Rad WAY to Break a cole.


A great many people believe that
the only way to break colt is to
throw him, hobble him or tangle him
with straps or ropes. An Indiana horse
man tells how he prepares colt for
his first visit to the blacksmith's shop
by putting a strap around his neck.
passing it along the near side and be.
tween the hind legs, then up and
through the strap around the neck and
back to his hind leg. The idea Is to
hold on to this strap while you lift
the colts leg, and If he kicks Or strug-
giles pull on the strap until he falls
down. This Is an excellent way of
frightening colt half to death, and
rendering him vicious. Every colt
ought to be handled in such way
until, by the time he is year old. bis
feet can be picked up easily and with
out the aid of straps or ropes. The
best appliances for breaking colts are
the naked hands and a good halter.

Checking Root Gall.

When new apple trees are received
from the nursery they should be care
fully inspected to make sure that they
are not affected with root gall. This
disease is now very prevalent in some
nurseries, and great care must be exer-
cised 1t is a disease, that spreads
through the soil, and a single tree
may introduce it into an orchard,
where it may undo the work Of years.
We have several times illustrated root
gall in these columns, and it does moi
seem advisable to repeat the illustra-
ton at this time Suffice it to say
that it is gall appearing on the roots,
and any tree affected with protuber-
ance Of this kind should be discarded.
This is the first thing to be looked out
for in planting trees. The shape Of the
tree is important, but it is less i'm.
portant than to know whether or not
the tree has disease that will prove
deadly to itself and to other trees in
the same orchard.

AMERICAN ARCHERY SCORES.

Best of Reasons Why England Holds
UnequaIed Records in This Sport.
The scores made by American arch
ers have never equaled the best Eng
hsh scores, for the sufficient reason
that the sport has never been practiced
in this country to the same extent,
either in point of time or in the num-
Der of those who engage in 1t, as in
England, where for more than CEN
tury past target shooting has been
steadily and consistently pursued by
gentlemen Of leisure and by ladies',
who have developed a high degree of
skill. There have, however, been some
very creditable American scores. The
best American score at national
meeting. made by Col. Robert Will
liams, Jr., at Eaton, Ohio, in 1885, at
the double York round (995) is bare
| ly short of the 1000 mark which is al
ways classed as a notable score by
| English archers. The American cham
pionship scores made at the national
meetings have usually ranged between
600 and 800. In 1903 the score was
S53; in 1902, 6O2. L. w. MaxweIps
TX championship scores have ranged
rom 713 to 768. w. H. Thompson's
best championship score is 76O. Col
Williams has twice exceeded score OF
100 at national meeting.
It seems needless to say that Amer
cans, If they choose to apply them
elves, could excel in archery. Marks
nanship is an instinct with Americans
nd, with natural aptnees. all that Il
urther necessary is PEI ering prac
ice and observation of the new funda
mental rules which govern correc
method. The requirements for a goot
hrcher, as stated by Ascham, are "apt
ness, knowledge and use. Pc Century.

Convenient Pig Pen Front.

Convenient Pig Pen Front.
The Illustration herewith shows
convenient pig-pen front. The feed
trough is securely fastened at the
front side of the pen, and the side Or
wall Of the pen is hinged at the top
so it will swing over the trough. An
iron rod is passed through the bot
tom cross-piece and inserted in another
hole In either edge of the trough.
When feeding, the rod is lifted, the
gate swung back. and the rod is
dropped in the hole in the back edge
Of the trough. To let the pigs eat, the
gate Is swung toward the feeder, and
the rod pushed down into the hole III
outside edge of trough. Such an ar
