The Shetland Pony.
As a good deal of misconception ex
fats as to what constitutes a true Shet
land pony, we give the fallowing de
scription of the little animal by Sir
Walter Gilbey, the eminent breeder
of and authority on horses :
"The height of the pure Shetland
is about ten hands (forty inches),
and this eizo may be taken as a fair
average, although many exceed this
standard, and numbers are as small as
nine hands ; some even may be found
measuring not more than eight hands
or thirty-two inches.
"The Shetland pony is docile, easily
trained to domestic use when kindly
treated, and being hardy and muscu
lar, is capable, of enduring niuoh
drudgery. Having good feet it is
surefooted when climbing mountains,
at the same time sagacious in making
its way through swamps and bogs.
"It varies in color from bay, brown
and dun to dullish black, and some
time these colors are mixed with white,
while a few specimens may be found
which are pure white or piebald.
Added to this these ponies have coats
of long hair, which becomes thicker
and gets matted npou them during
the cool and boisterous weather. "

HOW TO FATTEN POl'MHY.
An experiment has lately been tried
of feeding gceao with turnips, cut in
small pieces like dine, but less in tire,
and put into a trough of water; with
this food alone the effect was, that six
gerse, each when lean, weighing only
niue pound, actually gained twenty
pound each in about three weeks fat
tening. Malt is an excellent food for
geese and turkeys; grains are pre
ferred for the sake of economy, nnless
for immediate and rapid fattening;
the grains should be boiled afreBh.
Other cheap articles for fattening are
oatmeal and treacle, barley meal and
milk, boiled oats and ground malt.
Corn before given to fowls should
always be clashed and soaked in water.
The food will thus go further, and it
will help digestiou. Hens fed thus
have been known to lay during the
whole of the winter, months. Home

A writer in the Agricultural Gazette
of New South Wa'es says the crickets
were very numerous in his orchard a
few years ago, but he turned in about
150 pigs, mostly young ones, that
quickly attacked the crickets and their
larvte, and completely exterminated
them, and rapidly grew fat by feeding
upon them. Those who have fields
infested by these or by the cut worm
will do well to bear this iu mind. He
tried to kill it out by hoeing, but his
efforts proved a failure, tending rather
to increase its growth.- Then he en
closed a part of it and put on about
200 fowl, feeding them on corn night
and morning for a few days, then re
moving them to a new location. He
says, "Nothing but the humble, lowly
but cheerful grass could withstand the
continual henpecking." Many other
weeds might be destroyed in this way,
though some might require more than
a few days treatment. Boston Cul

SALT HACKS MILK,
Experiments have recentlv been
made to ascertain whether the giving
of salt to dairy cows has inr direct
bearing on the supply of milk, and
the results have been of a character
which will be surprising to manv who
attach little importance to providing
salt for their cattle, says the Journal
of Agriculture. Salt they mini have
in some form or another, and if it is
supplied to them in suitable quantities
and ways they will take sufieient and
no more for their own benefit. For
about a month, from June 20 to July
18, latt year, three cows were kent
without calt ; and the milk from each
weighed twice daily from the 4th to
the 18th of July, when they gave 454
pounds. From July 18 to August 1
the same cows received four ounces of
salt each, and during that time the
milk showed an increase of 100 pounds,
the weight being 564 pounds. From
this experiment it appears that there
was a considerable train, which would
pay admirably any one to keep his
iuck wen supplied witn salt, and it
may also bo added as another cood
custom to follow to keep plenty of
fresh water whore it can be always ac
cessible. PASTTRE K0R SWIXB.

