The standard "carat" has been es-
tablished in France by an act of Par
lament, which DEGREES that it shall be
known as the centric carat" and the
term shall be employed to designate
weight of 30S6 grains or 200 milli-
grams. The use Of the word to des-
ignate any other weight is prohibited.
1t is entirely likely that the action
of the French Government will be
followed by several others, and the

The peculiar odor of clay is un-
questionably due to organic ingredi-
ents. Although these cannot be iso-
lated or detected by chemical an
alysis, they can be classified accord
ing to their physiological effects,
which vary widely. Rohland has sue
ceeded in transferring the odors of
clay to saccharate of iron and has thus
recognized ten distinct varieties.
Louis has made similar observations,
employing ammonia as vehicle for
the odors.

LISTING CORN.

In your issue of August Z, M. w.
F., of Madison County, speaks of see
ing plow that breaks and plants at
one operation, and thinks it Is some
thing new. We have had plows here
in this neighborhood on the same
plan for fifteen years. The first ones
were walking plows; now some have
riding plows, made by Illinois plow
companies. The way they operate is
like this: They use four horses and
straddle an old row of corn, two
horses on each side of the row to be
plowed and planted. The plow bursts
the old row, throwing dirt both ways.
It has both a right and left mold
board and shears, and bursts all old
rows of corn and plants. 1t is what
we call listing corn, and hundreds Of
acres are planted that way here.-G..

RAISING HORSES FOR PROFIT.

RAISING HORSES FOR PROFIT.
AS a producer of either grade of
pure-bred horses for sale, the farmer
has rich possibilities. There is wide
and strong market for all the product.
The farmer who breeds and grows
horses for market as strong side
line to general farming can make
good money at it through intelligent
direction and proper equipment.
Raising colts on the farm does not
require much extra capital or labor.
A mare will raise colt nearly every
year and at the same time make half
a team, except for two or three weeks
after the colt is born. Many small
farmers make much extra money by
keeping only mares for farm work
and breeding them regularly. Every
year they have from one to three o.
four young horses to sell at good
figures which have cost them only
small amount. The more pains taken
in securing good stock and feeding
and training the colts the more money
there is in the business.-Farmers
