FARM HORSES NEEDED.
the Surplus stock Raised In
the western states.

There is too little horse power in
New England to properly till and Gull
tivate the soil, says Prof. Charles Will
liam Burkitt in bulletin SO of the New
Hampshire experiment sta tion. There
are thousands of acres of tillab.e land
in the east that have not felt the pillow
for long series of years, some for
decades and some for a half century.
Soil will not remain productive If un-
titled. We have not enough horses
or working Units in the state to do
the regular farm work and to carry
on tillage as it should be done. The
OK, generally speaking, has gone, while
the number of horses has not increased
proportional tely.
Practically the only supply of horses
is from other states; yet this state
is quite abe to supply its full needs
and could have to spare for demands
elsewhere. The work lies with the
farmers themselves, not only to in
crease the number of working horses
but to improve them and make them
more serviceable.
BY using the better grade of mares
for breeding purposes and having the
service of some pure-bred sire of some
draft or coach breed of good type and
conformation, 1t would be but short
time until the character Of the whole
horse stock were changed into a bet
ter and improved one. Good draft and
coach stations can be secured for
about $500. Several farmers could pur-
chase a stallion of the type desired,
and there could be engaged several
mares for the first season at moder-
ate charge for service which would
pay not only high rate for money
invested. but would go long way
for paying the full cost.-orange Judd

terminal spike. The plant with which
this species is most likely to be con-
fused is the wild geranium, but the
danger is confined to the early part of
the season before the flowers are de-
veloped. After the flowers of the
larkspur and geranium appear, the
two plants are easily distinguished by
the casual observer.
Tall larkspur may be considered a
poisonous plant, though it is little
eaten by farm animals. The eating &C.
ours only when snowstorms have COW
cred other plants. Even then cattle
seem to be about the only sufferers.
Even when eaten, it is not always
fatal, considerable quantities being
required to destroy life. In expert
ments made in feeding the extract of
larkspur to rabbits the animals were
made sick by it, but recovered. Never
theless, it is positively known that
cattle have been killed by eating it.
Experiments on cattle and on sheep
indicated that permanganate of pot
ash is an effective antidote when given
in the first stages of the poisoning.
Cattle should be kept from patches of
larkspur, especially during snow
storms.-Farmers' Review.

rack,nx Honey for market.

In packing comb honey for market
it is to the producers interest to face
the cases honestly. The row of combs
next to the glass should be a fair sam
pie of the whole case. Do not sell
your reputation while selling your
honey, for you will probably have
some honey to dispose of in the fu-
ture. Try to build up your reputation
by dealing honestly. II light and dark
honey are packed together in the same
case, you may get the price for all
light honey, but il the cases are
opened you win surely get paid for all
dark honey. The poor will depreciate
the good. SO pack each grade separate
and face honestly.-F. @. Herman, In

Mistake of the Democrats.

The free traders who are shouting
for reciprocity under the impression
that it means the overthrow of the
protective tariff and claiming the late
President Mckinley as their cham
pion seem not to have read his last
speech carefully. In that speech he
did not favor an indiscriminate ex-
tension of favors to other nations, but
Sensible trade arrangements which
will not interrupt our home produc-
tion," and System which provides
n natural exchange of commodities"
Those free traders who are extolling
the late president for his advanced
views cannot have read the following
from the speech they so loudly extol:
'If, perchance, some Of our tariffs are
no longer needed for revenue or to encour-
age or protect our industries at home.
why should they not be employed to ex-
tend ard promote our markets abroad?"
These qualifications are very i'm
portant parts of the views expressed
by the late president at Buffalo. Reel
procity must be mutual exchange, and
It must not lead to unsafe arrange
ments which will deprive American in

Llsht in Poultry Hou.e..

According to my observation, most
poultry houses have too many win
dows, or rather too much window
space. Big windows are not advisa BILE.
My own practice has been to have one
window of two sashes each containing
nine-by-ten glass. This is the right
size OF windows for houses ten by ten
feet square. More glass is unneces-
sary and makes the house very cold in
winter. Each sash should be covered
with wire screen to prevent the fowls
from breaking the glass. All the win
dows should be is inches above the
floor of the poultry house. This gives
the fowls abundant light for working

I'm Cold weather.

