This Story of the Lame Horse and the
Young Doctor.
Zone reads so many stories about ami
NAL intelligence that it would be hazard
GUS for a doubter to express his disbe-
lief in almost any gathering of men at
the present day." remarked DIR. W. W.
Watkins. ga little instance came
within my own observation a number
of years ago when was studying med
icine and which convinced me that the
members of the horse family at least
ought to be credited with the possession
of very considerable quantity of rea-
soning power. 1t was the custom for
the students at the medical institution
at which l pursued my studies to wear
small badge upon their coats to dis
tinguish them from others at the COL
lege. A horse belonging to the estab-
lishment was used great deal about
the medical department., and the ami
NAL seemed to have special preference
for the embryo doctors more than for
any other people about the establish
ment.

gathered in little knot upon small
campus in the rear Of the college, the
animal in question, which used to nip
the grass in the location, came toward
the group limping very badly. He came
to stop dozen or more feet from the
crowd and. carefully surveying the lot
of us, finally made up his mind as to
what he wanted to do and without any
hesitation limped directly to my side,
whinnied, stuck his nose against my
body and held up his left foreleg. Look
ing down, 1 discovered large nail i'm
bedded in the frog of his hoof This
had evidently caused the lameness. I
then realized the interesting fact that
the animal desired attendance. ex-
traoted the nail with some difficulty,
and the horse whimpered with relief
and walked away. Rather curious as to
why the beast had picked me out to at
tend to his wound, glanced at the
boys and found the solution to the prob
lem. Not one of the group had his med
ical badge upon his coat but myself.
The horse had recognized the insignia,
realized its significance and acted ac-
cordingly. New Orleans Times Dem

Bees, says Horbis, can embalm as
successfully as could the ancient Egyp-
tians. 1t often happens in damp weather
that slug or snail will enter a bee
hive. This is, Of course, to the unpro-
tected slug a case of sudden death. The
bees fall upon him and sting him to
death at once. But what to do with the
carcass becomes vital question. If left
where it is, it will breed a regular
pestilence. Now comes in the clever
ness of the insects They set to work
and cover it with wax. and there you
may see it lying embalmed just as the
nations of old embalmed their dead.
When it is snail that is the intruder.
he is, of course, impeuetrable to their
sting, so they calmly cement his shell
with wax to the bottom of the hive
imprisonment for life, with no hope Of
pardon.

The present is undoubtedly season
Of lace, ribbons and fluffy effects.
Black lace over colored silk is once
more in vogue, and the organizes and
transparent lawns are sufficient to
tempt the most austere Of women "a
extravaganza.
A favorite style shows skirt formed
by two full knife plaitings worn over a
silk slip. The greater number of bod
ices show the bolero idea, and the vari-
ETY. Of these little additions to the toilet
is almost bewildering.
Women of wealth who have stores OF
costly lace are having priceless shawls
made over, or draped, into the popular
style. Less fortunate ones have the OPP
portunity to buy lovely garniturea
ready made for small sum.
Ribbons are seen in profusion. Long
sash ends fall over the skirts and bows
adorn the belts in most fascinating
fashion. Coquettish one-sided effects
are noticeable and allow an opportun-
ity for personal skin and preference.

Grapes, like other fruits, need to be
carefully handled to bring the best
prices. The vines need to be gone over
frequently during the ripening season,
gathering only those with full color,
because grapes do not, like other fruits,
color after being gathered. The bunch
es should be cut off with pair Of scis-
sors, and so handled as not to disturb
the bloom. Ordinary varieties may be
at once packed from the vines into the
basket that is intended for sale. Choice
varieties should be gathered into shall
low trays or baskets, in which they
should stand day or two on shelves in
the fruit house, and then repacked. BY
this treatment the stems viii wilt, and
the punches win then keep without
molding and pack more closely than
when green.

Successful Milkinan.

