Clipping the Foreloek.

The American Stock Farm has this
sensible advice on clipping the fore
lock: Our advice to leave the horses
forelock. names and tails undressed has
been offered to farmers and dealers
who put their horses on the public
market. Clipping the forelock lessons
the market value Of a horse at homo
or abroad. The financial consideration
then should forbid it. With this con
sheraton out Of the way. two other
considerations remain-the esthetic
and the humane. But for the fact that
there should be no disputing about
tastes, q flowing nan and forelock
are invariably q prominent part Of the
artists conception Of beauty in a horse.
A horse with a clipped forelock looks
to us like nothing so much as a singed
cat-and a cat that has passed through
that process is not especially comely to
the average eye. We would certainly
not clip the forelock."

Hum0Fs Of the Val.

The sultan has arranged to pay the
Russo Turkish war indemnity and con-
sequently Russia will not take posses
sion Of Armenia as a forfeit.
Lieut.. Chadwick, who served on the
cruiser Raleigh in Manila bay, recent
~ told In Cleveland of IN incident that
occurred during the return voyage.
when the cruiser struck q huge whale
sleeping on the water. Lieut.. Chad
wick was on watch when the boat gave
. lurch. Il thought We had run on
some hidden rocks" he said. Il
rushed to the rail and found that the
ram of the cruiser was fast in the side
OF . whale forty feet long. The en-
gines had to be reversed before the
whale Wa released. He aoated away
dead. You may think that is a fish
story. hut 1t is an actual fact. and the
cruisers log will verify it."
A story. probably perfectly true. that
seems to be arousing quite an unneces-
sary amount of comment and even sur
prise, is to the effect that the French
ministry Of war is employing dogs as
septries of the powder magazines at
Brest and Toulon. Why in the world
not? What is more natural? The
dog has been the recognized guardian
Of mans house and property for years.
Was not a three-headed animal Of this
amiable species even stationed at the
portals Of the lower regions until that
very enterprising burglar Hercules in
terfered with him? So why should
anybody be surprised that the French
should think of watchdogs to guard
powder magazines? A really singular
tale was current about dogs of war a
few years back, to the effect that the
Germans were training Great Danes to
attack anyone in French uniform. A
man Of straw in the French uniform
was given them to practice on-so the
story went-while they were taught to
deal gently with men of straw in the
uniform Of the German army. Prob
ably this story was of a fairy nature,
for VI have heard no more of it.

Water for the Horse.-The quantity
of water allowed to horses Is often in
sufficient, says Rural World. The va
ter required by animals for nutritive
and d~epurative purposes is obtained
partly from the drinking water. Green
foods and roots contain a good deal
OF water-as much maybe as 80 per
cent-and animals getting these foods
require to drink less. but the staple
foods Of the horse, oats and hay, con-
tain no more than from II to 16 per
cent of moisture, and on this dry food
there should. unless under special and
very peculiar circumstances, be . free
allowance.-Ex.
