THE LIVESTOCK.

1t is good plan to have the horses
and COWS clean up their managers after
each feed
Horses, like men, should be COM
fortably cared for if you desire to get
good results.
When lice get a foothold spray the
hogs; also spray the pens and burn
all the rubbish.
Sheep manure as fertilizer is
three times more valuable than that
dropped by cows
There is such thing as overfeed-
ing. Feed stock all the food they will
assimilate, but no more.
Never break a colt by a slow walk
err because he will fall into the same
habit; and habits, once formed, are
hard to break.
Horses do not need medicine unless
they are actually sick Good care and
good feed with proper exercise is what
they require most of all else
Hogs penned where they can get no
shade will not thrive and are more
susceptible to disease than if given
plenty of both shade and sunshine

He placed the original globe over

Keep Horse Collar Clean.

By allowing dirt and hair to collect
under the collar and remain there
from one day to another, sore Shout
ders are caused. Improperly fitting
collars will produce the same results.
Use none other than a perfect fitting
collar. If you do not understand fit
ting the collar take an experienced
man with you when you visit the har-
ness store. Always use good pad
one that contains no Jumps in the
padding or that has padding that can
not be easily detached and moved
into Jumps under the collar. Then
keep the shoulders clean. 1t is good
plan to wash the horses shoulders
every evening after removing the har
ness. The application of cold water
not only cools the fevered skin, but ii
also hardens the flesh so it can resist
greater pressure the next day.

CATTLE KILLING DEVICE.
Humane Substitute Introduced ir
Scotland-Gun Instead of Ak,

Consul Maxwell Blake reports that
in spite of much initial opposition on
the part of Scotch cattle killers of the
poleax style, a new device is being in
troduced in the Dunfermline slaugh-
ter house as human substitute for
the old style of killing. The consul
describes the new instrument as fol-
lows:
The weapon is about foot in
length. The barrel is rifled and the
muzzle shaped like the mouth of a
bell and angled in order to adapt it,
self to the slope of a bullock's head.
By unscrewing the opposite end from
the muzzle the cartridge may be in
serted. The breech piece having been
readjusted, there is a steel guard pro-
tecting the hammer, which sets off the
bullet. This guard is not displaced
until the weapon is about to be used.

Mixed Stocks in Trade,

The complex functions of drug

Persons go into drug stores ready to
ask for almost anything and confident
that they will be served One drug
gist who has store up near Columbia
university says his stock of crackers
is one of the most profitable invest
ments, because students seem to pre.
fer to go to him rather than to a
grocer, although they pay more for
crackers to him.
But when cigar stores go outside
the line of tobacco, pipes, cigars and
smokab,es generally, it still seems a
little odd. Some cigar stores have
taken on side line of watches, which
is about as odd thing as a store If
the kind might be expected to do

SPEED OF DRAFT HORSES.
While Not a Good Road Horse He
Should Be Good Traveller.

1t is generally said that the draft
horse is not meant for speed, that he
is meant merely to pull great loads.
But the farmers of this country long
ago decided that the draft horse must
have good ability to get over the
ground. In this, draft horses of the
same breed differ greatly.
In the breeding of draft horses, this
quality is being looked after some,
but it is mainly when the breeder ex.
poets to use the horses produced. For
sale purposes little attention has yet
been paid to the speed of the draft
horse.
The speed of walking is more impor-
tant with the draft horse than the
speed of running, for most of the real
service by the draft horse is rem.
dered at a walk. The fast walking
draft horse is in demand.

Rather a morbid fancy, that. Played

and laid aside the pipe. Suddenly he
whipped off the globe, and donning
his hat and overcoat he rushed down

under his arm. 1t was a frosty eve