'rilK OT.U M RAWllERBT BED.
As p. general rule, says the Massa
i'hu::eltn Ploughmen, it is no douiit
more profitable to set new strawberry
beds every sptiutj and to plow under
tho old bel after beariug one crop.
Cut v.-uerp no fiosh plants have beeu
put in. it in u question of renovate or
no berries.
Morci-vcr, on some haul of a firm,
'hijvy nutiire, the weeds, and prnsn do
not wur!: iii mi easily si with lighter
fcviU, nor dj lu plauti weaktu and
overcrowd themselves by growing
multitude of rooted runners.
If such natural strawberry soils are
set to a variety which makes compar
atively few runners, like the Charles
Downing or Bubacb, a bed can be
made to last two years, and we have
known a bed of Downings six years
old to bear a big lot of fruit, although
the berries ran docidodly small. On
moist, loamy soils, naturally prime
grass lands, it is very difficult to do
anything with an old berry patch.
Still, the writer saw a good-sized
bed of Bubachs near Boston reoently
which were bearing good second
crop on just such land. The owner
had mulched the rows thickly just
before the first crop, and as the ground
had been thoroughly weeded, and
contained no grass roots, it remained
pretty clean, although no further
work was done upon it. This ceosou
it had become rather grassy among
the plants, yet not so much so but
that plenty of good big berries were
gathered.
Very few old beds are in such good
Bhape as was this one. Some growers
practise mowing and burning over the
bed right after the last picking. The
burning destroys blight, insects and
somo kinds f weeds, but the straw
berry plants will start again with
vigorous green leaves. Then a ridge
is plowed up in tho centre between
the rows, plowing from the rows so as
to leave a strip of plants about a foot
wide, with a gutter on each side.
Next take a sharp hoe, or better, a
wide-bladed mattock or bog hoe, and
clean out the weeds and grass in the
rows of plants left. Afterward culti
vate the ridge nntil the gutters are
filled and the field is level. Apply
plenty of fertilizer or any manure
without weed seeds. The plants will
spread somewhat into the fresh
ground, and with frequent hoeings till
freezing time, a fair crop may be ex
pected next year.
FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.
Ripening cream well before chnrn
ing develops flavor and tenders churn
ing easier.
Einbden, White China, and Tou
louse are among the best breeds of
geese to raise.
Xo ventilation is as injurious to
poultry as draught! ; pure air is es
sential to health.
In case of fire in stables, pnt a sad
dle on your horse and you can lead him
ont without difficulty.
Bones placed in fresh horse manure
soon soften and crumble, and soon be
come ready for plant food.
When poultry diarrhoea is caused by
cold or damp quarters no internal
treatment will cause a cure.
Eggs for hatching should be Gath
ered daily, handled carofully, and
stored in a cool, dry place.
With Brahma, especially, better re
sults are secured by limiting the num
ber ol liens to the roosters.
As young chickens have very small
crops they need feeding every two or
inree nours during tne day.
Morphine given to mares when in
milk poisons the latter and may cause
me aeatu ol tne suckling foal.
Horses are very fond of sugar, and
very frequently a lump of it would be
found much better than the whip.
Give the poultry a good range when
poss ble ; the coop and surroundings
get tiresome when confined too closely.
In molding butter scald the mold
first and then dip the print into cold
water. The butter then comes out iu
nice firm cakes.
Grade the dressed poultry before
sending to market; a strictly choice
article brings the top prices, but an
inferior article never does.
Good feed and osre will improve oom
mon stock, but the surer and quicker
way is to introduce new and better
blood. Try a combination of the two
methods.
As soon as the colts in pasture be
gin to fall oft in flesh from flchtinc
flies, place them in darkened stables
during the day and allow them to run
out at night
Some one has said : "The shepherds
who raise free wool on one side of the
fence and dogs on the other are
bound to make a fuss, and who can
blame them."
Geese do not arrive at maturity un
til their third year, but are long
lived. When full-grown, geese will
weigh from twelve to eighteen pounds
when dressed.
The man who allows his farm ma
chinery when not in use, to stand in
the sun and rain is losing money fast.
Have an implement house large enough
to drive into.
The proper time to out clover ir
when the heads are all in blossom. If
cut too esrly it is watery and if left
until tho heads are brown the seoond
growth will be checked.
The effort to obtain a good yield
from a run-down farm, and to im
prove its condition at the same time,
will prove a failure. First buildup;
the good crops will come iu their own
good time.
Where farmers permit fowls to shift
for themselves they are often a nuis
ance. Such men are right iu declar
ing that poultry don't pay. It is a
self-evident fact, so far as they are
concerned.
Good crops grown from the land,
fed to good stock upon the land, and
the by-products returned to the land
with due care, will make better land,
bigger crops and enable the feeding
of more stock.
The dairy farmer finds that the in
tensive sy.tein of culture which he
must follow enables him to improve
the fertility of his soil so that he can
raise larger crops and get better re

QUICK DRYING FOR 8ILK1.
Quick drying is thj best method for
silk garments. An authority on this
subject says: "Keep on hand a dozen
bits of steel au inch and a quarter
square and eighteen inches long. Ex
actly midway screw in a good-sized
hook. In use, hang a shirt or pair of
drawers over a strip, and button the
neck or waistband, then catch the
hook over your line. Pull the gar
ment iu shape, and leave it to dry.
The hooks need not be more than six
inches apart on the line, thus enabling
you to dry half a dozen gar nents in
less space than is otherwise required
for one. Also, by the use of these
strips and hooks, it is uossibla
each garment in shape and to avoid

When on August 10, 1792, the Jaco
bins dictated their terms at Taris for
a national convention, Lafayette, who
was in command of the army of the
frontier.and several of his generalo Mi
rers quitted tho French army iu disgust.
They wero seized by tho King of Prus
sia, from his custody transferred to
that of Austria, and long confined in
tho costlo of Olmutz in Moravia. Al
though each of the prisoners was kept
solitary, yet their apartments were so
arranged thnt they wero all within
.hearing of each other when standing
at tho "windows of their respective,
chambers. To improve this advantage
they thought of tho following ulati :
There was at Paris a number of tunes
called airs of tho Pout Neuf, or those
popular ballads that were sung nt the
corners of the streets and other pub
lic places. Tho words belonging to
these airs were so well known that to
strike np a few of tho notes was to re
call to memory tho wcrds that accom
panied them. By this means tho cap
tives nt Olmutz gradually composed
for themselves a vocabulary by whis
tling these notes at their windows,
and thiB vocabulary after a short time
became so complete and even compre
hensive that even two or three notes
from each formed their alphabet and
effected their intercourse. By this
means they -communicated news to
each other concerning their families,
the progress of the war, etc., and
when, by good fortune one of them
had proonred a gazette, he whistled
the contents of it to his partners in
captivity. The commandant of the
fortress was constantly informed of
these unaccountable concerts. Ho
listened, ho sot spies, but the wholo
thing being a language of convention
tho most practised magician would
have failed in detecting the intention
and real expression of the notes heard.
