STOCK
Frakes Buys More Fine Blood.

Mr.. P. A. Frakes, proprietor of the
Lakeside Stock Farm at ScappooSe,
Ore, has been in Minnesota on a pur-
chasing tour and returned fortnight
ago with a carload of high class Hol-
stems, some of which will apear on
the fall fair circuit of the northwest
this year. Mr.. Frakes secured nine OF
the highest class cattle that could be
found, among which are the following:
Sir Mechthilde Jewel 32732, first prize
and junior champion at the Minnesota
state fair, first prize yearling and
reserve champion at the st. Louis ex-
position, and until sold to Mr.. Frakes
head of the first prize young herd in
the country; Chloe Mechthilde 1855,
fourth prize COW at the st. Louis ex-
position, dam of the first prize yearling
bull and second prize two-year-old
heifer; Virgo Beauty 4th's De kol
65S76, first prize yearling heifer at ST
Louis exposition, also junior champion
heifer and reserve grand champion OF
females. These three were bought
from John B. Irwin, the Minneapolis
breeder of Holstein-Friesians, and cost
Mr.. Frakes $500, $500 and $3.50, res
pectively. In becoming the owner OF
such valuable animals Mr.. Frakes
places himself in position to furnish
his customers with any of the lead
ing butter strains that they may de-
sire. He has the blood Of all the great
families in the Holstein breed and is
adding to his herd the best he can
get.

The So-CalIed Arabian Horse.
One of the readers Of Wallace's Far
mer sent in the following query:
"Kindly inform me of the origin Of the
Arabian horse, if he is pedigreed, and
if there is any Arabian horse registry"
The reply that the editor penned must
have depressed the enthusiasm of those
who have so-called Arabian horses.
This is what he said: ''The Arabian
horse, as a distinct breed, is altogether
a myth. There is no stud book and
hence no recorded pedigrees. Two
noted horses found their way at an
early day into England, called the God
olphin Arabian and the barley Ara
bian, but there is no evidence whatever
that either of these horses came from
Arabia. In fact, Arabia is not natural
ly horse country, but is prominently
camel country, ana the camel ana
the horse do not belong to the same en-
vironment. If any Of our readers
should quote the tales of the studs
of Solomon, from which the Arabian
horses are supposed to have descended,
we can only inform them that they are
myths. If they draw Ben Hur on US
and quote the chariot race, 1t Is only
necessary to say that there Is no evil
dence whatever of there being any
horses in Arabia for three hundred
and fifty years after that race is sup
posed to have occurred.
"This whole subject has been gone
into most thoroughly by the late John
H. Wallace. He has furnished the
most conclusive proof that the horses
supposed to be Arabian came from Ar
menia and Cappadocia, countries OF an
entirely different environment and re-
sembling quite closely other noted
horse growing districts.
"It is quite common to call any
spotted horse too light to pull and too
slow to trot, for want Of better name,
an Arabian. We have even known
farmers who have one cross Of Perche-
ron to adopt cross of this kind Tor
the purpose of getting speed. The
Arabian, so-called, is an excellent horse
to let alone, being neither fish, flesh,
nor good red herring"

Choosing a Work Horse.

