weight Into lils collar, and Is hindered from
giving his body that position which is the
moat natural nnd effective. He lias to pull
hy tho strength of his muscle only; the
weight of his body is lost, and so much
pulling strength thrown away, whllo what
remains Is exerted at n great expenditure 01
tho horse's power and health, to say nothing
of his comfort. Tlio cnnsjojiicnco Is that his
limbs and muscles becomo strained and dis
torted, his knees aro boived forward and his
locks backward. If a man pulls a load by
n strap across his shoulders, ho bends his
bead and chest forward, nnd relieves his
letrs; a horse does the samo when ho can, and
ri'i .lit always to bo allowed to do so. In

out and punished the horao for his own
error." The samo writer enlarges also, of
c mrse, upon tho inlluence of tho tight check
rdii lu straining the muscles of the horse's
nock, thus tiring him out and making liim
rcstlos. J'o declares that tlio horse will
sometimes rest the weight of his head on the
rein, strctchln? his mouth, to escapo the
other torment, and that nianv splendid horses
incessantly toss their heads and champ their
imutlis into a foam from tho intolerable un
chines, of llie tight check rein.
How to Miniagn Yeans Pigs.
Until young pigs aro a week old, wo ex
pect tlio sow to furnish all the food tho pigs
require, for unless she can do so sho is not
tit to bo a breeder. And hero I would say
something about the selection of a good
breeding sow. First select tho best, as fai
ns can be judged from outward appearances.
with :i cood sound constitution. When the
xjw hns tho first litter, if .she throws good
pigs, sound and lively, and can furnish a
good flow of milk, then she should lie kor
as a breeder; if sho can not suckle her young
nronerlv. cannot supply enough milk to
keep the young porkers in good, healthy
conditioner the iirst week at least, then she
should bo discarded. If this were generally
observed wo would have much better swine
than wo now have.
When the young pigs arc about a week old,
have a small or low trougii put wliero the
littlo pigs cau get to it at aH times, yet out
of reach or tho old sow. Tho young pigs
will soon learn to eat out of it, and thus
lielp fatten themselves and relieve tlio moth
er. Wo first give skim milk, after which
sour or thick milk is given. The trough
should be kept well supplied, so the pigs
can have as much and as often as tiicy wish.
Tills is the true way to feed a pig, and the
sooner begun the more profitable.
As to tho ago to wean pigs, many breeders
lifl'wr, feomn waving not until eight weeks,
while others wean them at four weeks. We
have weaned them at four weeks with no
bad results', but think six weeks is better.
Lire Slock Journal,
l'lougliiug iiji Haw Soil.
Wo sometimes hear farmers remark that,
ploughing deep, they get less grain; that,
bringing up the new mellow soil, their crops
suffer. It would bo very strange if this was
not the case; for this soil, even if ever so
mellow, is raw, jiut like manure when it is
green or long. It is not yet converted or
changed into plant-food. It needs just what
tho long manuro needs to be changed by
the heat and tho air that is, decomposed
or rotted.
When tho top-soil is less fertilo than it
used to be when tho land was first tilled,
you may rest assured that.this under soil is
always better than the upper soil because
tho upper has deteriorated, while tho under
lias not, but rather improved.
&,lt is, thcrclore, inadvisable, nay suicidal in
soma soils, to turu up deeply tho under
ground in tho spring or in the fall at sowing
time. Tho cold cheerless ground will not
help tho grain, nnd were it not for tho other
aoil mixed with it, an almost total failure
would be tho result.
But turn it up in the fall, and let tho
frost and tho elements tako hold of it, nnd
you have another soil ; it is turned into ma
nure, a good part of it. A little lime mixed
with it, scattered and harrowed in, or manure,
or both, would faciliatate the process. In
tho spring sow, either with or without anoth
er ploughing, and you will fmd no moro oc
casion to complain. We have great fertility
to draw upon from below, but it requires
managing. Uniting l'ot.
How to Keep Sweet l'otntoe.
Too nuestioii.m to sizo of bins is not so
particular, as J liavo kept them equally as
well from a barrel to l.COO baskets in one
bulk. It la neccosary that the collar bhould
be ii ell ventilated, especially from four to
tls weeks after storing, whilo undergoing
their sweats, avoiding too much direct dralt.
