Distension and rupture of the stom-
ach usually arise from too much food
imperfectly masticated, or from the
horse being put to collar work imme-
diately after heavy meal. The symp-
toms are abdominal pain, eructations of
gas and food, fetid breath, profuse per-
spiration, cold legs and ears and great
prostration. The animal sits on it's
launches like dog. The treatment n
the former disease) consists in diffus-
able stimulants such as ether, ammo
MIA, oil of turpentine, whichever is near
est at hand, always given in linseed oil,
accompanied with brisk rubbing with
a brush or wisp of straw over the ab-
domen and enemas of warm water and
soap by the rectum. If the latter dis
ease no treatment is of any avail.-Prai-

AMONG THE POULTRY.

The hen that is a good layer is nearly
always an early riser.
Always use small, active, vigorous
male in preference to large one.
Turkeys are very fond of milk and
may be given all that they will drink.
Eggs turned once a week will keep
much longer than those left undis-
turbed.
Young ducks drink water very often
when eating. They should be plentiful
ly supplied.
Never keep breeding birds over four
years old when younger ones can read
lily be procured.
Large males bred on small hens are
apt to produce long-legged fowls that
are not always desirable.
So far as can be done, the pullets that
are to be kept as layers should be from
the best hens in the flock
While turkeys and geese are profita-
BILE fowls to keep, they require plenty
of room. They should not be kept un-
less free range can be given.
When the hens scour speedy remedy
is to feed powdered chalk in the soft
food; but the pest regulator of the
bowels is Il greater variety of food.
Gapes are really the result of certain
conditions of the soil that are favorable
to their propagation. They prevail
mostly on old farms that have been
occupied by poultry for some time

tion pure and simple, and politics will
not be discussed by either host OF
guest.
1t is possible that some ill-mannered
individual may attempt to draw out"
the admiral, but the effort will prove
futile, for Dewey is made of different
stuff than the unfortunate Capt. Cogh-
Ian who. under the influence of rich
dinner, permitted his tongue 10 run
away with his judgment. Nothing will
occur to mar the harmony of the great
reception which is destined to go down
in history as the most magnificent pop
ular tribute which n nation ever paid to
a hero. Saxon and Celt, Teuton and
Gaul, made one by their allegiance TO
the stars and stripes, will work united
ly to show to the world that as far as
the recognition of a great public service
is concerned there is no such thing as
factional or sectional feeling in the
United States. All Europe will watch
New York's greeting to Dewey, and to
that extent his homecoming is an
event of international Importance, one
that will teach a lesson more far-rcach-
ing than newspaper gibes or oratorical
bombast.
1t is pleasant to turn from politics to
art, and still more pleasant to note that
the National Sculpture society, of
which ]. Q. A. Ward is chairman, has
volunteered TO design triumphal
Dewey arch, to be erected at Madison
square, free of cost, although, the pro-
fessional services of the artists engaged
in the work represent an equivalent of
from $15O,OOO to 100000.
The arch is to be supplemented by .
| line of columns, enriched with sculp-
lures. The arch itself is similar in gen-
eral design to the great Roman memoir
ial arches, particularly the arch OF
Titus. Its four great piers will have
bas-relief decorations, and at their
bases are to be large allegorical groups,
personifying Patriotism, War, The Re.
turn and Peace. The finals of the col.
umns, on either side of the allegorical
groups mentioned, are to be portrait

FLAVOR REGULATED.
Up-to-Dnte Beekeepers Have Learned
to Restrict the Wnndcrings
of Their Bees.