George McKerrow, of Madison, WIS,
says: In choosing horse look for
weight and quality. The market, when
it talks about draft horse, means a
horse that when he is in good con-
dition weighs 1900 pounds or more,
and the more weight, when quality
goes with it, the higher price he will
bring. The horse of the draft type
that weighs less than 1900 pounds
drops into such classes as chunks, and
down to 1900 or 1900 pounds they are
called chunks If pretty, trim and
active, nervy and nicely finished, with
style, he will come into the class or
eXpresser, fire department horse, etc.,
for which there is more and more de-
mand, but they must be choice and full
of nerve Then there is the busser,
which they use on BUSES in foreign
countries, and to some extent in this
country. There is a demand growing
up for these smaller horses of the
draft type.
learned little adage when l was
a boy that has saved me some money
in dealing with horses and that is this:
"No feet, no horse" When I judge
horse, when I buy horse, when l
look at sire to use for breeding pur-
poses I really look down at his feet
first, then I look up at his top lines,
and then at the fat on his body.
You may buy horse that is not
quite perfect in body and his top lines,
and with plenty of care and corn and
clover hay and some molasses if neces-
sary (if you are going to let the
other fellow have him pretty soon),
you can fill up the weak places in his
body, but have never found any way
of filing up the places in his heels or
his hoofs. So, starting at his feet, l
want high, strong heel; heel that
will not spring as that horse moves
along on the road; I want full,
plump, well-rounded foot, not too mar
row at the heel and not too wide, Win
a good tough shell upon it, and that
shell thick and well fastened to the
body of the hoof. I want properly
sloping pastern, that is, pastern that
slopes possibly at ali angle of 40 de-
grees, or if you drop a plumb line
down the center of the leg, so that
your plummet will fall little behind
the heel When your horse travels
upon the road and strikes upon the
hard surface, either at a walk or trot,

Simply a Matter OF Iaste.
One of our readers asks why is IL
that there is such diversity OF opinion
among range men as to the improved
breeds best adapted to the western
range. Some of the cattlemen insist
that the Hereford is the only breed MT
to meet such conditions. Others are
as strongly partisans Of the Aberdeen
Angus and still others for the Short
horn or Galloway. We do not know
that there Is any more reason for sur
prise at this diversity Of opinion among
range men than among the farmers

THE iron MARKET
Weekly Resume Of the Great Iron
industries Of the Country.
MARKET REPORTED WEAKER

Noticeable Falling OFF for Manufactured
Products in Iron and Steel Noticeable
in the Great Manufacturing Industries
of the United States
New York, June S,--This has been an
uneventful week in all directions, says
the Iron Age. What is almost dead
lock between buyers and sellers of pig
iron continues, the only fair degree of
activity being in the Chicago district.
Virginia furnaces have sold there and in
st. Louis basic pig to the extent of about
1000 tons and inquiry for this class OF
iron is cropping up in other directions
The Birmingham market is weaker in
spite of the fact that there is some un.
easiness over the possibility OF troubles
with the coal miners.
The absence OF a demand for pig iron
by the large steel companies is causing
pressure upon the market on the part OF
merchant furnaces who usually supply
them and who are now accumulating met
| al.
The market for steel is easier and some
of the interests who have had little to
offer in the past are now hunting for bus
mess A moderate amount of additional
tonnage has come up in plates and shapes
Among the larger orders placed is one OF
10000 tons for a large industrial plant
in Milwaukee.
In the lighter lines the shading of the
prices continues and is becoming more
general. Black sheets have sold below
$2.25 for No. rs and some business in
iron bars has been secured only by con.
/ eessions. In the wire trade there has
been a slight Improvement in some quar-.
tiers.
Export sales are more actively pushed
in all directions and special efforts arc
being made to market more highly finish
ed material Thus quite a considerable
business in sheets for export has been
done lately.

DISCOUNT IS TOO GREAT
Goods Sold to Greece Paid in Deprecated
Currency Which Importers Claim
Should be Discounted About Sixty.two
Per Cent In American Money.

New York, June S.--A protest brought
By Chicago importers in which the stand.
ard of currency in Greece was brought up
has been oyerrullcd by the board OF
United States general appraisers. In
rendering decision for the board, Judge
Somerville declared that no allowance
can be made to importers on any impor'
tations for deprecated currency in the
absence OF currency certificate issued by
the American consul.
The importers claimed in their pro
test that the goods were purchased With
the deprecated paper currency OF Greece
and that it should have been taken by
the collector at a discount OF about w
per cent as compared with the standard
coin, drachma.
Judge Sommeryille pointed out, how
ever, the Importance of obtaining consul
lar certificates to show that such de.
probation is recognized officially and
must be attached to the invoice, as re-
ouired by the consular regulations. The
collectors valuation, which was based on
tables compiled by the director OF the
mint, was therefore upheld.
