Clipping the Horse.

It might be thought that clipping would have a tendency to increase the risk of colds and chest diseases in the horse. Such, however, Is not the case; on the contrary, it reduces the proba- bility of such affections. The greatest sufferers are those that, after 3 hard days work, are brought into the stable wet with precipitation or from rain, and having heavy coat of hair, take con- siderable time to dry, notwithstanding careful dressing, a performance which is too generally neglected. To thor oughly dry horse in such condition is too hard work to please most grooms, consequently the horse gets 8 chill, and his respiratory organs become affected. 4 clipped horse is readily dried, and when afterwards clothed, passes the night comfortably, and is not so liable to catch cold" as the horse that rests in coat damp, if not sodden, with per spiration or rain. Clipped horses should always be well clothed when not at work, and especial care should be taken to preserve the temDerature of the skin for the first few days after they have undergone the operatiOn of having their natural hairy covering reduced by the ciiDper-Portlfnd fEsear eos'ir,t

Removing Com TasseIs.

We have never believed that 1t would pay to detassel corn in order to save the plant vigor and strength required to perfect the male blossom. It would in the first place involve too much labor, and we could never see that the stalks from which tassels had been removed were any more prolific than others. What used to be known as topping corn. which means cutting off all above the ear, Is certain injury to the crop. It used to be done to let the sun reach the ear. But the ear needed all the foliage that the stalk was deprived of in order to perfect Its grain. Besides, It has long been recognized that these thin toppings of corn have far less sweetness and nutrition than has the larger part of the stalk below them. At caring time the richest part of the stalk will be the middle, and as close to the ear as possible. Give cow a cornstalk and she will always begin in the mid de. eating both ways till she comes to less nutrition. and casting out the butt and top ends as not suited to her taste. Exchange.

Two DaredeviIs in Action

 The challenger accordingly walked up to the shell, lighted his pipe and then deliberately stamped his foot upol the fuse to extinguish it. His comrade who was close at his elbow, now burs into an amazing fit of passion, blamin; him by all the saints ill the calendar not for winning the wager, but for put ting out the fuse before he had lightet his own pipe.-Weekly Telegraph.

Oats and Peas for soiIinc.

Excepting clover there is no better soiling crop than mixture of oats and peas cut green. It can be sown much earlier than corn, and will be in condi- ton long before corn is ready to cut for green fodder. The pea vines also make it better ration than green corn at it's best, as they supply the nitrogenous element in which corn is deficient, But as the main sOiling crop corn will al- ways have the preference, as more can be grown of it per acre than of the peas and oats. By sowing successively until the middle of May, oats and peas can be kept in best condition for soiling until corn fodder has got into tassel. But the latest s0wn oats and peas should all be used for green fodder as the excess of nitrogen sn tt.- Ann will

Pear RIipht.

Pear blight Is one of those plant dis eases that has been exhaustively stu died and its exact nature fully demon strated, and yet it has left us precisely where we were before as respects reme- dial measures. In a word, the only remedy when blight has stricken a branch is to cut well below the affected part and burn 1t: if the whole tree seems affected, to dig it out and burn it. am not aware that any specific applications are of any use except as they may promote more uniform and healthy development of the tree, thus giving Ii greater resistance and making 1t less susceptible to the attack of the blight bacterium. ' Fs..Icularlv should undue stimulation e rank fertilizers be avoided. since they induce extraordi- ne ry growth which Is liable to be soft ard soongy, and often unreasonable. running into fall when the tree should be hardening the seasons growth. The Seckel pear has the reputation of be- ing one of the most resistant varieties but it Is not proof by any means. as your correspondent has testified,
 Blight varies somewhat in different years. The reasons for this are un- known, but appear to be due to more favorable weather conditions some sea- sons than others. Discouraging as pear culture Is, owing to the insidious char acter of blight, it will pay to watch trees carefully for the first appearance of disease, to cultivate, prune and care for them lly.-Germantown Telegraph,

Sitting Hens.

On no account should hens be al- lowed to sit in the henhouse during the warm season. It Is too dry place at any time for healthful development it is particularly objectionable, because yermin are sure to breed in the hen house if a hen is sitting there night and day for three weeks. When a hen at this season steals her nest and makes it on the ground the moisture which will rise through the soil invig crates the chick and enables 1t to peck Its way to the outer world, instead of becoming exhausted and dying in its shell.
