Judging Live stock.

In the fat stock shows, and also in
the large stock yards, experts can
quickly select the best animals for the
butcher, and, according to the ability
Of the judge, he should be assisted to
select an animal by the sense of feel
ing, and, In judging cattle, the touch,
as well as the eye, is, therefore, brought
into requisition. Except in regard to
certain points of conformation and col
or, some experts are by no means sure
that touch is not the most important
qualification. The skin and the flesh
can only be fully examined by touch or
handling in ascertaining if the bones
are well covered with flesh, and also
if the latter is soft to the touch and
ample in quantity on the examined
points. The squeeze of the palm of the
hand is not 50 delicate as the touch Of
the tips of the fingers; the former as
certains the quantity. the latter judges
the quality. The touch may be hard or
mellow, thin or harsh, good or bad, as
it is frequently termed. A slow feeder
is said to be marked by having thick
set, hard, short hair, which constitutes
a bad touch; a thin, meager, papery
skin, covered with thin, silky hair,
though opposite of the one just men,
toned, does not constitute good touch,
but is indicative of weakness Of con-
stitution, though probably of good
breeding qualities. A good touch will
be found in a thick, loose skin, on a
layer of soft fat, yielding to the least
pressure, spring back toward the fin
gers like piece of soft, thick chamois
leather, and covered with thick, soft
glossy hair, which looks rich and beau
tiful and seems warm ard comfortable
L, the animal. a curly pile of soft hair
indicates a vigorous constitution and
also a propensity to fatten. The sensa.
ton of fine touch is very gratifying
to the handler; the animal is liked,
and more especially If it is accompan-
led by a symmetrical form. Long prac-
tice is required to appreciate fine
touch.

DenounceS Cross-BreedfuE

At recent live stock meeting in
Topeka, in the ross-breeding of the
Shorthorn cows with a Hereford bull,
Col. J. w. Robson denounced it as
a step backward. He said:
Take the best Shorthorn bull In
America and the best COW of any other
breed and cross them and you have In
their produce destroyed the quality
and value of both breeds. You have
introduced the system Of scrub breed
ing, and you cannot correct or undo in
a lifetime what you were able to &C
complish in one illy-advised cross.
LAS to the color in certain breeds,
Shorthorn cattle, Percheron horses,
etc, 1 disprove the color idea entirely
as having anything to do in indicating
quality in the animal. In horses the
demand is for black color west of the
Missouri river and gray back east in
Illinois, Ohio and Pennsylvania. One
is as good as the other color, only
matter Of fancy. We must raise pure
bred stock on our high-priced land.
The scrub animal will not pay, and
the cross breed is nothing but scrub
when viewed from a breeding stand
point.
SIN Shorthorn cattle the color will
not materially affect the quality Of the
animal, because all colors-red, white,
roam. red and white or spotted-prevail,
and the matter of color in this breed
of cattle Is fad or fancy. Amy one
of these colors or all of them may
come from the same parents"

