THE BEST TIME TO WATER THE
HORSE.
He Should Always be Watered Be-
fore Feeding, But Should Not
be Allowed to Drink Much
While Hot.

A horse should be watered
before feeding, and never given
a large quantity of water after a
meal, for the simple reason that
the water will wash the food out
of the stomach before stomach
digestion has taken place and
the food will not be we'll pre-
pared for absorption; and be-
sides it is sometimes The cause
of collie.
There is popular idea that a
warm horse should not be al
lowed to drink and, unlike a
great many other popular ideas,
there is little truth in it. II
you water a wa LII horse in the
ordinary way. letting him drink
all that he will. you are likely
to have toundered horse on
your hands. This is especially
so If, at this time, the horse is
fatigued. Nevertheless, it is al
ways safe 10 allow him from six
10 ten swallows, no matter how
warm he is. If this be given on
going into the stable and he be
allowed to stand and eat hay for
an hour and is then offered
water, he will not drink nearly
so much as he would had none
been given before.
The danger is not in the first
swallow, as We often hear il as
! cried. but in the excessive
quantities he will drink if not
restrained. The most danger
Gus time to give horse a full
draft is when he has cooled
down from tatiguing work and
has partaken OF a meal IF. w.

Cotton Soaring in Charlotte.

Charlotte Observer, July i4:-
Spot cotton brought 80 cents
on the local market yesterday ,
this being the highest price that
has been paid in Charlotte in
years. The high price of the
staple is due to the discouraging
reports that came from Texas
regarding the new crop. AL
though the price yesterday was
very high there was but little
sold, showing that the farmers
either have little on hand or are
waiting tor better prices.

SOW CRIMSON CLOVER in CORN
AND COTTON.
This Legume will Quickly Build
up the Soil in Humus and
Thus Increase Your
Crops.

progressive Farmer.
l have found it very profit
able TO grow crimson clovor on
land that is to 90 in corn next
year. Especially is this trun,
if stalk land is to be used for
the corn crop. 1t is necessary for
every farmer to adopt some sys-
tema'ic rotation of crops, and
if in this rotation corn is to fol.
low cotton, it is good plan to
SOW crimson clover in the cot.
ton at last working, and by the
the last of May the clover will
be ready to turn under, and the
land be narrowed down for corn.
l do not think it advisable to
have clover growing on all the
corn land, because it would make
too much heavy breaking at a
very busy season; but to have a
part OF the crop on clover sod,
aud planted late, is a good plan,
as the farmer is not burdened
with large planting at one time
and, as the season often varies,
it is better to have some of the
corn late and some early.
Probably the best place to use
the barn-yard manure is on the
clover sod, applying in Febru
ary aud March. This helps ma
terially in the growth of the
corn crop. Some of the finest
crops of corn grown in this coun-
.ty last yeat were grown on
crimson clover sod, some being
mown off or let die down, as
green manure. If the growth is
very heavy, it should be mown
off or let die down as there is
danger of souring the land.
One of the greatest needs of
our soil is the addition of humus,
and in my opinion there is no
quicker way to do this than to
grow cover crops and to turn
them under. So long as the
land is stripped bare, the soil
will be deficient In humus. Rye
is valuable in this way, but it is
not SO good as clover on stalk
land, because laying-by time is
too early to SOW rye, and also
because it is not legume.
Many farmers hesitate to sow
clover On account OF the cost Of
the seed, and the same may
be said of peas, but it. is
false economy TO fail 10 SOW
peas and clover OIL account of
the price seed, especially as
prices are this pear. Peas are
selling for 81 SO and crimson
clover seed at about $3.50 to
81 per bushel. At that price
crimson clover may be seeded
at not 10 exceed 81 per. acre,
and that is cheap enough. At
least, it will pay we'll to use it at
that price.
Vetch is another fine winter
cover crop, and when sown with
fall oats, makes a most excellent
hay crop. There is no necessity
for any farmer to buy hay when
he can raise it Ia abundance as
he can in the way Of oats and
vetch. Vetch is also a fine
green manure, and will re-seed
itself if let mature.
Some may be disappointed
with these crops the first year, but
as the soil needs incubation,
later. on fairly good land, they
will be satisfactory.

