here, in the greatest and most lavish
ly, bestowed by nature for the pur-
pose?
The American is the best business
man in the world, as good a horse
man as can be produced anywhere.
and is always looking for the straight
est way of getting to certain point
and has certainly succeeded in sur
prising the world in this direction. He
has produced the most extraordinary
light harness horse that has ever been
heard of, when speed alone is consid
cred, and also some of the fastest
thoroughbreds, and it seems that the
time has not arrived when more care
should be shown in the selection of
horses for breeding purposes, so as to
be able to produce sounder, bigger,
and better individuals.

A Good Horse of His Breed-A Hackney.

By CAPT A. II. wADDELL.)
If we are good judges of human ma
ture, or able to judge others by their
biographers, we should feel very much
inclined to lay SO bill to 10c piece
that the willy Richard" who once
made himself hoarse shouting "A
Horse, a Horse, my Kingdom for a
Horse" wanted good one.
Richard had just killed five Rich
monds, or thought he had, and was
looking for another when his horse
was killed under him, and when he
uttered his memorable words. Yes,
he wanted horse and he wanted one
badly enough, but, he wanted a good
one.
A good horse was what he wanted,
good horses are what we all want, and
it is only the large breeder who can
really tell us, how many bad horses
he breeds, for one good one that he
sells. This is in large measure due
to haphazard methods in breeding;
breeders are not careful enough in
the selection of their parent stock, nor
the peculiarities and characteristics of
the families from which the parent
stock comes.
In the trotting horse everything has
been neglected for speed, and in the
thoroughbred in this country, nothing
but this element has been considered;
the result is too we'll known to be re-
capitulated. Notwithstanding this no.
body seems to try to remedy the de-
fectS that this near sightedness has
produced. There is not one trotting
horse in a thousand whose anatomical
formation, physical and constitutional
soundness, will permit him to become
q 2:10 trotter, nor is there one race
horse in the same number that can
gallop a mile in first class company
with any chance of winning, for the
same reason.
Breeders no not give sufficient care
to individuality, size, bone, substance,
and soundness; they never think Of
temper or temperament and only con-
slider speed, which, although inherited
on both sides is useless in weakling.
Stamps and types of horses and
ponies have been bred which are well
eXemplitied in the Shire, Clydesdale.

ney. Why cannot this obtain in some
meas ure at least in the trotter and
thor ughbred in America? 1t does in
other countries and why should it not

SUMMER WORK
FOR CHICKENS
Where There Is Not Perfectly Com.
Portable Poultry House on
Farm One Should be Pro-
vided This Summer.
(By MILLER PUNIS.)

If there is not a perfectly comfort
able poultry house on the farm, one
should be planned and provided this
summer, at least before cold weather
sets in, for it is poor planning to put
off providing a warm poultry house
until the time arrives for its use. A
comfortable poultry house need not be
a costly one nor a particularly warm
one. Every poultry house should have
two rooms with a tight partition be-
tween them If it is build in this way,
the tiook may be crowded into one
room when very cold weather comes,
and the heat of their bodies will keep
the room warm. A hen does not feel
the cold as quickly as man does, for
her blood is five per cent. warmer nat
urally, and if she can sleep where
there is no draft blowing on her she
will be very comfortable in a room in
which the temperature runs as low as
10 to II degrees below the freezing
point.

QUEER DISEASE IS
IN UNITED STATES
Many Here Afflicted With Odd
Ailment, Says Prof.
Munyon.
GREWSOME CREATURES
VERY COMMON,
FINDS EXPERT.

Many. people in the United States are
afflicted with a queer disease, according
to a stateIlent yesterday by. Professor
ing remarkable and rather grewsome
statement:
Many persons who come and write to
SITS. Philadelphia. Pa. think they are
suffering from a, simple stomach trouble,
when in reality they are. the victims of
tape worm. These tape worms huge
internal parasites, which locate in the
upper bowel and consume large per-
centage of the nutriment in undigested
food. They sometimes grow to a length
of forty to sixty feet One may have a
TAP tape o worm - for or years and a., never know
Persons who are suffering from one
of these creatures become nervous, weak
and irritable, and tire at the least ex-
bition and vitality and strength, but they
are rarely fatal.
The victim of this disease is apt 20
believe that he is suffering from chronic
stomach trouble, and doctors for years
without relief. This is not the fault of
the physicians he consults, for there is
no absolute diagnosis that will tell posi-
lively that one is not a victim of tape
worm.
The most common symptom of this
trouble is an abnormal appetite. At
times the person Is ravenously hungry
and cannot get enough to eat At other
times the very sight of food Is loathsome:
lRere is a SnaWlnS, rant sensation at
the pit of the stomach, and the victim
has headaches, fits Of dizziness and nau-
sea He cannot sleep at night and often
thinks he is suffering from nervous pros
tration.
II have a treatment which has had
wonderful success in eliminating these
great creatures from the system. In the
course of its regular action in aiding
digestion, and Kidding the blood. kidneys
and liver of impurities 1t has proven fatal
to these great worms. If one has a tape
worm this treatment will in nine cases
out of ten. stupefy and pass 1t away. but
If not, the treatment will rebuild the
rundown person, who is probably suffer-
ing from stomach trouble and a general
anaemic condition. My doctors report
marvellous success here with this treat
ment. Fully a dozen persons have passed
these worms, but they are naturally reti-
cent about discussing them. and of course
we cannot violate their confidence by CIV
ing their names to the public"
