The rise here not shared by other countries Is
at any rate less than 80 per cent. not an I'M
pressve proof" 1t may be admitted, of the
crushing influence of American monopolies,
nor of the wholesale robbery Of the people by
n protective tariff" I. is the simple fact that as
great difference in the general range OF prices
has been caused more than once by few days
OF storm or drouth. Since more than twO-thirds
of the rise has appeared also in Great Britain. 1t
must be granted that American tariffs and
trusts and other causes of all sorts have not
been particularly effective in comparison with
those causes which have affected prices in other
countries as well.
II appears that the great advance In Great
Britain. as In this country. has been In the
metals class. large part Of 1t due to the ex-
traordinary demand for iron and its products
which has sprung up throughout the civilized
world, but also due in considerable measure to
operations in tin, copper and lead, which have
had their origin and their most conspicuous In
fuence in the British market. Coal has also
been made dearer there by local causes, ana
petroleum by relations Of demand and supply
which affect all markets alike. The same Is
true OF lumber, which has risen sharply In Great
Britain as it has here, and Of many important
chemicals and drugs. Most Of these products
are to n large extent controlled in price by the
English markets. which are now much inhu-
enced. however by the extraordinary demand
for consumption in this country resulting from
unprecedented prosperity. But In the articles
going directly to determine the cost OF living
the rise In British prices has been fully as great
since January / as 1t has been in American
prices

Feeding Colts,

the future usefulness OF the colt
depends upon nothing so much as the
feed during the FIRST year of It's life,
says Rural World, TO be useful in any
way horse must have good bones,
ana, above all, good joints. Bones are
Duilt, like the rest of the body, from
the feed consumed by the young an
imal, and II the food does not contain
inc elements essential to the growth
OF the bone, 1t is evident that there
Will be weakness in this part of tho
organism. The milk from the dam
contains large proportion of the most
necessary mineral substances, such as
lime, but the colt seems to require
much more In short time, and may
be seen trying to supplement this lin
tied supply by taking occasional
mouthfuls Of soil. Probably no ma
terlals at the farmers disposal contain
more mineral or bone-forming mate
rial than bran and oats, and the colt
should have plenty Of these and good
clover hay from the start 1t is quite
safe, as a rule, 10 give as much as two
quarts of these concentrates mixed per
diem as soon as the colt can BIO taught
to eat them, and this may be grad
ually increased. The colts tempera-
ment and character should be closely
studied, however, and ration gagged
accordingly. These concentrates and
clover hay being rich in protein or
material, slnew and ten
don, as well as bone, and such are the
great deslderata in colts Feed lib
orally Of the right kind OF feed, and
nature will do the rest so far as bodily
development is concerned.

AnoIont AmerIcnn sleepInr Cars.

l.. Xavlre Byma, Frenchman, who
came to this country in 1S47 wrote an
article In ILLUSTRATION OF Paris, pub
llshed July 22,1S4S, giving his expert
ences on the railroads Of the United
States. He says that at that time
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad had
a length of seventy leagues and that
the cost of the road was l,116,744
francs, the receipts 1888, 456 francs and
expenses 1,964,741 francs, He also
gives considerable space to the In
terror arrangements Of the sleeping
cars used at that time and says that,
"they are actually houses where moth
ing ia lacking for the necessity Of life
and are divided into compartments and
sleeping rooms, some for men and
some for women" Each room held six
beds or rather little couches in three
tiers along the sides. He winds up his
account by saying that valuables were
not particularly well taken care of, as
in America there were no such things
as sneak thieves"

Inequality Of wear In the shoe Ia

the Maine Farmer. The horse who 10
prone to this method of shoeing 10,
without single exception, bound to
have swollen or pulled ankles. He
cannot help It, Cannot any man sec
that wearing shoe in this manner
forces an extra strain on the lower
ligaments and ankle joints? Yes, and
on the other joints as well. This strain
is bound to show It's effects In the
pulled ankle. Again, inequality Of wear
in the shoe is liable and often does
cause corns, quarter cracks, knuckling
and such ailments. The reason for the
FIRST two troubles is that the extra
strain thrown on the inner part Of the
hoof is too much for 1t to stand, and,
as a result Of this unequal bearing
and pressure, the trouble Is made to
appear, while in knuckling the trouble
is forced by a weakness which is ag-
gravated by the high inside heel and
low outside, complete and distinct
inequality.

wator for Calves.

To the Farmers Revlew:--In order
to determine how much water the herd
Of thirteen calves at the Kansas Agri-
cultural College would drink, the water
given them for q week was weighed,
and put In barrel with an attachment
for letting 1t out as fast as needed.
In the seven days the thirteen calves
drank 1858 pounds Of water, or an av-
erage Of eight pounds a day. The
weather during this time was warm
for the first three days and cooler the
last four days. In addition, the calves
got an average Of IA pounds OF skim
milk besides grain and hay. The
calves drank several times day, not
much at time but often. l noticed
several times that they took only one
or two swallows. Often times they
would take a few swallows OF water.
This experiment shows that calves
need water in addition to their milk
ration; 1t also shows that they like
1t often and not SO much at a time.
Always see that 1t is fresh and clean.

American Live Stock Exhibits Mt Paris
The Washington correspondent Of
Farmers Review writes: The various
chiefs Of the department of agrlcul-
ture are getting down to work in
preparation for the agricultural ex.
hibits at the Paris Exposition. Word
has been received that the live stock
section will be restricted to the show
Ing of horses and poultry and that cat
tie will be shut out and the exhibits
confined to breeding animals. This is
exactly what the farmers Of this coun-
try Will not want. 1t Is not probable
that Americans would care to take
over their fine studs and brood mares,
and bring them back again, whereas
IL is believed that American exhibits
OF attractive proportions could be
made Of fat stock and work animals.

ergy, is directing his endeavors toward

Different breeds Of hogs vary in the
degree Of their amiability when 1t
comes to handling them, so do differ
ent animals of the same breed, says
A. N. Springer in Land and Living"
Much Of their seeming fierceness is due
to fear that you will harm them or
their brood. Once they have perfect
confidence in you, all restiveness will
vanish, as rule, and you can do for
them whatever necessity demands. SO
far as is possible, one should always
select pigs to raise for brood sows from
a gentle SOW. Then their treatment
should be Of the kindest, no dogs
should be allowed to worry them, and
they should never be chased about with
sticks or clods. They should really be
made pets Of, and with a little time
and trouble 1t can be done, Begin by
rubbing them when eating or drinking,
keep this up at intervals until they
seem to expect and enjoy it, and the
task is about completed.

There are some who do not appre-
ciate the value of clover hay for swine.
It is to be regretted that such apprecia-
ton is not universal, says an exchange.
It Is not only valuable because Of its
high merit as feed, but because of the
bulk that 1t furnishes. No growing ami
NAL should be fed exclusively upon the
grains. There should be some bulk
furnished. Swine will eat dry clover
hay with a relish, but the better way
to feed 1t is to cut 1t up, steam 1t or
pour hot water on 1t and mix with
neal. Pasture, IL 1t is the right kind
Of pasture, is nearly an essential In
profitable swine raising. 1t should be
clover pasture, but II 1t is not, 1t must
be composed Of short and tender grass.