Mr.. H. B. Hood is one of the Oldest
milk contractors in the business. He
began in business in Boston as milk
peddler in 1846 and for nine years
bought his milk of other contractors.
In 1866 he began running Car to Derry
and soon moved there and bought a
farm. He now owns $50 acres and
keeps about 100 head of cattle. He is
milking between so and so COWS. Hol-
stein blood is prominent, but it is not
quite satisfactory to him in the quality
Of milk produced, and he is getting
out of the breed, by crossing in Ayr
shires. The milk of his herd averages
about IA per cent total solids and is
quite uniform in quality. varying very
little from month to month. Mr.. Hood
takes excellent care Of his milk supply
and sets good example to those of
whom he buys milk. He has no elabo-
rate barn furnishings and the structure
itself is an old fashioned one without
modern facilities, but, like the thrifty
man that he is, he utilities what he has
to the best possible advantage. The
barn is 1870 feet long and there are tied
up in it only cattle enough to allow a
sufficient amount of fresh air for each
one. The barn is well lighted and in
addition has clean, cheerful look, by
having all of the woodwork inside white
washed twice year. The cattle them
selves are kept clean and absorbents are
freely used about the stall to make
cleanliness doubly sure. The milk, as
soon as drawn, is removed at once from
the barn to an adjoining milkroom, to
which barn odors are absolutely mac
cessible. Here it is strained, run through
a large mixer, drawn off into cans and
placed in a cooling tank. The cattle are
we'll fed and kept healthy and thrifty.
A trough nearly on level with the
floor runs in front of all the animals
In this they are fed and watered, warm
water being supplied in the winter.
The trough is regularly flushed out, so
as to insure cleanliness and prevent any
remains of souring food being left.
Most of the COWS are Mr.. Hoods own
raising. As he has never, to his know
ledge, had tuberculosis in his barn. or
any case of mysterious running down
and unthriftiness ON the part of the cat
tie. he argues that the presumption that
he has tuberculosis in his herd is ex-
tremely small. New England Farmer

BOX FOR FARM WAGON.

tables, strawberries, cream, etc. The
drawers at the bottom of the box will
be found convenient for eggs in two or
three tiers of pasteboard egg filters, or
in the patent wire filters, while the
rallied space on top will hold any articles
that may be carried in bags or boxes.
Many farmers have a strong prejudice
against "peddling" their produce, as
they call the house-to-house sale of it.
This is an unfortunate prejudice, for
selling directly to the consumer is one
of the most profitable methods of dis
posing of farm crops. Nor need it be at
all disagreeable, if rightly managed.
Have nothing but the best upon your
cart; have regular routes and regular
customers, and they will watch for
your coming and make your trading
agreeable. Selling at first hand means
steady cash income, and prices much
higher than would be received from
dealers. Then, too, it often means the
sale of produce when the dealers are
overstocked, and not willing to pur-
chase at any price.
A valuable point to be borne in mind
by those who thus sell their farm wares
is not only to. have choice articles for
sale, but to carry them to the customers
in attractive shape. Let the wagon look
neat, being well painted and having the
name of the farm painted in bright let
tiers upon the sides. Then let the driver
be neatly dressed, pleasant and gentle
manly in his address, and the work will
prosper. These little matters are of far
more Importance in the successful sell
ing of farm products than many would
believe. Attractive appearance from
beginning to end sells goods. Don't try
to build up such a trade by using an old
ramshackle wagon, with the articles for
sale dumped indiscriminately on the
bottom; such plan doesn't attract pur-
chasers.-N. Y. Tribune.

rha passing Of the Cayuse.

Fossil collections gathered in old lake
beds of eastern Oregon demonstrate that
the broad plains between the Rocky and
Cascade mountains were the original
habitat of the prehistoric horse, feet
little animal no larger than fox which
ii the long ago scampered over the
lonely land. After the lapse of ages the
modern horse is now to degenerate upon
the stamping ground of his ancestors
Tbe cayuse has become SO vaiueless by
the invasion of the electro car and the
bicycle and the disappearance OF the
stagecoach and the wagon train that
tba halter has been taken from his neck
and he has been turned loose to struggle
with nature for his own subsistence

of wild horses now roam as untram-
meled as in prehistoric days, and during
the past winter these persisted IN large
numbers. e.
tits a case of the survival OF the Mt

read his doom in the setting sun, but

CAN MOVE ANYTHING.


