New York City.-Just at this time
while pessimists who tremble at the
mere mention of Wall Street are
looking for financial stringency, New
York hotels are reaping a harvest
from an army of men whose predic-
tions reflect the financial conditions
better than can any rise or depres-
sion of securities. This legion repre-
sents the merchants of the eEtire con-
tinent.
1t is a conservative estimate to say
that S5,500,000 has been spent in
New York City by this buying and
selling commercial army, in small ad-
vance orders, in living expenses and
in amusement, for the daily expedi-
lures of a majority of the visitors
have been very heavy.
You may use Wall Street here as
a bugaboo with which to frighten
Fifth avenue and to keep Newport
meek at times,' said Ernest Jackson,
at the Cadillac, but the American
people don't tremble at the mention
of the name any more. The talk of
an approaching panic, while it seems
to make New York feel glum, is
sooffed at by those who appreciate
the real resources of the nation and
VINO feel that panic cannot come
even if the money kings try to create
one."
Mr.. Jackson has for years been
among the chief Southern travelling
men of Arnold, Constable Co., touch
ing on his travels the principal cities
and towns of fourteen Southern
States.
SCOTS at Talk of Panic.
IF there is a panic coming. as
those who see trouble where no trou-
BILE exists predict" said he, 'it will
be due solely to that fear which
causes a child to look into the dark
hall for bear. The men of Wall
Street do not any more hold the
money power in their hands. What
IL they do get together and say there
is stringency? That doesn't alter
the fact that Texas will grow 4,0OO,-
900 bales of cotton, worth at present
prices $3.50, 100000, and that the
other cotton-growing States will add
100000 additional bales, worth
$3.50. 100000.
Think what that crop alone
means to the country. A 5000, 0,000,-
900 cotton crop means prosperity for
the South. That is an enormous sum
of money - within $3.50, 100000 of
the debt of New York City"

Chick CIlirps.

Corn meal is poor feed for little
chicks, at least until they are several
weeks old.
Hulled oats are one of the best
available foods for little chicks, es-
pecially the first few weeks.
Wheat screenings are good any
time, and cost little ON the average
farm.
Don't forget about those sudden
storms and thunder showers Have
some ready means of escape available
to the chicks.
Keep the chicks busy. The best
way is to scatter seeds and small
grains in litter, making the chicks
scratch and hunt for them.
Too low a temperature in the
brooder, improper food and inju-
dicious feeding-each plays an i'm
portant part in producing bowel dis
orders.
If you stuff the little chicks while
they're alive. you'll soon have plenty
of dead ones you can stuff you
feel like it.
After your chicks are few days
old, give them a chance each day to
eat grass. 1t will do them more good
than all the patent "chick growers"
and other stimulants you can buy in
year.
Tame chickens are more pleasure
able and more profitable than wild
ones. And there is no earthly excuse
why ones fowls should be otherwise.

gent animal he can be trained so that
he will be helpful in many ways. The
dogs place is primarily around the
house. l do not believe he should
go upon the road with a team. If
he is useful he will not be in the field
much of the time.
The Scotch collie is the ideal farrs
dog. He is intelligent and well adapt
ed to the farm house. l have known
we'll several of these dogs. We had
one ourselves and our neighbor has
one now. Both of these showed an
extreme degree of intelligence. Our
dog was more of pet. although he
knew in a moment when anything
was wrong around the place. He
never went away from home with a
team, and he spent little OF his time
in the field. He watched the chicken
yard closely, and whenever a fowl
gave the warning that hawk was in
view he was up and ready to chase it
away. Just as sooh as he could catch
sight of the bird he would begin run
ming around under it and barking
vigorously. Very few of our chickens
were taken during his lifetime. II
any of the stock got out of place be-
cause the fences were down or gates
left open, he knew in a moment and
did his best to get them back or in
form us. He was very fond of the
children and never showed any signs
of snappishness. AS a watch dog the
collie will be of great help. The

in the daytime and at night, and If
she has such a guardian she feels

Using Three Horses.

In the Eastern States is is not
often that we see more than two
horses harnessed together, except on
the binder Yet it would sometimes
be profitable to use three horses for
farm work. I have often found 1t
great advantage to use such a team
on pillow or harrow; have used them
on a stoneboat, and also on a wagon
in hauling manure.
To use three horses on a wagon you
must have an offset iron on the
tongue or else use a double tongue
made for this purpose. A three-horse
evener may be made by any handy
man. Have fiftyAone inches between
the end holes; seventeen inches from
one end hole bore the hole for the
draw pin.
Three horses make an even, steady
team to draw plow or a spring-tooth
harrow. If you have some big stones
to haul on a stoneboat they will work
to much better advantage than two
horses, or one team ahead of another.
On some of our hilly farms there
are a few fields which seldom receive
much manure, because it is such slow
work hauling it up there; at least
this used to be the case at home. II
you use three horses and the hills are
1ot too steep, you can haul good
'ads, and get the manure where you
\ ant it. / have seen threa-horse
teams used for long hauls on the
roads where there were some steep
hills to be climbed, the work being
performed at much less cost than it
could have been done with two-horse
teams.-John Upton, in the Country
Gentleman.
