Rules Governing Horse Sales.

The rules, covered very generally
by statute law of the various States,
summarized by one of our horse ex-
changes are as follows:
The rules governing the present
popular system of selling horses at
auction at combination sales should
be thoroughly considered and under
stood by all prospective consignors.
They usually are very similar to the
following: A horse sold sound must
be perfectly sound in every way. A
horse sold serviceably sound must
be virtually sound horse. His
wind and eyes must be good, not
lame or sore in any way; the horse
must be sound, barring slight blem-
ishes. These blemishes must not con-
stitute any unsoundness, and must
be nothing more than splints, slightly
pulled and a little rounding on the
curb joints; above all, he must not
have a bad looking curb, and must
not have a brand.
He may be a little out in the
knees, but must not stand over on
the knees or ankles. He may have
a little puff on the outside of the
hook, but must not have thorough
pin or boggy hook, ring-bone or jack,
although he may naturally be little
coarse jointed, and front part Of
hooks must not be puffed.
He may have slight scars or wire
marks, but these must not cause any
deformity of the body, legs or feet,
and nothing more than a slight scar.
He must not have any scar from fis-
tula or poll evil. He cannot have
a hip down, and if one hip is 2 trifle
lower than the other, it must be
natural, and no deformity like the
cap of hip down. He must not have
sidebones or any bad blemishes that
will depreciate his value more than
a trife, but must be sound, barring
slight blemishes that do not hurt
him or change his value but very
little, and in no case more than the
above mentioned blemishes. Car
bruises must be of a temporary ma
ture.
A horse sold to wind and work
must have good wind, be a good
worker, and not a cribber, and every
thing else goes with him.
A horse sold for work only must
be a good worker, and everything
else goes with him.
A horse sold at the halter is sold
just as he stands without any recon-
mend. In all cases horse must full
fill the bill as announced when sold.
Whether it is single or double,
horses must have all the other quail
ties recommended by the auctioneer
when on sale. An horse proving
different from the way he is repres
sented can be rejected on examina-
ton of the buyer, which must be on
the day Of the sale or within the re-
quired time, according to the rules
and customs of that particular con-
cern.-Indiana Farmer. 49,.

bined that serviceable outing suits,
jackets, skirts and many other ar

be called, is cream colored, and may
be washed without injuring the

ridiculously small price. Sufficient

A SMALL SECRET
Couldn't Understand the Taste OF MS
Customers.

Two men were discussing the
various food products now being sup
piled in such variety and abundance.
One, a grocer, said II frequently:
try a package or so Of any certain
article before Offering it to my trade,
and in that way sometimes form
different idea than my customers
have.
For instance, 1 thought I would /!
try Postum Food Coffee, to see what
reason there was for such call 1or
II. At breakfast didn't like 1t and
supper proved the same, so natur-
ally concluded that my taste was dil-
ferent from that of the customers
who bought it right along.
A day or two after, waited on
lady who was. buying a Csc package
and told her / couldn't understand
how one could fancy the taste OF Pos
tum.
4 know just what is the matter
she said, you put the coffee boiler
on the stove for just fifteen minutes,
and ten minutes Of that time 1t SIM
mered, and perhaps five minutes 1t
boiled, now if you will have 1t left
to boil full fifteen minutes after 1t
commences to boil, you will find q
delicious Java-like beverage, rich IN

don it, particularly when you see the
great gain in health. Well, I TOOK

Horse Collar Attachment.

Horse collars of the type that open
at the top are generally constructed
with the upper edges formed of
leather binding pieces that are
sewed across. The stitches soon be-
come worn, and the seam rips, the
straw at the top of the collar pro-
truding. A horse-collar attachment,
designed to avoid these disadEari-
tages, is shown here. The horse COL
lar may be of any of the ordinary

some task is to instill fractions into
the youthful mind. In the illustra-
ton a device for facilitating the
teaching of fractions is shown. 1t
consists of a sphere divided into
halves, and the halves again divided
into a number of segments. The
sphere is supported on wires on a
frame, the Individual section being
prevented from rotating, but can,
nevertheless, be moved and separated
from each other. The sphere can be
quickly divided into halves, quarters
and eighths, and the pupil given a
practical demonstration of what
seems to him an intricate problem

Pruning Trees.

~ Do not allow your trees to waste
a large amount of their energy on
the development of unnecessary
branches. Thow their vitality into
those which are to remain. But do
not go at the work of pruning until
you have looked the tree over from
all sides and satisfied yourself exactly
what needs doing. Never prune on
the haphazard system, or from a
Asense of duty" Prune for results
that stand for improvement. Aim
to preserve a proper balance of head
without producing stiff, formal
effect. Cut out weak wood, Wher-
ever found, even if it does somewhat
disturb symmetrical outlines. The
development of healthy branches
will enable you to correct this fault
later. Thin out the branches, where
too thick, to allow a free circula-
tion of air. 1t is a most excellent
plan to cover every cut that is made
with a thick coat of paint. This pre-
vents unnecessary loss of sap, ex-
cludes rain, keeps away insects and
assists the wound to heal rapidly.

STUDENTS ORGANIZE

Valparaiso, Ind. Dec. Especially
The bi-monthly issue of the Valparaiso
University Herald, issued Friday,
among other things contains an ar
ticle concerning the Students Protec-
tive association, which has been or
ganized evidently in the interests of
students who get into trouble.
According to the Herald the organi-
zation has recently adopted a consti-
tuition and bylaws and has engaged
Attorney Crumpacker and Daily as
counsel to see that the members rights
are protected.
Any student may join the associa-
ton without charge, there being no
dues. Members are now taking up a
collection among the students and
business men for the defense OF some
of their companions whose trials will
come up in the near future The Her
aid evidently refers to the students
who were arrested Halloween night
for striking Marshal Matt Brown and
for rioting. The students report lib
eral response to their appeal for funds.
