early breeding Is beneficial, but as Il
business proposition 1t has been dem
onstrated that whatever slight iniuri-
GUS effect the lilly may suffer is not
sufficient TO offset the advantage of
having her make some returns as n
three year-old to the man who has his
money invested and is paying for her
keep. 1t is more satisfactory to have
n two-ycar-old dlly pay her way by
raising n foal than by going to work
In the field, as she is very much more
apt to suffer permanent injury from
this than from being bred. Even though
great many two-year-o are capable
OF doing n considerable amount of Sc
lected work they cannot take the full
part OF the horses work without dam
ger of its becoming detrimental to their
ultimate worth.
The best means OF solving this prob
lem Is to accept the findings of the
other great horse producing countries
where 1t has been thoroughly worked
out. In Scotland, for instance, the
practice Is to breed the Clyde fillir
the spring they are two years old. h,
allow them no work whatever that
season. Then, after weaving their
foals, they are taken up rs three year
olds and put to work. but are not bred
again until they are four, This seems
to be II very practical system and
worthy OF our adoption.

Boys Find Old Treasure.

The largest find Of treasure trove
that has ever been discovered in Den
mark has just come to light at Ter
slew. Two boys were digging In the
garden OF n resident named Otto Han
sen when they struck pile OF silver,
three feet below the surface. Investi-
cation disclosed the presence OF n
heap of coins. besides ncckets, chains
and bracelets. some inlaid with gold
and mostly dating from the end Of the
tenth century. Most OF the coins nrc
Arabic. but some nrc Anglo Sa Xon,
and one bears the name OF Athcl
Rtane. the early Saxon king of Eng,
land. Several Of the ornaments are
finely ornamented. but the gem OF
them nli is n twisted neck chain. from
which are suspended two toilet requi.
sites-one q small. dagger-like article
and the other an ear spoon. Altogether
there are nearly 600 separate pieces.
weighing about sixteen pounds.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
THE HORSEMAN.

, The collar is the harness. See
to it that the collar fits. Collar
boils are caused by Ill fitting
collars.
The leveIness with which a
horse walks Is one Of the best
evidences that his legs work in
harmony.
The good fat knee, the muscu-
lar arms, the full muscular
shoulders. the good hook are all
important points in the horse.
Quality in form, disposition
and general conformation must
be coupled with the size and
style to get the best in each class
OF horses.
A check rein is unnecessary
cruelty. For the horse that oc-
casions trouble by reaching
down after grass or corn try
muZzle, but leave his head free.
The quantity Of food given the
horse should be regulated by the
size and breed Of the animal and
by the amount Of work he is re-
CURED to do.
A man with an ungoyernable
temper should not be trusted
with Il horse any more than Il
drunken chauffeur should be al
, lowed to drive an automobile.

You view the busy, crowded town,
The restless sea. the lonely down,

When orchards shine with apples bright
And reapers sing In waning light
And you shine for their dance all night.

BREEDING FlLLIES.
Well Finished Drafters May Be Bred
at Two Years of AGE.

We'll Finished Drafters May Be Bred
at Two Years of Age.
The ACCESSIBILITY Of breeding FLIES at
two years of age is an economic ques-
ton which Is frequently considered
and concerning which there is q great
deal of difference of opinion. says the
Pennsylvania Bulletin. 1t may be
said, in the first place, that all depends
on the FLY. Horses OF draft breeding
mature much earlier than the hot
booded sort, 80 that draft filly ut
two years OF age Is often as forward
as one Of trotting breeding almost or
fully year older. Again there is Il
great difference in individuals and the
way they are grown out. Usually a
smoothly turned. neat, well finished
youngster makes its growth much
sooner than an apparently rougher but
growthy individual. although. as a
rule, the latter attainS eventually to a
much greater scale. Furthermore. the
same individual may be grown out in
much less time in the hands of the
feeder who keeps continually doing"
than when required to make all her
growth on pasture with material set
back due to improper feeding each
winter season.
1t does not seem feasible to include
In this discussion any but the well ma
tured draft Ally, she being the only
one which should under any circum-
stances be bred as n two-year-old. 1t
Is not reasonable to suppose that from
the point of view Of the tilly herself
