An understanding of the desirable
and undesirable conditions found In
horses, together with a knowledge OF
their relative values will enable the
purchaser to select better animal
with a considerable saving of time, In
convenience and expense. A thorough
examination for the various forms of
blemish, vice, faulty conformation and

essential If serviceableness is to be Sc

Gus steps most conveniently present

ferent regions of the horse to which
attention will be invited.

horse. 1t is not possible to examine all
the parts, but those exposed to view
will give q good idea of the others
since in animals there is analogy be
tween the various parts. The exter

are dense, tiintlike bone, covered with
fine, snugly fitting skin, and short sOf

also finds expression in thoroughly de

Color.-Horses with any Of the dark
solid colors, such as bay. brown. chest.
nut and black. are serviceable and sell
readily Dark grays are in demand for
draft, show and hunting purposes but
for other uses they are generally slow
sellers, because they turn white with
age Pink-skinned whites, duns, mouse
colors and spotted colors sell at dis
count except for uses where unusual

have the reputation of standing tht

DETERMINE IF SOIL IS ACID
Most Common Test Is by Means Of
Blue Litmus Paper-How Opera
tion May Be Performed.

The most common test for determin-
ing If soil is acid or sour is by means
of blue litmus paper. which can be OBJ
tanned at very small cost from nearly
every druggist. A small quantity of
soil from the field is eompacted into
ball, the ball broken into halves. a
strip of litmus paper laid across one
part and the parts pressed firmly to-
gether again. After an hour or SO the
ball of soil should be again broken
apart and the paper removed. If the
paper shows decided pink color the
sample of soil is acid.
If deep-rooted crop such as alfalfa
is to be grown it win be well to test
samples taken from both the surface
soil and the subsoil.

Kidney & Co.
(BY DIR. ]. H. WATSON

The kidneys and the skin work in
harmony. They're companions, the
skin being the second partner. II we
are anxious to keep well and preserve
the vitality of the kidneys and, also,
free the blood from noxious elements,
we must pay special attention to
good action Of the skin and to see that
the kidneys are flushed so as to elimi-
nate the poisons from the blood.
Sweating, by hard work or in a bath,
at least once week, helps to keep the
skin and kidneys in good CONDITION.
Flush the kidneys by drinking plenty
of pure water with meals and between
meals. Occasionally obtain at the urus
store Anuric, double strength, whlcn
win helm flush the kidneys and the IN
testines. You will find that Anurlc IS
many times more active than itnl ma
and that 1t dissolves uric acid as not
water does sugar.

Considerable inquiry has been

In fact they will have little use
for them. Suit cases can be stored
beneath the beds and plenty of
underclothes and socks should be
kept in them.
