There Is a striking analogy between
the shoulders of horse and the hand
OF a man. Each is respectively the
lever by which the power is applied.
Broadly speaking. every implement de-
signed for the use of man Ia provided
with a handle. and this handle is made
TO MT the hand, not the hand for tie
handle. 1t is about a certain size, is
rounded smooth and hard: at least 1t is
never made soft, with n view OF being
easier on the hand
The three qualifications last named
should be present in the horse collar.
II the collar is the proper length and
hts the horse. and is stuffed full and
round. 1t may be hard as iron without
danger of CALLING the shoulder. Ger
tainly the collar must fit the horse ex-
actly. OF course, the names must be
drawn up high enough so that the
draught Will not center on the shoulder
joint. The logic of this is simple. II
the handle of a manual implement
gals the hand it is because of its
foughnesS or improper shape, never
because it is too hard If it is to be
continuously used the man does not
put on a mitten in warm weather to
overcome defect in it; neither does
ne demand that the handle be made OF
something soft. but simply that it be
properly shaped. smooth and hard. The
collar which is round and hard rolls on
the skin at every motion of the ami
mai, somewhat like the manner of a
ball bearing, admitting the air. and
thereby cooling the parts: but the fiat,
soft collar sticks SO closely that it com
pels the skin to move on the under
lying flesh in such way as to produce
irritation and deep seated galls.-.To-

Suit;n~ the Customer.

If growers of vegetables for market
would study more closely the needs of
the consumer there would be ma
terial increase in the prices obtained
for the product, as well as Il quicker
sale for it. Most growers work on the
plan that the largest specimens are
the ones that will bring the high prices.
but this is mistake. Any housekeepcr
will say that what she most desires in
vegetables for cooking are those of
medium size and of uniform size THIS
last is especially important. Take po-
tatoes as an illustration: the larger
specimens are not always of the best
flavor, and there are not suffice.
number of them in a barrel. so that thc
housekeeper can rely on having large
ones until the entire lot is gone-;he
result is she has some difficulty in
cooking the large and small together;
good reason why she prefers the me-
dunn size and the uniform size. This
rule holds good through all vegetables.
and they should be grown with this
idea in mind at all times.

The Sturgeon.

The development Of the sturgeon as a
great article of commerce is one Of the
most interesting stories connected with
the fish industry. Fifteen years ago
female sturgeon sold for SIS the other
day. The value placed on the sturgeon
for it's eggs is familiar to all, but the
flesh now, too, sells up with that OF other
staple fish. 1t brings 10 cents n pound
fresh, while the smoked article sells at IL
much higher price. Smoked sturgeon is
now on the market, and almost all of that
caught is prepared in that way. The
eggs of the sturgeon bring 80 cents a
pound to the fisherman. They are made
into caviar. The bladder sells for 81 a
pound, and is used for isinglass.

GIVES UP HIS PENSION.
Kansas Soldier, a Christian Scientist,
Thinks it Wrong to Take 1t.

Recently a Kansas old soldier sent the
following letter to the pension depart
ment:
Topeka. Kan. Oct 8, 1eO2,-To the Hon.
Pensioner Commissioner: Having become
converted to the belief commonly known
as Christian Science, ! herewith voluntarily
surrender all claim TO the pension which
l have been drawing for the past twelve
years. My pension was allowed on ac-
count of alleged rheumatism and alleged
stomach trouble contracted during nay serv
ice In the Civil war, and the mortal error
which made me think / had them also
made the doctors who examined me think
the same. But l am now convinced that
there is no such thing as rheumatism Oh
stomach trouble; that by the blessings Of
God I am free of error, and that l have
no right to take money from the govern
ment on account Of a cause which does not
exist.
The official who sent the above letter to
the Journal withheld the name of the old
soldier who wrote it. In comment, how
ever. he said:
IF this Christian Science idea should
spread to any great extent among the old
boys it would solve the pension problem.
1t is the first instance OF the kind.

to them that an animal that has been
on pasture all the summer through

paid as high as 81 bushel for carrots

the sum was made good by having

Waste of Corn Fodder.

In Missouri it is safe to estimate that
something like 100000 tons of corn
fodder are grown in the average year.
Certainly 100000 tons. or one-half of
all that is produced. is wasted. The
average hay crop of the State is scarce
ly more than 100000 tons and is esti-
mated to be worth on the farm over
$20,00oo00. Yet large proportion of
this hay is timothy, material that
supplies the same class Of nutrients for
our stock that is found in corn fodder.

Feeling Pumpkins to Stock.

There is an idea among farmers that
pumpkin seeds are injurious to stock.
and especially TO swine. There is no
good foundation for this belief, al
though. without doubt, if Il hog was
permitted to eat all the pumpkin seeds
it could without eating any of the flesh
they would make him Ill. Pumpkins
should be freely fed n stock. using
them as other green crops, such as po-
tatoes, carrots and the like are used
as appetizers and feeding them in
small quantities just before the regular
meal. If given after the regular meal
the animals will not eat so freely Of
