PLAN OF THE HORSE STALL.

the most desirable portions. Often
large share of it is thrown from the
manger to the floor. In the illustra-
tien the manger, b, is only IA inches
wide at the bottom, and 1 foot high.
1t is made from 2-inch oak plank, with
strip of well-worn wagon tire nailed
on the upper edge.
The hay rack at is outside the
stall. 1t should be 2is to 3 feet wide
and 1S inches deep. If fodder is fed
from above, the chute should extend
up to the floor. The wooden gratings
are at least s inches apart, so that the
horse may easily pass in his head up
to the eyes if need be, but by making
the bottom of the rack pitch at
sharp angle toward the manger all
litter, etc, will fall into the manger.
In this form of rack the horse grasps
a mouthful of hay, pulls it from the
rack and holds it over the manger
while eating. 1t is plain that all loose
PARTICLES fall into the manger and are
eaten at leisure. The uneaten portion
in rack is not mussed over The feed
box at is made in usual manner. II
horses are in the habit of throwing out
the grain, nail a strip over the edge
of box, letting project inward about
1 inch. BY the use of door at the
grain is fed without entering the
stall.
The form of stall division is impor.
tant and the one shown is o X. The
shoulder at (too low in engraving)
is very convenient to hang blanket on
or to temporarily lay the brush OF
currycomb on or even parts of har.
ness. For easy cleaning of stable the
floor boards in rear of stall should run
in the direction shown at f, as the
sweepings are usually disposed of at
one end of stable, and are more readily
pushed lengthwise instead of cross.

Adequate Provocntion.

An old Scotswoman had imbibed so
much of the doctrine that music in
church was sinful that when she
came to this country she refused to
subscribe to the general sentiment in
favor of choir singing, etc. She
scowled one day in her own church
when the congregation took up an
anthem that was scored rather elab-
orately, and complained to her pew
neighbor of the foothold the devil
was getting even in the service of
God, says the Philadelphia Times.
But" protested her neighbor,
shat anthem is very old and very
sacred. Why, David sang it before
SAUL"
"Weel! weel!" commented the old
woman. "I moo for the first time I'M
derstan' why Saul threw iavelin a
David when the lad sang for him!".-

SALT FOR LIVE STOCK.
Animals Need 1t just ns Much as Man
6or Proper Digestion of
Thedr Food.

Because animals are dumb and
cannot ask for what they need, it
sometimes happens, through careless.
ness or forgetfulness, that they are
deprived of that which is essential
to their welfare. 1t is easy for a
man to ask for salt if it is not on
the table, but an animal can only
long for it if it is not given; yet
salt is about as necessary for one as
the other.
There is a large percentage of salt
in the composition of the body, lar
ticularly in the blood and cartilag4s,
and this is constantly being given cff
through perspiration, the kidneys,
ETC., and the waste must be supplied
or the body suffers.
On The other hand, in the case of
sailing cattle pastured in distant
fields, where quite trip has to be
made from home to reach them, this
is sometimes done at long intervals,
and large quantity of salt is taken,
seemingly with the idea of making
up for the lack of it in the mean
tlllic' lhS SabulSi hot hdNlhS idu any
for so long, devour it eagerly and in
larger quantities than they should,
and the effect is frequently harmful.
1t would be found more advantageous
to make the trip oftener and with
less salt at time.
Cattle thrive best on variety of
food, and in digesting this certain
amount of salt is necessary to obtain
the best results. Should this be
given, not only will the cattle be
comfortable and not likely to get ont
of condition, but they will return a
larger percentage of gain to theiI
owner.-H. e. Haydock, in N. Y. Trib
une-Farmer.

Hundreds Of Dollars
Spent In Vain---Pe-
ru-na Cured.

A neglected cold is frequently tho
cause of death.
tits more often, however, the cause OF
some chronic disease.
There is not an organ in the body but
what is liable to become seriously de.
ranged by n neglected cold. Diseases
of the kidneys, bladder and digestive
organs are all frequently the result Of
n neglected cold.
Hundreds of dollars are spent on doc
tors and medicines trying to cure these
diseases, butuntil the true cause of them
is discovered, there will be no use in
using medicine.
Dyspepsia medicine, diarrhea medi-
cine and constipation medicine is of no
good whatever when catarrh is tho
cause. The catarrh must he treated.
The cause being removed, the derange-
ments will disappear.
Peruna cures catarrh of the digestive
organs, the urinary organs or any of the
internal organs.
If You do not derive prompt and satis-
factory results from the use of Peruna
write at once to DR.. Hartman, giving a
full statement of your case, and hewill

vice gratis.

wife, who was very devoted to him, in spite
of his fault-finding disposition. His suf-
fering caused her TO burst into tears some
times as she sat at his bedside.

in and asked him how he was getting on,

hut When 1t Comes to Choosing Our
Friends 1t Is Somewhat
Different

An open enemy is better than gos-
siping friend. The story is told of a
man in public life in Washington who
once found himself surrounded by a
host of self-appointed counselors, con-
tinually advising him, ''as friends" of
many astounding things, which val
ued and lifelong intimate, also in pub
lie life, was alleged to be doing against
him, says the Boston Globe. Bitter
ness beset the heart of the man when
he heard that his friend had turned
against him and he grieved.

which filled his heart with doubt of the
loyalty of his lifelong friend. "The
dog that will fetch will carry" says the
old proverb; and the friends" who
had told tales to one of these men told
the same sort to the other. They were
politicians, place-seekers, hangers-on,
who for their own ends employed gos-
sip, and malicious gossip at that to
keep apart these two men.
But the plan did not work. The two
men met, charged each other with cool
ness and finally learned that they had
been the victims of tale -bearers. Then
one of them said: eve can choose our
enemies, but not our friends" and in
saying it he enunciated truth.

There are men securing the sea-

all the year through in search of ADAM
doned wrecks. If the wrecks are
wooden vessels sheated with copper,
the men offer good prices for them,
but If they are iron vessels, or merely
unsheathed wooden ones, they are

with copper gradually absorbs the cop
