Much Experience Required and Many
Things IIave Co lie Considered.
To distinguish merely between tho
young horse and the old. II Ia only
necessary to remember few salient
facts. The FIRST Is that the milk teeth
are present In the horses mouth until
he Is between and years old. The
second fact Is that the mark" or
dark central depression on the surface
OF the incisors becomes gradually worn
out. and In a horse over s years old
has nearly always disappeared from
the teeth Of the lower jaw. The third
fact Is that the shape OF the tooth IL
much wider from side to side than
Il In from front to back. Aa the horse
becomes older the surface becomes pro-
gressively narrower. from side TO side.
and thus. instead OF remaining always
oblong. II becomes triangular. and
then In very old animals fiattened from
side to side. In young horses. then.
we Judge the age by observing which
OF the milk teeth are present, and
which have been replaced by perma-
the milk teeth and the permanent. re-
member that the milk teeth are SMALL
or. whittier, and have a distinct neck.
Until colt IA over 2 years old his
teeth are all milk teeth. and the age
In estimated from the amount OF wear
shown ON the crowns OF the teeth. Do
tween aud 3 the FIRST OF the perma-
nent teeth make their appearance. and
push out the middle two teeth In both
upper and lower jaws. A horse Ia
said to be years old when these CEN
trail permanent incisora are fully In
wear. During the next summer tho
second pair Of permanent teeth appear.
and when they are fully grown and In
wear the horse Is years old. Boz
tween 4 and the last pair makes ita
appearance, and now the horse has
what Is called full mouth. So far
both mares and horses are alike. but
at or near years old tho CANNES. or
"tuahes." appear In the male sex only.
Up TO the end OF this period the de-
lively easy matter. and any one who
In at all obaeryant can readily give the
age OF horses by looking at their teeth.
After a full mouth Ii attained II Ia a
more difiicult matter. and the diniculty
OF accurately telling the age OF old
horses is greater In proportion To their
age. SO much Ia this the case that Il
Ia popularity supposed that II Is im-
possible TO tell the age OF horses after
they are years old. This may bo
true 10 n great extent among the IN

do this successfully requires much ex-
perience and a careful inspection OF all
visible indications Of age. To rely

OUR TOBACCO MARKET HAS
A FINE CORPS OF
BUYERS.
Opening One
of Large Volume and
Bright Promise.
Every Warehouse Had It's Quota
of Patronage. and Every Pa
tr0n Realized Full Value
For His Staple.

Notwithstanding the rainy wealth
er for the past week and the I'M
usually heavy rain Monday night,
all OF which has been greatly
against the farmers in getting
their tobacco ready for market
and to market, the ssbreaks'' on
the floors Of Goldsboro's three
spacious warehouses at Tuesdays
opening of the season were
all large, and the bidding be-
tween the buyers was spirited
and unfagging from start to fin
ish, resulting IN good prices to
the farmers and satisfaction to all
concerned.
The Goldsboro Tobacco Market
is no longer an experiment;
neither is 1t fuctuating in virtue
nor uncertain in tone, but is an
established and an abiding reality,
and its facilities of approach and
advantages for shipment are so
prominently superior to any other
town in the tobacco belt, as to
render it easily the best tobacco
market in the State.
Other markets may claim SUI
periority, and some of them may
make ephemeral spurts to sus-
tain the claim and ,entice the
farmer to favor them with his
produce; but the farmer who pa.
tronizes the Goldsboro market
not as an experiment, with an
occasional load of tobacco.-a.l
the season through will be for
tunate indeed, for he will surely
get every cent his crop is worth.
Our market opened Tuesday with
as fine a corps of competitive
buyers as any market in the
State has ever known, represent
ing not only all the leading
establishments, includ-
the American Tobacco Com
pany, but also many foreign con-
Germs of mammoth proportions,
including Germany and Japan.
