Season with pepper and salt to taste, Now Ben he loved a protty maid, Her pame was Nelly Gray ; 80 he went to pay her his devours, When he devoured his pay. But when he called on Nellie Gray She made him quites sooff ; And when she saw his wooden legs, A pint to a quart may be added to the food, Then the real training should begin. ‘The colt should be led by the halter first; then after it has been ‘taught to ead well, a bridle with a smooth bit should be used, and after this has become familiar a harness made for the purpose should be put on it, and the colt taught to draw a light cart or sled. Gradually it may be used to a saddle and to being by a; small boy of light weight. During all’ this time the colt should be tamed and made docile by constant handling and feeding from the hand a little grain, salt or sugar, so that it will come when called and evince no fear of the owner, A horse thus trained will never Le vicious nor troublesome unless spoiled afterward, ORCHARD AND FRUIT GARDEN. — Winter Apples.—Many f{ruit-growers find, when their orchards come into bearing, that they have planted too mauy varieties which ripen at the same time. It is a mistake to set many new varieties In an orchard planted for profit. There are enough of well tested marketable kinds. Any ex- perimental planting should be done on a small seale, A large number of kinds, ripening at the same period, will result | in having numerous small lots, At : first there will not be enough of some | kinds te fill a barrel; two kinds should | never be mixed in one barrel, and these fruits must be used at bome. For late | apples we may have varieties of the | colors, red, yellow and green. The re- | tailer knows that the color of a fruit | affects its sale. Trees will be selected | and ordered this fall, and these points | should be borne in mind, as they will | have an influence upon the ultimate | success of the orchard, In gathering | apples, pick and handle them gently. Late Pears.—There are but few late pears that are profitable, because the public are not acquamted with the Anjou, Clairgezu, and a few others, | Carefully selected and packed in boxes | Noe but a single layer, these may | often be profitably disposed of at the confectionery and the fancy fruit stores, Plantmg of Trees, both fruit and or- namental, grapevines, etc., may con- tinue as the weather will allow and the 80il is in proper condition. Pruning. —I1f orchard trees have been | properly cared for from the first, there | will be bat little pruning needed, and it matters not much at what time It is done. Grapevines, currants and goose- berries may be pruned soon after the leaves Lave fallen. Blackberries and raspberries should be pruned by cutting out the old canes as soon as the fruit is gathered, Live Stock NOTES, — Shelter in Fas- ture.—We have often urged the need, excessive heat of the sun, acter, with a roof and sides, it will break the force of a driving storm. The cold storms at this season are especially injurious to young animals, Horses should tome into winter quar- extra food, Many continue to turn out their horses until mneh later than this, them much discomfort, when caught out In a driving storm.

Poultry. —Eat or otherwise dispose of old stock, and select good layers and give them warm winter quarters and abundant food. Dox’r vAIL to utilize all the tumip tops the garden affords, They make fine chicken feed. Either throw them on the ground, turnips and all, for the chickens to pick at, or tie them in bunches with a coarse string that will pot cut, and weight them down with a rock. The turnips themselves, if cook- ed, mashed and mixed with bran and shorts, make excellent feed for laying hens and growing chicks, Never whip a horse when he 1s frightened or nervous, or try to force it up to the object that bas caused the alarm; draw in on the reins, suddenly speak out with assurance that you are not afraid, then turn the animal a little way from the unpleasant sight and bud it go. A blow of a whip upon a frigh- tened horse gives it double cause for violent action, iT 1Bof no use to expect to make money in the chicken business unless you are willing to watch every want of the fowls; unless you are willing to work early and late; and, unless you are fond of poultry.