Porno varieties nro much hardier than others.
The Short Nansemond variety is as hardy ns
any. It is very desirable to keep tho cellars
lit ouo temperature. I generally separate
iny bins with common, inch boards. Ono
foot of air spaco between tho potatoes nnd
ceiling is sufficient for the circulation of air.
I would recommend that tho thermometer
never go above 70 degrees nor below 00 de
grees, between CO and 70 degrees proper.
I built n preserving house, with cellar below
and room ubovo, with bins on each sldo of
tho cntranco to hold from 200 to 500 baskets,
aud left spaco next to tho wall to enable ono
to ci around; tho epnea to continuo iir
through thotloorand aiound thoupperroom,
so that tho heat and air might circulntefrom
tho room below to tho ono above. Tho
loom above Bhould lie brick-paved nnd
plastered. This building had a wind-break
on tho north tide, of eight feet wide nnd tho
Ient"t!i of tho house. In cold weather tho
potato bins should bo tight nil nround, rest
on tho ground and floor with draw under
aud next to tho wall, with straw around
thrin. For few weeks nlto housing let
the windows be left open, with wire screens
In them, to protect ngInt rata and mice.
It is very important that the pouiloett to be
hrnsed be selected from u Jilgli ground n
possible, mid gathered iuimediatcdy from 'he
tln'r.eor plow. I once put 1,000 baket
J u mi lei -horn in one bulk, and as they
wc put In J et h ktove on a board on top ol
the potatoes, nnd in that way dried off the
Mveataa Jtroe,niid took them out ttt early

A (WTMUltX FAIRY TAMJ
( Qmtinutd.)
Skimp departed with the money, leavlnp
tho broker delighted to havo obtained the
chain so cheaply.
Fairies havo no need of real money, rn
Skimp hid hers by tho steps of n cathedral,
wliero a good man found it nnd distributed
tho gold to tho poor, which tho broker'nevcr
would hnvc done.
Thnt night n large rat, with bright eyes
like two beads, crept Into tho chamber where
tho broker slept, lie had tho chain inn
stout oak box beneath tho bed, and his door
was barred, ns ho feared robbers. Ho could
not keep out a rat, especially when that rat
was Madam Skimp.
Slio gnawed up a quantity of bank-notes,
which sho had adroitly slipped from between
tlio leaves of n pocket-book, to n soft pulp.
With this sho rolled two littlo balls, and
popped them Into the sleeper's cars,so that he
could hear nothing. Then sho attacked the
box under tho bed ; gnaw, gnaw, went her
sharp teeth until a tiny holo was made,
through which sho dragged tho dove chain,
and away sho went with it.
"That was well done," said Skimp, chang
ing into a hawk.
Wo must now return to Aunt Katrine's
nouse. Tho children nil grew up. Sophia, n
blooming maiden of eighteen, married a
wealthy mill-owner, nnd went nway.
Tho dove child was tall nnd fair in nppear
anci'. She had lung sinco outgrown the star
spangled robe and tiny shoes she first wore.
Tho duve mate had never returned to visit
her.
Otto did not mis the chain from tho hid
ing place, for soon after Aunt Katrine had
Inst it tlio cottage took fire from a smoking
chimney, and the wholo building was de
stroyed. Otto carried out tho furniture, but
lie supposed tho chain must have been lost
in the flames. Aunt Katrine still kept si
lent, but she was very kind to tho dovo child,
trying to repair the injury she had done her.
"After all, sho is better off here in a Uliris-
tian home," thought poor Aunt Katrine ; and
then sho looked at tho spangled dress, won
dprinsr where tho dovo maiden really had
lived.
Otto had grown to be a handsome young
man. lie was faithful, honest and mdustrp
ous, and rebuilt tlio cottage with his own
hands. Still ho must always havo his own
n ay. Ho wished to marry tlio dovo maiden.
Aunt Katrine thought the girl could not do
better: after she died thero would be no ono
left to care for her unless sho married Otto.
So the. dovo maiden went into the new cot
tage as Otto's wife, although she wept many
tears that this should bo her lot instead of
liuding her dove companion once more.
