The progressive breeder from thid
time on will take the following qualil
ties into account, that are necessary
to make a horse useful and salable in,
the markets. To be up to the require
ments of u good light harness horse,
"a roadster) the first and most import
ant quality is size. To meet the de-,
mand no driver should be less than
l54 to 164 hands high with good ac-,
tion and breeding the Wilkes family!
preferred; this class of horses have be-.
come very scarce and have advanced
very much in our markets, and are
selling as high as ever before, and are
the most profitable to produce, as they
are the class that the export trade are
looking for, and it is that trade that
addsvery materially to the demand for
large drivers. The markets show al
demand for but two class of horses
the heavy draft, weighing 1900 lbs. and
over. and the roadster 15a to IGN
hands high with breeding style and
action. Anything between these two
classes are things Of the past, no del
mand and consequently no remuner1
atlve price for them.-Extract fromI

Mr.. Green, in speaking of the out.
look for the creamery business, re-
marks that the low price of farm
products has induced a farmer here,
another there, and so on one after
another, to part with a COW or two
to pay taxes or accruing liabilities,
keeping the granary of cheap oats,
and cutting off the means to supply
an empty wallet through the butter
business.

Of the previous seasons growth. In
setting a new plantation. mark off the
rows eight feet apart. After N year
set cedar posts at each end of the row
and at intervals of about sixty-sis
feet. Stretch wires and attach them
to these posts. There should be wire
on each side of tho row. When the
new canes are three feet high, pinch
off the tip, so that l~aterals will start
out along the stem and form q bushy
top. At the end OF season cut out and
remove all old wood and just before
the ground freezes lay all down and
cover lightly with earth. 1t will pay
to use a pillow after the bushes are
down. Throw a furrow toward the
row, then pillow a space between the
rows. IN the spring, pillow again and
the soil will be in good condition for
the following simmer. Give a liber'

.sAs in the daily wear and tear OF
life a great deal of the substance of q
mans body is used up, it is absolutely
necessary that the repair TO the body
be carefully and systematically looked
AFTER writes Mrs. s. 7. Rorer in the
Ladies' Home Journal. "Then, too,
man n ust create heat and force, &C.
cording to the climate in which he
lives and the occupation he follows.
A wise combination of food is there.
fore necessary to keep the body in
working order. In cold weather we
need q larger amount OF carbonaceous
foods-fats, sugars, and starches-
than We do in summer. In the hot
climates and during the hot months
fruit and green vegetables, containing
the salts necessary to keep the blood
in good condition, should be used
freely. According to our method of
living in this country, we should take
about two parts of repair food, such
as meat, eggs. milk. cheese, or in the
vegetable kingdom, the old peas,
beans, and l~entils, to three parts of
carbonsceons food, such as white
bread. potatoes, rice, butter, cream,
and fats of all kinds. Then we must
have q certain amount of bulky or
watery vegetables, such as lettuce,
spinach, cabbage, onions, and also the
fruits. In making out a daily ration
we should have al the beginning Of
the meal some light dish that may be
taken slowly, to prepare the stomach
for the food that is to follow, then q
meat or its equivalent. With beef we
should serve potatoes; with mutton,
rice. With chickens, either rice or
potatoes"
The Penn's Grove record., 1897-04-30

No kind. of grain should be fed
whole and unprepared except to poul-
try and sheep. Each of these have so
strong digestive organs that, unless
overfed, they will get as much good
from grain fed whole as they would
after 1t had been ground. But for
other stock, and especially for horses
and hogs. neither of which are rumi.
nants, grain should be ground and
mixed with some coarser feed, so that
it will not cloy the stomach. Working
horses especially need ground feed.
The best mixture is corn and oats
ground together, and mixed with cut
clover hay slightly moistened SO that
the meal will stick to it. The horses
will chew this. mixing their saliva
through it before it passes to the
stomach. Food thus prepared digests
quickly aud Iiuch more perfectly than
it could in tho form ~ whole grain.
The fner the division the better the
digestive juices a get at the nutri-
ton and utilize it.

PUMPKINS ARE EXCELLENT.

Pumpkins r excellent food foi
cattle, hogs and chickens. Such 0
change Of diet is beneficial and profit.
able in toning up the system and say.
ing more solid and costly fooda. They
can DO grown very cheaply, for one
field will produce a crop of corn and
pumpkins at the same time. The Con.
necticnt field pumpkin is especially
adapted to growing in corn, and there
is nothing to prevent every farmer
having so to 100 and more loads every
year. There, is little extra work in
planting them just n few days before
the corn is plowed the first time.
When they r mature, haul out to
the pasture or hog lot and break while
unloading. Either hogs or cattle will
eat them and it will surprise you to
see the quantity consumed and the
benefit derived.

THE QUEEN OF GREECE.

It is said by a lady who recently
visited Greece and had the honor Of
meeting the royal family, that perfect
harmony exists between them, and the
King and Queen are devoted to their
children. The Queen is still a very
beautiful woman, and the only lady
admiral in the world. She holds this
rank in the Russian army. an honor
airy appointment conferred upon her
by the late Gear, because her father
held the rank of high admiral, and
Tor the reason that she is a very capi-
tai yachtswoman. The King has a
very remarkable memory, an interest
ing personality. and is q brilliant con-
versationalist. He goes about the
streets Of Athens without any attend
ants, and talks with any friend he
chances to meet. Prince George is
very attractive, and his feats of
strength, shown often in the cause of
chivalry, are a continuous subject of
conversation among the people.

LARGE wA1srs rAsn1oNApLr.

Large waists are said to be coming
in fashion again, but %curiously enough
it seems to be the aim Of all dress
makers and tailors to give the long
slender lines and as small a waist as it
is possible with any breathing power,
and the lines of braid on some of the
new jackets are most cleverly ar
ranged to taper in at the waist and
broaden out oyer the shoulders. To
be tightly screwed into a waist a
jacket does not make the figure any
smaller, a fact it would be we'll for
all women to know, and a good fit,
which makes any one look smart, al
ways gives plenty of room over the
bust, and is only tight at and below
the true waist line.-Ssn Francisco