Tall larkspur is sometimes erro-
neously called aconite. 1t is simple
stemmed perennial, four to seven feet
high. The numerous flowers are of q
palc-blue color and are arranged in
long, slender, terminal racemes. The
seed capsules are three lobed and
smooth, the seeds black. This species
of larkspur is easily distinguished
from the purple larkspur by the great
difference in the shape of their leaves
and the color of their flowers. The
tall larkspur has the flowers consider
ably smaller than those of the purple
larkspur and arranged in a long, close

had already gone to Belleview to join
her friend. He was obliged to spend
the morning looking after business
matters, though, by afternoon, he de-
cided to run out to Belleview himself,
in order to see II Miss Gregory was
well after her trying experience.
Fortune favored his pursuit, for
about the first person he saw upon
arriving at Belleview was Katydid, in
an immaculate white pique, accom-
panied by her friend, dark, rather
showy-looking woman. Marcus was
presented to her and walked home
with them. Katydid was silent and de-
mure, leaving the burden of the con-
versation to Mrs. Gaines.
81 can't stand this" Marcus groaned
inwardly. "I'm making an ass of my
self, but that is the only girl in the
world for me-"
The little hotel was crowded, but
he managed to secure tiny room at
the top of the house.
He spent the days haunting the
Gaines cottage, for, as ill-luck had 1t,
never one moment was Katydid alone.
Soon Marcus became desperate.
His business could not be neglected
much longer, neither could he return
to Washington without knowing
something of Miss Gregory's feelings
on the state of matrimony in general
-and himself, in particular.
One afternoon he went to the cot
tage determined not to leave without
expressing his feelings; an urgent
telegram made it necessary he should
go east the following day, at the
farthest.
He chose q seat next to Katydid
safely in the shelter of the porch
blind. She looked as sweet as an APP
pie blossom in green and white
dimity dress.
miss Gregory, have an important
matter to discuss with you before
leave town." he began, hoping Mrs.
Gaines would take the hint and leave
them together.
She continued to rock and sew on
her Battenberg lace, however, with
annoying composure.
Marriage is a very important step
in life," he continued, gazing at Katy
dds flushed face and downcast eyes,
for she was knitting something with
fluffy white wool.
81 know I thought So" Mrs. Gaines
remarked, "Oh, Mr.. Kimberley, have
you read Richard Carvel?'"
Marcus darted killing look toward
her.
II have not, Mrs. Gaines"
Then he lowered his voice, and cap
tured Katydid's hand, knitting needles
included.
miss Gregory, I'm in love with a
certain girl not a hundred miles away,
the dearest, sweetest, prettiest-"
"Gracia Gaines!" flashed Katydid,
her cheeks fairly afame. Haven't you
got sense enough to go into the
house?"
Meanwhile Mrs. Gaines was choking
with laughter.
Didn't you make me promise not
to leave you alone with him?" she
gasped, as soon as she could speak.
Katydid hung her head in confusion,
and Marcus made quick motion that
caused Mrs. Gaines to disappear with
swiftness and dispatch.
Gracious! Won't he make her walk

Cloud Nov. 20 and q, and will be one
of the most important conventions ever

The state department of dairy and food
is taking an active interest in the com-
ing convention. and Assistant B. d.
White will be in attendance at the con-
vention to agitate the trust question and
arouse public sentiment against it. The
department will also present the question
of increasing the cheese industry of Min

new impetus to the building of cheese
factories throughout the state by the aid
of statistics, which prove the cheapness
of building and operating, and the large
profits to be made.
1t is the intention of the department to
keep the sentiment aroused by the last

conventions and booming them before the
farmers. Reports of the Minnesota ex-
hibit at the Buffalo exposition will be
made. and expert buttermakers will give
the convention the benefit of their latest
