THE HORSES HOOPS.
Is You Want Healthy Animals Keep
Their Feet Ensped or and
Level as Possible.

Have you good rasp for the feet of
the colts? The old saying mo foot,
no horse" is not only a true one, but
should teach the farmer to take the
best of care of the feet of all colts.
SAYS a writer in Austraasian. The
toe often gets too long, unbalances
the foot, and then come splints, spav-
ms and every other disease to which
the feet and legs are heir. See that
the foot is kept rasped off and Level.
Do not use a knife if it can be helped,
as the first blacksmith that shoes the
colt will cut away enough to last a
lifetime. In no part of the horses
anatomy has he suffered SO many
wrongs or endured SO much unneces-
sary suffering as in his feet. If there
is the least excuse every blacksmith
will use knife. Try to let the colts
grow up with such good strong feet
that there will be no excuse for cut
ting them. Use the rasp on the under.
side of the toe, and under no circum.
stances put the rasp on the outside OF
the foot. The entire hoof, from the
coronet to the sole, is covered by q
fine coating of natural varnish be.
ginning at the upper margin or coro
net and gradually becoming thinner
as it descends. Under cover of thi:
varnish the new horn is secreted an6
protected until it attains its maturity
The moisture necessary by the ANNA
economy to the perfection of the horn
is retained within it, and the infu
ences of wet and dry are set at def
ance. 1t is easy to see that this mos
important covering should not be in
terfered with, and the foot should b,
kept level and in good shape from tn
underside.

HALLOWEEN SPORTS.
Some Old and New and Perfectly
Harmless Charms for Fun-LOvinE
Maid and Youth.

"The best place for such a merry.
making is an oldfashioned attic
which extends the entire length of the
house." advises Ruth Virginia Sackett
when writing of Halloween Amuse-
ments" in the Woman's Home Com
panion. THE room should be lighted
by candies, some burning in Jack-o'-
lanterns having as grotesque and
ghostly faces as il is possible to make,
and others under bright shades. Let
the decorations consist of autumn
leaves and festoons of nuts; and it is
really more enjoyable not to have the
refreshments served in the usual way,
but instead to have the fruit. nuts,
candies and cider arranged in fancy
dishes everywhere about the room, so
that every one can help himself at any
time he wishes. Remember that for
this evening formality is to be laid
aside, and that the more nonsense the
more fun. When apples are eaten,
save the seeds. so that you can try the
'apple-seed trick of sticking an apple
seed on each eyelid and naming each
seed. The person whose name is given
to the seed that sticks the longest
will stick to you through life. Put
three candles at an open window, each
candle named for a sweetheart, and
then watch and see which will puff
out first, and show fickleness, and
which will flicker and flicker in the
breeze, and yet burn brightly the next
moment, showing the one who will
ever remain faithful.
'Instead of the Halloween custom
of suspending an apple by a string
hang a'number of popcorn-balls, al
many as there are guests, and at g
given signal let each try to eat hi.
corn without once touching his hand
to it. No one can imagine how hare
it is until he has made the attempt;
and no one can do it with a sober face
As the guests bid the hostess adieu, lei
her present them with five bay-leaves
with the request that before retiring
they pin them on their pillow, one OF
each corner and one in the middle
giving some name of the opposite Sc,
to every leaf. The one of whom tn,
sleeper dreams is the destined wife O.
husband"

NOTES FOR BEEKEEPERS.

Granulated sugar viii crystalline if
not thoroughly melted
Hives should be painted as often at
least as every two years.
The best packing for chaff hives is a
good quality of wheat chaff.
Bees cannot be fed sirups of any kind
after cold weather sets in.
Roofs of hives of whatever kind
should be painted every fall.
In making comb money the main de-
pendence is on the first swarms.
Generally a natural swarm is ready
for business as soon as it is hived.
Agood and convenient lighting place
should be provided for every swarm.
Thorough ripening is of more impor-
lance to honey than the color of it.
Some absorbing material should al
ways be used over the bees in winter.
Honey is not a perishable article.
Do not be in too great hurry &c sell.
Now is good time to spread coal
ashes around the hive, especially in
front.
Every colony Of bees which does not
contain fertile queen is in danger of
being robbed.
Arrange the bees IN good season in
the fall so that during the winter there
will be no occasion for disturbing
them.
When once graduated it will remain
in this condition, SO that to thoroughly
melt it it must be heated almost to
boiling.
1t is a mistake to close the entrance
and every crack and crevice through
the winter. With strong colony leave
the entrance open.-St. Louis Repub-

the structure nail some 1x3 strips or
any old boards that are handy. Over
this structure the straw stack is built,
and when finished has the appearance
as ahown in Figure 2. In this way a
snug shelter of considerable size can
be made beneath the stack, under
which cattle, sheep or hogs can take
refuge in stormy weather. The poles
can remain, if necessary, from year to
year. If taken down, it can be rear
ranged in short time, just before
thrashing is done. Such an archway
shelter will not be out of place in many
well-kept barnyard.-Charles H.

HOW TO DRESS FOWLS.
CareIessness In Thi. Respect Causes
Considerable Loss to Growers
and shippers.

