All the large horse markets report
high prices this year. The demand was
never better in all parts of the coun-
try, particularly for the best animals.
Some very fine drafters have sold for
as much as $500 to S1vJ in the Chicago
market. These, Of course, are excep-
tional prices, and have certainly been
very remunerative to the growers.
In the financial depression that fol
lowed 1893 values dropped to so low n
figure that breeders restricted their
operations to such an extent that
breeding stock went away down below
the numbers kept In previous years In
fact In some localities that were more
or less distinguished for their indus
try, it went almost entirely out of eX-
istence
Fortunately with the revival of
prices marked revival Is manfesting

Bluejay, Bully of Winter Birds.

Among the birds that may be your
Christmas guests. if you live in the vi
cnity of New York, are the chickadee,
nuthatch. both white and red breasted;
tufted titmouse. golden crowned knight,
juneo. white throated sparrow, brown
creeper, tree sparrow, winter wren,
downy woodpecker and the bluejay. or
these the chickadee, downy woodpecker
and nuthatch are the most contiding,
while the bluejay and usually the white
throated sparrow are the most suspicious.
Both chickadees and nuthatches, with Il
little coaxing. will take food from ones
hand.
1t will not take long for the observer To
discover that the bluejay, with his fas-
cinating briskness. is the bully of the
birds. When he wants to eat, all others
must or do get themselves out of the
way. Few are bold enough to contest
his absolute right-of-way. Almost as
soon as he comes within hearing the 9th
er birds leave, and usually do not return
until he is well out of the way. Chicka-
dees and nuthatches will feed together in
perfect harmony, with occasionally a
downy woodpecker to keep them com
pany. One soon learns to recognize DIFF
ferent birds. and then it is that we real
ize how strong is the individuality, even
Of the smallest Of them.-Country Life III

Poultry PickinRs.

No success can be achieved with
poultry without cleanliness,
It's poor plan TO wash eggs for
keeping Don't do 1t. unless eggs are
to be used right away.
Whatever you do, unless you fattcu
for market, don't give an exclusive
corn diet, and better not even then.
The cry now Is for winter eggs. The
poultry keeper smart enough to get
them IS the one who is successful
financially.
In poultry feeding there are lnnu
merablc WHY'S that may lead to sue
cess. In fact. the combinations Of
foodstufrs that can be made are al
most without limit But when mixing
feeds. mix common sense with the
other ingredients
Place n heated Soapstonn wrappe1
in cloth into box of proper size. and
upon this put the dish containing fresh
drinking water. with cover over the
dish which leaves only small part OF
the surface Of the winter exposed DO
this and the water will not freeze.
Barns, outbuildings. back porches.
etc, are poor places for poultry. Have

That Dodd's Kidney Pills are doing

HOW TO FIND GROUSE.
Uncertain Birds, to Which Rules Do Not
ALWAYS Apply.

The ruffed grouse is one of the uncer-
tain birds to which no hard and fast
rules will apply, yet he has few small
pecularities of which advantage may be
taken. In wild, neavy woodland, his
original haunt, he has n weakness for
two things-an old tote road, or any sell
dom-used road, and the bank of stream.
A man trying bit of woods with which
he is unacquainted probably VIII see
more grouse near an old road than any
where else. In billy country, the lower
best Of ground. In level country, the
long strips of thicket bordering large
blocks of standing timber are ideal
places, and if the thicket happens 10
mark the edge of clover field so mucn
the better. Never pass even small
thicket which stands out in clover held
with wood upon any side. Grouse are
fond of clover, and until winter sets IN
are apt to be in any fair shelter near the
field. Later, in snowtime, the borders
and interior of large woodland swamps
are the chosen places. Ii there be
region of thick, lowlying forest. having
close grown beech ridges here and there.
these surely will repay the labor of beat
ing them, for they are almost certain to
be the stronghods Of all the rutfed
grouse of the neighborhood. Old Wild
falls and slashings are good, because
they afford acres of the sort of shelter
the birds prefer in cold weather. Should
a single bird flush, proceed warily and
ready for instant action, for a second,
and perhaps three or four, stragglers may
be within gunshot of the spot. Ground
good for one bird may be as attractive to
three or four, although each individual
remains some slight distance from the
others. When beating border Tickets
with comradc. | prefer to work in the
cover about along the line where thiCket
and forest join. Most men will choose
the outside, but ruifer grouse almost in
variably dash for the wood. hence across
the line OF fire of the inside man. Such
shots are none too easy, and trees have
knack of getting in the way, yet as a
general thing the inside position means
the most fun.-Outing.

WATCH OF MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS.
Heirloom Treasured by Descendants of
Mary Setoun, Favorite Maid.

The descendants of Mary Setoun, one
of the four maids of honor TO Mary
Queen of Scots, have in their possession
a curious watch, which was given by
that queen to her fayorte. The watch,
which is in the shape OF n miniature
skull is about two inches and a half IN
diameter. 1t is supposed to have been
purchased by Mary herself when on n
visit TO BloiS with her husband, the
dauphin of France. as il has the name
of celebrated Blois manufacturer eu-
graved on II.
The entire skull is curiously engraved.
On the forehead there is a picture Of
death, with the usual scythe and hour
glass. He is depicted as standing be-
tween palace and howell, TO show that
he is no respecter of persons, and under
meath is the familiar quotation from
Horace: "Pallida mors aequo pulsat pede
pauperum tabernas kegumque turres."
At the back of the skull is another rep
resentation, this one being of time de
vouring everything. Time also carries n
scythe and beside him is the emblem OF
eternity-the serpent with its tail in its
mouth
The upper section of the skull is divid-
ed into two pictures. On one side is the
crucitixion with the Marys kneeling at
the foot of the cross, and on the other
side are Adam and Eve surrounded by
animals in the garden of Eden.
Below these pictures, running right
round the skull. there is an openwork
band, to allow the sound Of the striking
of the watch TO be heard, The Openwork
is n series of designs cut to represent the
various emblems OF the crucihXIou. such
as scOurges, the cross, swords, spears,
the lantern used in the garden. and so
forth. All of the carvings have appro-
pirate Latin quotations
BY reversing the skull and holding .hc
upper part in the palm Of the hand and
lifting the under jaw on its hinges the
watch may be opened aud on the plate
inside is a representation of the stable at
Bethlehem, with the shepherds and their
tlocks in the distance
The works of the watch are in the
brains OF the skull. the dial plate being
where the roof of the mouth would be in
n real skull. This is of silver and gold,
with elaborate scrolls, while the hours
are marked in large Roman letters The
works are remarkably complete. even IN
q large silver bell with musical sound,
which holds the works in the skull when
the watch is closed.
This curious old watch is still in per
feet order and when wound every day
keeps accurate time. 1t is too large 10

desk or private altar-Tit- Bits.

Story of Robins Thu. Went Fishing

An extraordinary incident was wit
messed recently by a sportsman at
Bicester.
Noting a party of five robins foraging
about among the pebbles in the bed of a
small stream, from which they constantly
few onto neighboring wall carrying
some live object in their beaks, he fol
lowed a bird to its perch Kicking about
on the top of the wall he found a small
stickleback
Retiring few yards he then kept
watch. and found that the birds captured
their prey and held it crosswjse after the
fashion Of kingtisher. But they made
no attempt to kill their victims before
eating them, as the kingiisher does.-Lon-
