How to Buy a Horse.

II you want to buy a horse, take no
mans word for IT. Your eye is our market.
Don't buy horse In harness. Unhitch
him and take everything off but the halter,
and lead him around, If he has any
failing, you can see it Let him 60 him
self away, and if he walks right into any
thing you know he is blind No matter
how clear and bright his eyes are he can't
see any more than a bat. Back him too.
Some horses show their weakness or tricks
in that way when they don't in any other.
But, be as smart as you can, you'll get
caught sometimes. Even the experts get
stuck. A horse may look ever so nice,
and 60 great pace and yet have fits.
There isn't a man who could tell it until
something happens Or he may have a
weak back. Give him the whip and off he
goes for mile or two then all of sudden
he stops on the road After a rest he
starts again, but soon stops for good, and
nothing but derrick can start him. =

Keep the Meadow Clean.

Briers. bushes and weeds really have no
place in the meadows or cultivated fields,
and their growth should be carefully kept
down. Every farmer ought to have some
sort of rotation of crops for his land and
of kind that experience teaches him is
best for his purposes. But even with
this, from various causes, special work
will need to be done from time to time.
1t is desirable to have the best possible
returns from the moving fields, and as the
crop was being secured it was quite easy to
note what particular places or fields
peeded most attention. There are some
portions of the meadows on most farms
that it is rather difficult to pillow and cult
vate bu, yet with proper treatment can be
made TO produce excellent crops of hay.
If these can be made smooth for the har-
vesting machinery and good sward Sc
cured they can be keep in condition for a
long time with blowing by frequent top
dressings of manure Farm Meas.

Roup.

One of the most dreaded diseases
among poulty is that of roup, which
usually begins with cold All fowls are
subject to colds, as well as humanity, and
should have the same attention that we
give to ourselves; for should we neglect
to apply remedy when We take cold the
result might be quite serious. The same
will be applicable in case your fowls take
cold. which may be brough about in
numerous ways, viz: roosting in damp
quarters. cold draughts of air. The
affected fowl should be removed and
placed in dry coop. Cleanse the dis,
charge from the air passages every day
and battle the head and throat in
kerosene every day The small syringe
sold for the purpose by the supply houses
is convenient Severe cases should be
fed with soft food. Only valuable fowls
are worth spending much time to cure.

HOG CHOLERA REMEDY.

Dir. snlmon's successfui Use of linz
mune serum.
After experiments extending over a
period of 20 years. and the expenditure Of
many thousands of dollars the United
States government is at last comb batting
successfully those most pernicious dis
eases, hog cholera and swine plague.
The results obtained by the bureau Of
animal industry Of the agricultural de-
partment, especially during the last
year, have been highly satisfactory, and
the scientists who have devoted so much
time and labor to the work feel amply
repaid for their efforts.
The discovery of a serum which rem
ders hogs immune from the ravages of
cholera and p ague is an important one.
1t means great deal to one of the fore
most American industries, and the bene
Fl tie arising from it are almost inoal-
oulable. The propagation of the serum
requires the use of many animals At

made, there are donkeys, COWS, calves,
mules and horses, all patiently submit

Potatoes will keep best at low tenn
perature, a little above freezing. Many
potatoes are spoiled by being kept in too
warm place during the early fall and late
spring. They should be kept in dry
place. If 1t will keep dry, a deep cellar is
preferable for the reason that lit is more
likely to have a low uniform temperature,
and will not be reduced to freezing
temperature so readily as more shallow
ones. The bins in potato cellar should
not be too large. A 900 bushel bin
should be the largest size used. Smaller
ones would suit better. Slated floors
for the bins and Slated walls between the
bins, which allow the air to pass around
them, are better than close walls or
floors The circulation of air which they
allow keeps the potatoes dry and prevents
heating. 1t is not a good plan to put
potatoes in the cellar as they are dug. 1t
is better to put them in pits in the field
until the weather gets cold enough to
freeze the ground few inches deep. In
pit,ing them temporarily, if the ground
is wet, pu, the potatoes in a conical pile
on the surface, but, if the ground is dry
dig shallow pit for them and use the dirt
out OF it for covering. After the potatoes
have been placed in an even conical pile
cover them with layer of pea or other
straw about four inches thick and then
cover them with from three to five inches
of dirt. In such pit potatoes will keep
we'll through severe frost.--Fayming.

A Clever Trick.

1t certainly looks like it, but there is
really no trick about it. Anybody can
try it who has lame back and weak kid
neys, malaria or nervous troubles. We
mean he can cure himself right away by
taking Electric Bitters. This medicine
tones up the whole system, acts as a
stimulent to the liver and kidneys, is a
blood purifier and nerve tonic. 1t cures
constipation, headache, fainting spells,
sleeplessness and melancholy. 1t Is
purely vegetable, a mild laxative, and
restores the system to its natural vigor.
Try Electric Bitters and be convinced
that they are miracle worker. Every
bottle guaranteed. Only 500. a bottle at
c. w. Folsom's Drug Store.

Fatteuing Sheep.

Results of trials at the Wisconsin sta
ton declare corn to be the most profit
able grain for fattening sheep. but it was
found also that the other grains must be
fed with it to maintain. the appettes of
the sheep and to keep them healthy
The most successful practice was to start
the fattening with oats or bran, then
introduce as much corn as possible. and
finish the fattening process with mixture
of one part oats, one part linseed meal
and three parts corn by weight.
