AWAY WITH HITCHING POSTS.
Why They Should BE Abolished and
sheds Provided In Their Place.


sheds Provided In Their Place.
Clarke NJ. Drake of Prattsburg, n.
Y, who wants the village hitching post
abolished. writes as follows to the
Farm Journal:
To many a horse the hitching post
becomes a freezing post. 1t will have
to go as did the old time whipping
post.
In the gales that often sweep
through the principal business streets
of village or town blanket will not
ordinarily stay on horse. If sud
den rain comes up. the men and wom-
en- seek shelter, but the horses have TO
soak. The horses are fastened TO a
post. and no one could blame them for
breaking away and finding a place
which their faithful service has pur-
chased. Many of them are driven hard
to and from the village and severely
suffer at the post from this effects of
wind and storm.
In return for slackness in not pro-
viGing sheds for the horses the village
people have to endure a stable cdOr on
their streets whenever the weather is
right for it. These odors drift into
the stores. and when the droppings are
dry and fine the winds blow the par
ticles in also.
Some villages provide well built
sheds with feed managers, where horses
may not only enjoy freedom from wind
and rain. but also have the protection
Of their blankets and the pleasure of
eating a bite before returning home.
If goods are purchased, they may be
placed in the vehicle and be kept as
dry as when they came from the store
till the owner is ready to go home. 1t
is very unpleasant to think of riding
home sitting on a wet cushion and un-
der wet blankets.

Mysterious Popularity Attaches to
This AllurInG Nook.
Most houses of the slightest preten-
sion have favorite room. Popularity
Is its distinguishing feature. 1t need
neither be the smartest nor the largest
nor the best furnished. but is possess
ed of attractions that are entirely in
dependent of the painter or upholster-
err The builder may have had a say
in it, however. and the architect.
1t is much easier to describe the ''fa-
voriter room negatively than positive
ly, but the whole genus have one
marked peculiarity-they grow into
what they are of themselves. No one
was ever so clever rs to make favor
lite room by trying 10 do so. The thing
is impossible. Favorite rooms become
what they are of their own accord. t,
Very often they begin quite humbly;
that is. they rise in life like soldiers
from the ranks. In novels the favor
ite'' room has nearly always the same
origin. 1t was once the nursery, and
ends by being an apartment sacred to
raffy pulling by the heroine and her
brothers and sisters, but in real life
superaanuated nurseries are generally
refurnished and turned into smart
boudoirs or extra bedrooms for the
growing-up family. One thing. the ia
vOrite room is never by any chance a
gloomy room.
Indeed, it is altogether alluring. Ball
frocks for the young ladies were run
up in it and always came out success
full; students for the stiffest examina-
tons read up' III it and never failed
to pass In short, the room was as
comfortable as it could be, and good
luck appeared to cling to any of those
who took it into their heads TO use it.