The tonsils are two collections of
gland-like structures at the back part
Of the mouth, one on each side, be-
tween the pillars of the palate It is
not known what purpose they serve.
Some have supposed that they arrest
the germs of disease which may be in
hailed or taken in with the food; but
they evidently can catch very few of
the germs which rapidly pass them in
the food or water or In the air which
is inhaled; and it is we'll they cannot,
for theJ are themselves very suscept-
Idle to disease, as some sufferers know
to their sorrow. Others have thought
they serve an evil purpose, acting as
portals Of entry for many disease
germs into the body.
The tonsils are very liable to be-
come inflamed This condition consti.
tutes tonsilitis, or, when an abscess
forms, quinsy. Young persons, over
fifteen and under thirty, are most SUBJ
Ject to inflammation of the tonsils, al
though children and even those we'll
along in life may suffer- 1t occurs
with special frequency in those whose
tonsils are enlarged, and usually in
persons who are run down" in gem
eral health, or in whom the power of
resistance has been lowered as re-
suit of worry or overexertion. The
extra study in preparing for a diff
cult examination in school or college
and the anxiety concerning the result
not uncommonly bring on an attack of
quinsy, especially in those of a social.
ed rheumatic tendency.
There are various kinds of tonsilli-
It's, but the symptoms of all are quite
similar in the beginning. The patient
feels i'll, has chilly sensations, loss of
appetite, more or less headache, per-
haps, constipation, feverishness, and a
feeling OF discomfort or actual pain
In the throat. Soon the fever becomes
high, the throat is dry, swallowing is
painful, there is often more or less
earache, and the patient seems to be
seriously i'll. Suppuration may or may
not occur The pain and throbbing
are most severe when it does.
The attack lasts usually from two or
three days to a week, and is apt to
terminate quite suddenly, although if
but one tonsil has been affected. re-
covery may be delayed by an extern
sion of the Inflammation to the other
tonsil. In that case the whole tire
some process must be gone through
with again. The disease is almost al
ways serious enough to require the
physicians care, for the treatment
calls for internal remedies as well as

How to Treat Garden Soil.

There is no other piece Of ground
that has to grow such a variety OF
crops as the garden patch. 1t is hard
to find a small plot that will be ideal
for all plants. There are plants like
the tomato, melon and bean that would
likewise be benefited by such soil.
There are others, such as late cabbage,
parsnips, beets and other slow-growing
plants, that would be better on heavy
soil with a north slope.
AS a light soil is more apt to dry
out in midsummer, it is advisable to
have water handy, to turn on if nee
essary or to give constant cultivation
to form a dust mulch in case the land
is to be occupied in midsummer. By
planting to have the extra early truck
on the sandy south slope it will be gone
in time to put melons, early sweet corn
and similar crops on the same ground.
The garden soil should be rich.
Fine, well-rotted manure will give rich
ness and humus If the sand pit is
handy the farmer can haul few loads
when not busy and scatter that over a
portion of the garden if it needs warm
ing up. By all means keep the soil in
fine filth, so the wheel hoe will work
easily. Poultry and sheep manure are
good for the garden. Coarse manure
or weed stalks half plowed under are
an abomination and cause much loss
of time and crops.

HEART OF The STORM
N~~~0~~


Tramp, tramp, tramp, came the rest
less tread of a man overhead. Down
the hills swept the wind, the little,
brown house rocked and swayed and
John Montgomery and his wife drew
their chairs nearer the cheerful blaze.
Poor Bennie," sighed the wife.
Yes, poor Bonnie, strange contrast
to this old man, sitting before the
glowing CRATE, with his dark, piercing
eyes, and masses OF iron-gray hair
tossed back from q broad, intellectual
forehead. He, with those lips which
could be so stern and unyielding, now
.softened into brooding tenderness by
memories that came thronging in
strange contrast to the wild surging of
the storm without, would never bow to
fate as bad the man above.
The room abounded in light and
warmth and color. From the richly
decorated walls to the soft crimson car
pet beneath their feet, everything de-
noted wealth, taste and culture. Beau
tiful pictures hung on the walls, a case
of choice books filled one corner of the
room, and the freight played on chairs
and tables of rare and exquisite work

Irrigatfng Sweet Corn.

One farmer in Winchester. Mass,
who grows ten acres of sweet corn,
plants his corn five feet apart. He irri-
gates the corn with water pumped by
one Of those pumps which deliver 100
600 GALLONS a day. He says it cost
him not over s. a day to supply the
water to the corn.
His corn rows are about 600 to 700
feet long, and the water will run from
one end of the piece to the other with
out going out Of sight. As soon as his
corn is picked, about the 18th or the
18th Of July, he sells the whole thing
to milkmen in the neighborhood, plows
the ground and plants it to celery five
feet apart, and he irrigates for the GEL
cry in the same way.
