Horses Higher TaAn Ever.

In spite of the automobile
craze that is raging i'll every
section of the country good
horses are commanding bet
ter prices than ever did be
fore, and more attention is
being paid to raising them
and the improvements OF the
breeds. This would not be
true if the day of the horse,
for use and pleasure were
almost gone, hence the horse
will continue to help and de-
light us even if the automo-
biles in the great cities do
most of the hauling of peo-
pie and freight.
There was a speed sale
held in Chicago recently, at
which All horses were sold,
and the prices paid seemed to
old-time horsemen something
outrageous, as the lot brought
nearly $40, 600. Saddle
horses from Kentucky that
could not be called good
looking were sold for $500
and S40O each. There was
also an auction sale of 100
Shetland ponies contributed
by the Shetland Pony Asso-
citation and although the
animals were not the pick of
the farms the average price
was over 800.
But it appears that draft
horses are selling at still
higher prices, as a pair of
Percherons brought $1,000,
and these prices are not con.
fined to any particular breed
but hold good all over the
country. Bit the Spur is
the authority for the state.
ment that any useful kind of
horse brings much more
money to-day than he would
have brought years ago, and
a prospective buyer can not
look at any of the better
breeds without being stag
gered by the prices asked
for hem.-States.

Why Two Ears Are Necessary,

Sound travels by waves radiatinS
from a central point of disturbance,
Just as waves radiate when a stone
is dropped into still water. So far
as the hearing of each individual is
concerned these waves move in Il
direct line from the cause of the
sound to his ear, the impact being
the greatest in the ear nearest to
the source. This being the case, a
person who has totally lost the sense
of hearing in one ear, although he
may imagine that the defect is Of
little consequence, cannot locate the
direction Of a sound to save his life,
even when the center of disturbance
is quite near him.

Mozart and Beethoven.

The stories of how men of gen.
ius have had future fame predicted
for them in their early youth must
generally be taken with a consider
able grain of salt. AS authentic as
most is the account of the first
meeting of Mozart with the young
Beethoven, which took place on the
latter's first VISIT to Vienna in the
year 1887. Mozart, then at the
height of his fame, asked him to
play, but. thinking his performance
a prepared piece, paid little atten-
tion 70 it. Beethoven, seeing this,
entreated Mozart to give him a sub
ject, which he did, and tie boy, get
ting excited with the occasion, play
ed so finely that the composer Of
Don Giovanni" stepping softly
into the next room, said to hS
friends there: "Pay attention to
him. He will make noise in the
world some day or another. -

HIS FIRST GRIZZLY.
A Curious Hunting Experience In
British Columbia.

British Columbia.
While hunting wild goats in
northern British Columbia, W. Ii.
Wright had a peculiar experience
which shows that in hunting, as in
other matters, it is more often than
not the unexpected that happens.
In his book "The Grizzly Bear" he
describes the incident:
Mr.. Pope joined me the last of
August, and we worked our way
back to where l had seen the goats,
this being the game we had come to
hunt.
When near the point where we
intended to leave our horses | look
ed up to our right and on top Of the
ridge above the timber line saw Il
large grizzly running for all he was
worth.
| called Pope's attention to him,
and as he was entirely out of range,
being some 500 yards away, and as
we supposed from his rapid flight
that he had seen us we sat quietly
on the horses and looked at him.
The horses, too, saw the bear, and
they also watched him.
For 200 yards or so he continued
his fight, and then, to our amaze
ment, he turned down the ridge and
came straight toward us on the
Jump. This was another story. We
both dismounted. | held the horses
by their heads so they could not
make any disturbance, and Pope
stepped dew feet ahead and drop
ped on one knee, ready for shot in
case the bear came near enough.
The bear came on downhill at
the same mad gait until he had COW
cred half the distance and was not
over 400 yards above US, when he
dashed into a little thicket of fir
bushes and disappeared.
We discussed our chs%ces of
crawling up to him. We saw the
bushes sway; out jumped the griz-
Fly, and down he came straight to-
ward us. 1t seemed as if he must
surely have seen us, and he actually
came up within $50 yards of us,
when he turned to the left, stopped
and commenced digging out a
ground squirrel.
This was our chance. The bear
was standing broadside on, and
Pope fired. He hit him just back of
the shoulder and pierced the heart.
1t was a good shot.
The bear turned a somersault,
cart wheeled down toward US and
never stopped until he landed in the
little trail that we were following.
This was Pope's first grizzly, and
from the stories he had been told Of
how wild these bears were and how
hard to kill he had felt that it was
doubtful if he ever got one. Yet we
had been standing, with the two
horses, all the time in plain view
Not a bush screened US, and the
horses kept their ears pointed for
ward and watched the bear from
the time he left the ridge until
Pope shot him,

SAUCES AS THEY SHOULD Be
Most Of These Ideas Have Been
Handed Down to Us from the
French OriQinators. 90"