Honey is enjoying renewed favor.
Men of wealth and leisure are testing
and experimenting with the different
kinds of honey, and wrinkling their
brows over the problem of producing
what seems to them the most desirable
flavor during the comingsummer, says
the Otsego Farmer. For the bee is'no
longer allowed to pursue his own sweet
peregrinations and sip of the nectar of
flowers wherever he chooses. Honey
made in this promiscuous way is much
too ordinary. His actions are restrict
ed and guided. AS a result, such honey
as never was tasted before is tickling
the palates of many. If it is the white
sweet clover flavor that has gained
favor with the epicure, he goes system
atically to work to produce it, and
plants large plot of ground, perhaps
half an acre with this particular kind
of clover. He has it carefully kept from
weeds or any other variety of clover
that might endeavor to find footing
there. The whole bed is inclosed and
rooted with fine wire netting, and the
beehives are then placed within the in
closure. From the bees life, therefore,
the spice of variety is pluclIed, and try
as he will he can produce none other
than white sweet clover honey. In
flavor it is very delicate and almost
white in color. Yellow sweet clover
honey is preferred by others. The
flavor is slightly stronger than that
made from the white variety, and its
color is deep yellow. Then there is the
honey that is made from thistles and
milliweeds; it is amusing to hear the
producers of such favors tell of their
tribulations in making these wayward
plants grow within their restrictions.
Some of the wild flower honey is al
most black in color, and the flavor is
certainly very different from what it
was in the days when honey was hon
ey and that fact settled the question.
1t is almost verging on the indiscreet
to mention buckwheat honey nova
days, although it is still acknowledged
to have wonderful staying properties"

These stalls are simply boards five

the pigs out of the trough and from
wasting the feed, and at the same time
keep them from crowding and fighting.

tell him that in spite of sensational
newspaper correspondents, who would
make monkey of the lion, the people
have an abiding faith in his common
sense and his judgment of men and af-
fairs. And all this homage will not
turn his head, for Dewey is true
American who believes in the people
and who knows that charlatanism and
offensive jingoism are not American
and that yellow journalism does not
represent anything that is ennobling
or commendable in our national life.
There is considerable speculation in
~sertain circles as to what the admiral
will say in reply to Mayor Van Wyck's
address of welcome, whether he will
declare himself for or against the an
nexation of the Philippines or say
anything of his relations with the Ger
man admiral in Mauila bay. All such
speeulations are ridiculous. Mayor
Van Wyck will greet Dewey as the vic
tor of Manila, as the annihilator of the
Spanish fleet in the Pacific, as shin
ing example of American bravery and
tact. He will, of this am certain, re-
fer in no way to the political aspect of
the Philippine problem; and the admir-
ais reply will be equally guarded. The
reception will be public demorsTa-

WHEN DEWEY COMES.
Great Preparations Now Being Made
by New York City.
rhe AdmIrnps Reception VIII Sur
pnss in Grandeur Anything in
American History-Grent
TrIumDhnI Arch.
Especial New York Letter.1

New York is going to outdo itself in
welcoming Admiral Dewey upon his
return TO his native land. In way
New York, admit, is a slow town, but
when once its people resolve to do a
thing they do it right
Dewey has been long time coming.
He has given Mayor Van Wyck and the
festival committee enough time to pre-
pare for big display; and the gentle
mem in charge of the celebration have
taken advantage of the delay.
To mention even the prominent fea-
lures of the public reception, which is
to begin on or about September 2, would
be quite a task. If Admiral Dewey
participates in but third of the cere-
monies, dinners and banquets prepared
for him, and survives the ordeal, his
achievements at Manila will pale into
insignificance. OF course, Admiral
Dewey will not attempt to partake of
all the hospitality offered him, but the
mere possibility of his being here and
there will attract hundreds of thou
sands of strangers.
Every great public event, don't you
know, has a business side. Big crowds
mean big sales of merchandise, fat in
comes for merchants, restaurateurs
and saloonkeepers. Local pride has
no doubt something to do with the lib
erality displayed by the business com
munity in connection with the Dewey
celebration, but self-interest, to para
phrase Count Boni de Castallane, i:
'more than 30 per cent" Dewey will

