Cannot Control Terrorists.

At present the central committee is
but one Of many branches, composed
of ten. six, and even three members.
and, although its authority is greater
than that of most others, it can no
longer command or forbid with the
certainty of being obeyed, as hereto
fore. The result is that murders are
daily attempted and. carried out by
small groups. These are so numerous
that large forces of vigilant police
could hardly prevent them.

may become militant assassins.

Give the Chef a Chance.

1t is LILY belief that the man who has
dined in the best Partisan restaurants
without finding them wonderful, says
Julian Street, is either dyspeptic or
a self reliant ignoramus who did not
give the chef chance. You know the
story of the miner who, having struck
II rfch," arrived In New York and,
anxious to do 1t right" went to Del
monico's for dinner. After studying
the menu with growing despair he
turned to a patient waiter with, Just

Some of our fellow countrymen give
similar performances In Paris. I have
known them to 60 to famous restau-
rants and order plain broiled chicken
or steak and fried potatoes dishes so
elemental that the greatest chef could
hardly cook them better than Maggie
In the fat at home could do 1t. A
Partisan chef broiling chicken makes
a pathetic figure. The asking him to
do so Is like requesting learned pro-
fessor Of higher mathematics to add

POINTS FOR THE
HORSE BREEDER.

In bulletin issued by the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin the writer, f. c.
Warren, the well known breeder. says
about the care and management of
stations: A few things that | consider
of great Importance are, first, before
using the stallion let him get some age.
No colt will breed as well as an old
horse, from eight to sixteen years old,
provided the horse has been properly
taken care of. Next, avoid all PAM
pering, both as to care and feed. Feed
and work him as you would any horse
not oyerheating or overeXerting him.
If not situated SO you can work or
drive him, have a good. roomy yard
where he can run and exercise at his
own free will. There are three things
that should be remembered that are
not conducive to fertility in the stall
lion or TO soundness. strength or Ion
gevity in his progeny-viz. idleness
pampering with unhealthful food and
putting him to service when too young
II these matters are observed and you
will limit your horse TO the proper
number of mares. you will get good
results.
AS to feed, we would give him lib
eral quantity of oats and bran, two
parts oats and one of bran, twice
day, and once daily through the mare
season a good feed Of boiled barley
with a little flaxseed cooked with it
Mix with bran and feed hot at night
This, with good timothy hay and suffi-
Client grass, should constitute his daily
feed, with perhaps few ears of corn
occasionally. Remember this one i'm
portant matter. keep your horse healthy
and as near nataral condition as pos
sible. To do this you must feed and
exercise him properly. This must be
continued all through the year. The
man who keeps his horse right just
through the mare season and then con-
fines and keeps him in an unhealthy
state all the rest Of the year will find
himself with an improbable stallion
in short time.
The Useful Hackney.
An old English breed still popular is
the hackney as bred for many years
for speed, endurance and style, says
American Cultivator. 1t is a full
breasted, short backed horse, rather
short legged and carrying head and
neck like the typical coach horse As
compared with other coach breeds, 1t
is rather more blocky and broader in
shoulder and rump. OF late years
breeders have aimed at d more stylish,
high stepping gait, sometimes to an
exaggerated degree.
The feet should be carried clear from
the ground and well raised at the knee

TOMATO VINES ON GRAPE TRELIIs.

In rows, braced at each end of the
field. Two wires only are used for
growing grapes. All vines are tied in
spring on lower wire about six feet
from the ground. The upper wire is
run on top Of posts, for the fruit canes
to be fastened to. In order to keep
the wind from breaking the canes of
in early summer all vines are summer
pruned, all weak or useless vines rub
bed off until all fine large punches are
set and bagged. After that all vines
are kept cut, only enough left to ripen
the grapes properly. Plenty of air Is
left between grapes and tomatoes. l
can assure you 1t Is beautiful sight
to see two totally different crops grow
ing on the same row.
'The diagram above shows grapes
and tomatoes grown on the same rows.
The tomatoes grow no higher than the
fourth wire from the bottom, which Is
four feet from the ground. The grape
vines are tied to the fifth wire and
then grow up and fall over the top
wire. All the wires are fastened by
cut wire staples. Grapevines are set
about fourteen feet apart, rows about
nine to ten feet apart. Strawberries
are grown between the rows, about
four rows OF berries between each two
rows OF grapes"
