Weak Points in a Horse.

The weak points of horse can
better be discovered while stand
ing than while moving. If he is
sound he will stand firmly and
squarely on his limbs without
moving any of them, with legs
plump and naturally poised. If
one foot is thrown forward with
the toe pointing to the ground and
the weight taken from 1t, disease
may be suspected, or at least ten.
derness, which is a precursor Of
disease. If the horse stands with
his feet apart or straddles with
the hind legs, there is weakness
IN the loins and the kidneys are
deranged. Heavy pulling bends
the knees. Blush Or milky cast
eyes in horses indicate moon blind
ness or something else. A bad
tempered horse keeps his ears
thrown back. A kicking horse is
apt to have SCARED knees. A
stumbling horse has blemished
knees. When the skin is rough
and hard, and does not move cas-
lily and smoothly to the touch, the
horse Is heavy eater and his di,
gestion Is bad. Never buy horse
whose respiratory organs are at
allimpaired. Placeyour ear at the
side OF the heart, and if wheez.
ing is heard, it Is an indication of
trouble-let him go.

Failure Due to Inexperience.

The man that generally fails in
poultry raising is the NOVICE, who
begins the raising of poultry on
account of the glowing accounts
he has seen of the ease with which
it is done, and the enormous pro-
tits to be made, says an exchange.
Millions of men have figured
themselves rich on chickens. 1t
merely requires knowledge of
the science OF numbers. Ifa hen
lays a hundred eggs a year, and
fifty of the chickens are pullets,
and they in turn lay hundred
eggs a year, 1T takes but little
while to figure out enormous re
turns from a small investment.
The unfortunate thing about the
problem is that things do not
work out in practice as they do on
paper. With the beginner IN
poultry raising, ignorance is the
first obstacle, but with many 1t
proves to be so large an obstacle
that the attempt to raise poultry
Is not continued. To successful.
ly raise poultry requires large
amount acknowledge, which must
be acquired partly by experience.

It is suggested by the Rev George F. Glover
perintendent of St Lukes Hospital. that 1T might
be a good thing for the city to take charge of all
the public ambulance work The suggestion
made when his attention called to the article
in The Tribune yesterday the lack of system
in the hospitals in the city and the abuses that
arise from the present ambulance system
st. Lukes does not have public ambulance
service" he said but l believe that the voluntary
hospitals with such service do all they possibly

those suffering from acute diseases or In need OF
surgical treatment. Thus it becomes necessary to
transfer patients to the public institutions. think
# would be good idea for the city to have charge
OF all the ambulances and establish system of
receiving stations throughout the city, where the
patients could be taken. and from which they could
be sent TO such hospitals as were able TO receive
them
Mr.. Glover said that the suggestion of such a
form would not properly come within :he power

Mr.. Glover also said that fair topic might be
the question as TO whether there should be any
distinction in the wards between those who cannot
pay anything and those who pay a moderate fee.
according to their means.
In st. Luke's there IS no distinction In the
wards; he said' THE patient who has private
room is the only one who reimburses the institu

sibly some hospitals could not do st. Luke's.