Sauce Tartare.-This delicious r SIS,
which Is served with tomato sa.ad,
boiled fish, or fried soft shell crabs,
may be made in several ways, though
every way has mayonnaise sauce for
foundation
Make the mayonnaise in the usual
manner, and add to the yolks of the
eggs before they are beaten a tea.
spoonful of powdered mustard. Then
use Italian oil and vinegar instead OF
lemon. After the mayonnaise has
been we'll chilled stir into it olives,
capers and gherkin pickles (not
sweet, chopped finely.
Salmis Sauce.-This is fine for warm
Ing up cold game or for serving with
steWed rabbit or roast guinea fowl.
Melt an egg-size lump of good but
ter In a deep saucepan, and stir in a
tablespoonful of -four till not lump
remains. Add, then, cup of bouillon
and one Of claret, salt, red and white
pepper, two shallots or one onion, a
few sprigs of parsley, three bay leaves
and pinch of thyme. Let all boil
gently for half an hour, and strain out
the lumpy seasonings before serving.
Sauce Tomate.-Squeeze six or more
large tomatoes through strainer.
Then free the pulp of as many seeds
as 1t Is possible to do, and put the
pulp and the Juice in saucepan with
half Glove of garlic, or one white
onion finely sliced, red pepper and
salt. Let this simmer slowly on q
moderate fire for an hour and then
pass all the tomatoes again through q
fine strainer. Then put two table.
| spoonfuls of butter in saucepan and
stir in until smooth a tablespoonful
of flour. After this let the sauce cook
gently for ten or fifteen minutes more
Such sauce is served oftenest with
boiled macaroni or spaghetti

Curry Of Mutton.

Two cupfuls Of chopped cooked NUT
ton, teaspoonful Of curry powder, two
cupfuls Of stock, two tablespoonfuls

HORTICULTURAL NOTES.

Plum trees require comparatively
little pruning. =
It should be remembered that the
cnerry tree requires very little prun-
ing.
Currants, gooseberries, raspberries
ana olackberries should. be heavily
mulched.
The production Of apples is 42.5 per
cent. OF a full crop, compared with
43.4 per cent. in 1903
ALLOW ample space between the
rows OF raspberries and blackberries
to permit of cultivation.
"A young peach tree needs vigorous
pruning, but bearing tree in good
soil needs little except to remove dead
and surplus branches.
The object of pruning is to shorten
the new growth, leaving approximate
ly the amount Of fruiting wood which
the vine can safely carry.
The old orchard, that is trees IL to
15 years old and older and already in
bearing, will be benefited by heavy
applications of stable litter or other
fertilizer.
Tea roses and half hardy roses may
be protected by first making mound
OF earth, sod or other material over
which to bend the rose bush. Over
this florists usually cover with soil.
A tree with an open head can be
sprayed more thoroughly than when
the tree is allowed to grow at will. 1t
is usual to cut out the suckers or wa
ter sprouts, the dead wood and the
broken branches.
Rabbits usually do little harm to an
orchard after it has attained the age
of ten years, but orchards recently
planted and orchards up to the age
OF perhaps eight years should receive
protection.

BEST WAY TO FEED CORN.

Sllce corn IS the c0le1 0rtlcle or diet
In those states where hog raising is
carried on extensively the question of
the feeding of it in the most econom-
ical form is live one for every feeder
Realizing this fact and with view to
securing data that would be of practi-
cal value for the feeder, the directors
of the Iowa experiment station at
Ames have been conducting exhaustive
feeding experiments for the past three
years with a view to finding out in
what form corn should be fed to give
the largest as we'll as the most eco
nomical gains. A bulletin recently
published by the station gives the re-
suits of these feeding Investigations
A gist of the findings should be Of
practical aid to every hog raiser who
uses corn as a part Of the feeding ra-
ton. Six forms of corn We're used-dry
ear corn, soaked shell corn, dry corn
meal, soaked cornmeal, dry corn and
cob meal and soaked corn and cob
meal. 1t was found that shelling cost
l cent per bushel, shelling and grind
Ing cents and grinding corn and cob
meal 6 cents
In the tests made in 1907 100 pounds
of dry ear corn made as much pork as
112 pounds of shelled corn soaked
twenty-four hours or 122 pounds Of
cornmeal soaked twelve hours. In the
1908 tests shelled corn soaked twelve
hours gave slightly the fastest gains.
1t was found that, whether dry or
soaked. bushel Of corn ground with
out the cob made more pork than a
buShel of corn ground with the cob,
while a bushel of ear corn made as
much gain as one and one-third bush.
els ground into corn and cob meal at a
cost of + cents per bushel. Other in
teresting features of the experiments
might be given, but the practical les
son of the tests. according to the ex-
perimenters, is summarized in the
statement that up to 200 pounds in
weight the fastest as well as the most
economical gains may be secured by
feeding dry ear corn, while for hogs
above this weight the best results are
had with shelled corn soaked twelve
hours. These results will be gratifying
to the average feeder, for the method
Of feeding which gives best results is
that in which there is minimum out
lay of time and expense in the prepar-
ing and feeding Of the RI ion.

Protect Rose Rushea.

A good way to protect a bed of ten,
der rose bushes is to bend them care
fully down to the ground, hold them
In position with stakes and then cover
with leaves, straw or earth. On my
own rose bed follow this plan, using
. heavy layer of leaves held in place
by wide strip of wire chicken netting
laid fat on the bed and securely
sxaKed at the edges.

United States Apple Crop.

United States Apple Crop.
In 1895 the total product of the ap-
pie crop of the country was 69,07O,O0O
barrels, or 177,675,000 bushels. Since
then hundreds of thousands of acres
have been added, and yet the govern
ment reports show that the aggregate
crop in all the states in the union was
not more than 25,000,000 barrels, or
g., 100000 bushels, in 1908. Many of
the middle western and eastern states
reported small yields this season, due
to failures in numerous instances, but
generally because of pests. Orchards
have been neglected and In scores of
places the trees have been permitted
to die because of the lack Of even ordi.
