VIRTUES OF BARLEY.
Land That Will Grow Good Corn One
Year VIII Yield a Fair Barley
Crop the Next.

One advantage which barley may
he credited with over the other ce-
reals is that it is much less liable
to be injured by the rust fungus.
Nearly all the varieties that are now
on the market mature some time
during the first ten days in July,
so that the crop escapes to some
extent the severely hot weather.
Ripening, as it does at this early
date is of considerable advantage to
the grower during the harvesting
period. Where winter wheat is
grown barley is generally ready to
harvest soon after this crop, while
spring wheat and oats come in a lit
tie later. But the fact that it ma
lures at a convenient time would not
alone recommend it for general cul-
ture. It must give good WELD of
grain, otherwise farmers in general
will have little use for it. In this
respect we think that barley fully
fills the requirements. Where or
binary care is taken in preparing the
seed bed and the soil is at all in
good heart there is little difficulty
in getting a yield of 40 bushels per
acre. In fact we have seen a so and
SIS bushel yield time and again. AS
the grain usually weighs from As to
so pounds per bushel it will be seen
that the yield in pounds per acre is
very large. 1t certainly would re-
quire a heavy crop of oats to pro-
duce the same amount of food. 1t is
true that the grain is scarcely so
palatable as oats and that it is not
relished SO much by farm animals:
at the same time if properly com
bined with other foods it will give
good results.-Live Stock Indicator.

EXERCISE FOR HORSES.
An Important Element In the Devel-
opment of the Highest Powers
of an Animal

In writing about the care of horses
an eminent English army officer has
the following to say: "Regularity OF
exercise is an important element in the
development of the highest powers of
the horse. The horse in regular work
will suffer less in his legs than another,
for he becomes gradually and thor
oughly accustomed to what it required
of him. The whole living machine ac-
commodities itself to the regular de-
mands on it, the body becomes active
and we'll conditioned without super
fuous fat, and the muscles and tendoEs
gradually develop. Horses in regular
work are also nearly exempt from the
many accidents which arise from over
freshness. AS a proof of the value of
regular exercise, we need only refer to
the stage coach horse of former days.
Many of these animals, though by no
means of the best physical frame,
would trot with a heavy load behind
them for eight hours at the rate fOf
ten miles an hour without turning a
hair, and this work they would con-
tinue to do for years without even be-
ing sick or sorry. Few gentlemen can
say as much for their carriage horses
No horses, in fact, were in harder con-
dition. On the other hand, if exercise
be neglected, even for a few days, in
horse in high condition, he will put
on fat. He has been taking daily the
large amount of material needed to
sustain the consumption caused by his
work. If that work cease suddenly
nature will, Notwithstanding, continue
to supply the new material; and fat,
followed by plethora. and frequently
by disease, will be the speedy conse
ouence"

What About Your school Houses.

You may not this season be able to build

the old one that you had in contemplation,
but there is no school district in the Unit

Alabastine the interior of their buildings,
thus making them more attractive, get
ting colors made with special reference to
their effects on the eyes of the pupils, get

The Shirley company presented "The

initial appearance of weeks engage
ment at the Grand Opera House The
play and the music delighted all who
were present, as being clean, strong and
dramatic in all it's situations. Miss
Shirley az Ethel Douglass pleased all
her old friends at Salem who we're

overcome the defects Of not strong
melodrama. Tom LOTUS in the country
man was at his best and taught the
lessons that all young boys and men
need to learn, Of the dangers that beset
them on entering city life, with greatest
cleaverness. Mr.McQuarry who is an old
favorite with Salem theatre goers played
the lead as Clarence Douglass with great
force and fills promises of becoming a
greater actor. The four specialties were
most attractive features and consisted OF
songs by Misses Brisac and Adams, Mr..
LOTUS, and Little Verna FELTON,, which
we're we'll received and heartily encored.
Taking it, all in all, it was most pleas
ing performance, ana promises to realize
the anticipations of the Salem theatre
goers who are looking forward to dra'
matte entertainment every night that
will be worthy of being witnessed by
our most critical audiences. Tonight
the company presents a war play "For
