's all.
Now, let ns tell you what we con-
slider the best garden fence to put
up where there are chickens about.
Go to work and set posts 10 feet
apart; stretch smooth wire at the
bottom, as low down as possible;
then stretch similar wire up just
5 feet from the bottom one. Then
get some good pinch mesh wire
poultry netting, and stretch it
around the Enclosure, lacking it to
each post and tying it to the two
horizontal wires every 6 inches or
/ foot. The wire netting should be
5 feet wide, the same as the two
wires referred to. This sort of a
fence will keep the chickens, both
old and young, out of the garden,
for the chickens always look up for
something to afford foothold be-
fore flying a fence, particularly SO
when flying into a place instead OF
flying out. The wire netting stretch
ed on wires afford no inducements
for flying, and SO the fowl that looks
up to it for a foothold sees none to
speak of, and does not try the ex-
pertinent. A fence of the sort and
height named would hardly answer
to fence or yard up poultry with, as
the fowls, being in close place,
would naturally make more effort
to get out than they would put
forth to fly into garden. Ofcourse,
when put up high enough, poultry
netting is just che thing to yard
fowls with. The posts to a fence
should be at least foot taller than
the netting and pointed at the top
SO as to afford no place for the
chickens to alight in safety if they
should try to fly the fence.
Lyon County times. [volume] (Silver City, Nev.) 1874-1907, 1895-08-03

The stable should be protected
from flies and insects with wire
screens. Ifthis is done, the animals
will secure more rest and afford a
larger profit.
A kicking COW, or one that re-
quires much labor and attention
when being MIXED, should be got
ten rid of. Such cows are nuisances
and make the dairyman's work dis
agreeable.
Oats when cut in the milky stage
(before the grain is ripe) make an
excellent ration for horses. The
nutritious matter is arrested in the
stalks, and both straw and grain
are relished.
A cow will shrink in her milk
because of lack ola supply of drink
ing water sooner than from any
other cause, and it may be safely
stated that insufficient water when
the cows are in the pasture is very
frequent occurrence on farms.
Market gardeners find that the
pea crop returns as large profit as
any that can be grown SO easily.
They sell it while green, and for the
very earliest get very high prices.
The pea is hardy, and the farmer
wbo has light, warm soil has as
good a chance as the market gar
dener.
To have thistles appear in oats
is to have a risk of losing the oats
or raising more thistles. The rem
edy is to go into the oat field and
cut out every thistle with knife.
If the thistles are too numerous to
do this, then the best thing that can
be done is to pillow the crop under
and kill out the thistles by putting
the land in potatoes or keeping the
field clean by cultivation.
Few things meaner can be con-
ceived, says Boston paper, than
selling farmer or gardener fraud
ulent seed. In neighboring town
is to be seen half acre of currants
ruined by the farmer having been
sold old and worthless hellebore by
the village druggist. The same vii
lage and neigbboring ones have lost
thousands of dollars through buy
ing and planting wretched garden
seeds.
Arrange your poultry house SO
that all cleaning can be done with
a broom. To do this, keep the floor
well covered with dry dirt, and
when the house is to be cleaned
simply sweep off the floor and scat
ter fresh dirt, using an extra guam
tity under the roosts. In this man
ner the work can be done in few
minutes, and the droppings can be
placed in barrels, as the dirt will
assist in preserving them.

The farmer who makes grain a
speciality is disposed to give up
small fruits to others. This is a
mistake. as there should be variety
of crops grown in order to be better
enabled to meet drouths, wet sea-
sons, insects and other drawbacks.
1t should be the farmers object to
have something upon which to rely
among the whole rather than to de-
pend solely on single crop. There
is no reason why every farmer
should not be afruit-grower.

ductors are the wives, daughters and wo-
men friends OF Masons who have resorted
TO this heroic expedient 10 raise money.
The women began the collecting of fares,
and appear To enjoy the novel experience,
reporting no accidents or unpleasant &C.
currences The first relief took place at IL
O'Clock and the second occurred at 4 in the
afternoon. Among those of the first crew
and daughter, Mrs w. A. Peters and Mrs.
T.. b. Maltby
The women's ability in gathering cash
fares is astonishing. A young woman
conductor on the Essexville line was
handed "a ticket. THAT don't GO" said
she, smiling The gentleman sheepishly
slipped his hand into his pocket and drew
out a silver dollar Though he was alone
she rang three fares and made change ac-
oordingly. The conductors of the open
cars are compelled to walk the platforms
along the sides. A few of the women do
not experience the least trouble, while
others do not gather fares until stop"
or ''slow down" is made Others sit be-
side the passengers while making change.
Transfers or tickets are seldom taken.
The new conductors will gather more
cash fares than was ever known TO have
been taken on a street railway.
