Good HOFaeA in De mand .

The breeding of horses, like all
other kinds of live stock, will pay if
the aim is to produce the very best.
The greatest drawback to the bust
ness at the present time is the lack
Of good stations o. the different
breeds throughout the country. So
far as our observation extends there
are fewer first-class stations Access
sible at this time than ever before,
and it will take some time to get
them through the country. Those
who have good mares of any breed
and are in reach of the right kind of
stations are fortunate just at this
time. and will make the rearing of
horse stock a profitable branch OF
farming-Farmers' Voice.

No brushes portray the silence that no

TIL the final trumpet soandeth with Its
gladdening cry. Awake,
No sourd makes the eyelids culver, no
moan may harrow the rest
Till the dawn Of that biissful morning,
the brightest of all, the best.
No language may speak the quiet nor ted
of its infinite hush

When the strong hand of the Master has

FAST FOREIGN TRAINS.
Long Runs Made in France and England
Without Stops.

Recent improvements in the speed
Of express trains in England, Scot
land and France form the subject Of
an article by Mr.. Rous- Marten in the
Engineer. In 1899 Mr.. Rous-Mar-
len found numerous improvements
to report, but in 1900 there were not
many, and a considerable portion of
the present article is devoted to
refntations of erroneous statements
which have been made by other writ
ers. France still shows faster sehed-
,ules than England. The French did
not make much Improvement IN 1900
over 1899, but the very natural ex-.
planation is that the 1899 record was
remarkably high. In France, speeds
onthe different lines are limited BY
statute, the highest. limit being ia
miles an hour. On some parts of the
Paris, Lyons & Mediterranean the
limit is 6s.3, and on other sections of
this and other roads the limits are
62.1 and 55.9:
There are eight stretches of rail-
road IN France, of over 100 miles
each, which are traversed regularly by
trains which make nostops. The elong-
est of these is from Paris to Arras, on
the Northern, 120 miles, at SIS miles
an hour. On most Of these eight lines
more than one non-stopping journey
is made daily. Between Paris and
Troyes, l03.75 miles, there are SIX
such trips daily, the fastest being
made at 49 miles an hour. This is
on the Eastern railroad.
In England there are 9 many long
runs without stop that the author
tabulafes only those Of 120 miles or
longer. The longest is from Pad
dington tLondon1 to Exeter, over the
Great Nestern, 1882 miles; quickest
time, 3 hours 43 minutes. rate 52.1
miles an hour Between Crewe and
Carlisle, over the Northwestern, 1411a
miles, ten trips are made daily, each
without a stop, the fastest being at
the rate Of SIG miles an hour The
total number of runs without stops
Shown in this table Of routes $50.
Mr. Rous- Marten gives tables
showing the fastest run on each of
the principal British roads and d
similar table for the French and also
shows all Of the runs IN each country
scheduled at 81 miles an hour or
faster, OF these be finds in Eng
land II, and ii France So. The best
in the British list is from Forfar to
Perth, on fhe Caledonian, 3g2II miles,