Some Favorite Preserves.

made preserves that every one
should have plenty of are. black
berry jam and apple marmalade.
Marmalade is so much less expen.
sive than apple jelly and so much
nicer that 1 wonder anybody will
ever bother with making jelly.
Pare the apples, cut them into
thick slices ard cook until done.
Do not use too much water to
boil them in as they will require
longer cooking the second time.
Ruu all the pulp through q sieve,
return it to the fire, add three
fourths OF pound o! sugar to
each pound OF fruit, aud cook for
hal'-hour or until it falls from
the spoon in a jelly-like drop.
1t may be favored with cinnamon,
nutmeg and lemon juice if liked.
Buy blackberries by the bushel
for jam, and put it up by The
stone jar full. 1t is so convenient
in winter for the children's lunch
es. The berries should be pict-
ed and washed and put on the
stove with just enough waller in
the bottom of the kettle to pre-.
ven them from burning. AS
soon as they begin 10 boil add
the sugar, allowing pound for
each pound of berries, and co k
until thick. This requires quite
long time as the berries are so
juicy.
A good many people hesitate
to attempt making fig preserves
because of the troublesome meth
cd of the cook book. | have
made most delicious fig preserves
without all the foimalIty usually
considered essential. Take figs
that are not too ripe. Pare them
with a knife, taking care not to
cut through the inside skin to the
seeded part, and at the same time
taking off as much of this inside
white skin as possible without
cutting through it. Leave the
stems on. Make a syrup Of
ihree-iourths of pound of sugar
for each pound OF fruit, and while
the syrup is boiling drop in the
fruit. Put the kettle where II
will boil steadily and let it boil
until the fl look clear. Take
them out with care, put into jars
and pour the syrup over them
They are very good made into a
jam by allowing them to boil
until they fall 10 pieces and the
syrup becomes thick, but they
are not nearly so pretty nor del
icate as the preserves.
Grape juice is so expensive to
buy that it must be profitable to
sell. 1t is not so much trouble
to make, and grape vines, espec-
tally scuppernong grapes, once
started grow on for years with
out much attention. Grape juice
retails at forty cents q quart.
Even if q person does not care to
sell grape juice it is very nice to
have at home as cooling drink
in summer aud q wholesome one
in winter.

gallon Of boiled cider and halt a
bushel OF tart apples. Pare and
core the apples and cut them in.
to small pieces. Cook them in

BILL IS DENOUNCED
Would Drive Out Foreign Capital"
Says Realty Exchange.
MORTGAGE TAX PLAN CONDEMNED
Special Committee VIII Draw Meas
ure to Accomplish Results with
Doing Mischief Exchange
Fears I'm This One.

After some wa m debates the Omaha Real
Estate exchange condemned the Taylor
bill" before the Nebraska legislature, which
makes provisions in regard to the taxation
Of mortgages. the real estate dealers de-
claring it will drive almost every cent OF
so-called foreign money out of the state of
Nebraska.
The bill was supported by some members
Of the exchange. but the final vote was in
favor of those who oppose the bill and are
preparing to fight it when it reaches the
senate.
The most Objectionable feature OF the
bill, according to ]. H. Dumont and others
is this provisions:
1.-THE taxes so levied shall be a lien on the
real estate and also on the security and
may be paid by the owner of the real
estate or the owner of the security; IL
paid by the owner of the security the tax
paid upon the real estate affected thereby
shall become a part of the debt so secured;
II the owner of the real estate shall pay
the taxes so levied on such security. it
shall constitute a payment thereon and as
to the amount of such payment, a full
discharge thereof. If such security or
indebtness shall be paid by such debtor or
debtors, after the assessment of such
security and before the tax is levied on the
same, the amount of such levy may like
wise be retained by such debtor or Debtors
A special committee of the exchange will
draw up a bill with the assistance of an
attorney, which the dealers believe will
be satisfactory and at the same time not
endanger the losing Of large amounts of
money which come to Nebraska from the
east. but which the dealers declare will
return IL such a bill as that of Mr.. Taylor's,
becomes a law,
