CIIonlno Horses,

Clipping is not commonly practiced
and may not be generally advisable.
However. there are cases where 1t Is
UNSUITABLE. Many horses grow a long.
heavy coat daring the winter. When
they are. put to work the coat holds
heat. retains the sweat and after the
horse has stopped work may cause
chills. Sometimes long. heavy hair
will not dry out entirely all night.
Clipping would prevent all the evils
attendant upon long hair. However. 1t
has dangers of its own. A horse sud
denly relieved Of his long coat is very
sensitive to exposure and chilly
breezcs. II he is clipped the driver
will have to be extremely careful to
blanket well whenever the team Is
stopped and to work the horse in
blanket II the weather turns cold With
good. careful driver clipping may be
safely done. and more satisfactory
service will result.

Ramady For Ailina Cu,,-.

To stir up the nerves. to stimulate
the muscles OF the walls Of the stom-
ach and intestines, is the first thing to
do when a COW gets down or begins to
show signs OF distress. says the Farm
Journal. One or both OF these forces
must be applied internally Mt once. We
have found In all cases. no matter
what the trouble has been. that when
we have given quinine and saltpetcr.
two teaspOonfuls Of each at q dose.
the COW was stimulated enough to
respond to the epson salts. or what
ever other medicine was given. In
about an hour or two afterward.
In many cases this was all that was
given, and the animal would get up on
her feet and seem like a live one
again. The quinine stimulates the
nerves and speeds the heart action.
and the other remedy stirs up the mu-
cous secretions and impels action OF
the muscles, with resultant effects In
freeing all organs, especially the kid
neys. If there Is Inflammation inter-
nally there should be other things given
injections of warm water with oil
and turpentine and a dose Of raw lin
seed oil or salts.

National Capital Brevjtjes.

The Senate rejected Secretary
Hitchcock's scheme to increase post.
age on magazines.
With his colors nailed to the mast
and showing to the very last minute

been famed, "Uncle Joe" Cannon

Congress passed a resolution recog-
MIXING Captain Peary's discovery OF
the North Pole and awarding him re-
tirement with the rank of rear-admiral
and the thanks Of Congress.
Speaker Cannon appointed Repre-
sentatives Hawley of Oregon and Lee
of Georgia members of the commits
sion to supervise the purchase OF
lands to protect the watersheds OF
navigable rivers.
The general deficiency bill, as sign.
ed, provides that the secretary of the
treasury is authorized to adjust and
report to Congress all unpaid claims
of volunteers in the Oregon ayuse
Indian wars. IL also provides for an
appropriation of $4,000 for investiga-
ton of conditions in Alaska by COM
mittee Of five Senators and FIVE Rep
resentatives. to be selected by the
Vice-President and Speaker.

Standifer Co., Portland contractors,
has Deen awarded the contract to
build the North Coast line between

The work will amount to $1,0O0,00O,

Proper Horse Equipment.

Good. strong harnesses and durable
farm implements increase the efticien.
cy Of the work horses. The horse that
has a well fitted and properly adjust.
ed harness can do more and better
work than one that Is compelled to
wear a poorly fitted. dilapidated har-
ness to annoy and irritate him every
step he takes while at work. Strong
and durable implements reduce break
age to a minimum and avoid delays
required to make repairs during the
busy season. Fly nets are necessary
during the summer II the horses are to
hold their flesh and the drivers their
temper. They are not an expensive
luxury and will last long time IL well

Behind the uncurried horse rides a

About six months Of age is the prop
er time to wean strong foal.
Horse manure is much better to be
mixed with other manure and worked
over by swine.
Provide clean. dry bed and never
allow a horse to lie on bare boards or
stand in wet manure.
When the fOal is taken away from
the mare he should have a box stall
that is well lighted and ventilated.

DID NOT TALK TO WIFE.
Husbands Only Communication in
Form of Official Notes.
Cablegram to The Star

Special Cablegram to The Star.
PARIS. July pa remarkable case of
husband who for several years COM
municated with his wife only by notes
left on the table in their bedroom came
before the courts, when the wife petit
toned for a divorce.
The husband is clerk employed by a
drapery firm, but in his domestic life he
was stated to be ultra -au; ocratic. He
drew up an ordinance couched in legal
phraseology, providing that husband and
wife should live on their own means, each
contributing a fair share to the common
costs of Housekeeping. the husband nav
ing the right to decide what these should
be- The husband. by clause s of l,ie
ordinance, further provided that he would
as rule dine at restaurants. but should
he decide otherwise he would buy and
cook his own food.
For years the couple lived in this atmos-
phere of silence, the wife receiv ing
every day notes which varied from the
mildest notifications to the severest ad-
monitions, but all alike marked by a stern
and lofty tone. more fitted for a oic.
tator than a husband.
Early this year came the final blow,
when the husband wrote his last note
in the form of an official decree to the
effect that he would no longer live witt
his wife. The wife has now been granted
a divorce.
