Harmonious AIatlngs.

In selecting a stallion Tor the ap.
preaching breeding season considera-
ton must be given to what is called
harmonious mating, says Texas Stock
and Farm Journal. The sire and the
dam should be of similar type. nyour
mare have been bred to draft stations
it would be better to continue breed
ing to stations of that class. Most OF
the Fares in Texas, however, are bet
ter adapted to breeding to the stand
ard-bred horse and will give better re-
suits from such breeding. The foun-
dation stock may have little quality or
value, but a good and generally useful
type can be developed the most quickly
by the use of registered standardized
sires of individual merit. It takes pa
thence, but If the improvement is to be
effected at all the breeding should COM
mence this season. The advantages
resulting from it will be worth the
time and expense given to the progress
of evolving a valuable crop Of colts.
Cheese Spoiled in Curing.-Many .
well-made cheese is spoiled in the cur
ing room. Too many makers pay too
little attention to the curing OF their
cheese. Much of the success is at
tributable to proper care of the cheese
after reaching the curing room. Shelves
should be kept clean and should be
fat and level and not warped out OF
shape. A uniform temperature is de-
sirable, and the maker who allows the
temperature of the curing room to
vary from 40 to so degrees will never
succeed in turning out fine favored
cheese. A stove or some artificial heat
is needful in the curing room, even In
hot weather. Plenty of sO-called ell
bow grease is also an essential to fine
appearing and clean, bright cheese

Live Stock Values.-The magnitude
Of the live stock interests in this couh-
try is shown by the fact tina: the total
value of farm animals on January /,
1899, was $2,215, 053, 900. The highest
point ever reached by this value was
$780,. 050. 900. in 1889. The depression
In these values began in 1892 and
reached the lowest point Of s.. 800. 49,
600 in 1896, making a decline of fully
Is per cent. The upward tendency in
values began in 1896 and has contin-
ued ever since until now 10 per cent
Of the Is per cent Of shrinkage has
been recovered. This leaves 6 per cent
Of that shrinkage still to be recovered

Keep Horses Managers Clean.-Much
dust and soiled food is apt to accumu-
late in the horses manager, and as he
is all the time breathing over it, the
manger quickly becomes so offensive
that much food is wasted Much Of
this feed will, however, be eaten by
cattle, as they will eat freely after
horses. Even the horse excrement is
not SO offensive to them as to prevent
them from picking out bits of hay
mixed with it. But the horse has a
more delicate taste than any other
farm animal except a sheep. When
cows pick over the piles of horse ma
nure for the hay they are probably in
need of salt, and are attracted by the
saline taste of horse urine.-Ex.

OTIS REVIEWS THE WAR.
Com mander OF the American Forces
Reports ON Ope ration. in the
PHILIPPINES.

Washington, Dec. 4.-The report of
Gen. Otis on operations in the Philip
pines up to August 81 last has been
made public by the war department. It
is volume of 273 pages, with an ap-
pendix of minor reports almost as large.
The report is chronological recapitu-
lation of events in the islands since Gen.
Otis took command. One of the most
interesting features is the immense
amount of detail involved in Gen. Otis
administration of the affairs of the is
land. Gen. Otis throws some light on
his Chinese exclusion act, declaring it a
matter of public policy. He says the
step was taken to avoid the rioting and
bloodshed that was con tinuaIly brea king
out between the races. In concluding
his report Gen. Otis says that it may
prove fortunate that Aguinaldo's in
surrection was not stamped out in
stanter upon its inception. He says that
the natives have had chance to see the
difference between American and ma
tive methods of government, and his
opinion Is that they will gladly submit
to the former as soon as they can be
protected from the latter.