Aunt Katrine still scrubbed and polished,
for in that lay her chief happiness, and the
dove maiden was too delicate for buch hard
work. One fine morning tho good aunt put
on her spectacles to admire a pretty baby
which lay in the cradle, as white as milk,
with sapphiro eyes. Otto mado a husband
good enough, and ho was proud of his wife
and child, but ho was surly and ill-tempered
if any little matter went wrong, even with
them. Tho dove maiden was ;now cheerful
and happy; she called the child Snowdrop,
and they gathered flowers together in tho
meadow, whilo Aunt Katrino scrubbed.
When the littlo girl had grown sufficiently
large she was dressed in the star-spangled
robe, shoe3, and silver cap which her mother
had worn before her. Aunt Katrino was
very much pleased with Snowdrop in this
becoming costume. Tho dovo maiden led
her to tho meadow, where she loved to sit
near tho spot where sho was captured. Tho
Snyder3 had never heard a word of her sto
ry, but now she decided to tell it to Snow
drop, who listened with bright, intelligent
eyes.
i dreamed about my sister iasi nigui,
sho said, "l'erhaps if we wait patiently here
she will come and pay lis a visit."
"Hut how will she come? ' asked Snow
drop.
:ho will ny Here wltti lier Deautnul whilo
wings, just as I did,"rcturned the dovo mai
den, witn a sigh. "Attend, my child, whilo
I tell you about your grandfather and rela
tives in tho East. The King of Selgrobia is
my father. He has a brilliant court thous
ands of miles away from here, whero the
palm-trees grow. I have a brother who is a
Crown Prince, and will some time be King,
My sister and I were the only daughtcrs,and
wo were twins. We wero born with littlo
gold chains about our necks, studded with
jewels, and clasped with a diamond button.
These were gifts of the fairy king at our
birth, and would enable us to become doves
whenever wo wished to fly away. Tnc
Queen, our mother, considered this a very
dangerous gift; and, fearing v.-e would avail
ourselves of the chance thus granted us, she
carefully hid away the two chains in a cas
ket. We were brought up in the palace, yet
seldom visited the state apartments. Ah,
that was a happy life 1 Wo played in roso
gardens with our maids, and bathed in mm-
bie fountains.
"One day there was a grand reception, in
which a Prince of F.thiopia, black as ebony,
nnd wearing a turban of yellow satin wound
with chains of pearls, was presented to tho
King, The Crown Prince, our brother, was
present at tho ceremony ; but we were too
young, although our maids ran away to peep
through the lattice at the wonderful stranger.
Left alone, wo rambled into our mother's
magnificent apartments, and began to exam
ino every rare, costly pieco of furniture with
childish curiosity. Presently we found a
casket In nu alcove which contained our
chains, and wo at onco recognized tho fairy
gum.
'"LeUis go out on fhobalcony'urgcd my
sister.
"So wo stepped out, disobcyiug our moth
er, and tried our wings as doves. We flew
into the audience ball, whero the King sat In
royal robes, and that was tho last time I ever
saw him. Wo sped up into the clear sky,
and after a journey of mnny days reached
this place. It is a cld regiou after my
home."
As tho mother ceased cpeaking, the dovo
sister came darting down to visit them. Tho
dovo maiden caressed tho bird, shedding
warm tears of loy upon ita snowy feathers.
and even Snowdrop stroked it with her fat
littlo hands.
"I havo been to the fairy king," said tho
dove. "He says that the workman who
mado tho chain is dead, and the art died
witli him, so we can never have another,
The fairy sent this pearl ring to your daugh
ter. No ouo cau tako it from her finger, and
it-will irrant her wishes."
The mother and child returned to their
humble home, wliero Otto no sooner saw tho
ptarl ring than lie tried to wrench It oil; but
tlio ring held firmly as aleel.
Tho viiluo of the ptarl would make mo a
rlrh man. and I will have it." ho scolded
When Aunt Katrino saw tho ring sho was
inn- li oxcltbd, wishing to know where it
Minn from: and littlo Snowdrop told her
in it a beautiful dovo brought it from the
Mtiiu. Then tho old lady told tho dove mat