boards 2La inches from floor to let feed
through; b, bottom-boards 12 or 16
inches wide, and so placed. as to let feed
slide down into trough. One end is re-
moved to show interior. Ties to keep
from spreading can be placed any
where, as indicated by dotted lines.
Stalls should reach down to floor and
be nailed thereto and also nailed to
side-boards. This stiffens side-boards.
This box is my own invention, having
never seen one before. 1 think this
will be plain and will need no further
explanation.
/ find this box sufficient to feed 90
pigs, with no trouble. OF course only
&c can eat at a time, but they soon fall
back and others take their places. 1
find this very good where pigs of differ
ent sizes run together. They all have
all the chance they want to eat, and the
food is never mussed over, but always
fresh, for it feeds down only as fast as
it is eaten away.
We do not fill the box full and then
go off on vacation, but are with the
pigs several times day. We also have
a self-feeder made out of salt barrel,
with a hole cut near the bottom, This
is to feed salt and ashes mixed, one of
salt to two of ashes. We have not self
drinker yet, but would like to have one.
We have to carry water and let them
drink from trough. This is the only
reason we cannot go on vacation trip.
Now l would not advise feeding clear
corn from the feeder, for one would
certainly overdo the thing and bad re-
suits would follow. But 1 have seen
only good results from middlings and
bran, and see no reason yet for abandon
ing the self-feeder.
My neighbor made one of these
boxes, and he tells me he is confident
it added $25 to the value of his hogs, be-
sides lessening the work. l think
stated that Il did not know whether this
was the best way, but knew it was the
easier way. Do not condemn this until
you try it. We made ours in half day.

A Fnble in Stocks.

Once, upon a time an operator in stocks
was sold short, and ruin stared him in the
face unless the market should break. In his
that honesty is the best policy He tried to
dismiss the foolish thought, but in vain.
Finally, like the drowning man catching at
the straw, he resolved to try being honest
The very next day he put his design into ex-
ecution, and he hadn't been honest more
than 10 minutes when II of the leading bulls
fell dead, they were so surprised at him.
Hereupon the market naturally broke, and
the operator could get all the stocks he
wanted at his own figure. 1t is claimed that
some, if not all, of these bulls had taken
radishes and ham for breakfast, but that, it
is submitted, does not destroy the moral of
this fable.-Detroit .Inurnnl

figures, from eight to twelve feet high,
of famous American admirals and naval
officers. The committee of the Sculp-
ture society wrote TO Secretary of the
Navy Long to suggest the names of
eight heroes who he thought would
most fittingly represent the navy. In
reply he suggested John Paul Jones,
representing the war of the revolutions;
Decatur, Hull, Perry and MacDonough,
representing the war of 1912, and Far
ragut, Porter and Cushing, represent
ing the civil war.
The spandrils over the main entrance,
on the north and south sides, arc to have
bas-reliefs symbolizing the Atlantic
and Pacific oceans on one side and the
North and East rivers on the other,
thus" to quote from the committees
report, "to emphasize New York's posi-
ton as the most important commercial
city of the country" The two keystones
of the arch are to be surmounted by
great American eagles, which will prob
ably be gilded.
Above the wings of the eagles shall, it
is suggested, be placed inscriptions, to
be chosen by the celebration commit
tee, in recognition of the services of
Admiral Dewey. A novel feature of the
design is quadriga of sea horses, draw
ing ship, surmounting the apex of
| the arch. At the PROV of this ship
| stands a figure, symboiizing Triumphal
Victory, with outstretched wings. This
is one of the most striking portions of
| the entire structure.
The large surfaces above the minor
arches on the west and east sides of the
ediice are to be covered with designs
in high relief, the subjects of which
have not yet been definitely chosen, but
for which allegories of 1.-The Protection
| of Our Country" and "The Advance
ment of Civilization" are suggested.
AS for the large sculptured groups to be
placed at either end of the colonnade,
four in all, the committee suggests
some such subjects as "The Army" and
"The Navy for one end and The West
Indies" and "The East Indies" for the
other.
A suggestion has been made that ar
rangements should be perfected with
one of the gas companies 10 have the
columns of the colohnade topped with
tlamhegu lights, and similar lights af-
fixed to the corners of the cornice of the
arch. while the arch itself should be il
l'Im:nated with electric lights.
The arch is to be built of the same
material as that used in the gorgeous
decoration of the Chicago exposition,
! which, as experiences has proved, is
capable of withstanding the elements
FOR at least year. The actual erection
of the arch will occupy month, this
time of course not including the work
on the bas-reliefs and groups, which is
already begun.
No feature of the Dewey celebration,
it is safe to say, will leave more lasting
impression than this great work of
American art, and none will be prized
more highly by the admiral who, since
childhood, has been admirer of beauti-
full things.
