WEDNESDAY MORNING Oct. 27, '69,
iniproviug our Horses.
It will scarcely be denied that there
is much room for improvement in our 1
stock of horses used for general par- i
poses: Pennsylvania has never been I
celebrated for superior stock in a good I
sense. We do not mean by this sim- I
ply fast horses, but horses of charac
ter, equally good for the farm, the
team or the road. Full blooded ani
mals are usually too light for farming
and teaming purposes, while many—
very large proportion—of those used
for these purposes are too heavy,
clumsy and hard keeping. Is not this
the general impression of intelligent
'Armen? We think it is.
We find as a rule, though there are
frequent exceptions to it, that the im
ported cattle and sheep for our farms
are not so well adapted to the sub
stantial interests of the farmer, as ju
dicious crossing with Mir best native
breeds, It is so 'with horses in an
tVen stronger sense. Within a year
we have seen, in different parts of
Pennsylvania, very fine horses, the
product of crossing with the best
mares selected from common country
stock. And-this is the point we de
sire to urge upon our farmers, and in
vite it to their particular attention.—
We think it can be said with truth,
that there is no class of men in our
community_ who enjoy a fine horse
more decidedly than our farmers; and
this enjoyment is greatly enhanced
when the animal is the product of
their own stables.
A correspondent has oecasionally dis
eussed in our columns the propriety
and profit of the propogating superior
stock upon our farms. both in horses
and cattle, showing that it costs no
more to care or feed to raise a supe
rior than inferior animal. The only
difference is in the first colt, which is
a matter of consideration compared to
the advance price—sometimes two or
three times the amount—which could
be obtained for the common animal,
to say nothing of the feeling of pride
involved in the matter.
In our State, and.especially in the
eastern portion of it, .there are thous
ands of excellent mares, which would
produce from a well-chosen thorough
bred stallion, a class of animals pecu
liarly adapted to this region, embrac
ing action, strength, beauty and do
cility—qualities which most assured
ly ought to recommend themselves to
every farmer who feels a pride in his
occupation which in its nobility has
equal upon the face of the globe.
This is a question worthy the con
sideration of all farmers.— German
town Telegraph.
Stable Windows
Diseases of the eye in horses may,
in many cases, be traced to the wretch
ed custom ofconfining animals in dark
stables. Any one who has been for
some time in a dark room, knows what
the effect is, of coming suddenly out
into the bright sunlight. The horse
is no less sensitive. Bring him sud
denly out and you notice that he stum
bles against almost everything that is
in his way, and steps with the utmost
uncertainty. This blundersng is not
the fault of the poor beast, but of his
owner. The eye must gradually be
come accustomed to the change. The
effect of the common mode of treat
ment cannot fail eventually to be dis
astrous to the eyesight. The deten
tion in dark stables must have a dele
terious influence upon the optic nerve,
by weakening it. On return he feels
it also. Objects are reflected upon a
dull surface and they are not clearly
discerned. The master wonders what
is the matter. His horse used to be
sure of foot, but now he stumbles en
tirely too frequently for his credit in
the market. He used to be very gen
tle and could be warrented as altogeth
er safe, but now he shies so abomina
ble that several times he has very
nearly upset the carriage, and the
ladies of the house are afraid of him.
He is losing character, and rapidly
getting a bad name, when the poor
brute is as deserving of confidence as
ever.. The animal would in fact be
safer with absolute blindness than
with imperfect vision, for it is con
stantly alarmed by objects which are
seen indistinctly, whereas, in the for
mer case, it trusts entirely to the
bridle. Farmers will do well to make
a note of this, and let their horses
have light.