A well-dressed fowl will of course
command higher price than poor
addressed one, and 1t is evident there
must be quite loss to the growers ana
shippers of poultry on this account;
and it might not come amiss to give
few hints on dressing fowls properly,
as there does not seem TO be any need
of dressing them poorly. First of all,
crops of all fowls to be killed for mar
ket should be entirely empty. A mis-
take is generally made by not nang-
ing the fowl up while stripping or
the feathers, but holding it with one
hand and picking it with the other.
One can work rapidly when the bird
is hanging, as both hands are then at
liberty; the cuticle, transparent out
side covering of the fowl, is very easily
injured, particularly of a scalded bird.
and when the bird is held while pick
ing it this membrane is often rubbed
off in spots; and although this Injury
does not seem to show much at first
afterwards these spots turn dark. Civ
ing the bird an unsightly appearance.
0verscalding also loosens the cuticle:
therefore we should exercise great
care not to keep the birds in hot water
for too long time when scalding
them. Have the water at the boiling
point, yet not actually boiling. Take
the bird by the head and feet and i'm
merse it, lifting up and down in the
water three or four times, then hang
up by the feet. The head should never
be immersed, as it turns the comb pale
and gives the eyes shrunken appear
ance. Now remove all the feathers,
letting the small ones drop into the
barrel beneath and keeping wing and
tail feathers by themselves. The small
feathers may afterward be spread out
and dried if deemed of value The feet
of all fowls should be scrupulously
clean; wash, or, still better, brush
them.-Western Plowman.

POULTRY DISEASES.
They Are More Easily Exterminatcd
Than the Diseases Affecting
Other Kinds of stock.

1t is probably easier to exterminats
poultry diseases than the diseases that
affect any other kind of stock. This
is because poultry can be kept iso-
lated. Horses are constantly meeting
and coming into the vicinity of other
horses. Cattle run in adjoining pas
lures. Hogs are transported from
place to place and are great roamers
in their pastures. But fowls may be
kept practically isolated. 1t is even
not common for hens on one farm to
mingle with those of the next.
We believe that with proper man
agement the poultry diseases may be
practically exterminated. Have the
feed right and then keep all things
scrupulously clean. Let in the sun
and keep the dust box full of good
dust. Give fresh water every day.
These will mean that the hens will be
free from disease. We're these things
observed universally there is no doubt
that some, if not all, of our contagious
diseases among poultry must soon die
out. Where flock has certain dis
ease the fowls could be allowed to die
or be killed and the place where they
had been kept used for keeping fowls
no more for at least a year. 1t is our
observation that there are many flocks
where disease is practically unknown.
A good many poutrymen know moth
ing of the cholera except what they
read in the papers. Clean up and ex-
terminate the diseases.-Farmers' Re.

/. 1t consists of two pens of the or
binary sort, for the bottom of small
stacks. Place near enough together
so that an archway of poles can be
made between them. The lower ends
of the poles are set short distance in
the ground, resting near the middle
one, the top rail of the pen crossing its
neighbor pole from the other pen, and
fastened to it with a bolt at the top,
and also to the sides with wire. Over

CHEAP STOCK SHELTER.
Archwny Under or Through n straw
stack Is an Inexpensive Device
for Protection.

To keep stock warm and dry in cold
weather is no less matter of economy
than to keep them well fed. When
properly sheltered they require less
food. Shelter is less expensive than
food. All farmers and stock rai&ers do
not have stables for their cattle or
snug sheds for their sheep. Sheds OF
poles with roofs of straw are oxclu-
sively used, and with profit. An arch
way shelter under or through a straw
stack is an inexpensive and valuable de-
vice for protection. The skeleton
frame of such one is given in Figure

and was not at all backward in picking
UP the hay and dainties which were
brought out to Bob by his human
friends. The other day falAe step
of Bob ended the existence of the
happy family and caused sorrow to
pervade the neighborhood. In making
room for his master to enter the stall
Bob knocked Mob from her perch on
his back and she fell to the floor. The
next moment Bob had stepped square
" on her back. Mob gave pitiful cry
and died. For some time Bob did not
seem to realize what had happened.
He listened for the familiar "purr"
and "meouw." They did not come.
When he finally understood, he refused
to eat his meal of soft mash. Two
hours later Bob was dead-dead, they
say, from broken heart. Hob had
been out of doors adding territory to
his owner by Astounding and abut-
ting" and entered the barn with a
merry frisk of his short tail. When he
beheld the forms of his two dear friends
he stopped with a suddenness that
sent him back on his launches.
After assuring himself that they
were certainly dead, he walked slow
ly back of the barn and lay down
lie moancd pitifully and refused to
notice the people who came to sympa,
thize with him in his misery.
In spite of the best efforts of vet
Urinary surgeon, who was hastily sum
moned, Hob died, and the three old
friends were no more. If Hob and Boz
did not die of broken hearts, what
did they die of?-N. Y. World.

1t may seem one of the simplest of
all farm operations to cut and put
standing corn in stock. Yet in every
field where five or six men are work
ing together in cutting, close observ-
er will note that some rows of stocks
show the corn cut low down, with very
little breaking off of ears, and even
the suckers well cleaned up around the
hills, while other rows of stocks will
show the reverse of these conditions.
1t is, therefore, really skilled labor
that the expert i'll, corn cutting shows,
and we believe that the expert in this
case, as in every other. is entitled to
larger compensation for the skill with
which the work has been done.
