sentatives of what may be seen in

The. gentlemen and ladies told
their hearers that Sacramento or

earlier than those of Southern Cali.
fornia; that almost the entire crop
of the valley, amounting to upward
of five hundred car. loads a year, is
marketed before the Christmas holt

phenomenon, it was pointed out that

second time for the murder in Janu'

Ii. Kennedy, was found not gull y
by jury here to day. At her first
trial she was convicted and sentenced
to ten years in the penitcntiary.
The case was reversed audremaud

last February, she married John
Kramer, an attorney, who had de
Tended her brother, Will Prince. who
later was convicted on a charge OF
conspiring with the defendant to Kill
Kennedy. Mrs, Kennedy Killed X n,
nedy, who was local agent for the
Merchants Dispatch transportation
Co., a month after they had been
married. He had refused to live with
her, bringing suit to have the mar.
riage annnlled on the ground that he
had been forced into it.
The verdict OF acquittal was found
solely on the ground that Mrs Ken.
nedy was insane when she shot her
husband, The Jury, however, found
that "the defendant has since regain
ed her sanity" which will save her
from being sent to an asylum

Clovers on Wet Land.

Clovers differ greatly as to their abil-
fly to live with water at their roots.
Thus, the red varieties must be grown
on land where water does not stand. A
large proportion Of the failures in get
ting catches Of clover are doubtless due
to the sowing Of the seed on poorly
drained land. Where the red clover is
wanted and the land is wet. the only
thing to do Is to drain 1t. SO that the land
will dry out well In the spring and get
warm quickly, and so that II will remain
warm till late in the fall. Cold land is
not suitable to the growing of medium
and red clover. But with the alsike It is
different, to degree. That variety will
stand more moisture than the other
kinds, but not so much as some people
give Il credit for.

THE CAUSE OF BALKINEss.
To Avoid Trouble from This Cause
Colts Must Be Trained bya
Sensible Method.

The cause OF balkiness is not always
the same. 1t is usually, II not always,
due to improper handling in one way
or another. II Is sometimes due to
putting the colt to q heavy load ECO
suddenly, before he has learned to pull,
or when he has sore shoulders. To
avoid trouble from this source q writer
in the Gazette suggests the following
plan. The plan that l suggest does
much the same for horses shoulders
as biting does for his mouth. II &C
customs the shoulders to pressure, and
that in such gradual way that the
colt trains himself and stands properly
to his collar from the begtaning of his
lessons in harness. This method ! find
specially useful for the over-willing,
high-strung horse not bred for draft
Fix a pulley behind the horses stall
or in some other convenient place
about as high as the horses stiles,
then run rope up over another pull
ley and attach a light weight to II
sufficient to keep the rope fully taut
When fastened to the horses single
tree, which Is attached to the tugs in
the ordinary way, tie the horse as long
as you safely can and securely. The
weight must be of the ground all tho
time. The horse may come back to the
end Of this halter for a time, but he
will gradually brace himself to hold
up light weight, as 1t Is more COM
for:able for him. This may be put on
the horse at feeding time II nervous
horse and taken off the first few times
before he has done eating. After
while increase the weight, but the
more nervous he Is the more gradually
this should be done. When you are
passing by give the rope a pull and
put some of your weight on 1t. He will
soon brace against it, and mind he does
no. catch your fingers in the pulley.
If the horse has been badly baked
previously and his shoulders have beer
hurt he should have a set of springs
on his tugs when first hooked to keep
him from jerking his shoulders. II
you have not these take him out in tho
yard with a rope on his singletree and
pull back on this as much or as little
as seems necessary. Then hook him
and back him up a little few times.
Study his actions and do not start him
up until the right moment. The chances
are. however, that he will have be-
come so Indifferent to the collar and
so habituated to standing UP to it that
he will move quietly off.
/ would like to make one suggestion
in addition, and that is to fasten colt
back with two side-lines on his halter
or a leather nose band. so that when
he lunges ahead he will not jerk his
mouth. A colt naturally thinks that
the driver yanks him, when most OF
the time he does it himself.