Marvellous Feats of the Modern
Methods of Pushing.
There are certain men working quiet
~ in various parts OF the United States
who could If they chose to do it, move
the Pyramids, pick up the Egyptian
obelisks, or lift modern skyscraper
from its caisson bed and carry it across
the street. There are not many such
men, yet few, If any, ponderous objects
exist in the world which they will not
attempt to move intact for a considera-
tion. In the directory these men are
called house movers, but they are en-
titled to a designation of far greater
dignity, for some of their achievements
are numbered among the great engineer
ing feats Of the world. Within the past
few months the house movers have ex-
perienced an unwonted activity. Some
really creditable and in some cases stu
pendous feats have been performed.
The moving of Lowering hall at Johns
Hopkins university was one of these
feats, the moving of an upper New York
house is blocks along the public high
way was another, and the very recent
moving and resetting Of tail smoke
stack at Manhanset was a third.
One of these house movers declares
that there is no building, however
heavy. however bulky, which cannot be
lifted from its foundations and con-
veyed any distance. This means, OF
course, without any damage to the
building itself; that the very ornaments
on the mantel pieces, the bric-a~brac In
the cabinets will in no way be disturbed.
that the window glass will not be even
cracked, that the home life OF the fam
lily occupying the moving house viii be
undisturbed. Such is absolutely the
fact. 1t is not necessary for the occu-
pants of the building to temporarily
change their quarters; to take the cas-
tors off the bedsteads, nor to pack up
all the perishable articles in the house.
1t is on record that an old tall clock
which was in house which was moved
in Westchester county, N. Y, never
stopped running all during the
progress of removal. On the other
hand there seems to be no limit to the
movers capabilities as far as weight is
concerned. The Brighton Beach hotel,
which was placed on $50 fiat cars and
moved 600 feet, weighed 5000 tons. The
weight Of the recently moved railroad
station at Mott Haven, N. Y, is ROO
tons This building was composed en-
tirely of brick and stone and the weight
is very unequally distributed, a central
tower alone weighing 500 tons. To be
frank, these feats take all Of the won
derment out of the raising of the pyra-
mids and obelisks, inasmuch as the most
primitive tools are used by the engi.

Inc market now requires long, lean
pigs, with the red and white meat we'll
mixed. Fat masses of blubber which
formerly were in demand are now suit
able for the lumber woods, arctic expe-
ditions and the like, for which purpose
1t is purchased at a low figure, while
there is an unlimited demand for lean
meat at remunerative prices.
The improved Large Yorkshire has
become very popular with the pork pack
ers, who consider it the best factor for
bacon production. This breed has been
tried in all parts of the world. Ireland
and Denmark hold perhaps the highest
positions as producers of superior pork
and bacon, and it is mainly due to the
introduction of large numbers of i'm
proved Large Yorkshires into these
countries that they have achieved such
a high position in the English markets.
This breed answers the requirements of
the pork packer in every respect 1t is
light in the head, has light neck and
shoulders, well sprung ribs, with good
heart girth, a narrow, we'll feshed back
and thick loins, great length, full TANKS
and hams well let down. The meat con-
sists of very large proportion of lean,
while it is rapid grower and will fat
ten easily at any time.
The sows are excellent mothers and
grand mixers, and, as might be expect
ed from their great length, are we'll
able to raise large litters, which they
usually produce Their precocity and
fecundity are truly wonderful. Seldom
does typical Yorkshire SOW produce
less than a dozen pigs at litter, and
this is a very strong point in their favor.
1t is not of the slightest use for the
breeders of some of our old established
varieties of pigs to write to the papers
and point out the antiquity of their
breed and give the opinions of few
breeders of that variety. The simple
question is: Are the showyard winning
pigs of the day those best suited for
conversion into bacon, or are they so
formed as likely to prove of value for
crossing on the common pigs Of the
country? The bacon curers say they
are not. The United States exports $40,-
600, 900 worth of bacon to England an
nual1y. This important trade is, then,
worth fostering, and the sine qua non
for the continuation and increase of this
trade is the production of such pigs as
merit the name of the English bacon
hog. IL. A. Macdonald in Country

The general passenger agent Of one
of the Chicago trunk lines received a
letter from a Kansas man the other day
requesting pass for himself to Chicago
and return. There was nothing about
the letter to indicate that the writer
had any claim whatsoever to the courte-
sy he requested, but the railway man
thought that perhaps the Kansan had
some connection with the road in some
way, possibly as a local freight agent.
So he wrote back, Please state explio-
lily on what account you request trans
portation. +" By return mail came this
reply, I've got to go to Chicago some
