THE BIG HEAVY DRAFT HORSE.

We are inclined to think the big
draft horse an American idea for large
size. but the leading Shire horse sires
and prize winners weigh over a ton
and stand II hands or over. Our i'm
porters are buying larger and better
stations at higher prices than ever
before to suit the demand for big
heavy draft stations to breed big
geIdings for the market. Our city mar
kets want big draft geldings, but the
following from the English Live Stock
Journal shows that Liverpool and Lon
don have them still larger.
Probably the question whether the
height of horse i2tended for heavy
draught work in the cities is 16 h. 2

rarely interferes with the making Of a

THE GARDEN.

Has the garden been productive this
year! If it has not done we'll the cause
should be looked for. Perhaps it Is
not fertile enough, in which case the
remedy is obvious. 1t may be that it is.
too rich. That is different matter,
possible. though it must be confessed
that it is not often probable Stable
manure applied 10 excess year after
year will bring about this result. This
is not likely to happen on a farm. The
uses for manure are too many there.
But. on village lot, where horse and
perhaps a COW are kept, Sae manure
may be used too plentifully for the
sake Of saving il, like the nSn who
eats everything on the table so as 10
