Spring Horse Buylnu.

The spring horse-buying rush has
struck us again this year. Everybody
seems to want a new team of horses
or mules at this time Of the year. The
man who has any to sell does not
have to go out to make a sale Horse
buyers make beaten path to his
door. The man who is compelled to
buy at this season of the year must
pay the highest price in order to get
what he wants.
1t is an undisputed fact that the
growing Of young horses and mules as
a side line to general farming is prof
table business. Colts have come to
be as good as cash at any time after
weaving. Every farmer ought to KEEP
at least a team of mares and breed
them every year. With careful han
ding they will make a full team and
grow two good colts with very little
extra care and cost. Young horses
are not all profit. They cannot be
grown for nothing; yet every pound
Of young horse or mule flesh repre-
sents probably more clear gain fol
the amount Of food consumed than thai
Of any other animal grown on the
farm.

A Battle Of Names,

According to a Washington dispatch
in the Tribune there is a movement
on foot in Washington to restore the
use Of the term Executive Mansion
instead Of White House. which has
been the custom during the Roosevelt
administration; and many members
of congress are said to prefer the
longer and more pretentious name,
says the New York Sun. White
House" II is, in the mind and mouth
of every American; so known across
the water, too. The term, as re-
cent researches by correspondents Of
the Sun have shown, is of respect
able antiquity. II seems to have been
traced as far back as Madison's sec
ond administration. 1t will soon be
entitled to its centenary. II is IA
miliar figure, Of homely and cordial
look. II is not TO be put out by a
long trained intruding trollop like Eek
ecutive Mansion" That may accom-
modate itself well to the legal, formal
and clerkly style. but the popular and
the fittest name is and will be White
House" President Taft is no friend
of pomp and swollen words. We have
no doubt that he prefers to live in a
house" AS for those members of
congress who from fondness for elo-
quence or want of taste love high
sounding names, Mr.. Taft may tell
them little Jest by which DR..
William Everett used to teach
simplicity: AT Yale the presidents
lady retires;' at Harvard the presi

The discovery of the bureau OF AMI.
NAL industry of the department of az
riculture of a serum that will protect
hogs from cholera has been taken ad'
