Sound, High Grade Mare of Good Con-
formation Most Profitable.
Prepared by United States department of
agriculture
The uniformity in the mares kept on
a particular farm generally is not Civ
en- much consideration. There is salts
faction and convenience in having
mares similar enough in type and ac-
ton so that one can readily fill the
place of another at any kind of farm
work. Such mares are especially de-
sirable when it is necessary to work
three or four abreast. In case four are
needed to wagon it is e good ad-
vertisement to the owners Judgment
and ability as a horseman to have them
all uniform, in good condition and
hooked up to a nicely. II the mares
resemble each other and are bred to
the same stallion it will often be DOS
sible to sell the young horses as pairs,
In which form they nearly always sell
at premium. The market for horses
bred In this manner will not be over
crowded very soon, as readily will be
attested by any one who has been con-
fronted with the difficult task of Dur
chasing from farmers mated pairs Of
q certain type.
Breed characteristics in pure bred or
grade mares signify impressive ances-
try and prepotency. Femininity of ex-
preston and conformation is an indi-
cation of good breeding qualities.

Style, good disposition, quality, clean
fiat bone, concave, open feet, strong
constitution, good proportions, deep
roomy barrel; width across the hips
denoting large pelvic arch, and wen
developed vulva and teats are quail
ties especially desired in breeding
mares. An inspection of the colts the
mare produces is the best evidence of
her worth as a brood mare. The length
Of usefulness as producers varies great
ly with different mares. Some will
produce excellent colts when twenty
five years of age, but if they produce
until they are fifteen years old they
do very well. Much depends on the
individuals and the way they are han
died. Shy breeding mares are general
ly improbable producers.
Unsound horses lose breeders much
money, consequently it is of great i'm
portance that all horses reared should
be as sound as possible. Horses be-
come unsound because the tissue OF
the structure, or both, at a particular
point is weak, or else the strain exert
ed on the part is greater than the best
tissue and the best conformation could
stand. Of course If bad conformation
exists it is agreed that animals thus
built should not be used for breeding
purposes whether they are sound OF

Time is the test of truth. And Doan S
kidney Pills have stood the test in
Mount Holly. No Mount Holly resi-
dent who suffers backache, or annoy
ing urinary ills can remain unconvinced
by this twice-told testimony.
Mrs Georginia Kinsler, 70 Pine street
Mount Holly, says: Ever since was

trouble which grew worse ever year.

serve is made oy using barberry
Juice as prepared for Jelly to cook
pears In. If the pears are hard they
should be cooked until they can easily
be pieced with a straw, then using a
pint Of barberry Juice, half D pint OF
water pears were cooked In and a
pound OF sugar. Add as many pears as
the liquid win hold without burning
and cook slowly until the pears are a
rich red color. The pears should be
prepared the same as for canning.
Ounce and Pear Preserve.-Pare

eighth pieces. Just cover with hot wa

SPRAY THE CATTLE.
Cows Must Be Protected From Flies
to Keen Up Milk Production.

Cows Must Be Protected From Flies
to Keep Up Milk Production.
The season Of the fly pests which
make life miserable for stock during
the summer is on. Horse flies, deer
flies, bot flies, horn flies, stable flies and
many others unite to cause large part
of the annual decrease In the milk flow
during the hot season.
The sustained production of milk is
well known to depend largely on the
comfort and contentment Of the dairy
COW. Flies not only cause direct loss
of blood and poisoning from their bites,
but also keep stock from feeding prop
erly. The loss of milk from this cause
is one of the serious problems that
face the dairy farmer
Protect the milking stock, at least, by
spraying with one Of the prepared
sprays on the market or write to the
state agricultural department for in
formation on homemade fly repellents.
The prevailing cost Of feeds warrants
special efforts to keep up the milk flow
while cows are on pasture.

oANNINa VEGETABLES.

DAMNED PUMPKIN OR SQUASH.
" Pumpkin and squash may be
steamed and canned IN the same
way as summer squash. Cut the vege-
table into small blocks, pack in the
Jars and cover with water, add a tea
spoonful of salt to each quart and ster-
nize. It is sometimes preferable with
this vegetable, however, to pare of the
skin, boil or steam until thoroughly
done, mash them and then pack In Jars
and sterilize. If canned In the latter
way It Is advisable to steam them for
an hour and half instead of an hour
on each Of three days, as the heat pen
etrates the Jar very slowly. 1t is abso-
lntely necessary that the interior Of the
Jar should reach the temperature of
boiling water. A jar will usually hold
about twice as much of the cooked veg
etable as it win Of the uncooked. The
process of boiling upon successive days
is the one that is always employed In
scientific work and Is much to be pre-
ferred.
Canned Peppers.-Wash the red pep
pers in cold water, cut slice from the
stem end Of each and remove seeds;
then cut In one-fourth inch strips by
working around and around the pep
pers, using pair of scissors. Cover
with boiling water, let stand three
minutes, drain and plunge into ice wa
ter to cover, again drain and pack SOL
idly into pint Jars. To one quart of
vinegar add two cupfuls of sugar.
Bring to the boiling point and boil if
teen minutes, pour over the peppers to
overflow the Jars, put on new rubbers
and cover and store in cold place.

Canned Peas, String Beans. Corn or
Tomatoes.-Do you do up peas, string
beans, corn and tomAtoess A good
fule fs 70 pick over beans, cut off the
ends and remove the strings. Merely
look over the peas after Smelling. Put
them In fresh, cold water till they are
well covered and bring them to a boil.
Let them simmer two minutes, pour
of the water and drain them in q col
ander. Measure them with quart
cup as you return them to the kettle,
and to each quart add teaspoonful of
salt and one Of sugar. To four quarts
put In o level teaspoonful Of baking
soda. Cover with boiling water and
cook gently until the vegetables are
tender. This will depend upon the
amount you have in the kettle. Then
put them in glass jars with a little
liquid in each, exactly as you do can
ned fruit and put on tight covers with
rubbers.
Corn Canned on Cob.-Clean corn as
for boiling, pack In one-haf gallon
Jars. I'LL with cold water to overflow