It is much betterto buy only a few
acres of good land at a high price than
to buy a large farm of run down land
at a low price. It is also much better
for an ordinary farmer' to haite- a small
farm than a large one, Because if he

a large one, be will make More Motley
than if he was totapolled to matt&
the same manure on large farm.
As a rule, buy only a little land at
first, Don't spend all your money for
the land; leave some for the purpise
of buying manure. In this way you
will in a few years be able to buy more
land if you want it:

ttlayey,and hard to get at in the spring
on account of the moisture it contains.
and it will be almost impossible to
work to advantage at any time. A
moderate sandy soil is probably the
best for all practical purpose.
The best time to buy land is proba
bly during the month of June. The
crops are then growing, and an esti
mate may be made of the ability of
the land to produce well..
If in ordinary year the wheat has a
good growth, and good well filled
cads, and a good green collor, and
does not look yellow and puny, one
may be sure that he has lighted on a

cause; if there is a poor growth of

bare, a man would better keep his

I ying . Up Horses.
correspondent of the German
town Telegraph severely condemns the
practice indulged by too many of
"tying up" horses to their stalls so
closely that they cannot lie down and
take rest like other animals. The evil
and down -right cruelty of this prac
tice must be obvious. Think of a
poor horse hard di iven or worked all
day, compelled to stand on his legs all
night without a bit of genuine rest.—
This "tying up," remarks the writer,
"is resorted to (by grooms as a gen
eral thing) to prevent the animal
from lying down and thereby becom
ing dirty, which oftimes necessitates
those gentlemen to an extra using of
the curry comb and brush, a thing ob
jectionable to lazy but not to consid
erate and humane men.
"Let horses when put in the stalls
have sufficient length to their halters
that they may if they choose lie down,
one of the best of good effects from
this treatment is that one will rarely
ever see a horse so treated sprung in
the knees. 'Tis true that some horses
are not addicted to the good habit of
lying down, and only at night when
all is quiet will they seek rest; but this
is because at some time those about
them have disturbed them at or pre
vented them from lying down by
shortening their baiter, or. to use a
technical term, "tying them up." It
is not claimed that by letting a horse
lie down when be chooses that he will
be cured of sprung-knees, because a
sprung horse is incurable ; but it is
claimed that if he is at all inclined to
be weak in those parts, such rest will
notthen even save them.
Get An Early Breakfast.
A bad custom prevalent in many
families, especially among farmers, of
working an hour or two before break
fast. attending to chores hoeing in
the garden, cutting wood, mowing,
ect. This is convenient on many ac
counts, but not conducive to health.
The prevalent opinion is, that the
morning air is the purest and most
healthy and bracing; but the con
trary is the fact. AG no hour is the air
more filled with dampness, fogs and
miasmas than about sunrise. The
heat of the sun gradually dissipates
these miasmatic influences as the day
advances. An early meal braces up
the system against these external in
flumes. Every one who knows the
languor and faintness often-experien
ced for the first hour in the morning,
and that it is increased by exercise
and the Want of food, Probably the
best custom would be,to furnish every
member of the family especially those
who labor out of doors, a cup of warm
coffee, well mixed. immediately after
rising from bed. Then let him attend
to chores, or mowing, hoeing, ect.,
for an hour or two,while the teams are
feeding and the breakfast preparing:.

"GRANDFATHERS' STOVE."
Our grandfather's stove, what a fun:Ly old
thing,
So deep, so wide and so tall;
Now the people would say, who are stylish
and gay,
I t was only a hole in the wall."
It matters not what, it was pleasant to see.
When night's mantle was flung over all;
Grandfather take down his good book and
read
By the light from the hole in the wall.
As the sturdy young men rolled in the great
legs,
They would laugh at each wintry squall,
Whilst grandma would sit on her old chair
and knit
By the light from the whole in the wall.
The girls then wore home spun, and so did
their beaux's,
For pride was a principle small;
And courting was done and hearts have
been won
By the light from the hole in the wail.
The neighbors were friendly wherever they'd
meet,
With a word of true kindness for all;
And joy was complete to hear voices so sweet
Ring round that old hole in the wall
In those days we know, folks oared not for
show,
Of improvements knew nothing at all ;
But 'twas really no joke, when great clouds
of smoke
Rushed out from the hole in the wall.
But those days are now o'er, we shall know
them no more,
And all those old fashions have flown;
Whilst the solemn and gay are coming each
day
To purchase the famous "OLD Holm."
Coming not only in couples, but in scores,
as hundreds of good and wise men and
women have done before, to look — upon this
magnificent stove, which is acknowledged to
be the best cooking stove of the age. Re
