eran Orange county horseman to q
New York Sun reporter, told me
how to tell the age Of horse, an6
it has run in my head ever since
This is the way it ran," and he re.
peated the following rhyme:
To tell the age of any horse,
Inspect the lower jaw of course
The six front teeth the tale will tell,
And every doubt and fear dispeI.
The middle ''nippers" you behold
Before the colt Is two weeks old:
Before eight weeks two more will come:
Elgnt months, the corners cut the gum.
The outside grooves will disappear
From middle two in Just one year;
In two years from the second patr.
In three the Corners" too, are bare.
At two. the middle "nippers" drop;
At three, the second pair can't stop;
When four years old, the third peir goes:
AT nve. full new set he shows.
The deep black spots will pass from view.
At six years from the middle two;
The second pair at seven years;
AT eight, the spot each corner clears.
From middle "nippersf' upper Jaw,
At nine the black spots will withdraw.
The second pair at ten are white:
Eleven finds the corners light.
As time goes on the horsemen know
The oval teeth three-sided grow;
They longer get, project before
TIL twenty. when we know no more.

Heavy work season of the farm al
ways occasions CALLED or sore shoul-
ders on work horses. Here is a sim
pie and cheap way to prevent this:
Take an ordinary sweat pad and
cover the surface next to the shoul-
der with white soft oilcloth. Be very
careful to have it put on very smooth,
without any wrinkles or humps on
its surface. The cover is put on by
neatly sewing 10 with strong thread,
SO that it will not become displaced.
The trouble with the horses shoul.
ders in this respect is caused BY
sweating, and as the oilcloth pre-
sents a cool, dry surface and does
not hold the dampness as leather
or cloth does, it prevents the shoul-
ders from becoming sore in almost
every instance.-Midland Farmer.

The remedy Is simple: Shoot the

men dislike neighborly ructions and
rather than fight It out with the

Flavor Depend. on Food.


The food animals consume modi-
fies the character Of their flesh. Tur-
nips yield q peculiar flavor to NUT
ton. The flavor of mutton from
sheep that have lived upon, the high
land Is different from that OF sheep
which have obtained their food chief
ly from the lowlands. The garlic of
the meadows and some fragrant
herbs modify the favor Of the meat.
Oily food tends to make the fat
soft. Hens partly fed on scraps Of
decayed meat yield eggs that are at
once unpleasant to the taste and un-
healthy. Feeding the animals for
human food is then of great impor-
tance and demands experience. It is
not enough that food makes fat
1t should also impart an agreeable
flavor.
